Roof & Render Cleaning in Maidstone
Roof and render cleaning removes moss, algae, lichen and black staining from roof tiles and rendered walls using a soft-wash method — low-pressure application of a biocidal treatment rather than direct high-pressure water — which cleans effectively without dislodging tiles or damaging render, priced per square metre.

FAQs
Roof & Render Cleaning in Maidstone: FAQs
Do you provide roof & render cleaning across all of Maidstone?
Yes, we cover the ME14, ME15 and ME16 postcode areas in full, including Allington, Barming, Loose, Penenden Heath, Tovil, Weavering, Bearsted.
Why is roof cleaning done as a soft wash rather than pressure washing?
Direct high-pressure water can dislodge or crack roof tiles and damage render, so roof and render cleaning uses a low-pressure biocidal treatment instead — it kills moss and algae at the root without the physical risk of blasting the surface.
How quickly will I see results after treatment?
Some improvement is visible soon after treatment, but moss and algae typically continue to weather off and fade over the following weeks as the biocide takes full effect, rather than disappearing instantly.
Does flood risk from the River Medway affect extensions in Maidstone?
For properties in flood risk areas, extension design may need to take flood resilience into account, and a flood risk assessment can be required as part of a planning application. We check the Environment Agency flood mapping for your property during feasibility.
