ROOF CLEANING
Roof cleaning is the process of removing dirt, debris, and other types of buildup from a roof. It is important because over time, roofs can accumulate things like moss, algae, leaves, and other debris, which can damage the roof if left unchecked. This buildup can also reduce the lifespan of the roof, making it more susceptible to leaks, rot, and other issues. Regular roof cleaning can prevent these issues and extend the lifespan of the roof.
Cleaning your roof can also improve the appearance of your home. A clean roof can make your home look more attractive, and can even increase its value. Additionally, removing debris from the roof can prevent it from clogging gutters and downspouts, which can cause water damage to the interior of your home.
Overall, roof cleaning is an important part of home maintenance that can help prevent damage, improve the appearance of your home, and save you money in the long run by extending the lifespan of your roof. Blue Shield are UK specialists at roof cleaning so by choosing Blue Shield for your roof cleaning, you’re choosing quality for your home.

TESTIMONIALS
We had a 4 man team for 2 days cleaning the exterior of the house. Every member of the team was friendly, approachable, professional and worked to a very high standard. The team turned up on-time, got their equipment set up and went to work. Couldn't be happier with the service; the attention to detail and end result speaks for itself; one of my neighbours even came round to enquire about having their house done. I highly recommend Blue Shield; you wont be disappointed.
2 day clean carried out on a very large residential roof. The results are outstanding and the house looks new. The team were polite and friendly and explained everything they were doing across the 2 days. Also had 2 slipped tiles and a broken tile that were all fixed too. I would highly recommend Blueshield!
Had a full team and they were amazing. Can not believe the difference - the roof tiles 35 years old now look brand new and the 5yr guarantee means no more moss or clogging of drain pipes. Am super happy and they cleaned up so well - and there was a lot to clear up. Windows and gutters all sparkling.

Dirt, debris, moss, and algae growth can accumulate on your roof over time, which can cause damage and deterioration if left unchecked. Regular roof cleaning and treatment can prevent this and keep your roof in good condition.
