At Universal Eco Homes, we know that the smallest problems around the home can quickly become the most expensive. One of the most underestimated issues is moss growth on your roof. Whilst many homeowners see it as a cosmetic nuisance, the reality is far more serious. When it comes to Essex roof cleaning and further afield, ignoring moss removal can lead to structural damage, damp problems and a significant drop in your property’s value.
Moss may appear soft and harmless, but it holds a surprising amount of moisture. When left untreated, moss embeds itself between roof tiles, gradually forcing them apart. This opens the door to water ingress, which compromises the roof structure over time. Moss removal is not just about appearance. It is about protecting your home from costly repairs that build up quietly over the years.
We begin every roof cleaning service by removing moss thoroughly and carefully. This ensures the roof surface is clean, dry and ready for any protective treatments, including our ProPERLA roof coatings.
Many homeowners delay moss removal because it seems like a low-priority job. But over time, moss can cause cracked tiles, blocked gutters and even rot in the roof timbers. Damp from trapped moisture can make its way inside your loft space, leading to mould, poor insulation performance and damage to stored belongings. All of this can be avoided with timely, professional moss removal from a trusted team like ours.
We have seen time and again how early action can save homeowners from having to pay for expensive restorations. A small investment now can prevent a major bill later.
A clean and protected roof enhances both the appearance and market value of your home. Regular moss removal, followed by the application of ProPERLA roof coatings, helps preserve your roof’s integrity and look. ProPERLA roof coatings are water-repellent, breathable, and self-cleaning. These are all features that specifically inhibit moss and algae regrowth, while maintaining the roof’s health and performance. As one of the few Platinum Approved ProPERLA Applicators in the whole of the UK, Universal Eco Homes is proud to offer these advanced roof coatings, complete with industry-leading warranties.
