Moss Removal
Professional moss removal from DnB Roofing & Guttering.
Moss Removal
Moss and organic build-up are common on British roofs, particularly on properties in shaded or damp positions. DnB Roofing provides roof moss removal for homeowners across London, helping keep roofs clear and gutters flowing.
Moss holds moisture against the roof surface, and as it grows it can spread into the gaps between tiles. Over time, the build-up can make a roof look tired and weathered, and the material that washes off can contribute to blocked gutters and downpipes.
Removing moss is a practical maintenance task rather than a repair, but it plays a useful part in looking after a roof. We'll assess the level of growth and carry out removal work that's proportionate to what's actually there.
What To Look For

In Detail
Why Moss Develops And How It's Removed
Moss thrives in damp, shaded conditions. North-facing roofs, properties overshadowed by trees, and roofs in areas with high moisture tend to see the most growth. It takes hold in the gaps between tiles and spreads across the surface, holding moisture against the covering.
Removal involves clearing the moss from the roof surface and the gaps between tiles. Because the material that comes off washes into gutters, clearing and checking the guttering is a sensible part of the process — blocked gutters are a common consequence of moss growth.
After removal, the roof is clearer and better able to shed water. Moss will eventually return over time, particularly in conditions that favour it, so moss removal is best viewed as ongoing maintenance rather than a one-off fix. We can advise on a sensible approach for your property.

Moss Removal — Frequently Asked Questions
Is moss on a roof a problem?
Moss holds moisture against the roof surface and can spread into gaps between tiles. It can make a roof look tired and the material that washes off can block gutters. Removal helps keep the roof maintained.
How is roof moss removed?
Moss is cleared from the roof surface and the gaps between tiles. Because the material washes into gutters, clearing and checking the guttering is a sensible part of the process.
How often should roof moss be removed?
It depends on how quickly moss grows on your roof, which is influenced by shade, damp and position. We can advise on a sensible maintenance approach for your property.
Can moss block gutters?
Yes. Material washing off a mossy roof is a common cause of blocked gutters and downpipes, which is why guttering is considered as part of moss removal.
Will removing moss damage my roof?
When carried out properly, moss removal is a maintenance task that helps the roof. We assess the roof's condition and carry out the work appropriately.
Will the moss come back?
Moss can return over time, particularly in damp, shaded conditions, so removal is best viewed as ongoing maintenance rather than a permanent fix. We can advise on a sensible schedule.
