Professional roof cleaning from DnB Roofing & Guttering.
Roof Cleaning
Roof cleaning removes the moss, algae and organic build-up that accumulate on a roof over time. DnB Roofing provides roof cleaning for homeowners across London, helping roofs look cleaner and stay better maintained.
Alongside moss, roofs can develop algae and general discolouration, particularly on shaded or damp sections. This build-up doesn't always indicate a structural problem, but it can make a roof look older than it is and contribute to debris washing into gutters.
Cleaning is a maintenance task best carried out with care for the roof beneath. We assess the condition of the roof and the level of build-up before carrying out the work, so the cleaning is proportionate and appropriate for the surface.
What To Look For
Signs You May Need Roof Cleaning
If you've noticed any of the following, it's worth getting in touch to discuss your property.

- Algae growth, particularly on shaded slopes
- Moss and organic build-up between tiles
- A roof that looks older or more weathered than expected
- Debris collecting in gutters from the roof surface
- Patchy staining where water runs down the roof

In Detail
What Roof Cleaning Addresses
Roof cleaning deals with the organic matter and discolouration that build up on a roof over time. Moss is the most visible, but algae — often seen as dark streaks — and general grime also accumulate, particularly on slopes that stay damp or shaded.
Because the material removed from the roof washes into guttering, roof cleaning pairs naturally with gutter cleaning. Clearing both together helps keep rainwater moving away from the property and reduces the chance of blockages.
Cleaning is carried out with the roof's condition in mind. The aim is to remove the build-up without causing harm to the covering, so the approach is suited to the surface and the extent of the growth.

Questions
Roof Cleaning — Frequently Asked Questions
What does roof cleaning remove?
Roof cleaning removes moss, algae, organic build-up and general discolouration that accumulate on the roof surface over time, particularly on shaded or damp slopes.
Is roof cleaning the same as moss removal?
They're closely related. Moss removal focuses specifically on moss, while roof cleaning addresses moss, algae and broader build-up. The two often go together.
Will cleaning damage my roof?
When carried out properly with the roof's condition in mind, cleaning is a maintenance task. We assess the roof before carrying out the work so the approach is appropriate for the surface.
Should gutters be cleaned at the same time?
It's sensible. Material removed from the roof washes into guttering, so cleaning both together helps keep rainwater moving and reduces the chance of blockages.
How often should a roof be cleaned?
It depends on the roof's position, shade and how quickly build-up returns. We can advise on a sensible maintenance approach for your property.
