Moss On Roof in Sunderland

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 A19, out around Sunderland Enterprise Park, through Roker and Fulwell.

  • Hand-scrape and biocide treatment
  • Gutter clear-out included
  • Cracked tiles replaced as we go
  • No high-pressure washing — protects the tile surface
  • 12-month moss-free guarantee

Sunderland-specific context

Salt-laden coastal air corrodes ferrous fixings and degrades old underlays quickly, so we always specify stainless or galvanised replacements close to the seafront. Coastal terraces in Roker and Fulwell, ex-colliery rows in Hendon and Pennywell, and 1960s semis through Castletown — many with original Welsh slate still in service.

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.
