Why Holbeach properties need moss removal

Holbeach is a market town in the silt fens of south-east Lincolnshire, a few miles in from the Wash. The land is flat and open, and roofs and paths that face away from the sun don’t dry out quickly. Moss removal in Holbeach covers roofs as well as drives and patios. Moss on tiles and slabs holds the water in. Tiles lift, and paving gets slippery.

Moss removal in Holbeach by Fenland Property Care

Damp air off the Wash

Flat, open fen around Holbeach and damp air off the Wash keep shaded roofs and paving wet for long spells. Moss moves in on those surfaces and, once established, keeps them damp.

βœ—
Lifted tiles
Moss roots force their way under tiles and pointing, so water gets in.
βœ—
Slippery paving
When moss covers a drive or path, it's slippery, especially after rain.
βœ—
Trapped damp
Because moss keeps the surface wet, frost then does more damage.
βœ—
Blocked drainage
Debris also washes into gutters and valleys and blocks them up.

Frequently asked questions

Q: How long does moss stay away?
A: For a good while, since the biocide slows regrowth. Still, damp, shaded roofs near the Wash may need retreating now and then.
Q: Does anyone walk on the roof?
A: In most cases, no. We work from ladders with long-reach tools, so the tiles are left alone.
Q: Is moss bad for my roof?
A: Yes, because it holds moisture and lifts tiles and pointing. It also makes paving slippery, so clearing it is safer.
Q: Are your treatments safe to use?
A: We're PureSeal Services UK approved applicators, so we're trained to use HSE-registered biocides.

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.
