Roof Cleaning

Lichen and moss hold moisture against your tiles and accelerate cracking. We use soft-wash treatment specifically formulated for roof tiles — no walking on the roof, no high-pressure that strips protective coatings. Tile and metal roofs both covered.

  • No high-pressure — no tile damage
  • Lichen and moss killed at root
  • Tile and Colorbond metal roofs
  • Results visible within 2–4 weeks as growth dies off

Frequently Asked Questions

Is pressure washing safe for roof tiles?

No. High pressure on terracotta or concrete tiles risks cracking, dislodging ridge capping, and stripping the protective coating that slows future growth. We use soft wash treatment at low pressure — that is the method the tile manufacturers and the roofing industry recommend.

How long until I see results after a roof clean?

Soft wash treatment kills the lichen, moss, and algae at the root. The dead growth then washes off over two to four weeks as rain and wind do their work. The roof does not look instantly clean — it improves progressively over the following month.

How often does a roof need cleaning in Newcastle?

Every three to five years for most homes. Coastal properties and homes with heavy tree cover need more frequent attention. South-facing roof pitches accumulate growth faster than north-facing ones because they stay damp.

Will roof cleaning void my tile warranty?

Soft wash cleaning at low pressure does not void tile warranties. High-pressure washing does — most tile manufacturers specify this in their warranty conditions. If your tiles are under warranty, check the conditions before booking any cleaning service.
