Proven Conservatory Roof Cleaning Service Using A 100% Soft Wash Approach (2024 Maintenance Blueprint)
Wondering how to clean your conservatory roof? Or perhaps you need a full conservatory roof cleaning service? We manually brush and cleanse the roof (or all of your conservatory) both safely and effectively. Our goal when cleaning the roofs of conservatories is always to make it look as close to brand new as humanly possible. That’s clean, clear and free from debris or nuisance organic matter which can lead to costly damage.
Through our extensive experience of conservatory roof cleaning we’ve noticed a couple of things. one, that suppliers are super motivated to sell you their product. However, two, most of the time they don’t view it’s maintenance as a profitable add-on service to offer. Simply put, supply and fitter normally want to build your conservatory and move on. This can pose a challenge for you, the customer, who wants to protect the value of their asset as well as keeping it the best condition (both visually and functionally).
There are may reasons you might have a conservatory. Perhaps you wanted a different room to relax, or you actually need additional indoor space. Whatever the reason, we’re sure that uninhibited natural light through the roof and glass is very important to you. Unfortunately this build up of algae, moss and general grime is inevitable for all of your buildings exterior.
Please Note That If Conservatory Roofs Are Left Unattended For Too Long They Become Almost Impossible To Restore
The good news is that conservatory roof cleaning keeps your conservatory looking its best all year round. Crucially, cleaning also prevents debris from building up on the roof and gutters. The frustrating reality is that over time, algae will take root externally, and mould/mildew can get out of control internally. Our recommendation is not that you must commit to a monthly cleaning schedule. An annual conservatory clean should do the trick, and in some cases, twice a year might be necessary.
Our Method
Cleaning conservatories doesn’t need to be difficult. However there are some potential landmines that need to be avoided like using high pressure which will cause costly damage.
We never use ‘jet’ spays on conservatories and strongly advise you to avoid using them for this task. High pressure is likely to damage the seals, ultimately causing leaks that are be expensive to repair.
We use a gentle soft wash system which carefully cleanses and restores your conservatory. Our chemical treatment wash both cleans visible and invisible microorganisms. This returns the roof back to how clean it was when you purchased it and will leave it looking cleaner for longer.
- Cleaning the final dressings on top of the roof.
- Cleaning the support struts that run between the panels.
- Cleaning the glass/ plastic roof panels.
- Clearing out the gutter.
- Cleaning of the framework and glass around the conservatory.

A Common Myth Regarding Conservatory Roof Moss Build-up
A small number of our previous customers have mistakenly believed that letting moss build up will create a ‘natural’ insulated conservatory roof. We like this optimism, but unfortunately this will only create a future need for replacement conservatory roof panels 🤦. A more effective way to have a warmer interior would be to search for high quality conservatory roof blinds. Of course, the most important factor in insulation is it’s original construction – was it build right by a trusted trader who didn’t cut corners. A warm conservatory roof is a healthy polycarbonate or glass structure.
Warm Conservatory Roofs also known as Solid Conservatory Roofs or Tiled Conservatory Roofs are a great alternative to a traditional conservatory roof. A Warm Conservatory Roof offers a fully insulated Roof for all year round comfort. Our warm conservatory roofs use a solid tiled roof which is fully customisable as you can have a Velux window or even a Full Length Glass Panel option.
Conservatory Roof Replacement Cost
Being forced into a conservatory roof replacement can be a costly experience. The cost to replace a conservatory roof ranges from £2,000 for a very small polycarbonate roof, all the way up to £30,000 for a high-end glass structure in an area like London. The price is dependent on the size of the roof, style, material and geographical location. Most conservatories will be in the £5000 – £8000 range for the average homeowner.
Although not an astronomical amount to fully replace an important part of your home’s structure, it’s still significant. With the cost of living crisis affecting the majority of British people, having to fork out this kind of money is a real gut-wrench. Even though it’s true to say replacing conservatory roof is inevitable eventually, a premature replacement is unnecessary and available. Regular maintenance through the simple act of conservatory roof cleaning, can be enough to keep this ‘last resort’ scenario at bay for as long as possible.
Conservatory Roof Repairs
Conservatory roof repairs can be relatively reasonably priced, but depending where you live, sourcing a reliable trader can be a challenge. If your roof leaks when it rains, you have no choice but to resolve this as a matter of urgency. Once again, maintaining your roof through professional conservatory cleaning is the best way to preserve it’s integrity and prolong it’s longevity
