Why Choose Us for Mould Treatment in Applecross?
The tree canopy and river humidity around Applecross create perfect conditions for mould and moss growth on shaded roofs. Biocide treatment kills organic growth and stops it coming back for a couple of years. We apply it after cleaning, and it works best on tile roofs in tree-covered pockets like the streets around Kearns Crescent. It's part of good maintenance if you're in a leafy area. You'll need to do it every couple of years, but it's cheaper than having moss damage the tiles or block your gutters.
Mould grows on Applecross roofs from the combination of 65-70% river humidity and shade under mature trees. It's worst in central Applecross where tree coverage is heaviest. Biocide treatment kills existing growth and slows regrowth, but works best as part of annual maintenance: cleaning, treatment, then regular inspection. Without ongoing care, mould returns in 18-24 months.

Benefits of Mould Treatment for Applecross Properties
Kills it, not just hides it
We treat the moss, lichen, algae and fungus so it dies off at the root, then remove it, rather than just blasting the surface and leaving spores behind to grow straight back.
Protects the roof
Moss and lichen hold moisture against the tiles and work into the pointing. Treating it stops it lifting tiles and breaking down the roof from the surface.
Slows regrowth
A proper treatment leaves the roof clean for far longer than a plain wash, especially on the shaded, damp slopes where growth takes hold first.
Tile and metal roofs
We treat tiled and metal roofs alike, at the right pressure for the surface so the roof isn't damaged in the process.
Our Mould Treatment Process in Applecross
- 1
Assess the growth
We check how heavy the moss, lichen and mould is and where it's worst, usually the shaded southern slopes, and quote a fixed price.
Why it matters: The treatment is matched to how established the growth is.
- 2
Apply treatment
A treatment is applied to kill the moss, lichen, algae and fungus at the root across the affected roof.
Why it matters: Killing it first means it lifts cleanly and doesn't regrow from leftover spores.
- 3
Remove and rinse
The dead growth is cleared off and the roof rinsed down at a pressure suited to the surface.
Why it matters: Clearing the dead material leaves the roof clean and the tiles visible.
- 4
Check the roof
With the roof clean, we point out any cracked tiles, failed pointing or other wear the growth was hiding.
Why it matters: Moss often hides the faults underneath it.

How often does mould come back after treatment? ▾
In tree-heavy areas like central Applecross, maybe 18-24 months if you're not doing regular cleanings. Riverside properties with constant humidity need more frequent treatment, annually with cleaning. It's not a one-off fix, it's part of maintenance.
Does mould treatment damage the roof? ▾
No. Biocide is applied as a fine spray. It kills mould and moss without affecting tiles or paint. It works best when the roof is clean first. We apply it during regular maintenance visits.
How much does roof mould treatment cost in Perth? ▾
It depends on the roof size and how heavy the growth is. Call 08 6388 4492 or request a quote for a fixed price. If you're treating ahead of a paint or restoration, we roll it into the overall job.
What's the difference between mould treatment and a roof clean? ▾
A clean blasts the surface. A treatment kills the moss, lichen and fungus at the root first so it dies off and is far slower to come back. For heavy organic growth, treatment lasts much longer than a wash alone.
Does the moss and mould come back? ▾
Not as fast after a proper treatment. It can return over time in shaded, damp spots, and a roof coating slows it further. A surface-only clean that leaves spores behind grows back within weeks.
Is it safe for my roof and garden? ▾
We treat at the right strength and pressure for the roof type so the surface isn't damaged, and we take care around gardens and downpipes when rinsing off.
Do I need treatment, cleaning, or a full restoration? ▾
Heavy organic growth needs treatment to kill it properly. If the roof's just dirty, a clean does it. If it's also faded with failed pointing, that's a restoration. We'll tell you which after a look.
