A customer wanted to know what, in our experience, is the best way to soft wash concrete roof tiles.
We told him that it’s important to first determine if the concrete roof tiles have a surface coating. Some do, some do not.
If they are coated, click here to learn the principles of treating coated artificial slates, which are similar to the principles of treating coated concrete tiles.
If they are not coated they will likely have had a "through-colour" dye added during manufacture, as in the photo above, in which case soft washing them is straight-forward.
Nowadays we treat nearly all roofs with Bio Cleanze (click here to visit our roof cleaning page which explains in detail) unless a customer has a particularly strong reason for wanting rapid results, such as preparing to move home.
In which case we would tackle it with the more labour-intensive process of treating with Lighting Cleanze.

It's a free resource for people wanting to learn about the soft washing industry, to expand an existing business, or build a new business.
Soft washing reduces, or even eliminates, the need to use high-pressure washing.
Instead, once the build up of algae, lichen, fungus and mould – the root causes of properties looking "dirty" – has been treated, the natural "self-cleansing" of sun, rain and wind removes the surface residue through time.
By educating the cleaning trade and public about soft washing we are helping develop an industry that offers sustainable treatments to clean and maintain exterior hard surfaces.
