Stop lichen and moss before they lift your tiles

Roof Treatment in Auckland

Moss and lichen don't just look bad — left alone, they lift tiles, block valleys and hold moisture against your roof. Our treatment kills growth at the root using low-pressure application built for roofs, not driveways.

Pricing depends on roof pitch, access and growth severity

Our process

What happens on the day

01

Roof inspection

We check tile type, coating condition and growth severity before deciding on treatment strength.

02

Targeted treatment application

A moss and lichen treatment is applied by hand or low-pressure sprayer, working into ridges, valleys and overlaps where growth hides.

03

Controlled die-back period

Treatment keeps working after we leave — moss and lichen dry out and detach naturally over the following weeks, rather than being ripped off wet.

04

Optional gentle rinse

Where needed, we follow up with a soft low-pressure rinse to clear away dead growth without disturbing tiles.

Why it's worth it

The benefits of professional roof treatment

No lifted or cracked tiles

We never use a high-pressure blast directly on tiles — that's the leading cause of roof leaks after a 'clean'.

Slows regrowth for longer

Treating the moss and lichen at the root means it takes longer to return than a wash alone.

Protects your roof's lifespan

Removing moisture-holding growth reduces the chance of trapped damp shortening the life of your roof.

FAQ

Roof Treatment questions

No — treatment uses a targeted spray to kill moss and lichen at low pressure, protecting tiles and coatings. A direct high-pressure blast on a roof risks lifting or cracking tiles, which is why we avoid it.

Most of the die-back happens gradually over the following weeks as the moss and lichen dry out and detach. This is normal and is what protects your tiles long-term.

Yes, we use products that are safe to run off into your gutters and stormwater system, and we can pair treatment with a gutter clean if debris has built up.
