We provide a wide range of Roofing services here at DRS, covering Reading, Berkshire and surrounding areas. The use of high powered jet washes is not recommended as it can damage the surface of the slate or tile, thus reducing its expected life considerably. Moss and lichen tends to flourish in rural areas or where trees are nearby and where there are shady, damp conditions.
Steeper pitched roofs are less likely to support moss and lichen growth as they shed water more quickly than low pitched roofs. By contrast, north facing and shallow roofs tend to remain damper longer and attract the growth of mosses and lichens. In normal circumstances, the growths are not harmful to the tiles or slates.

Aaron responded to my plea for help message, due to a water leak, on Sunday evening and was with me first thing on Monday morning. Not only was Aaron's repair perfect but his passion and knowledge about roofing was second to none. I will be highly recommending DRS to all my friends and family. Thank you Aaron.
