Why manual scrape + biocide is the most popular choice in Co. Meath
Roughly 75% of homeowners across Navan, Ashbourne, Trim, Dunshaughlin and Ratoath choose manual profile-blade moss scraping followed by soft-wash biocide saturation (€580 to €740 on a typical semi-detached house). Because zero water pressure is used on the tiles, the factory acrylic surface coating on concrete tiles and the natural cleavage of slate are 100% preserved, attic felt is never flooded, and the biocide clears remaining lichen and algae over the following weeks while protecting the roof for 3 to 5 years.

Meath roof cleaning price questions
How much does roof cleaning cost in Co. Meath in 2026?
In Co. Meath, manual profile-blade moss removal followed by gutter clearance and a professional soft-wash biocide treatment costs €450 to €650 for a 2–3 bed terraced house, €580 to €850 for a typical 3–4 bed semi-detached house in Navan, Ashbourne, Trim, Dunshaughlin or Ratoath, and €820 to €1,150+ for a 4–5 bed detached house or large bungalow. If you choose a full controlled low-pressure wash for instant same-day colour restoration plus biocide, add €100 to €150.
Is high-pressure jet-washing bad for concrete and slate roof tiles?
Yes — blasting a roof at 2,500–3,000 PSI strips the protective acrylic surface coating and factory sand granules off concrete interlocking tiles (such as Roadstone, Marley or Tegral tiles), leaving the concrete porous so moss grows back twice as fast and frost can crack the tile. High-pressure lances pointed up the roof also drive water over the tile overlaps onto the breathable sarking felt, risking attic leaks, and walking directly on unsupported tiles snaps brittle nibs. Safe roof cleaning in Meath uses profile-shaped telescopic scrapers and low-pressure soft-wash biocide from scaffold towers and roof ladders.
How does soft-wash biocide roof treatment work and how long does it last?
After 95% of bulky moss cushions are physically scraped from the tile faces and overlaps using custom-moulded blades, the roof is saturated at low pressure (garden-hose pressure) with a biodegradable quaternary ammonium biocide (DDAC/BAC). The biocide penetrates microscopic pores in concrete and slate, killing remaining moss rhizoids, green algae, black biofilm and white/yellow lichen spores at the root. Over the following weeks, rainfall naturally washes away dead organic matter and the residual barrier prevents moss regrowth for 3 to 5 years.
Will scraping roof moss block my gutters and downpipes?
Never when done properly. Before scraping starts, our local Meath specialist disconnects or plugs every rainwater downpipe outlet so zero moss can enter your underground storm drains. Once the roof is scraped, all gutters are emptied using a high-reach gutter vacuum and hand tools, all fallen moss is bagged and removed from site, and your patios, footpaths and windows are rinsed clean.
