Moss can make your roof stand out from the rest of the street, but it needs to be removed and fast!
Pretty as it can look, moss is affecting the structure of your roof and over time can cause major problems, sometimes resulting in the total replacement of your roof.
Moss thrives in dark and shady areas and can multiply and spread quite quickly as it absorbs more and more rainwater.
Moss can affect any sized roof and can bring stress to its structure as well as breaking roof tiles or forcing the tiles to drift apart with the sheer pressure of the water. Once gaps appear in the roof or between the roof tiles, this is where the bigger problems can result in hefty repair bills.
Roof timbers and joists can become saturated along with condensation being formed, resulting in the only option of having to completely replace roof timbers because the wood has rotted through.
