Home›Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal›New Haw
Thick moss cushions on the tiles and gutters choked with fallen clumps? We hand-scrape, wash and treat New Haw roofs with a method matched to your tiles, then clear the gutters before we leave.
Roof moss is not just an eyesore. It holds rainwater against the tiles like a sponge, lifts the edges of tiles as it grows underneath them, and sheds clumps into the gutters every time the wind gets up. Our roof cleaning New Haw service clears that growth and restores the roof surface, using techniques chosen for the type of tile on your house.
Most jobs begin with moss removal by hand, using specialist made-to-measure tile scrapers that fit the profile of your tiles and take moss off without cracking them. Depending on the roof, we then use low-pressure washing or roof steam cleaning to lift algae, lichen and grime from the surface. An optional biocide treatment can be applied afterwards to slow the return of moss, algae and lichen. Once the roof is clean, we clear all the moss and debris out of the gutters so the drainage is left in good working order. The result is a roof that looks cared for and is better protected through wet winters.
New Haw occupies a damp, sheltered spot, with the River Wey Navigation on one side and the wooded ground of Woodham on the other. Mist lifts off the water on still mornings, and roofs that face north or sit in the shade of mature trees stay wet for long stretches through autumn and winter. That constant moisture is exactly what moss needs, so it is common to see deep green cushions along the ridge and in the overlap between tiles on houses across the village.
The housing stock plays a part as well. Concrete interlocking tiles, fitted on many New Haw homes when roofs were renewed in the 1970s and 1980s, have a slightly rough surface that moss grips easily. Plain clay tiles on older interwar semis develop lichen and algae over time, and their thinner profile means they need a gentle approach. Chalet bungalows have large roof areas relative to their size, so moss can be particularly noticeable from the street.
As the moss spreads, it drops into the gutters and blocks outlets, and in heavy storms that can mean water overflowing onto walls and paths. Treating the roof and clearing the gutters together tackles both problems at once. We carry out roof cleaning and moss removal throughout KT15, from the roads near New Haw lock and the station to Woodham, Addlestone and Byfleet.
Every roof is different, so we tailor the method to your tiles and the level of growth.
We look at the tile type, the depth of moss and any broken or slipped tiles, then confirm whether scraping, low-pressure washing or steam is best for your New Haw roof.
Made-to-measure tile scrapers remove moss cushions and thick growth tile by tile, working carefully down the slope so the surface, the nibs and the overlaps are not damaged.
Low-pressure washing or roof steam cleaning then lifts the remaining algae, lichen and dirt, bringing back the original tile colour without blasting or eroding the surface.
If chosen, a biocide is applied to slow regrowth. All gutters are then cleared of fallen moss, downpipes are checked for blockages and the paths and drive are left tidy.

Roofs do not need cleaning every year, and a little moss is nothing to worry about. These signs, though, suggest it is time to book:
Dealing with moss early prevents damage and keeps the job simpler compared with leaving it to build up for years. If you are planning to sell, a clean roof also makes a better first impression in listing photos.
We quote each roof individually after looking at photos, because no two New Haw roofs carry the same amount of moss or have the same access. The price is shaped by:
Pictures of each roof slope taken from the garden and pavement are enough for us to work out a firm figure, normally on the day you send them.
High-pressure jet washing can erode tiles and force water up under them, so we do not use it on roofs. Instead we rely on hand scraping, low-pressure washing and steam cleaning, chosen to suit your tiles, which clean effectively without that risk.
That depends on the setting. Homes near the Wey Navigation or under mature trees see moss return sooner than those on open ground. A biocide treatment after cleaning slows regrowth of moss, algae and lichen, helping the roof stay clean for considerably longer than washing alone.
Yes, concrete interlocking tiles are very common in New Haw and respond well to hand scraping followed by low-pressure washing or steam. We take care not to damage the surface coating or the tile overlaps, and we check for any cracked tiles as we work.
Always. Removing moss from a roof inevitably sends some of it into the gutters, however careful we are. We clear every run and check the downpipes before we leave, so the next downpour drains away as it should rather than spilling over.
Steam cleaning is particularly good for stubborn lichen and algae and for more delicate tiles, as it uses heat rather than pressure. For many roofs, low-pressure washing is enough. We will recommend the best option once we have seen your roof.
Yes. Chalet bungalows have large, steep roof slopes that often carry heavy moss, and the dormers create corners where it gathers. We clean the main slopes, around dormers and along valleys, then clear the gutters, leaving the whole roof looking fresh.
