Why Choose Us for Roof Cleaning in Como?
Moss grows 10 to 15mm thick on Como roofs, especially on south-facing slopes under the tree canopy. Pressure cleaning removes it along with lichen and organic buildup that traps moisture. We use controlled pressure, 2,500 to 4,000psi depending on tile type, so we don't damage aged tiles. After cleaning we often apply biocide to slow regrowth. Cleaning is usually a first step before painting, but it's also standalone maintenance every 2 to 3 years. It extends tile life, improves looks, and stops moisture being trapped. The cleaned roof dries faster and you can actually see the tile condition.
Professional roof cleaning in Como addresses the moss and lichen that thrive in river humidity and shade. We don't use harsh pressure that damages aging tiles, Como's pre-1970s homes have fragile surfaces. Controlled low-pressure cleaning combined with biocide treatment removes the moss carpet and prevents regrowth. South-facing and shaded slopes under paperbarks and river red gums recolonise fastest. Most Como homes need cleaning every 2-3 years to prevent moss from trapping moisture and degrading tile surfaces.

Benefits of Roof Cleaning for Como Properties
Strips moss, lichen and grime
Perth roofs grow moss and black lichen in the shaded, south-facing spots. We pressure-clean it all off and get the roof back to its actual colour.
Protects the roof, not just the look
Moss holds moisture against the tiles and works into the joins. Clearing it off stops it lifting tiles and rotting the pointing, so the roof lasts longer.
The right first step before painting
If you're getting the roof painted or restored, it has to be cleaned back to a sound surface first. We do that properly so the coating actually sticks.
Fully insured, careful work
We're covered by $10M public liability and we clean at the right pressure for your roof, so tiles and coatings don't get damaged in the process.
Our Roof Cleaning Process in Como
- 1
Quote and check
We look at the roof's size, pitch and how much growth is on it, then give you a fixed price.
Why it matters: A quick check means an accurate price, not a guess.
- 2
Clear the loose debris
Leaves, sticks and built-up debris come off the roof and out of the valleys and gutters first.
Why it matters: Clearing debris first lets the wash get at the actual surface.
- 3
High-pressure clean
We work top to bottom with the right pressure for the roof type, lifting off moss, lichen, dirt and chalking.
Why it matters: Correct pressure cleans hard without driving water under the tiles.
- 4
Check the roof over
With the roof clean, any cracked tiles, failed pointing or rust shows up clearly, and we'll point out anything that needs attention.
Why it matters: A clean roof is the only time you can really see its condition.
Roof Cleaning in Como - FAQs
Do you provide roof cleaning in Como? ▾

Why does my Como roof get so much moss? ▾
River humidity plus dense tree canopy. South-facing slopes under shade accumulate moss 10-15mm thick. This growth lifts tile edges, traps moisture underneath, and accelerates tile breakdown. Pressure from the Canning River humidity means moss returns fast, Como homes typically need professional cleaning every 2-3 years rather than every 5-7 years like inland suburbs.
Will roof cleaning damage my old Como tiles? ▾
Standard pressure cleaning would. We use controlled low-pressure systems appropriate to tile age. Older tiles get gentler treatment than newer homes. Biocide treatment kills moss without blasting tile surfaces. The cleaning takes longer but protects fragile tiles. Pressure and technique are adjusted per tile type during assessment, that's why professional cleaning matters on aging Como stock.
How much does roof cleaning cost in Perth? ▾
It depends on the size and pitch of the roof and how much moss and growth is on it. Call 08 6388 4492 or request a quote for a fixed price. If you're cleaning ahead of a paint or restoration, we factor it into the overall job.
Can you pressure-clean a metal or Colorbond roof? ▾
Yes. We clean metal and Colorbond roofs as well as tiled ones, at a pressure suited to the surface so the coating isn't damaged.
Will high pressure crack my tiles? ▾
Not when it's done right. We match the pressure to the roof and work in the correct direction so water isn't forced under the tiles. Cracked tiles usually come from inexperienced operators using too much pressure the wrong way.
Does the moss come back? ▾
It can over time in shaded, damp spots. A clean lasts a good while, and if you're painting afterwards the coating slows regrowth considerably.
Do I need cleaning, or a full restoration? ▾
If the tiles and pointing are sound and the roof's just dirty, a clean is all you need. If it's faded and the pointing's gone, cleaning is step one of a restoration. We'll tell you which after a look.

"THESE GUYS DESERVE 6 STARS Our experience with Ryan and his team was nothing short of exceptional—truly a 6-star service. Within a day of sending our request, we received quotes for both properties, which was impressively fast. Initially, I was a bit skeptical, assuming there might be hidden costs or extra charges added once the job started, given how quick the process was. However, that was absolutely not the case. The quoted price was exactly what we paid—no surprises, no extras. UNBELIEVABLE! Ryan and his team were incredibly responsive, coordinating seamlessly with other contractors working alongside them. The crew was extremely efficient and productive throughout the projects, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Ryan and his team for any roof restoration work!"
