Moss On Roof in Ashington
Moss isn't just cosmetic. It holds moisture against the tile or slate, accelerates surface erosion, and blocks gutters. Soft scraping, biocide and a follow-up biocide spray gives years of clear roof — high-pressure washing usually causes more harm than good. We're regularly on roofs close to the A189, through Hirst and Newbiggin-edge.

Ashington-specific context
Coastal-influenced but more sheltered than Blyth — moss and lichen are common on older slates by year 30. Long colliery-era terraces in Hirst, plus 1960s social housing and newer estates around the outskirts.

Should I pressure-wash my roof?+
No. It strips the protective coating on concrete tiles, lifts slate edges, and floods the underlay. Soft method only.
