Why Sleaford properties need moss removal

Sleaford is a market town on the River Slea, with houses in everything from brick and render to local stone. Moss removal in Sleaford is a regular job, mostly on north-facing roofs and on drives and patios that sit in shade. Moss and lichen spread over the surface and hold water against it. In time that lifts roof tiles and makes paving slippery underfoot.

Moss removal in Sleaford by Fenland Property Care

Brick, render, stone and moss

Houses in Sleaford are built from all sorts of materials, and moss grows on most of them given shade and damp. It settles on roofs and paving on the north side and holds moisture against them.

βœ—
Lifting tiles
Moss roots push under tile edges and pointing, then rain seeps in.
βœ—
Slippery paving
A shaded drive or path covered in moss is slippery, especially after rain.
βœ—
Trapped damp
If moss keeps a surface wet, frost then does a lot more harm.
βœ—
Blocked drainage
Moss also washes into gutters and valleys, so the water can't drain.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will moss come back on a north-facing roof?
A: More slowly once treated. Even so, roofs that never get the sun may need a further treatment now and then.
Q: Do you go up on the roof?
A: Usually not. We work off ladders with long-reach tools, so in most cases nobody walks on the tiles.
Q: Is moss bad for the house?
A: Yes, because it holds water and lifts tiles and pointing. It's also slippery on paving, so removing it is safer.
Q: Do you clear drives as well?
A: Yes, we clear and treat moss on drives and patios, as well as paths and steps.

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.
