Real results
Documented before-and-after photos from Nottingham roof cleaning jobs. Every case shown here is a real property; every image is taken during the job by our technicians, not a stock library.
These four cases cover the vast majority of what we see across Nottinghamshire: heavy moss on concrete tile, black algae streaks, blocked gutters, and established lichen on Victorian slate. Each pair shows the exact same property before we started and after we finished, with a short case note explaining what we did and why.
Semi-detached, Mapperley (NG3)
Twelve years without treatment left this north-facing slope smothered in moss. Manual scraping plus soft-wash biocide restored the tile in a single day.
See our Moss Removal service →Homeowner had noticed granules in the downpipes and a colour shift on the north pitch. We manually scraped bulk moss top-down, cleared the gutters of dislodged material, then applied biocide at correct dilution across the full roof. The killed moss continued to shed for six weeks after our visit.
Detached, Arnold (NG5)
Classic gloeocapsa streaking from the ridge down. No moss present — biocide-led soft wash was the correct treatment, no physical scraping needed.
See our Algae Removal service →Because the growth was purely surface algae rather than moss, the job was chemistry-only. Full-roof biocide application at the correct dilution killed the algae; the streaks faded visibly within four weeks and were gone by week eight.
Edwardian semi, West Bridgford (NG2)
Two years without gutter clearance under mature lime trees. Overflow was already staining the render — caught just before fascia damage set in.
See our Gutter Cleaning service →Full-length manual clearance of all gutter runs, downpipe flush with water test, and photographic before/after record. We recommended annual clearance given the tree cover and diarised a reminder for late autumn each year.
Victorian terrace, Sneinton (NG2)
Decades-old lichen on original Welsh slate. Two-stage biocide treatment eight weeks apart cleared it without disturbing the aged nail fixings.
See our Slate Roof Cleaning service →Heritage slate is not a candidate for aggressive physical removal — nail fatigue makes brittle slates prone to slipping. We used gentle soft-wash chemistry, extended dwell time, and returned at week eight for a second application. Result: clean slate, zero slates disturbed.
Every roof clean we deliver produces a photographic before/after record — not just for the gallery, but for you. You receive the full set with your aftercare report, so you have documented evidence of the roof's condition and the work done. That matters at sale, for insurance, and for scheduling your next treatment window.
