Professional Roof Biocide Treatments Across Canterbury

Moss, mould, lichen and other organic growth can build up on your roof over time, affecting its appearance and potentially contributing to ongoing surface deterioration.

Southern Wash Worx provides professional roof biocide treatments designed to target organic growth and help keep your roof cleaner and better maintained over time.

Roof biocide treatments can be suitable for various residential and commercial roofing applications, depending on the roofing material and condition.

We can assess:

  • Residential roofs
  • Commercial roofs
  • Tile roofs
  • Metal roofing
  • Roofs with moss build-up
  • Roofs affected by mould or lichen
  • Properties requiring ongoing roof maintenance

Our Process

  • Roof Assessment

    01

    We assess the roof's condition, surface type, level of organic growth and access requirements before recommending a treatment approach.

  • Surface Preparation

    02

    We prepare the surrounding areas and take appropriate precautions to protect the property and nearby surfaces before treatment begins.

  • Biocide Application

    03

    The appropriate treatment is applied to the roof surface using suitable equipment and application methods.

  • Treatment Period

    04

    The treatment works over time to target organic growth and contamination.

Window Cleaning

Treat the Problem, Not Just the Surface

Roof growth isn’t always something that can be effectively dealt with by simply blasting the roof with high pressure.

Our biocide treatment approach is designed to target unwanted organic growth and help break down moss, mould, lichen and similar contamination.

Depending on the condition of the roof, a biocide treatment may be used as a standalone treatment or as part of a broader roof cleaning service.

Absolutely outstanding job, cleaned very stubborn lichen off the roof (2 storey house) and the garage roof. Entire outside of the house cleaned , with no damage to paint work, front fence cleaned inside and out . All the painted surfaces look as new. Thought we would need to paint the fence- and now we don’t! Windows (outside) and the gutters were included. Hugo is an absolute machine, very thorough and a delight to engage with. We are very happy clients- highly recommend Sam and his team and look forward to engaging them again in the future.

Sam is pleasant to deal with. Great communication. Explains all. What he finds. We are in a new subdivision with lots more earthworks to be completed, so dust dirt on all, especially the solar panels. Looking forward to better solar returns now. Thanks Sam.

Got Questions? We Have Answers

A biocide treatment is designed to target organic contamination such as moss, mould, lichen and algae. The treatment works over time rather than relying solely on high-pressure cleaning.

Not necessarily. Biocide treatments are designed to work over time, and visible results can continue to develop after application. The outcome depends on the type and amount of organic growth and the condition of the roof.

There is no single schedule that suits every roof. The frequency depends on the roof, surrounding environment and how quickly organic growth returns. We can provide maintenance recommendations following an assessment.

Yes. We provide roof cleaning and biocide treatment solutions for suitable commercial properties. Larger sites can be assessed individually to determine the appropriate cleaning and treatment approach.

Not necessarily. The roofing material, condition, surrounding environment and existing contamination all need to be considered before treatment. We’ll assess the roof and recommend a suitable approach.
