Roof cleaning and moss removal in Holbeach
Moss stripped and the roof cleaned down, with the whole process explained before you commit to anything.
A thick coat of moss holds damp against your tiles, gets in the way of water running off the roof, and drops into the gutters every time the wind gets up. Stripping it off and cleaning the roof down is worthwhile work, and it is work we do properly rather than quickly.
How we go about it
Every roof clean starts with a visit. We look at the roof, see how the moss is sitting and what the tiles underneath are like, and then we explain the process step by step before you commit to anything. One customer's quote visit covered the whole method from start to finish before any work was booked, and that is how we do it every time. No mystery, just a clear account of what we will do and why.
Moss on Holbeach roofs
From the clay pantiles on the older cottages around Holbeach to the concrete tiles on the estates, moss takes hold wherever it gets the chance, and once it is established it only spreads. The north-facing slope usually goes first, so it is worth walking round the back of the house now and again to see what the street never shows you.
Cleaned down, not just scraped
The service is called roof cleaning and moss removal because it is both halves of the name. The moss comes off and the roof is cleaned down afterwards, so you are left with a roof that looks right from the street and sheds water the way it was built to.

What people say
In their words, not ours
One of the problems of finding a roofer when you are an older person is the thought of being scammed, especially given the increasing numbers of rogue traders together with the high costs at stake especially if the work is poor or non existent. We trawled a lot of roofers and found varying prices and limited experience and ‘one man bands’ offering little or no guarantees for their work. We came across Fred’s newly formed EverCrest Property Care Ltd Company and were initially concerned at the limited 3 months or so that they had been trading for, albeit that Fred had been a Sole Trader for some 6 years. So we undertook a ‘due diligence’ on the company and found they had worked on a limited number of roofing projects in the start up time. However having had a number of positive conversations with Fred we decided to give his company a chance having had a very good response and price to our required specification that formed the basis of our Building Control Application through Boston Borough Council. They say you can only make a first impression once and EverCrest Property Care Ltd certainly made an excellent impression indeed, in fact the work they undertook was first class and our Building Control Inspector was equally impressed with the standard of works they carried out. Our project involved replacing a main roof on a detached property and likewise on a kitchen extension. Work commenced on a Friday with the scaffolding being erected along with the delivery of two skips. On the Monday morning around 8:30am a team of 7 arrived on site and by 10am both roofs had been stripped and the Building Inspector was called early to check out the structure prior to the roofers installing the new insulation, membrane and battening in readiness for the new soffits, guttering and tiles being installed from Tuesday onwards. By Thursday the project had been completed and the Building Inspector returned first thing Friday morning and signed off the work having been impressed with the finished work. On the basis of the above experience we would have no hesitation in recommending EverCrest Property Care Ltd as a suitable and very experienced roofing contractor and would be happy to give any references to their standard of works.

Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal in Holbeach: common questions
What does it cost to have moss removed from a roof in Holbeach?
The only honest answer comes after we have seen the roof, because the amount of moss and the type of tile change the job completely. We visit, explain, and quote in writing. The quoted price is what you pay, full stop.
Will removing the moss damage the tiles on my Holbeach roof?
Done carelessly it can, which is why we look at your tiles first and explain exactly how we will work on your roof, step by step, before you agree to anything. You know the whole process in advance.
Does moss actually harm a roof or just look untidy?
Both. Moss holds damp against the tiles and keeps shedding debris that has to end up somewhere, so a heavy covering is more than a looks problem. That said, if yours can safely wait, we will tell you so.
How often will the roof need doing again?
That depends on the roof and what surrounds it, so we will not book you onto a schedule you do not need. When we see your roof we will give you a straight view on how quickly the moss is likely to come back.
