What Cosby customers say about WOW Gutters Ltd
Roofs in Cosby — What We See
Cosby is a village south of Leicester with a brook running through the centre of the village.
Older cottage roofs are clay or slate, and estate homes have concrete tiles, all of which grow moss in the damp air near the brook. We usually recommend a roof clean every 2 to 3 years in Cosby, sooner if moss is falling into the gutters.
Bungalows and older cottages are the most common roofs we see in Cosby. Low roofs are easy to reach safely, so most jobs here are finished within a day.
On Cosby roofs we start by clearing the moss from the tiles, ridges and valleys. Low-pressure washing removes algae without cracking tiles or washing out mortar. Any slipped or cracked tiles we notice are shown in your photos.

FAQs
Roof Cleaning Cosby — Your Questions
The questions Cosby customers ask us most about roof cleaning. Can't find your answer? Call 07421 433910.
How much does roof cleaning cost in Cosby?
From £500 for a typical Cosby house. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted after we've seen photos or had a look, and the price doesn't change on the day.
How often does a roof need cleaning in Cosby?
If you can see green tufts from the street, a Cosby roof is usually due a clean.
Why do roofs in Cosby get so mossy?
Older cottage roofs are clay or slate, and estate homes have concrete tiles, all of which grow moss in the damp air near the brook.
Which areas around Cosby do you cover for roof cleaning?
We clean roofs across Cosby (LE9) and in Littlethorpe, Willoughby Waterleys, Whetstone, Broughton Astley and Narborough.
How long does the biocide last?
It slows regrowth for many months. Most roofs stay clear for a couple of years before moss starts to return.
Do you clear the gutters after cleaning a roof in Cosby?
Yes. Moss from the roof ends up in the gutters, so we empty them and check the downpipes as part of the roof clean.
Are you insured for roof work in Cosby?
We are fully insured for roof work in Blaby District, on homes and commercial buildings.
