Built on local expertise

Nottingham Roof Cleaning was founded in 2014 to bring a higher standard to roof cleaning in the East Midlands. Too many local homeowners had been pressure-washed onto a path of premature roof replacement; we built the business around soft-wash methodology that protects tile life while delivering results that last 3–5 years — not 12 months.

Over 12 years we've cleaned, inspected and restored more than 3,000 roofs across every NG postcode. That volume gives us something no cold-called national operator can offer: street-level knowledge of Nottingham's housing stock, from Victorian slate in Sneinton to post-war concrete tile in Bilborough to conservation stonework in the Park Estate.

Frequently asked questions

How much does professional roof cleaning cost in Nottingham?
Most Nottingham semis and 3-bed detached properties fall in the £450–£950 range for a full soft wash, moss removal and biocide treatment. Bungalows typically sit £300–£600, and larger detached or heritage slate properties £900–£1,600. We fix pricing in writing after a free inspection so there are no day-rate surprises.
How often should a Nottingham roof be treated for moss?
For most NG postcodes we recommend a full moss removal and soft wash every 3–5 years, with a lighter biocide top-up at the mid-point. Shaded roofs under tree cover in areas like West Bridgford, Mapperley or Sherwood often need the top-up at 24 months; south-facing roofs in exposed spots can extend to 5–6 years.
Do you use soft wash or pressure washing on roof tiles?
Soft wash on every domestic roof — always. High-pressure washing strips the protective coating from concrete tiles, opens micro-cracks in slate, and dramatically shortens roof life. Our soft-wash system uses low pressure combined with a professional-grade biocide, which is the method recommended by every major UK tile manufacturer.
How long do the results of a professional roof clean last in Nottingham?
A properly executed soft wash with biocide typically keeps a Nottingham roof visibly clean for 3–5 years, and free of heavy moss regrowth for up to 5–7 years with a mid-cycle biocide top-up. Results last longest when gutters are kept clear and overhanging branches are trimmed back.
