Regular roof cleaning helps to maintain one of the most important parts of a building's structure. Removing algae, lichen, moss and leaf litter from a roof's surface helps to keep it in good condition for decades longer.
Scheduled roof cleaning also provides professionals with an opportunity to assess the condition of your roof. This can be an excellent way to spot minor maintenance issues before they turn into serious problems.
Spectrum has years of experience cleaning all external areas of domestic and commercial buildings, including roofs. This expertise allows our operatives to find the most appropriate cleaning solution for your property and complete the work as efficiently as possible.
We provide a range of commercial roof cleaning services tailored to meet the specific needs of your property. Our expert team uses advanced techniques and equipment to ensure your roof is thoroughly cleaned, protecting its integrity and enhancing its appearance.
Some common roof cleaning services include:
Metal roof cleaning
Metal roofing has been used on commercial properties for years. In fact, it is one of the oldest commercial roofing materials on the market. Most metal roofing systems use corrugated, galvanised steel, although other materials, like aluminium or tin, can also be used.
Our advanced cleaning methods allow our teams to completely renovate metal roofs of all kinds. Once work is complete and all organic matter and staining are removed, metal roofs will be restored to their original aesthetic condition.
Roof tile cleaning
Roof tiles are used to top both commercial and residential buildings. Over time, tiles can be discoloured by the growth of algae, mould and moss, as well as by pollutants in the atmosphere. When cleaning tiled roofs, Spectrum uses low-pressure, high-temperature steam cleaning equipment and a powerful biocidal softwash. This combination of cleaning methods ensures that roof tiles are left looking as good as new.
Shingle roof cleaning
Shingle is mostly commonly used for homes and residential roofing, although it can also be used for steep-slope commercial roofing. Like tiles, shingle is prone to the growth of algae, moss and mould. Over time, this growth can begin to look unsightly and cause the roof to look older and in worse condition than it really is. Spectrum can use a combination of cleaning methods to remove organic growth and other staining and restore shingle roofs to their original aesthetic condition.
Solar panel cleaning
To keep your solar panels efficient you need to hire a professional solar panel cleaning company. Our history with unique access strategies means that no matter where your panels are positioned, we will be able to access and clean them.

The best way to clean a roof is to use a tailored approach that respects the roofing material, preserves its integrity, and ensures safety and environmental responsibility. At Spectrum, we combine the latest technology, industry-leading cleaning techniques, and creative access methods to effectively clean roofs without the need for scaffolding.
Our approach includes a few key steps:
Assessment
Initial inspection to determine the type of roof, the extent of dirt, moss, or algae accumulation, and any specific challenges.
Method selection
Choosing the most suitable cleaning technique based on the roof's material and condition. This could include soft washing, steam cleaning or the application of biocides that prevent the regrowth of organic matter.
Access selection
Using IRATA-certified rope access technicians, MEWPs (Mobile Elevated Work Platforms) and our own patented pole system, we can reach every part of your roof with minimal disruption to your property or its surroundings. Our approach not only enhances safety but also reduces the overall cost and environmental impact by eliminating the need for scaffolding in most cases.
Eco-friendly cleaning
Employing environmentally responsible cleaning agents and methods to minimise the exposure of your roof and surrounding areas to harmful chemicals.
Our comprehensive approach not only cleans your roof but also extends its life, improves its appearance, and maintains its functionality. Whether your roof is made of tiles, shingles or metal, and whether it has features like solar panels or complex gutter systems, we’ll tailor our cleaning services to provide the best care for your roof.
