What Our Roof Moss Removal Service Covers
Every job includes the full removal, treatment, and cleanup. We do not upsell basic items that should be part of the service.
Work order
Roof Moss Removal- Hand Scraping: We remove moss with a pry bar and roofing hammer, working carefully around shingle edges and flashing. No pressure washers, no chemical burns on your landscaping. Debris gets bagged and hauled away.
- Full-Slope Treatment: We treat the entire roof surface, not just the green patches. That stops spores from spreading to clean slopes. The treatment keeps working for 12 to 18 months, and we schedule the follow-up before we leave.
- Gutter Cleaning: Moss clumps and grit get scooped out of every gutter run and the downspouts get flushed. Clean gutters are essential after a moss removal job, because backed-up water is what feeds new growth at the roof edge.
- Flashing and Vent Check: We inspect roof flashing, pipe boots, ridge vents, and chimney joints while the roof is clear. Loose fasteners get tightened and failed sealant gets replaced with a fresh bead. Anything bigger gets quoted before we touch it.
- Photo Documentation: You get before-and-after photos of every slope we work on, plus close-ups of any damage we find. Useful if you are filing an insurance claim or just want a record of the roof's condition for your own files.

Tools and Methods We Use
Each method answers a different question. Together they leave very little to guess.
Clears loose grit, needles, and moss fragments off the roof after scraping. Keeps the gutters and downspouts from getting packed with debris.
Reads the water content in the roof deck and underlayment. Tells us whether the boards are still solid or already softening from long-term moss growth.
Finds hidden moisture pockets behind the shingles and around flashing. Catches slow leaks that have not yet shown up as a ceiling stain inside the house.
Scoops moss and grit out of the gutter runs. Tin snips trim damaged gutter sections or cut new hangers when a run needs re-securing.

How Roof Moss Removal Works in Surrey
Surrey roofs take a beating from the local pattern: wet falls, long freeze-thaw winters, and north-facing slopes that stay damp for weeks. Moss gets its start in the shaded valleys and along the north eaves, then spreads across the slope a little more each spring.
Newton
Older bungalows with mature tree cover. Shade keeps the north slopes damp, so moss comes back faster here than almost anywhere else in Surrey.
Cloverdale
Mix of 1970s shingle roofs and newer builds. The older roofs often have moss that has been growing for years and needs careful hand scraping.
Guildford
Larger two-story homes with steep pitches. Fall protection and careful scraping matter more here because the slopes are harder to reach safely.

PhotoNewton Bungalow North Slope Cleared
Before: A 1,400 square foot bungalow in Newton had moss covering roughly 60 percent of the north slope. The gutters were packed solid, and the homeowner had noticed grit washing onto the driveway after every rain. Two shingle tabs had already lifted at the ridge.
After: We scraped the moss by hand over three hours, treated the full slope, replaced the two lifted tabs, and cleaned every gutter run. The roof shed water cleanly through the next rain, and no grit has washed onto the driveway since.
Cloverdale Rental Portfolio Treated
Before: Six rental homes in Cloverdale had moss on the north slopes and clogged gutters. Two of the properties had slow leaks around the pipe boots that tenants had reported as ceiling stains. The owner needed the whole portfolio handled in one week.
After: We treated all six roofs in five days, replaced four cracked pipe boot collars, and cleared every gutter. The ceiling stains stopped spreading, and the owner got a photo report for each address to keep in the maintenance file.
South Surrey Chimney Moss Removed
Before: A South Surrey home had thick moss growing around the chimney and along the ridge. The chimney flashing had cracked under the moss, and water was starting to stain the attic sheathing. The homeowner wanted the moss gone and the flashing fixed in one visit.
After: We removed the moss by hand, replaced the failed chimney flashing with new lead work, and treated the full slope. The attic stayed dry through the next heavy rain, and the roof looked clean from the street.
Green moss spreading across north-facing slopes
Moss holds water against the shingle mat, lifts the tabs, and lets wind and frost tear them loose.
Gutters packed with moss and grit
Blocked gutters push rainwater up under the shingle edge and rot the fascia boards.
Moss hiding cracked flashing and pipe boots
Moss grows in the shade around roof flashing and pipe boots, holding moisture against the sealant until it fails.
Moss returning every spring after a cheap spray
A one-time spray kills the surface growth but leaves the roots in the shingle gaps.
Why Clear Moss Off Your Roof
Moss is slow damage.
Extend Shingle Life
Moss traps moisture against the shingle mat and lifts tabs at the edges.
Stop Hidden Leaks
Water that moss holds against roof flashing and pipe boots finds its way in.
Protect Gutters and Fascia
Moss clumps wash into gutters and pack the downspouts. That backed-up water rots fascia and soffit boards fast.
Better Curb Appeal
A green roof reads as neglect, even when the shingles underneath are fine. After treatment, the roof looks 10 years younger from the street.

Hand-scrape the moss with a pry bar or roofing hammer, then treat the slope with a moss-killing product. Never use a pressure washer on asphalt shingles. We scrape by hand, blow the debris clear with a leaf blower, and treat the full slope so regrowth starts from zero.
Yes, as long as the roof is safe to walk and not covered in ice. We work through most of the winter when temperatures are above 20 degrees Fahrenheit and there is no active snow load. If a roof is iced over, we schedule the job for the next thaw window. Moss goes dormant in the cold but does not die, so a winter treatment still stops it from spreading.
Moss needs three things: shade, moisture, and a rough surface to grab. North-facing slopes in Surrey stay damp longer after rain and snowmelt, and the freeze-thaw cycle pushes spores into the gaps between shingles. Clogged gutters make it worse by backing water up under the eaves. Once moss takes hold, it holds moisture against the shingle mat and slowly lifts the tabs.
