Why Lincoln properties need moss removal

Moss removal in Lincoln depends a lot on where you live. Uphill, around the Cathedral, older brick and stone houses have north-facing roofs and yards that hardly see the sun. Downhill the ground is heavy clay and stays wet. In both parts of the city moss and lichen spread on shaded roofs and paving and hold water there, which lifts tiles and makes paths slippery.

Why Lincoln roofs grow moss

Shaded streets uphill and wet clay ground downhill both suit moss in Lincoln. It builds up on roofs and block paving and keeps them damp, so it’s worth clearing before it does real damage.

✗

Lifting tiles

As roots grow under tiles and into pointing, water soon follows.

✗

Slippery paving

On a shady yard or path, moss gets slippery, especially after rain.

✗

Trapped damp

Moss holds water in brick and stone, so frost then does more harm.

✗

Blocked drainage

It also washes into gutters and valleys and causes blockages.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does moss come back after treatment?

A: It comes back much more slowly. Still, north-facing roofs uphill, and wet clay spots downhill, may need retreating occasionally.

Q: Do you need to get on my roof?

A: Usually not. Since we use ladders and long-reach tools, in most cases nobody walks on the roof.

Q: Is moss bad for older Lincoln houses?

A: Yes, because it holds water and lifts tiles and pointing. It's also slippery on paving, so removing it is safer and better for the house.

Q: Do you cover all LN postcodes?

A: Yes. We cover every LN postcode, as well as much of the rest of Lincolnshire.

 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 👌

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

We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
