Alford roofs get more weather than most, so we do roof cleaning in Alford for houses old and new. Moss comes off, then the tiles get treated.
Alford sits on the eastern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, a little higher and more open than the flat fen towns to the south. The coast is only about 8 miles away, so rain blowing in from the east and north brings a bit of salt with it, plus dust off the fields. The Victorian buildings round the market place and the farmhouses out in the Wolds both pick up heavy moss and lichen on their roofs and walls.
Alford sits a little higher than the fens, on Wolds-edge clay. Roof tiles here collect moss and lichen along with a film of clay dust, and if the moss is left to build up, frost gets under it and can lift tiles.
Nobody walks on your Alford roof while we clean it, so cracked tiles and loose pointing stay as they are.
Old clay and modern concrete need different handling, so we pick the method before we start.
If anything did go wrong, we carry £1m public liability insurance on every job.
We take moss off and treat roofs across Alford, and when the ridge needs it we repoint that as well.
