Crystal Clear Cleaning, we are now market leaders in providing Softwash solutions to clean any tiled roof, the pictures featured on this site are cleaned by a low-pressure Softwash cleaning service. This is an innovation in technology fresh from the USA now being utilised in the UK and is our preferred way of providing a great quality Moss removal service, with reasonable rates that are very long lasting. A big winner for those who want a moss free, clean roof that can stay that way forever. Please contact us to discuss this process (with you). At this stage we must advise there are different expectations to the length of time you would expect a Moss Free Roof, urban properties or properties in good sunlight with no overhanging trees could be up to 5 years before a rewash is required. Whereas properties in lots of shade, with large trees and positioned in rural areas may require a rewash in 3 years. We can offer a yearly rewash service at a very low rate which will keep your roof looking amazing forever.

Moss Scrape followed by a Softwash DDAC application:

This is a very modern way of cleaning and cleansing a roof, the work generally takes 1-2 days depending on the size of the roof. This is a highly economical way of removing moss and cleansing the tiles.

 The moss heads are knocked off and cleared away by specialist hand tools designed for the job, all gutters and downpipes are cleared and the moss is cleaned up from around the property, then a ‘low pressure’ Softwash solution is applied which looks like a foam that falls slowly down the roof allowing contact time so the DDAC can work it's magic. This is a Biodegradable Chemical solution that immediately cleans and cleanses the roof from sludge and moss, there is not a huge impact immediately,  instead there is a slow and steady improvement over the next 12 Months. All White & Yellow Lichen, micro Spores and Bacterial growth will be killed off. The hardy white & yellow lichens will fade and disappear but will take several months. NB White Lichen may need a 2nd application a year after as it is the most hardy Lichen to kill and remove from tiles.  It is important to remember, this chemical cleanses all existing and new growth, but will not protect against new growth, hence the requirement to re-apply every few years depending on location and conditions.

Ideal for customers looking to remove the moss from their roofs quickly and reasonably cheaply and have a roof that is clean of moss forever, reducing the need for gutter clearances and keeping the roof healthier and looking much better.
 
The advantage of Softwash is that you can have a clean roof for life, when the moss finally starts to grow, or the tiles get darker (approximately 3-5 years later), a reapplication of the Softwash can be sprayed lightly over the area at approximately 1/4 to 1/5th of the original cost, giving you a Moss Free roof forever.
