What Glenfield customers say about WOW Gutters Ltd
Moss and Algae on Glenfield Roofs
Glenfield is a large village on the north-west edge of Leicester, home to County Hall and Glenfield Hospital and the old Glenfield railway tunnel.
The concrete tiles on many Glenfield homes grow moss along the lower rows, especially on the shaded side. We usually recommend a roof clean every 2 to 3 years in Glenfield, sooner if moss is falling into the gutters.
Concrete roofs on Glenfield homes often have moss on the rear slope, where trees and neighbouring houses give shade.
We clear moss from the slopes, ridge and around any chimney or vent. Pressure washers are never used, because they can lift tiles and force water underneath. Downpipes are checked at the end, as roof moss often ends up in them.
