We strongly recommend Liam and Lee for their roof cleaning service. They completed our roof cleaning within a day and it made a massive difference to neighbours roofs.

Avoid Irreversible Roof Damage that is Expensive & Emotionally Damaging. Contact us for a Free Fast Soft Wash Roof cleaning Quote. Don’t Fall for Rogue Traders and their Unreasonably Low Jet Wash Prices. Here’s 6 reasons why unnecessary high pressure jet washing shouldn’t be used instead of soft wash roof cleaning: 1) In many cases it voids your roof tile manufacturers warranty. Any pressure over 1,200psi can cause irreparable damage to some roofs because of their construction or current condition (psi is ‘pressure per square inch’ and measures a unit of stress) 2) Loosens waterproofing flashings if machine used incorrectly. Loose flashings will allow water to leak in causing water degradation and damp. 3) Diminishes tile surfaces by creating an etched tile. This means there are deeper crevices in the tile, making it easier for algae to grow, which will hasten the need for a another roof clean in the future! 4) Creates mess on the day of the clean. We always clean up after our work but some tradesman can not be trusted to minimise and then remove all mess from a jet spray. 5) Can sometimes change the general colour of the roof. High pressure jet wash on some roofs will lead to duller, often white roof tiles months or years after the clean. This is rarely the ‘freshen up’ experience our customers are hoping for 6) Last but not least, pressure washing is often the sole method used by non-roofing experts. Window cleaners, gutter cleaners and have-a-go-roof-cleaners have spotted an opportunity to make a quick buck – or so they think. The reality is that roof cleaning mistakes are costly to the tradesman. It’s better to know how to avoid these mistakes but also be skilled enough to rectify unfortunate worst case scenarios. At British Roof Cleaning we know how to carry out all roofing activities should the universe be conspiring against us! So can you pressure wash your roof? Tile manufacturers like Marley have succinctly answered the question of pressure washing by simply saying no. Not all roofs are made using Marley tiles though. Sites like ‘Roof Coating Scam‘ are very black and white on the issue of pressure washing. The word ‘never’ is used many times. We believe that a minority of roofs are suitable for pressure washing but most aren’t. Sometimes a pressure wash is essential. For example, if you wish to paint your roof to upgrade or change the colour, a pressure wash must be completed first immediately before applying the new coating. The good news is the most proven coating products will add a fresh layers of protection to the tiles Clean Your Roof: Get a Free No Obligation quote – Receive Your Roof Cleaning Price Within 24 Hours

Ghosted by Liam and not happy with the job

We hired British Roof Cleaning to clean our house roof and treat to remove the lichen. All was going OK, and we were reassured that the treatment would take a day or so to work to get rid of the remaining lichen. Unfortunately, though most of the job was done well, the front low roof was poorly cleaned and remained covered with lichen. I contacted Liam, who answered at first and then ghosted me thereafter, with no resolution or explanation. Very poor customer service and the low roof still looks uncleaned. Would not recommend.

What a bunch of crooks

What a bunch of crooks!lee came to clean my roof while cleaning smashed my skylight glass. Liam kept promising that they'll get it sorted asked me for part payment so I did and then Liam has just been blanking my messages. Dont use them! Absolute horrendous customer service and left us with a broken skylight!

Brilliant result and great service

I bought my place about 6 months ago knowing I'd have to tackle a very mossy roof at some point. I was actually considering doing it myself (after watching a few YouTube videos) because it's only a bungalow. But thankfully I deicided to get a quote from BRC and thank goodness I did. The guys were so thorough and professional. It would have taken me so long I would have had to book time off work and honestly it would have been totally miserable. And that's assuming I didn't fall off and break my neck, or fall through the roof!

I can highly recommend BRC. Just get a quote and then think how long and painful it would be to try to do it yourself!

Excellent service

Excellent service. Very reliable and very reasonable price. The workmen were great, very polite, took good care of my property and everything was cleaned and left tidy once the work was finished. The roof looks fantastic and I would definitely recommend this company.

Professional diligent job well done

From start to finished a very professional job. Liam is the main contact he explained everything about a review of the roof to see if a pressure wash or soft wash is ideal and the full process including chemical application and a 3 year warranty after the initial clean. Very impressed with the cleaning done on the roof by Lee, the guttering cleaned and all diligently clean and tidy after as well as taking care to ensure nothing goes over to the neighbours side
Would use again and would recommend

Good Service. Good Price. Good Results.

British Roof Cleaning impressed me with how easy it was to contact and arrange an appointment online. The guys arrived to do the work on time and were great. They worked so hard in the hot summer sun and Lee, the lead technician, was clearly very experienced in this type of work; he explained what he was doing and why. The result...a great job. I no longer have moss on my patio. My gutters don't clog up with roof debris and my roof looks much, much better. I should have had this work done years ago! So, if you have moss and lichen on our roof, if your gutters are filling with roof debris, or if you just want your roof to look better, I can highly recommend British Rood Cleaning to sort out the problem, and at a reasonable price.
