Wellington homes are constantly exposed to wind, rain, and moisture, creating ideal conditions for moss, mould, and lichen to grow on roofs. Over time, this organic buildup can damage roofing materials, block gutters, and reduce the lifespan of your roof.
Professional roof cleaning is essential for maintaining your property and preventing costly repairs. At Metro Water Blasting, we provide specialist roof cleaning services across Wellington, using safe soft wash treatments that eliminate moss and prevent regrowth.

What Is Roof Treatment?
Roof cleaning involves applying a specialised treatment that kills moss, mould, and lichen.
This process:
• Eliminates organic growth
• Prevents regrowth over time
• Restores roof appearance gradually
• Protects roofing materials
Unlike high-pressure cleaning, soft wash treatment avoids damage and is the preferred method for most roofs.
