Professional Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal
in Snodland & Across Kent
Protect your roof tiles with safe biocide treatments and expert care from our family-run team.

Our comprehensive roof cleaning process begins with a detailed site assessment. We inspect the condition of your roof tiles, identifying any areas of existing damage or vulnerability before beginning any work. We then move on to the manual removal phase. Unlike some contractors who rely on high-pressure jet washing—which can strip the protective granular coating from concrete tiles and force water into the roof space—we predominantly use specialist hand tools to carefully scrape away the bulk of the moss. Once the heavy growth is removed, we apply a professional-grade biocide treatment. This chemical application is designed to penetrate the surface and kill any remaining spores, as well as stubborn lichen and algae. Over the following weeks, the biocide continues to work with the natural rainfall to further clean the tiles and prevent regrowth for a significant period. Finally, we perform a full gutter clearance to ensure that all fallen debris is removed and your drainage system is flowing correctly.

Investing in professional roof cleaning offers several critical benefits for your property. Firstly, it significantly extends the lifespan of your roof by preventing the premature degradation of tiles caused by moisture retention and frost-heave. Secondly, it maintains the efficiency of your drainage system; moss that breaks away naturally often ends up in gutters and valleys, causing blockages that lead to internal dampness and overflow issues. Thirdly, it improves the thermal performance of your roof. Wet moss can increase the thermal mass of your roofing material, potentially contributing to interstitial condensation within the roof structure. Finally, a clean, well-maintained roof dramatically enhances the curb appeal and market value of your home, keeping it in top condition for years to come.

Safety and regulatory compliance are at the heart of everything we do at Century Roofing and Building.

We use professional access equipment, such as roofing ladders, towers, and safety harnesses, to ensure our team can work effectively without putting unnecessary pressure on your roof structure.

For properties in conservation areas, we take extra care to ensure our cleaning methods are sympathetic to the age and heritage materials of the building.
