Why Tattershall roofs need regular roof cleaning

Tattershall is a small fen-edge town on the River Bain, and a lot of its roofs sit low and damp for long spells. That suits moss and lichen. It grows thickest on north-facing pitches, holds water against the tiles and pointing, and over the years it shortens the life of the roof.

Signs your roof needs a clean

Round Tattershall the ground is low and damp, so moss and lichen take hold on roof tiles quickly. North-facing pitches are the worst because they stay wet long after the rain stops.

βœ—
Tiles lifting
Roots creep under each tile and into the ridge pointing, and while they grow the gaps widen so water gets in.
βœ—
Freeze-thaw damage
Moss holds rain. When frost freezes it, it swells, so over a winter tiles crack and pointing goes.
βœ—
Blocked valleys
Moss in valleys blocks the drainage, then damp creeps in.
βœ—
Kerb appeal
A mossy roof is one of the first things seen from the road, and it puts buyers off.

What we do on Tattershall roofs

Roof cleaning for homes across Tattershall.

Moss removal
Heavy moss scraped off and then brushed from the roof.
Biocide treatment
A long-acting spray, so leftover lichen dies and comes back slowly.
Ridge pointing
Blown ridge mortar replaced so the roof line is weatherproof again.
Valley clearance
Moss and debris cleared out of valleys, so water drains freely.
Tile inspection
We also check the roof over for any cracked or slipped tiles.
Gutter clearance
Gutters cleared during the roof visit, because it’s cheaper that way.

How roof cleaning in Tattershall works

1
Roof assessment
Before we begin, we assess the roof, the moss and any urgent repair.
2
Hand scraping
Then moss is scraped off while nobody stands on the roof.
3
Biocide application
Once clear, the whole roof is sprayed so the rest dies and regrowth slows.
4
Our findings
Finally we report on tile condition and any repairs.

Roof cleaning in Tattershall, your questions

Q: Do you get on the roof?
A: No. We work from ladders with long-reach tools, so mostly nobody needs to be on the roof.
Q: How long will the biocide work?
A: Generally 3–5 years. Even so, shaded north-facing roofs that stay damp may need it sooner.
Q: Can you repoint ridge tiles?
A: Yes. When we find damaged pointing during the clean, we can repoint the ridge as an add-on.
Q: Can soft washing damage tiles?
A: No. Because soft washing is low pressure, it’s safe on concrete and clay tiles as well as slate, and it lifts the growth without harm.

From the initial consultation through to the completion of our roof cleaning, including the thorough removal of all debris afterwards, the Fenland Property Care team were consistently professional, courteous and meticulous. We were also very pleased with the cost of the works, which represented excellent value for the service provided.

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.

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 πŸ‘Œ

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.

Fenland did a great job cleaning and re-sanding my block paving path and my patio. Polite and efficient and cleaned the doors and windows where the dirt had splashed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Paul cleaned my drive, paths and patio the other day and I have never seen them look so clean. He cleaned the windows and left everything clean and tidy. We were very pleased with the way he worked and have had a lots of compliments from other people. We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
