Why Stamford properties need moss removal

Stamford is a conservation town built mostly from honey-coloured limestone, with a lot of Georgian and older stonework. Moss removal in Stamford needs care, because old stone roofs and paving don’t take kindly to rough treatment. Moss and lichen settle on shaded roofs and paving, and if they’re left the stone stays wet and the paths get slippery.

Moss removal in Stamford by Fenland Property Care

Georgian stone and moss

Georgian limestone and historic stonework in Stamford gets moss on shaded roofs and paths. It holds damp against the stone, and on old buildings that’s damage you really don’t want.

✗

Lifting slates and tiles

If roots get under tiles and pointing, rain then works into the stone.

✗

Slippery paving

Moss on stone paving is slippery, especially after rain.

✗

Trapped damp

Because moss keeps limestone wet, frost then does lasting damage.

✗

Blocked drainage

It also washes into gutters and valleys, so they block.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will moss come back on old stone?

A: Much more slowly after treatment. Still, shaded stone roofs may need retreating now and then.

Q: Do you walk on old roofs?

A: Usually not. We use ladders and long-reach tools, so nobody needs to stand on the roof.

Q: Is moss bad for limestone?

A: Yes, because it holds damp against the stone and lifts tiles and pointing. It's also slippery underfoot, so it's worth clearing.

Q: Do you clear paving too?

A: Yes, we clear and treat moss on drives and patios, 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 👌

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.
