Can a part-slabbed roof in Oxted be cleaned like a tiled one?
Not straight away: plain tiles in Oxted are cleaned by hand, but where Horsham slabs or stone slates cover part of a roof, the stone is looked at before any method is offered. A 15th-century cottage at Broadham Green has a plain-tiled roof with Horsham slabs on its lower half, and in 1912 an old manor house on the Crowhurst road had stone slates on its older part and tiles on its south wing, while another of the parish's manor houses was tiled throughout.
Mention any slabs or stone slates when you ask for a quote.

Does living near Oxted's beech woods mean more roof moss?
Only where trees stand close enough to shade an Oxted roof and keep it damp, which is where moss tends to flourish; beech woods further off matter less. Oxted is one of the Surrey Hills towns, a landscape of chalk downs with beech-wooded combes and a wooded greensand ridge to the south. Limpsfield Common, just over two miles from Oxted station, has beech trees around 200 years old. Beech leaves that fall on a roof lodge in its surface.
If your roof faces a wooded slope, photograph its valleys and gutters and send them with 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?
Gutter clearing and a Pureseal Bac Clear Pro treatment come with manual moss removal from £599, under a three-year moss-free guarantee.
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.

Dave and his team cleaned the roof of my semi-detached house, conservatory, and garage ealier today. Our roof had been neglected for years and was in need of some TLC. We're very satisfied with the result. They gave a fair quote. They arrived exactly on time. They removed 3 garden bags worth of moss. The garden and patio were left spotlessly clean and tidy. The roof and gutters have a new lease of life. We couldn't have asked for anything more.
