What should Little Chalfont homeowners know?

Unlike its older neighbours, Little Chalfont was largely built after the railway: interwar detached houses with plain clay tiles and hipped roofs, then post-war houses and bungalows with concrete tiles. Many have been extended with dormers and flat-roofed rear additions.

What goes wrong on Little Chalfont roofs?

Interwar roofs at end of life. 1920s–30s roofs here often have tired nails, brittle felt and loose hips together.

Bungalow and chalet details. Dormers and chalet roofs have lots of junctions where leaks start.

Concrete tile moss. Leafy plots mean post-war concrete roofs grow heavy moss.

How do we do roof cleaning and moss removal?

We remove moss by hand, soft wash the roof at low pressure and apply an HSE-registered professional biocide, exactly as its label directs. We do not pressure wash tiled or slate roofs. It strips the surface off concrete tiles and brings moss back faster, and on slate it drives water under the laps.

Our process

What you get

  1. 01

    Hand removal

    Moss scraped off by hand, working down the roof without walking on fragile tiles.

  2. 02

    Soft wash

    Low pressure only, so the tile surface and the laps are untouched.

  3. 03

    Biocide

    Kills moss, algae and lichen on contact; the dead growth then weathers away over the following weeks and months.

  4. 04

    Gutters and photos

    Gutters cleared of debris and the roof photographed: any slipped tiles noted.
