Cleaning around a chimney stack
Moss collects where the roof meets the chimney. The cleaned patch next to the stack shows the difference against the tiles still to be done.
Measham is a former mining village in the National Forest, on the line of the old Ashby Canal and known for its Measham teapots.
Older terraces have slate and clay roofs, and estate homes have concrete tiles. Damp air from the woodland helps moss grow quickly. Leaf litter and shade from mature trees give moss a head start on the rear slopes of many Measham homes.
Damp woodland air means moss grows quickly on Measham roofs, especially on the slopes facing the trees.
Moss is removed by hand first, so the tiles are never blasted. A gentle soft-wash cleans the tiles — never high-pressure washing. The gutters are cleared afterwards so the moss doesn't block them.
From Oakthorpe to Ashby-de-la-Zouch, we clean roofs right across Measham and North West Leicestershire, including Donisthorpe, Swepstone, Ibstock and Coalville.
Roof cleaning in Measham starts from £500. Roof size, moss level and access set the final figure, and you get a fixed price before we start. Fixed price confirmed before we arrive — no call-out fee and no hidden charges on the day.
