Frequently Asked Questions
How much does roof cleaning cost in Bournemouth?
Roof cleaning in Bournemouth typically starts from £300–£500 for a standard 3-bedroom semi-detached property. Larger detached homes or those with heavy moss, lichen or algae growth may cost between £500–£900 or more. The final price depends on roof size, tile type, extent of biological growth and whether you add services such as roof coating, gutter cleaning or soffit cleaning. We always provide a free, written no-obligation quote with a full cost breakdown before any work begins no surprises, no hidden charges whatsoever.
Is soft wash roof cleaning safe for my roof tiles?
Yes completely safe for all common UK roof tile types including concrete tiles, clay tiles, natural slate, fibre cement and flat roofing materials. Our soft wash system uses very low water pressure significantly less than a garden hose combined with biodegradable biocide solutions that clean thoroughly without mechanical abrasion. This eliminates the risk of tile cracking, surface erosion, ridge tile displacement and moss spore spread that frequently occur with high-pressure roof washing. For older or more delicate roofs, soft washing is always our preferred and recommended approach.
How long does a professional roof clean last?
With our full 5-step process manual moss removal, soft washing and professional biocide treatment results typically last 3–5 years before notable regrowth occurs. North-facing roofs, roofs surrounded by trees or properties in heavily shaded areas may need treatment sooner. Adding a roof coating or tile sealer after the clean extends protection to 5–10 years while also improving waterproofing and UV resistance. We offer annual maintenance packages at a discounted rate for homeowners who want to keep their roof in optimal condition year-round.
Do you remove moss manually or just apply chemicals?
We do both manual removal first, then chemical treatment. Our process begins with thorough hand-scraping and removal of all visible moss, lichen and debris from every section of the roof. We then soft wash the surface to remove remaining biological matter, followed by professional biocide application that penetrates the tile and kills any remaining spores at the root. Chemical-only treatments leave dead moss sitting on the tile surface where it continues to block drainage. Our physical-first approach eliminates that entirely and delivers far longer-lasting results.
How much does gutter cleaning cost in Bournemouth?
Gutter cleaning in Bournemouth starts from £60–£80 for a terraced house and £90–£150 for semi-detached or detached properties. Three-storey buildings or gutters with heavy blockages may be slightly higher. We use SkyVac Pro vacuum gutter cleaning technology to clear gutters safely from ground level, minimising the need for ladder work. Every clean includes a full before-and-after report with photographic evidence. Combining gutter cleaning with soffit and fascia cleaning is our most popular package ask about the combined discount when you call.
Do you offer free quotes across Bournemouth and Dorset?
Yes all quotes are completely free with no obligation. Fill in our online enquiry form and we will arrange a convenient time to assess your property. You’ll receive a clear written quote covering every service and the full cost before any work begins. We cover all of Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Wimborne, Ferndown, Ringwood, Verwood, Broadstone and all surrounding Dorset areas and neighbourhoods.
Can you clean my driveway, gutters and roof all in one visit?
Absolutely and this is exactly what most of our customers choose to do. Combining services in a single visit is more convenient, more cost-effective and causes far less disruption to your day. In one appointment we can clean your roof, clear your gutters, restore your fascias and soffits, clean your driveway and patio, wash your windows, clean your solar panels and treat any render or K-Rend. We offer a discount on combined bookings mention what services you need when you call and we’ll put together a full package quote.
Is roof cleaning actually worth it -- will it damage my tiles?
Professional soft wash roof cleaning is absolutely worth it and will not damage your tiles. Leaving moss and algae untreated causes far more damage than professional cleaning ever will moss holds moisture against tile surfaces causing freeze-thaw cracking in winter, gradually lifts tiles as it grows underneath and blocks gutters leading to damp and water ingress. A professional clean extends tile lifespan significantly, prevents expensive repair bills, improves kerb appeal and can add real value to your property. We have cleaned over 2,400 roofs across Dorset with zero tile damage and every job backed by our 12-month moss-free guarantee.
