A moss-covered, streaked roof isn't just an eyesore. Moss, lichen and black algae trap moisture against your tiles and slowly eat into them. Action Roofing's licensed roofers clean tile, terracotta, concrete and Colorbond roofs across Sydney safely, with soft wash or pressure cleaning matched to your roof, and finish every job with a biocide treatment that slows regrowth.
Sydney's humidity, regular rain and shaded gardens make roofs a perfect home for moss, lichen and black algae. Left alone, that growth holds water against your tiles, lifts the surface coating, blocks valleys and gutters, and turns a roof you paid good money for into the worst-looking one on the street. A professional roof cleaning in Sydney reverses all of that, and done properly it buys your roof years.
The difference with Action Roofing is who's actually on your roof. We're not a pressure-washing crew, we're licensed roofers. While we clean, we check your ridge capping, flashings, valleys and broken tiles, so you find out about a small problem now instead of a leak later.
From terracotta and concrete tile to Colorbond and metal, across Western Sydney, the Hills District and the North Shore, we clean every roof type, and we'll tell you honestly whether a clean is all you need or whether the roof would be better off restored.

Every roof material cleans differently, and the wrong method strips coatings and cracks tiles. Here's how we treat each one. Every job is completed by licensed roofers, not subcontracted handymen.
Concrete and terracotta tiles are the most common roofs across Western Sydney and the Hills. We assess the coating first, then clean at the right pressure, or soft wash, to lift moss and lichen without blowing the colour off your tiles.

Moss and lichen hold moisture against the tile and slowly lift the surface. It's the most common reason shaded Hills District and Western Sydney roofs get booked in for a clean.
We soft wash or pressure clean to lift the growth, then apply a biocide that kills it at the root so it stays gone far longer than a simple rinse.
