Roof cleaning in Edinburgh and Central Scotland. Gentle low-pressure soft wash for asphalt, shingle, metal, tile and slate roofs, with HSE-approved biocide treatment. Free quotes.
From asphalt and shingles to metal, tile and slate, Christie's Exterior Cleaning Ltd cleans roofs across Central Scotland using a low-pressure soft wash. The method matters: a roof tile is porous and a high-pressure lance strips its surface, so we work at a pressure the tile can take and let an HSE-approved biocide do the rest. What comes back is the original colour of the roof — on more than one job the difference against the neighbouring property has been the thing customers comment on first. Where a few tiles have cracked or slipped, we can swap out the worst of them so the roof is watertight again before we leave.
Dark streaking down the slope, a roof that looks grey or green next to a neighbour's, algae spreading on shaded or north-facing pitches, and grit or debris collecting in the gutters below the roofline. If the roof is heavily carpeted in moss rather than dirty, that is a scrape job rather than a wash — see moss removal.
Christie's Exterior Cleaning soft washes asphalt, shingle, metal, tile and slate roofs, then treats them with an HSE-approved biocide for long-lasting protection. We also work on large properties, where a roof can take a couple of days rather than an afternoon, and can replace badly cracked or slipped tiles found during the clean. Roof cleaning is commonly booked alongside gutter clearing, since debris comes down into the gutters during the job. Call 0131 283 6467 for a fixed-rate quote.

Christie's Exterior Cleaning Ltd has completed roof cleans in Edinburgh, Musselburgh, Livingston, Dunbar, Melrose, Hawick and Shotts, using the low-pressure wash method on each. Central Scotland's damp climate and tree cover make algae build-up on roofs close to universal. If you are searching for roof cleaning near me in Central Scotland, Christie's Exterior Cleaning is a NEBOSH, CPD and LANTRA certified team trained in the correct techniques.
Christie's Exterior Cleaning assesses roof type, pitch, access and the extent of growth before quoting, and says honestly whether the roof needs a wash or a scrape. On the day, access is set up safely, the roof is soft washed section by section, and the HSE-approved biocide is applied afterwards. Gutter clearing can be included in the same visit where debris has come down from the roof, and everything is tidied before we leave.
Christie's Exterior Cleaning's team is LANTRA certified in correct roof cleaning techniques, ensuring a thorough clean while protecting your roof's integrity. We are fully insured with public liability cover up to £1 million, and all risk assessments are carried out by NEBOSH qualified personnel.

No. Christie's Exterior Cleaning uses a low-pressure soft wash with HSE-approved treatment rather than harsh pressure washing, which strips the surface off a tile and shortens the life of the roof.
A soft wash lifts algae, dirt and light growth off the tiles. Where moss has built up into a thick carpet, it has to be physically scraped off first — that is moss removal, and it is a different job with different pricing. We tell you which one your roof needs when we quote.
Yes. Cracked or slipped tiles often only become visible once a roof is clean. Where we find them we can change out the worst ones so the roof is watertight again.
Most domestic roofs are a day. Large properties can take a couple of days, which we will tell you up front rather than on the day.
