Very responsive, arrived on time and gave options for roof repair, quoted competitively and completed the work to a high standard leaving no mess. Hard working and honest guy with a crack team.

Quick, professional and friendly. The team gave me the impression that they are happy to do extra to get the best results. Carl and the team did exactly what they said they would do in the quote in the agreed time.
Daniel
Lee and his team worked incredibly hard and communicated well to let us know when they would be doing the work. They were always professional and courteous and often worked on weekends to speed up the work. We are really pleased with the quality of the finish and would thoroughly recommend the company.

Roof cleaning services
How much does it cost to clean a roof?
The cost of roof cleaning can vary depending on the method used and the size of the roof:
- Hand Removal/Biocide Treatment: Typically costs about £11.50 per square metre, effective for removing moss and preventing regrowth.
- Pressure Washing: Costs around £8.50 per square metre and is suitable for removing dirt, grime, and some moss.
- Steam Cleaning: Priced at approximately £11 per square metre, ideal for delicate tiles that require gentle cleaning.
- Soft Washing: Generally costs £18 per square metre and involves applying chemicals that remove and protect against organic growth.
How long does it take to get a roof cleaned?
- Detached Houses: Typically takes about 6-7 hours, with labour costs ranging from £550 to £600.
- Semi-Detached Houses: Cleaning can take 4-5 hours, costing between £350 and £450.
- Terraced Houses: Usually takes 3-4 hours, with costs between £450 and £500.
- Bungalows: Takes about 3-5 hours, costing between £300 and £450.
The time and cost might vary based on the roof size and the degree of dirt or moss accumulation.
How do I know if the job has been done well?
To ensure that a roof cleaning job has been performed to a high standard, several indicators should be evident upon completion:
- Moss Color Change: Properly treated moss should change colour, usually turning white, yellow, or brown, indicating that it has been effectively neutralised and will not continue to grow.
- Clean Appearance: The roof tiles should appear uniformly clean, with no streaks, stains, or patches of dirt or algae. The overall look should be refreshed and noticeably improved compared to before the cleaning.
- Intact Roof: The cleaning process should not cause any damage to the roof tiles or the overall structure. There should be no cracked tiles or dislodged elements; everything should remain intact and secure.
- No Residual Debris: A well-done roof cleaning job includes thorough cleanup after the process. There should be no leaves, dirt, or cleaning residue left behind in gutters or on the roof itself.
- Effective Drainage: Post-cleaning, the roof’s drainage system (gutters and downspouts) should be clear and functioning properly, without any blockages that can lead to water accumulation.
At Rated People, we understand the importance of choosing the right professional for your roof cleaning needs. That’s why we provide access to reviews from previous customers for each tradesperson on our platform. These reviews offer valuable insights into the quality of work, reliability, and professionalism of roof cleaners, helping you make an informed decision.
Other roof cleaning FAQs
How often should you clean a roof?
It’s recommended to clean your roof every 2-3 years to prevent excessive moss growth and to maintain its appearance and integrity.
What kills black mould on roofs?
Black mould can be effectively killed with a solution of bleach and water, or anti-mould products applied during soft washing.
Is soft washing a roof safe?
Yes, soft washing is safe for most roofing materials as it uses low pressure and specialised solutions to clean without causing damage.

With over 15 years building experience in the construction industry, GN Building Services (Stafford) Ltd are experts in all aspects of construction and project management. We specialise in both traditional and cutting-edge design and building methods. GN Building Services (Stafford) Ltd is not only a building company. We cover the entire project, from planning, design, building, renovating, electrical installation, tiling, and plumbing. We do not use subcontractors; all work is completed by our own employees. This means no delays, no waiting for specialist tradesmen; we finish the entire job within budget and on time.
If you want building work done then GN Building Services are brilliant, not just excellent!. Before we said to go ahead he had introduced us to four former clients and showed us the work completed. He and his team are probably the hardest working tradesmen I have ever come across and talk about working to time and budget. I should really keep this review quiet as they are very much in demand and I need some more work doing - but I can not rate them highly enough.
BA provide a very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable service. We excel in helping with design and thinking outside the box.
Simple job turned out to be not so simple. Turned up exactly when he said he would, did a good job, including taking on the extra degree of difficulty we had not foreseen. Job ran over from the single day expected, and returned the next day to finish off. Polite, efficient, punctual, and stuck to the price agreed.
