How much would you expect to spend to have moss removed from the roof

of a small 2 bed semi detached bungalow in the South East?

Over 1k if it's anything like the quotes a friend had.

It depends what method they use and state of mossiness. If they just jet wash it then a few hundred quid. If they use the airpole (dry method) and treat it with anti-moss stuff afterwards it could be 1000+

I’d say approx £600. I paid that a few years back on a 3 bed semi and as everything has gone up in price, I’d imagine even though you’re in a 2 bed bungalow, it’ll be similar to that now.

Personally, I would leave the moss alone.

A group of men trampling on your roof will cause far more damage than moss ever will.

It was a quote for £1000. I thought that was a bit much.
They don’t trample on the roof, @LauraNorda , they use a brush on a long pole.

That's why the dry method is better (albeit more expensive) as they use a pole that detaches the moss using pressurised air and then spray it down with a long pole spray thing - they don't stand on the roof to do it. Problem for us was the moss was constantly blocking gutters, which are not that accessible (need to climb over from neighbour's property and she's not the most accommodating).
