Moss Removal

Careful Moss Removal for Tiled Roofs

Moss looks harmless, but it holds water against your tiles like a sponge. Over time it lifts the edges of tiles and lets rain blow underneath, and in frost the trapped water can crack them. As it dries and breaks off, it falls into the gutters and blocks them, which leads to overflowing gutters and damp walls.

We remove moss from the roof by hand, working tile by tile with scrapers and brushes so the tiles and their surface are not damaged. We then clear the gutters and downpipes, check for any slipped or broken tiles, and apply a treatment to slow regrowth. If you want extra protection, we can apply an Andura protective roof coating.

We cover the whole area, including moss removal in Maidenhead, Windsor and Beaconsfield.

Why choose us

Why Choose Reactive Roofing for Moss Removal

  • Removed by Hand

    Working by hand with scrapers and brushes lifts the moss without forcing water under the tiles or wearing away their surface.
  • Gutters Cleared as Part of the Job

    Moss cleared from a roof ends up in the gutters. We clear the gutters and downpipes so they carry rainwater away as they should.
  • Repairs While We Are on the Roof

    Moss often hides slipped or cracked tiles. We check the roof as we clear it and tell you about any repairs it needs.
  • Treatment and Coating Options

    A treatment slows moss coming back, and an Andura protective coating adds a further layer. We explain both so you can choose what suits the roof.

Good to know

Frequently Asked Moss Removal Questions

Is moss bad for my roof?

Yes, over time. Moss holds water against the tiles, which can lift their edges and let rain blow underneath. In frost the trapped water can crack tiles, and moss falling from the roof blocks gutters and downpipes.

How do you remove moss without damaging the tiles?

We work by hand with scrapers and soft brushes, clearing moss from the tiles, ridge and valleys. This lifts the growth without forcing water up under the tiles or wearing away their surface, which helps the roof last.

Will the moss come back?

Moss will return eventually on most roofs, especially on shaded or north-facing slopes. Treating the roof after cleaning slows regrowth, and a protective coating adds further resistance. Keeping the gutters clear also helps.

What is a protective roof coating?

It is a coating applied to clean, dry tiles to help them shed water and resist moss and algae. We use Andura coatings and will explain whether one suits your roof when we quote.
