Roof cleaning in Henfield
Moss Men Surrey offers roof cleaning in Henfield, with a written quote within 24 hours and a method suited to your roof.
Peg tile and slate roofs like Henfield's would be cleaned by Dave, who has worked on roofs since 2004, and his sons.
What should you tell us about your roof in Henfield?
If you have an older home in Henfield's conservation area, tell us what you want to achieve before choosing a roof clean. Is moss reaching the gutters, have you seen a defect, or do you want a tidier appearance? Send photographs so we can look at that concern with you.
Lichen spots on a red tiled ridge. What decides how a Henfield roof is cleaned: peg tile, slate or stone?
The covering decides it in Henfield: peg tile roofs are cleaned by hand, natural slate roofs by hand or with roof pressure washing, and Horsham stone and thatched roofs are looked at before any method is offered. Older roofs in the village are often hipped or half-hipped and usually peg tiled, less often Horsham stone, as on St Peter's Church, and more rarely thatched. After the railway came in 1861, the villas and terraces of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were almost all roofed in slate.
Tell us if your roof is stone or thatch, and send close photographs, when you ask for a quote.

Is a roof facing Henfield Common likelier to hold moss?
It can be, where trees on Henfield Common stand close to the house, because a roof those trees shade and keep damp is one where moss tends to flourish. The common has scattered trees near the houses and becomes wooded further east. Hedgerows, woodland and mature trees also fringe the village and stand within its conservation area. A slope facing north also stays damp for longer, which can attract moss and lichen.
If your home faces the common, photograph any shaded slope and its gutters, and include them in your quote request.
Which cleaning method suits your roof?
Your roof can be cleaned by Moss Men Surrey using manual moss removal or roof pressure washing (hot, low-pressure steam). The team checks your roof covering, its condition and access before recommending either method.
| Service | Which roofs it suits | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Manual moss removal | Manual moss removal suits concrete tiles, clay tiles and natural slate. The covering and its condition decide whether scraping is right for your roof; product-specific manufacturer advice can rule it out. | From £599. |
| Roof pressure washing | Roof pressure washing suits natural slate and modern clay tiles, once the team has checked the covering, its condition, access and the manufacturer's guidance. | Starts at around £750, depending on the roof; written quote within 24 hours. |
What does manual moss removal include?
Pureseal Bac Clear Pro, a three-year moss-free guarantee and gutter clearing are what manual moss removal from £599 includes.
The biocide is the treatment we apply after removing moss.
Ridge tiles, hip tiles, valleys, verges and gutters are checked on every roof. Ridges are the top joins, hips are the sloping joins, and verges are the roof edges.
If our team damages your roof while cleaning, the repairs are included. Existing defects are considered separately when the team looks at your roof.
Artificial slate can look worse after cleaning. We discuss that risk with you before any work.
We never cold call; we check for nesting birds and bats first and stop if we find them; we check cement slates for asbestos before any work.

Great work completely got rid of all moss and treated to keep away. Dave & the boys were bang on time and barely knew they were there while clearing the roof. Highly recommended

Dave and his team did a really good job cleaning our roof. Dave came out first to have a look and provide a quote, and the work was booked in for a week or two later. They steam cleaned the roof and then applied a treatment, as well as cleaning all the gutters and treating the patio. They also tidied everything up properly before they left. The roof looks fantastic and almost like new. Really happy with the work and would happily recommend Dave and his team.

The team were courteous, responsive and thorough. In addition to the roof treatment, Dave explained what he could do for the dirty stonework and I am very pleased with the results.
