Why Louth properties need moss removal

Louth is a Georgian market town at the foot of the Wolds, best known for the tall spire of St James’ church. Much of the older property is brick and stone, and shaded roofs and yards below the hills can stay wet for days. Moss removal in Louth covers roofs and paving where moss and lichen have built up. Leave it and it lifts tiles and makes paths slippery.

Moss removal in Louth by Fenland Property Care

Shade from the Wolds and old buildings

Period brick and stone in Louth gets plenty of shade from neighbouring buildings and the Wolds behind. Moss takes hold on those roofs and paths quickly and keeps them damp, which is when the damage starts.

✗

Tiles on the move

If roots get under tiles and into pointing, the rain then follows.

✗

Slippery paving

On a shaded yard or path, moss is slippery, especially in winter.

✗

Trapped damp

While moss keeps brick and stone damp, frost then does more harm.

✗

Blocked drainage

It also falls into gutters and valleys and stops them draining.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does moss come back quickly?

A: Not once it's treated. Still, yards and roofs in the shade of the Wolds may need retreating from time to time.

Q: Will you be on my roof?

A: Usually not. We work off ladders with long-reach tools, so in most cases nobody walks on the tiles.

Q: Can moss harm old brick and stone?

A: Yes, because it holds water and lifts tiles and pointing. It's also slippery on paving, so it's worth clearing.

Q: How do I book?

A: Get a price on our instant quote page or call 07507 732952, then we'll arrange a time.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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 👌

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.
