Roof Cleaning in Kent
Moss, lichen and debris hold moisture against your roof and accelerate the ageing of tiles and slates. Pro Guard Roofing Specialists Ltd carries out professional roof cleaning throughout Kent, removing growth and build-up safely without damaging the covering, and addressing the conditions that caused it.
About this service
Roof cleaning removes moss, lichen, algae and accumulated debris from the roof covering. Done correctly it improves appearance and helps the roof dry out properly between rain, which extends the life of the tiles. Done incorrectly — with aggressive pressure washing, for example — it can damage tiles and flush water under the covering. We use appropriate, careful methods and can follow up with a biocide treatment to slow regrowth.

Our process
We start with a professional inspection of your roof — using drone imagery where access is difficult — to identify the cause of the problem rather than just the symptom.
You receive a clear written quotation setting out the recommended works, materials and price, with no obligation.
Our experienced roofing team carries out the work using quality materials, keeping the site clean and organised throughout.
We complete a final inspection, remove waste responsibly and confirm any applicable workmanship guarantee.
Guarantees
Qualifying works are backed by a Pro Guard workmanship guarantee, confirmed in writing with your quotation.
Frequently asked questions
Is pressure washing safe for my roof?
Aggressive pressure washing can damage tiles and force water beneath the covering, so we use careful, appropriate methods instead. We assess your roof and recommend the right approach.
Will the moss grow back?
Moss can return over time, but a biocide treatment after cleaning slows regrowth significantly. We can also advise on conditions like overhanging trees that encourage it.
