Over time, moss, algae, lichen and general dirt can build up on your roof, leaving tiles looking tired and potentially contributing to drainage problems.

Using specialist roof cleaning techniques, including steam cleaning, soft washing and fungicidal treatments where appropriate, our team carefully assesses each roof to determine the most suitable cleaning method.

We provide roof cleaning and moss removal services across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, with tailored recommendations based on your roof’s condition.
Give your roof the attention it deserves.
Your roof is exposed to rain, wind, frost and changing temperatures throughout the year. These conditions, particularly in shaded or damp areas, can encourage moss, algae and lichen to grow on roof tiles.
While some growth is mainly cosmetic, heavy moss accumulation can obstruct gutters and roof drainage, retain moisture and make it harder to identify underlying roofing defects.
At GLSR Solutions, we offer a range of professional roof cleaning services tailored to the condition and materials of your roof.
Moss commonly develops on tiled roofs, particularly where surfaces remain shaded or damp.
Our roof moss removal service helps clear accumulated growth from suitable roofing materials, reducing the amount of moss that may become dislodged and enter gutters or drainage systems.
Steam cleaning can be an effective method of removing dirt, moss and biological growth from suitable roof surfaces.
Using specialist equipment and controlled cleaning techniques, our team can remove accumulated debris while considering the condition and suitability of the roofing materials.
Soft washing uses low-pressure application methods and appropriate cleaning treatments to address dirt and biological growth.
It can be suitable for certain roof surfaces where aggressive mechanical cleaning may be inappropriate.
Algae and lichen can leave visible staining and discolouration across roof tiles.
Depending on the type of growth and the roofing material, our team can recommend a suitable cleaning or treatment approach to help improve the appearance of the roof.
Following cleaning, an appropriate fungicidal or biocidal treatment may be recommended to help control remaining biological growth and reduce the likelihood of rapid regrowth.
The suitability of treatment depends on the roofing material, environmental conditions and product instructions.
Professional roof cleaning isn’t simply about improving the appearance of your home. Removing excessive moss and accumulated debris can also form part of a sensible roof maintenance programme.
Heavy moss growth can retain moisture and become dislodged during rainfall, potentially contributing to blocked gutters and drainage problems.
Removing years of dirt, staining and biological growth can make a noticeable difference to the appearance of an ageing roof.
Accumulated moss and debris can conceal cracked tiles, damaged flashing and other visible defects. Cleaning may make it easier to assess the roof’s condition.
Regular roof inspections and appropriate maintenance can help homeowners identify potential problems before they develop into more extensive issues.
Roof cleaning does not repair damaged tiles or guarantee an increase in roof lifespan. Where defects are identified, additional roofing work may be recommended.
The cost of professional roof cleaning in Nottingham depends on the size, condition and accessibility of your roof, along with the cleaning method required.

Roof cleaning and roof coating are two different services, although they can complement each other depending on the condition of your roof.
Roof cleaning removes moss, algae, lichen and accumulated dirt, helping restore the appearance of existing roof tiles.
Fungicidal treatments can be applied following cleaning to help control biological growth and reduce the likelihood of moss and algae returning quickly.
Coloured roof coatings offer an additional option for homeowners looking to refresh or change the colour of their roof. Specialist coatings, such as ProPERLA and RENOTEC, can provide a new finish and protective benefits when applied to suitable roofing materials.
Not every roof requires a coating, and suitability depends on the condition and type of roof tiles.
At GLSR Solutions, we provide professional roof cleaning, fungicidal treatments and roof coating services in Nottingham, helping homeowners choose the most appropriate solution for their property.
Our team has received specialised training from ProPERLA on how to correctly apply the product. By choosing GLSR Solutions, you ensure that the product complies with the manufacturer’s warranty.
Roof cleaning costs vary depending on the roof’s size, condition, materials and access requirements. The amount of moss or biological growth and the cleaning method required will also influence the price. We provide tailored quotations following an assessment.
Roof cleaning can be carried out safely when the method is appropriate for the roofing material and its condition. However, unsuitable techniques or excessive pressure can damage tiles, particularly older or deteriorated roofing materials. We assess the roof before recommending a cleaning approach.
Incorrect cleaning methods can damage roof tiles, surface finishes or other roofing components. This is why it is important to use suitable equipment and techniques rather than applying high-pressure cleaning indiscriminately.
There is no fixed cleaning schedule suitable for every property. The need for cleaning depends on factors such as roof orientation, surrounding trees, shade, local conditions and the type of roofing material. Periodic inspections can help determine whether cleaning is necessary.
Moss and algae can return over time, particularly in shaded or damp conditions. Appropriate fungicidal treatments may help delay regrowth, but no cleaning method can permanently prevent biological growth.
Yes, where appropriate, we can include a fungicidal treatment as part of the roof cleaning process. This helps manage biological growth remaining after cleaning and may slow future regrowth.
Yes. Depending on the roof’s condition and materials, low-pressure cleaning methods, controlled steam cleaning or other suitable techniques may be recommended. We select the approach based on the requirements of the roof.
If we identify visible damage or deterioration, we can explain the findings and recommend appropriate next steps. GLSR Solutions also provides roof repairs in Nottingham where additional roofing work is required.
Professional roof cleaning can improve the appearance of a property where moss, algae or staining is noticeable. However, any underlying roofing defects should be assessed separately, as cleaning does not resolve structural or weatherproofing problems.
