Look at the growth and its surroundings
Separate surface growth from broken tiles using Adam's inspection photographs before agreeing the cleaning and repair price.
Moss gathering at tile laps
Thick growth along overlaps obscures the tile edges. The roof condition needs checking before deciding how to remove it without damaging the covering.
Green debris in gutters
Moss washed off a slope collects around outlets and downpipes. Clearing the roof and checking drainage belong in the same work assessment.
Broken tiles beneath growth
A clean-looking finish will not close a cracked tile. The inspection separates damaged components from surfaces that need cleaning and treatment.
Growth around hips and ridges
Mortar and fittings beside dense moss need a closer look. Adam records loose or damaged roof parts before setting out the cleaning proposal.
Inspect, scrape, treat and check the drainage
Pay for the cleaning and repairs your roof actually needs. Adam photographs the covering beneath the growth, then separates moss removal, surface treatment and damaged tile or gutter work in your written quotation.
Our recorded Bletchley work combined moss scraping and sprayed treatment with tile, hip and gutter repairs. That is a practical model for assessing a moss-covered roof: expose the condition, deal with the actual defects and check where the removed growth has collected. Adam updates you with photographs as the work progresses. The team is fully insured, and payment is made at completion rather than through an advance deposit.

A real moss-treatment job in Bletchley
The Bletchley record gives you a local example with named work rather than a borrowed before-and-after photograph: scraping, sprayed treatment and repairs to tiles, hips and gutters. In Buckingham, shaded slopes and older roof details need the same careful distinction between surface growth and a roofing defect. Adam judges the material and its condition on your property, so the cleaning proposal reflects what is there instead of promising one process for every type of tile.
A customer’s account of the work
Hired Adam from Storm Shield roofing to replace my roof. Adam himself and his team did an excellent job the roof looks great! All my questions were answered they left no mess when they left I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
The communications with Adam were excellent. The work was arranged quickly and carried out by Ben to a high standard. Would heartily recommend this company.
Initially keen to get the work - went out of his way to visit the site. Pleasant demeanour and went about the work diligently. Made a good job of the roof, and cleaned everything when the task was completed. The cost was mid-range of the three quotes I got.
Cleaning scope decides the quotation
The roof area, access and density of growth affect the cleaning work. Repairs to tiles or hips and clearing the drainage are distinct items that should be visible in the quote. Adam checks all of those points before setting out the price, with pictures that show why a roof needs more than the removal of its most obvious green patches.
What sets the price
- Area of roof growth
- Roof pitch and access
- Condition of the covering
- Agreed treatment process
- Tile and hip repairs
- Gutter debris removal
Roof cleaning and moss removal questions
Should moss be removed from roof tiles?
Moss removal is worth considering when growth covers roof details or collects in drainage. The roof should be inspected first so its material and condition determine the method. Adam distinguishes cleaning from repair and provides photographs with the proposed work, including any broken tiles revealed during the assessment.
Will roof cleaning stop a leak?
Cleaning only stops a roofing problem when the cause is an obstruction that the cleaning removes. Cracked tiles, failed flashing and loose ridge details need repairs of their own. Adam checks for those faults before quoting, so a cleaner roof is never sold as a substitute for fixing rain entry.
Do you check gutters during moss removal?
Gutters need checking because roof growth and loosened debris collect there and obstruct outlets. The written scope identifies the drainage work alongside the roof cleaning. Adam's recorded Bletchley job included gutter repairs as well as moss treatment, demonstrating why those two parts of the roof deserve attention together.
Can you clean a roof with damaged tiles?
Damaged tiles need to be assessed and included in the work plan before cleaning begins. Removing growth does not restore their strength or close an opening. Adam photographs the defects and explains which repairs accompany the cleaning, so you know the condition of the roof beneath the surface growth.
What is the best time of year for roof repair?
Book an inspection when the problem appears rather than waiting for a particular season. The repair materials and safe access determine the working conditions needed, including around a roof-cleaning job. Adam explains the programme once he has checked the roof, and urgent water entry should be reported immediately by phone.
