Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal in Runcorn, Widnes & Cheshire
Moss-covered roofs across Runcorn, Widnes, Warrington, and Cheshire are our bread and butter. We clean the whole roof safely from our vehicle-mounted platform—scraping the moss off by hand, flushing the gutters, and leaving no footprint on your tiles.
Once clear, we apply a professional biocide treatment that works with the natural weather to continue cleaning long after we have gone. Over the next 6 months, this weathering effect gently brings your tiles back to their original colour, killing off any remaining moss and delivering that spotless jetwash look with absolutely zero risk of damaging your roof.
2-year no-moss guarantee on treated roofs

After Why moss on your roof is worth dealing with
Moss looks harmless, but it holds water against your tiles like a sponge. Through a Cheshire winter that trapped moisture freezes and thaws over and over, which is exactly how tiles crack and surfaces break down. Clumps also lift tiles at the edges, letting wind-driven rain underneath.
And it does not stay on the roof. Every downpour washes loose moss into your gutters and downpipes, which is why so many blocked-gutter and damp-wall problems start on the roof above them. Cleaning the roof properly deals with the cause, not just the symptom.
How we clean your roof
We park the vehicle-mounted platform on your drive or the road outside and set up in minutes. Our operator works across the roof face from the basket, scraping and brushing the moss off the tiles by hand and working it down methodically: main faces, ridge line, valleys and flashings.
Everything that comes off is cleared up, not left in your garden. We finish by clearing and flushing the gutters and downpipes so the roof drains properly, and because we are up there anyway, we give the whole roof a once-over and let you know about anything that needs attention, whether that is a slipped tile you will want a roofer for or cracked chimney flaunching we can put right, with photos so you can see it for yourself.
Why a cherry picker beats scaffolding or roof-walking
Most roof cleaners either walk on your tiles or charge you for scaffold hire. Walking on a roof is how tiles get cracked, and scaffolding adds days of disruption and hundreds of pounds before any cleaning starts.
Our platform does neither. It reaches up to 20m working height with around 13m of outreach, so we can work across the whole roof, over conservatories and extensions, without a single boot on a tile. Set-up takes minutes, most homes are finished the same day and when we drive away there is nothing left behind.

Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal FAQs
Common questions about roof cleaning & moss removal across Halton and Cheshire.
How much does roof cleaning cost?
It depends on the size of the roof, how heavy the moss is and the access, so we quote each job individually. Quotes are free, with no obligation, and you always get one clear price before we book anything in. Not VAT registered, so no VAT to add.
Will you damage my tiles?
No. Nobody walks on your roof: all the work is done from the platform basket, and the moss is scraped and brushed off by hand rather than blasted. If we spot a tile that is already cracked or slipped, we photograph it and let you know.
How long does a roof clean take?
Most two and three bed homes are done in a day or less, including clearing up and flushing the gutters. Larger or heavily mossed roofs can take longer; we will tell you when we quote.
What happens to all the moss?
We clear it as we go, flush the gutters and downpipes afterwards and bag up the debris. Your garden, drive and gutters are left as we found them, minus the moss.
When will the moss grow back?
It depends on the roof: shaded, north-facing roofs and homes under trees moss up faster. A proper scrape and brush-down keeps most roofs clear for years, and we are happy to put you on a reminder for a maintenance visit.
Do you guarantee the moss will not come back?
Yes. Every roof clean includes a professional biocide treatment, and we back it with a two-year no-moss guarantee: if the moss returns inside two years, we come back and deal with it. The treatment carries on working after we leave, killing off any remaining moss as the roof weathers back to its original colour.
Which areas do you cover for roof cleaning?
We are based in Runcorn (WA7), so Runcorn, Widnes and Warrington are quickest, and we cover Frodsham, Helsby, Northwich, St Helens, Liverpool and Chester too. Delivery of the platform is always included.
