i,ve cleaned a couple of roofs of moss etc. providing the pitch of the roof isnt too steep its quite a doddle,although quite time consuming (depending on size obviously). i simply use a wallpaper scraper starting on the top row of tiles and work my way down. remember a large amount of the moss will roll into the gutter so allow time to clear it out. also if the moss has been there a long time it will leave a light coloured patch where it was.tell the customer this might happen & there wont be any comebacks,it`ll still look a lot better anyway. make sure you get a good price cos they`re not gonna go up there. kev

Used to walk about up there with a pressure washer then when sense kicked in did it with a lance with a 90 degree angle ( it kicks upwards and could push you backwards) from gutter level.Then attatched a drain snake to an unger extension pole to reach further and then went in for wall washing and gutter cleaning. Its hard work and cause no one else is mad enough you should charge ludicrous prices.
I dont bother now a wfp is easier.
