Roof & Render Cleaning in Reigate
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.
In Reigate, that covers Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley. Reigate sits at the foot of the North Downs, with a historic town centre and a number of well-established residential areas featuring substantial Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses. Its position near the Surrey Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB) shapes planning policy for parts of the borough.

FAQs
Roof & Render Cleaning in Reigate: FAQs
Do you provide roof & render cleaning across all of Reigate?
Yes, we cover the RH2 postcode area in full, including Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley.
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 the Surrey Hills National Landscape designation affect extensions in Reigate?
For properties within the designated area, additional weight is given to landscape character and visual impact in planning decisions. We check whether your property falls within the boundary during feasibility.
