What Hinckley customers say about WOW Gutters Ltd
Roofs in Hinckley — What We See
Hinckley is a market town in south-west Leicestershire with a long history in hosiery and knitwear, close to the A5 and the M69 and the border with Warwickshire.
Hinckley has a lot of concrete-tiled 1960s and 70s roofs, which grow thick moss on north-facing slopes. Older terraces near the centre are slate or clay and need gentle hand-cleaning. Every two to three years keeps most roofs in Hinckley clear, with biocide slowing regrowth in between.
Concrete roofs on the larger 1970s estates often have moss built up on the ridge and lower courses. After cleaning, we apply biocide so it takes much longer to come back.
Hand-scraping takes off the heavy growth without damaging the tile surface. Low-pressure washing removes algae without cracking tiles or washing out mortar. We tidy up and empty the gutters below before we leave.

Hinckley Roofs We Clean
Victorian slate roofs
Welsh slate is cleaned by hand — thin slates break if walked on or pressure-washed.
Inter-war roofs
Older clay tiles can be fragile, so no high pressure is used.
Concrete tile roofs
Interlocking concrete tiles grow thick moss; hand-scraping and biocide bring them back.
