Gentle Roof Cleaning Using the Marshall Air Pro System

At Alfresco Exterior Cleaning, we provide specialist roof cleaning using the Marshall Air Pro compressed air system. This method is particularly suited to delicate roof coverings such as natural slate, Cotswold stone tiles, and older roofs where a gentler approach is required.

Over time, moss, algae and lichen can build up on your roof. As a result, your property can begin to look tired and neglected. Furthermore, moss holds moisture against the roof surface which can accelerate the ageing process of roofing materials.

Rather than using aggressive cleaning methods, the Marshall Air Pro uses controlled compressed air to safely remove moss and debris. Consequently, we can achieve excellent results while significantly reducing the risk of damage to fragile roof coverings.

Once the moss has been removed, we then apply a professional roof treatment designed to suppress the regrowth of moss, algae and lichen. In addition, the treatment continues to work long after we have left your property, helping to keep your roof cleaner for longer.

Unlike some roof cleaning methods that promise instant results, our treatment works gradually. Therefore, the full effect is typically seen within 6 to 9 months as rainfall and natural weathering remove any remaining organic staining. As a result, your roof will continue to improve in appearance over time.

Ultimately, the result is a cleaner, healthier-looking roof that can remain free from significant moss growth for up to 5 years.

Most people are not aware of the potential structural damage moss, mould and lichen can do to your roof.

If left untreated, it will start to degrade your roof tiles due to the caustic nature of mould spores and the excess water absorption of moss will put unnecessary weight on the structure. Watch our process in our Knowledge Centre  – http://knowledgecentre/roof-cleaning-faq/

Dry Moss Removal

A Safe Way to Remove Moss From Your Roof

Not every roof should be cleaned in the same way. At Alfresco Exterior Cleaning, we carry out a home assessment before recommending the most suitable cleaning method for your property.

For delicate roofs, including natural slate, Cotswold stone tiles and older roof coverings, we use the Marshall Air Pro compressed air system. This modern process removes moss without the need for high-pressure water, making it one of the safest ways to restore your roof.

Why Choose Dry Moss Removal?

Not every roof clean can be wet cleaned using low water pressure. By comparison, the Marshall Air Pro uses carefully controlled compressed air to lift and remove moss, lichen and loose debris while protecting the roof surface. It is a much gentler approach for older and more fragile roofs.

Every Roof Is Different

There is no single roof cleaning method that suits every property. That’s why our experienced surveyors Mark or Nick inspect every roof before work begins.

We consider:

• The age and condition of your roof.
• The type of roof covering.
• The amount of moss and organic growth.
• Access requirements.
• Your expectations and long-term goals.

Once we have completed the assessment, we recommend the safest and most effective cleaning method for your home.

Long-Lasting Results

After removing the moss, we apply a professional roof treatment to help suppress the regrowth of moss, algae and lichen.

The treatment continues to work long after the clean has finished. As rain and natural weathering wash over the roof, the remaining organic staining gradually disappears. Therefore, the full improvement is usually seen within 6 to 9 months.

Depending on the roof, surrounding trees and local conditions, your roof can remain cleaner for up to 5 years.
