What Wigston customers say about WOW Gutters Ltd
Roofs in Wigston — What We See
Wigston, including Wigston Magna, South Wigston and Wigston Fields, sits just south of Leicester with the Grand Union Canal running along its western side.
The terraces in South Wigston have a lot of Welsh slate, which grows moss in the joints. The 1950s and 60s homes in Wigston Magna mostly have concrete tiles that hold algae. Every two to three years keeps most roofs in Wigston clear, with biocide slowing regrowth in between.
Slate roofs on South Wigston terraces often have moss along the bottom edge and around chimneys. We clear these areas carefully and note any slipped slates.
We clear moss from the slopes, ridge and around any chimney or vent. A gentle soft-wash cleans the tiles — never high-pressure washing. The gutters are cleared afterwards so the moss doesn't block them.

FAQs
Roof Cleaning Wigston — Your Questions
The questions Wigston customers ask us most about roof cleaning. Can't find your answer? Call 07421 433910.
How much does roof cleaning cost in Wigston?
From £500 for a typical Wigston 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 Wigston?
Most Wigston roofs need cleaning every 2–3 years, with north-facing slopes showing moss first.
Why do roofs in Wigston get so mossy?
The terraces in South Wigston have a lot of Welsh slate, which grows moss in the joints. The 1950s and 60s homes in Wigston Magna mostly have concrete tiles that hold algae.
Which areas around Wigston do you cover for roof cleaning?
We clean roofs across Wigston (LE18) and in Wigston Magna, South Wigston, Wigston Fields, Oadby, Glen Parva and Countesthorpe.
Do you pressure wash roofs in Wigston?
We don't. High pressure can crack tiles and wash out mortar, so we hand-scrape the moss and use a low-pressure soft-wash and biocide.
Do you clear the gutters after cleaning a roof in Wigston?
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 Wigston?
Yes. We are fully insured for roof cleaning in Wigston and across Leicestershire.
