Just bought a house, it has some moss on the roof, not enough that we actually looked at it and thought “ohh, there’s moss on the roof” but the survey mentioned it.
The only practical problem seems to be that the gutters are blocked (but that’s not lead to any damp anywhere), only noticed because it’s rained twice in the last 48 hours and the newly fitted water butts are bone dry.
Any practical experience of having roof’s cleaned? Internet is full of conflicting advice against jetwashing, or even removing manually with oxygen bleach and a stiff brush and that any painted on coating is a waste of money. But on the other hand that leaving it be will mean the damp moss will destroy the tiles a little more each time it freezes.
The other problem is most of the gutters and downpipes go into the ground as pipes not into a surface drain/grid, so I’m wary of flushing large amounts of soft spongy, swells when wet, moss into them!
What does STW think (other than clean the gutters)?
