Roof Treatment Cleaning

Removes moss & lichen from your roof over time

Protects your roof integrity without causing damage or water penetration and preserves your home's value.

RoofGuard treatment

RoofGuard protection for moss, lichen, and grime

Roof treatment cleaning should explain the risk clearly, then show the before/after result early.

RoofGuard™ Protection of Your Home

Once organic damage has compromised your roof's surface coating, it is vulnerable to further deterioration. Moss, mould and lichen can block water channels, damage protective surface coatings, deteriorate ridging and mortar, and reduce roof life.

  • Blocks water channels and increases leak risk
  • Damages protective tile and roof coatings
  • Can void manufacturer warranty expectations
  • Can cause permanent etching to the coating and substrate

We've been treating roofs in New Zealand for over 65 years, and our RoofGuard™ solution and a little time is all your roof needs to keep clean and clear of organic material.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our roof cleaning services.

Roof Treatment cleaning is the process of spraying algae, mold, mildew, lichen, and moss on your roof to remove this organic material over time. If left unattended, these elements can cause deterioration of roofing materials, leading to leaks and the need for costly repairs. Regular cleaning extends the life of your roof and maintains your home's aesthetic appeal.
