Moss on Runfold roofs retains moisture, blocks valleys and accelerates freeze-thaw damage. We remove moss using a dry soft-brush method — no pressure washing — and apply biocide treatment to prevent regrowth for 3–5 years.
Runfold's specific conditions — Runfold sits on the sandy greensand ridge south-east of Farnham. Relatively exposed with good drainage. The greensand substrate means more weather exposure than sheltered valley properties. — create 1970s–1990s-specific moss growth patterns. Runfold's greensand ridge position gives it more weather exposure than sheltered valley properties. Sandy substrate foundation movement contributes to accelerated ridge mortar cracking on some properties. Understanding the local microclimate affects how we specify the treatment for each property.

"Free quote, no obligation, fair price. The work was done to a high standard and they explained everything clearly. Exactly what you want from a local roofer."
Runfold's position on the greensand ridge south-east of Farnham gives properties here more weather exposure than sheltered valley locations. The sandy substrate also means foundation movement is slightly more prevalent than on clay or chalk — a subtle contributor to ridge mortar cracking that we see on some older Runfold properties. Exposed south-west facing elevations need more frequent ridge inspection than sheltered properties.

3–5 years depending on aspect and tree cover. Runfold properties with significant tree canopy or north-facing slopes are at the lower end. We recommend re-treatment every 4–5 years.
Pressure washing damages tile surfaces, blasts spores across the roof, and forces water under tiles. It creates more problems than it solves. We never use it.
