Why Barton-upon-Humber properties need moss removal

Barton-upon-Humber sits on the south bank of the Humber, close to the Humber Bridge. Damp air comes in off the estuary, and roofs and paths on the shady side of a house can stay wet for a long time. We do a lot of moss removal in Barton-upon-Humber, on roofs as well as drives and patios. Moss on a roof holds water against the tiles and can lift them, and moss on a patio is slippery when wet.

What damp estuary air does to a roof

Being so close to the estuary, Barton-upon-Humber gets more damp air than towns further inland. Moss grows readily on roofs and block paving here, and once it’s established it keeps those surfaces wet and slowly harms them.

✗

Tiles on the move

Roots push under the tiles and into the pointing, then water follows them in.

✗

Slippery paving

Wet moss on a drive or patio is greasy underfoot, and that's how people end up on their backs.

✗

Trapped damp

While moss sits on a slab or tile it keeps it wet, so frost gets in and cracks it.

✗

Blocked drainage

Loose moss also ends up in gutters and valleys, and the water has nowhere to go.

Frequently asked questions

Q: How long before moss comes back?

A: Treatment slows it right down. Even so, shady spots near the estuary can need treating again from time to time.

Q: Do you need to get up on my roof?

A: Mostly no. We use ladders and long-reach tools, so the job is usually done without anyone walking on the roof.

Q: Does moss actually harm a house?

A: It does, because it holds water and lifts tiles and pointing. It also makes paving slippery, so getting it off is the safer choice.

Q: Will you do the patio and drive as well?

A: Yes, we clear and treat moss on drives and patios, and also on paths and steps.

 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.
