Roof cleaners who know Basildon's roofs
Basildon was built as a new town from the 1950s, so most roofs are concrete tiles on terraces, semis and flats from the same era. Langdon Hills and the older plotland roads add bungalows and bigger detached houses.
We work across Pitsea, Laindon, Langdon Hills, Vange, Lee Chapel and the town centre (SS13, SS14, SS15, SS16). The jobs we see most:
- Concrete interlocking tiles where moss fills the grooves and slides into the gutters
- Long terrace roofs shared with neighbours, which we can do in one visit
- Hillside homes at Langdon Hills in the shade of the country park woods

On the day
What happens when we arrive
Terry, the owner, is on every job, sometimes with a labourer. The same careful routine on every roof, from the first knock to the final walk round.
1We walk round with you
We arrive on time and walk round the house with you first, so you know the plan before anything starts.
2Tarpaulin down, neighbours told
Neighbours below the roof line get a knock, and tarpaulin goes down so nothing lands on their side.
3Low-pressure clean
Every slope cleaned with low pressure only. Then your gutters cleared and fascias washed down, free.
4Biocide, then a proper tidy-up
Biocide goes on to kill what's left at the root, then we clear up everything before we go.

FAQs
Roof cleaning in Basildon: your questions
Can we book our terrace with the neighbours?
Yes. We can clean a run of neighbouring roofs in one visit, with a separate price and invoice for each household.
Are concrete tiles worth cleaning?
Yes. They're tough, but moss holds water on them and the grooves fill up. A low-pressure clean and biocide brings them back to their proper colour.
How do we know the gutters are clear afterwards?
We flush them with water and check every downpipe runs freely before we leave. You can watch it run.
Do you cover Corringham and Fobbing?
Yes, along with Horndon-on-the-Hill and the rest of the area.
Do you cover Chafford Hundred?
Yes, and the rest of Thurrock too.
How much does roof cleaning cost?
Most homes cost £650 to £950, with the biocide, gutters, fascias and soffits included. A bungalow is £450 to £550, and a large or hipped roof from £1,150. Your exact price is fixed before we start. No deposit, and no VAT to add. See our roof cleaning prices.
Do you charge extra for the gutters and fascias?
No. Every roof clean includes a free gutter clear and a free fascia & soffit clean. Both are done on the same day as the roof. We also do gutter clearing on its own.
Can you price my roof without coming out?
Usually, yes. We can see the size and shape of your roof and how much moss is on it without coming out, and photos you send help too. If anything is unclear, such as access at the back, we arrange a free visit first. Either way, the price we give you is the price you pay.
Will cleaning damage my tiles?
No. We use low pressure only, never high-pressure blasting. We photograph the roof before we start, and if a tile is disturbed during the clean we replace it like for like at no cost.
