Homes and businesses across Merthyr Tydfil — the former ironworking capital of Wales, with terraced housing set against a dramatic backdrop of surrounding mountains and valleys — run into the same roofing issues as anywhere else in South Wales, and roof moss removal is a common one. Moss-covered roofing is extremely common, particularly on roofs that receive limited sunlight or are close to trees.
What's Usually Going On
Moss-covered roofing is extremely common, particularly on roofs that receive limited sunlight or are close to trees.
Careful Roof Cleaning
Roof tiles aren't patios. Aggressive cleaning techniques can potentially damage certain roofing materials, so the appropriate cleaning method should be chosen according to the type and condition of the roof. We'll assess the roof before deciding how the moss should be removed.
In Merthyr Tydfil specifically, it's worth factoring in the age and construction of your property — older buildings tend to need closer attention around original roof junctions and detailing than newer, tightly-built homes.
