Moss removal in East Lothian

Moss growth on roofs, driveways, and paths can lead to:

  • Moisture damage
  • Blocked gutters
  • Slippery surfaces

Hiring a specialist for moss removal in East Lothian helps protect your property and restore its appearance.

The right tradesperson will be able to safely remove moss from your roof tiles or tarmac. They can often use professional-grade treatments that prevent it from returning.

Roof moss cleaning and prevention in East Lothian

Roof moss cleaning in East Lothian typically involves brushing or scraping away moss and applying a biocidal wash to kill spores and stop regrowth.

This gentle approach avoids the risk of damaging roof tiles while restoring the roof’s surface.

Regular moss removal can extend the lifespan of your roof and prevent water damage caused by trapped moisture.

For driveways and tarmac, specialists use different techniques to safely clean the surface and improve traction.

For example:

  • Targeted moss killers
  • Low-pressure washing

Keeping your tarmac free from moss not only enhances kerb appeal but also reduces the chance of slipping in wet conditions.

How much does moss removal cost in East Lothian?

The cost of moss removal from a roof in East Lothian depends on the size, pitch, and access requirements.

On average, expect to pay £400-£900 for a standard three-bedroom house. Driveway or tarmac moss removal is usually cheaper, ranging from £100-£300 depending on the area.

Many tradespeople offer combined roof and tarmac treatments, with optional biocide applications that cost around £50-£150 but significantly slow regrowth.

Always request a detailed quote to understand what’s included.
