Roof Cleaning in Edgware

Keeping Edgware Roofs Clean and Protected

Edgware sits at the northern tip of the Northern line in the HA8 postcode area, and the residential streets fanning out from Edgware station are overwhelmingly 1930s suburban development. Semi-detached houses with hipped concrete tile roofs line roads like Hale Lane, Whitchurch Lane and Deans Lane, and many of these properties still have their original roofing that has never been professionally cleaned. After 80 or 90 years, the moss accumulation on some of these roofs is significant.

Edgware benefits from excellent green spaces, including Edgwarebury Park, Canons Park and Stonegrove Park, but these open areas and the many large private gardens generate huge volumes of airborne organic matter. Moss spores settle on tiles and establish colonies within a single growing season, especially on the north-facing slopes that receive little direct sunlight during autumn and winter. Gutters clogged with moss debris are a frequent complaint from Edgware homeowners.

Our Edgware roof cleaning service removes all moss, algae and lichen growth, restoring tiles to their original appearance. We clear and flush all gutters as standard, and apply a biocide treatment that prevents regrowth. The difference is dramatic, and many of our HA8 clients tell us they wish they had done it years earlier.
