Wash Rite offers a professional roof cleaning and washing service that is designed to get rid of moss and mould.
If your roof is covered in moss, mould or lichen, then there is no need to replace your roof. Just give us a call and one of our friendly staff will come out and provide a free quote and advice. Our roof treatment lasts up to 18 months and will extend the life of your paint whether it's a new paint job or an old one in bad condition. We are also able to wash and treat your roof without walking on your roof which will prevent damage.
Alternatively, we can provide a maintenance spraying service where we come and treat your roof every 12 months. This will kill the moss and mould spores before they're visible and before they start to damage your roof.
Why Should I Clean My Roof?
Most people are not aware of the structural damage moss, mould and lichen can do to your roof. If left untreated, it will start to degrade your roof due to the caustic nature of mould spores and the moss and mould will cause excess water absorption to concrete and clay tile roofs degrading them faster. This will make you need to replace your roof 10 years earlier than if it were treated. Excess moisture inside your roof will cause premature rotting of your timber frame and can cause mould to grow inside your roof space.
Roof Washing vs Roof Treatments
The main difference between roof treatment and roof washing is that roof treatment will take up to 3-4 months to get your roof clean after that treatment has been applied. This is because after the moss and mould are killed, it is then dependent on the wind and rain to wash away the decaying moss and mould which is much more gentle on your roof.
