Moss Removal
How Moss Damages a Roof over Time
Moss usually starts in the shaded gaps where tiles or slates overlap, often on north-facing slopes or beneath trees. As the cushions thicken they lift the bottom edges of the covering, letting wind-driven rain creep underneath, and their roots hold moisture in the joints long after the rest of the roof has dried. Left for several seasons, heavy growth can also choke valleys and send clumps into the gutters with every storm.
TNR removes moss from tiled and slate roofs on homes and commercial buildings across Hertfordshire, Hampshire and Surrey. Depending on the covering and how deep-rooted the growth is, the moss is cleared from the surface and soft wash treatment may be used on the remaining moss, algae and lichen, with the method settled after a free inspection of your tiles or slates. Once the roof is clear, the moss that has dropped into the gutters is removed too, leaving the outlets running freely.

Why choose us
The TNR Approach to Roof Moss
Soft Wash Where It Suits
Soft wash treatment is available for coverings that suit it, treating moss, algae and lichen across the roof surface rather than only the visible clumps.
Damage Reported, Repairs Available
Moss can hide cracked tiles and slipped slates. As roofers, we report what we find and can quote for any roof repairs needed.
No Blocked Outlets Left Behind
The moss that falls during removal is cleared from the gutters and outlets before we leave, so rainwater can drain away freely.

Pricing
What Changes the Cost of Moss Removal
Moss removal is quoted after a free inspection, and the price mainly reflects these points.
- How thick and widespread the moss is, from light patches to cushions across whole slopes.
- Whether soft wash treatment is needed for algae and lichen as well as the moss itself.
- The covering, since slate, clay tiles and concrete tiles each call for a different level of care.
- The roof's height, pitch and access, including any conservatories or extensions underneath.
- How much moss has already collected in the gutters and valleys.
The work
From Inspection to a Moss-Free Roof
The main stages of the job, from the first inspection to the final check.
Identifying the Covering and Growth
We check whether the roof is concrete tile, clay tile or slate, how sound it is and how far the moss, algae and lichen have spread, then confirm the method in your quote.
Removing the Moss
Thick moss is cleared from the slopes, laps, valleys and ridges, working from the ridge downwards so material falls towards the gutters rather than under the courses.
Soft Wash Treatment Where Suitable
If soft wash treatment is part of the agreed method, it is applied to the cleared surface to treat what remains of the moss, algae and lichen.
Gutters Cleared and Work Reviewed
Fallen moss is lifted from the gutters, outlets and ground below, and we review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.
