Why Skegness properties need moss removal

Moss removal in Skegness usually means roofs and patios that have taken a battering from rain blown in off the sea. Skegness is the biggest resort on the Lincolnshire coast, with lots of bungalows and older terraces. Moss and lichen creep over tiles and paths on the shady side, and give them a couple of winters and you’ll have tiles lifting and a slippery patio.

Moss removal in Skegness by Fenland Property Care

Bungalows, terraces and sea rain

Rain driven in off the sea soaks Skegness roofs and paving regularly, and the sides that don’t get the sun stay wet. That’s where moss starts. Once it’s settled on the tiles or the drive it keeps the surface damp and wears it down.

✗

Loose tiles

Roots push in under tiles and pointing, so driven rain then gets behind them.

✗

Slippery paving

On a wet patio, moss turns slippery, so it's worth clearing before winter.

✗

Trapped damp

Because moss holds sea rain in the surface, frost then does more damage.

✗

Blocked drainage

It also washes into gutters and valleys, then the water spills over.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will sea air bring the moss back?

A: Not quickly, because treatment slows it a lot. Still, roofs on the shaded side may need retreating from time to time.

Q: Can you do a bungalow roof from the ground?

A: Usually, yes. We use ladders and long-reach tools, so nobody needs to walk on the tiles.

Q: Does moss damage a roof?

A: It does, since it holds water and lifts tiles and pointing. It's also slippery on patios, so clearing it is safer.

Q: How do I get a price?

A: Use our instant quote page or ring 07507 732952, then we'll book you in.

 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.
