Roof cleaning in Mablethorpe, right on the coast

Mablethorpe is a quiet seaside town with lots of retirement bungalows and holiday homes, and it takes the full force of the salt air off the North Sea. The town is low and right on the coast, so sea spray reaches houses all year, and sand blows in off the beach and settles in paving joints, where it scuffs surfaces. Like the other Lincolnshire coastal towns, Mablethorpe sees faster growth and wear on outside surfaces than places inland, which is why regular cleaning matters more here.

What sea air and moss do to tiles

Salt from the sea air gets into roof tiles in Mablethorpe. Over the years it weakens them and lets frost do more damage, so they don’t last as long as tiles inland. Regular cleaning and treatment helps the roof last a good deal longer.

βœ—
Tiles working loose
Moss roots creep beneath tiles and into the ridge pointing, so gaps open and wind-driven rain then gets in.
βœ—
Freeze-thaw damage
Wet moss freezes and swells in winter. Then tiles already weakened by salt crack sooner and the pointing wears.
βœ—
Blocked valleys
Moss in the valleys also blocks drainage until damp gets in.
βœ—
Hurts resale
A mossy roof stands out from the road, so buyers may wonder what else has been left to the weather.

What our roof cleaning in Mablethorpe covers

Moss removal and biocide treatment for roofs across Mablethorpe, plus ridge repointing when it’s needed.

Moss removal
Thick moss scraped off and brushed from the whole roof.
Biocide treatment
A biocide that keeps working, so leftover lichen dies and then returns slowly.
Ridge repointing
Blown ridge mortar replaced so the roof line stands up to the sea wind.
Valley clearance
Valleys cleared of moss and sand, because rain can then drain off.
Tile inspection
While we clean, we note any cracked or slipped tiles so you know which to replace.
Gutter clearance
Have the gutters done on the same visit, since that’s cheaper than a second trip.

How roof cleaning in Mablethorpe works

1
Roof assessment
First we look at the moss, the state of the tiles and anything urgent.
2
Moss off by hand
Then we scrape it away from ladders, never from the roof.
3
Biocide application
After that the roof is treated all over so the rest dies back and regrowth slows.
4
Our findings
Finally we report on the tiles and tell you about any repairs.

Roof cleaning in Mablethorpe, common questions

Q: Do you clean holiday lets and seafront homes in Mablethorpe?
A: Yes, we clean holiday lets and seafront homes in Mablethorpe regularly. Salt build-up needs the right products and method, and we have both. If you own a holiday let, we can fit cleans around your bookings.
Q: Will you walk on the roof?
A: No. We work from ladders with long-reach tools, so in most cases nobody needs to go up on it.
Q: How long does the treatment last here?
A: Generally 3–5 years. However, a north-facing roof in shade that stays damp may need it sooner.
Q: Do you repoint ridge tiles?
A: Yes, as an extra. If we see the pointing is damaged during the clean, we’ll tell you so we can repoint it.

From the initial consultation through to the completion of our roof cleaning, including the thorough removal of all debris afterwards, the Fenland Property Care team were consistently professional, courteous and meticulous. We were also very pleased with the cost of the works, which represented excellent value for the service provided.

The operative arrived on time, as arranged. Brought the necessary kit to clean an accumulation of dirt, weeds and debris over several years from our drive and patio. This was accomplished by the end of the working day when all was looking pristine. Surfaces had been cleaned down. A week later they were back to fill the gaps with kiln dried sand and now it looks like new.

Absolutely brilliant service. Very professional and friendly. Came to give a quote and was pleasantly surprised. My front and back garden look brand new. All slabs are the original colour and weedless and the front is weed free and looks amazing. They worked really hard throughout the day and also returned to finish the work, due to really hot weather. Very good customer service, had a concer and called me back within 30 minutes. Would definitely recommend πŸ‘Œ

An excellent job. From start to finish what an absolute pleasure. No pushy salesman just an authentic genuine quote. Even when I added a couple of bits, nothing was too much trouble. The price was really good too. Paul and Dale turned up on time on the date stated. Even though the weather was horrible they got cracked on with the job. They grafted all the time they were there. The work carried out was exceptionally good. They cleaned up all of the mess afterwards and let the place spotless. I cannot praise them enough. They treated my mum and her bungalow with the utmost respect.

Fenland did a great job cleaning and re-sanding my block paving path and my patio. Polite and efficient and cleaned the doors and windows where the dirt had splashed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Paul cleaned my drive, paths and patio the other day and I have never seen them look so clean. He cleaned the windows and left everything clean and tidy. We were very pleased with the way he worked and have had a lots of compliments from other people. We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
