Why Bourne properties need moss removal

Bourne is a market town where the fens meet the higher limestone ground of Kesteven. Houses here are a mix of limestone and brick, and shaded roofs and paths on the fen side can stay wet for a long time. We do moss removal in Bourne on roofs and on drives and patios. Moss sitting on them holds water, and in time that lifts tiles and leaves the paving slippery.

Moss removal in Bourne by Fenland Property Care

Where moss settles in Bourne

Limestone and brick homes in Bourne, on the edge of the fen, often have roofs and paths that stay damp in the shade. Moss gets established there quickly and traps moisture against the surface.

✗

Raised tiles

As roots grow under tiles and pointing, rain gets in where it shouldn't.

✗

Slippery paving

A green drive or path is slippery, especially after rain or a heavy dew.

✗

Trapped damp

Moss keeps limestone and brick damp, so frost then does more harm.

✗

Blocked drainage

Also, moss that washes off the roof clogs gutters and valleys.

Frequently asked questions

Q: How long does a treatment last?

A: It slows regrowth considerably. Still, damp, shaded corners on the fen side of town may need re-treating every so often.

Q: Can you do it without going on the roof?

A: In most cases, yes. We use ladders and long-reach tools, so nobody needs to walk on your tiles.

Q: Is moss bad for old stone?

A: Yes, because it holds water against the stone and lifts tiles and pointing. On paving it's also slippery, so it's worth clearing.

Q: Do you clear moss from drives too?

A: We do. Drives and patios get cleared and treated, as well as 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.
