The right chemistry for Hamilton
Roof tiles covered in moss, algae and lichen don't just look bad — they trap moisture and shorten the life of your roof. We carefully scrape, soft-wash and biocide-treat the tiles to remove growth and prevent it returning, all without high pressure that can crack or dislodge tiles. We adjust the biocide blend slightly for South Lanarkshire's harder water and the green-algae load that's typical here.
- Soft-wash on slate, concrete and clay tiles
- Lichen-specific biocide for Burnbank slate roofs
- Free gutter clearance with every roof job
- Scaffold-free on most Hamilton property types
Commercial neighbours = airborne grime
Hamilton's proximity to Hamilton International Technology Park and the M74 corridor brings airborne dust that settles on render and glass faster than rural homes nearby. Worth knowing when you're pricing how often to clean.

Common Hamilton questions
Will roof cleaning damage older South Lanarkshire property?
No — our method is built around the older property stock in South Lanarkshire. We never use high pressure on tile or render — only soft-wash with a controlled biocide.
What if roof cleaning doesn't fully clean my property?
If you're not happy with the finish on the day, we come back and re-do it at no charge. It's rare — but it's the offer.
How long does roof cleaning take on a typical Hamilton property?
Most Hamilton jobs are completed in a single day. Larger detached properties in Hillhouse or Eddlewood can stretch to a day and a half, but you'll have an exact timing in writing before we start.
Do I need to be home when you do roof cleaning?
No. The vast majority of Hamilton jobs we do without the homeowner on site. We just need clear access to the work area. Payment is on completion via bank transfer.
