Where it usually starts in Kings Tamerton

  • Thick moss on the St Budeaux-facing slopes of concrete tile
  • Tile valleys jammed with moss spilling into gutters - common on modern estate stock at this exposure
  • Black algae streaks running down concrete tile after a wet winter in Kings Tamerton
  • Roof valleys spilling water sideways during heavy rain in Kings Tamerton
  • Chimney crown moss-colonised at Kings Tamerton's exposed exposure

The method that suits Kings Tamerton

  1. 1Roof ladders adjusted for the pitch typical of concrete tile on modern estate properties
  2. 2Mechanical scrape before any softwash, debris bagged - never swept into modern estate gutters
  3. 3Ridge re-bedding flagged separately if concrete tile mortar has failed on post-war semis and 1960s cul-de-sacs
  4. 4Solar arrays masked to keep softwash off the panels on newer Kings Tamerton builds
  5. 5Valley flashings checked and cleared before the main rinse on post-war semis and 1960s cul-de-sacs

Comparable roof cleaning we've done lately

Heavy north-side moss scraped and bagged, full softwash; gutters cleared as part of the visit.

Natural slate, granite chimneys

Mortar checked on the ridge during the job; one ridge tile re-bedded as a separate line item.

Older clay tile + Victorian valley

Valleys cleared by hand before any softwash went near them; no debris pushed into the gutter system.
