Top 5 Signs Your Roof Needs Cleaning This Summer
Roof cleaning isn’t just about appearance – it’s essential for protecting your home from damage, leaks, and costly repairs. Here are the top 5 signs your Sussex roof is overdue for a professional clean.
1. Moss & Algae Growth
These aren’t just unsightly. Moss traps moisture, leading to tile damage and increased wear.
2. Black Streaks or Stains
Often caused by algae, these can lead to premature aging of roof tiles and decrease your property value.
3. Blocked Gutters & Downpipes
If your gutters are full of roof debris, it’s a sign the roof itself is shedding moss, tiles, or dirt.
4. Visible Debris After Storms
After heavy rain or wind, check for branches, leaves, or tiles on your roof.
5. You Can’t Remember the Last Time It Was Cleaned
Most roofs benefit from a professional soft wash every 1–3 years depending on exposure, weather, and location.
