As a homeowner in Worcestershire, you take pride in your conservatory, and a crucial part of its maintenance is cleaning the polycarbonate roof. At Webster Roofcare Limited, we understand the importance of regular cleaning to ensure your conservatory remains a beautiful and functional space. In this article, we'll provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to clean your polycarbonate conservatory roof.

Over time, your polycarbonate conservatory roof can accumulate dirt, algae, and moss, which can obstruct natural light and affect the overall appearance of your conservatory. Regular cleaning is essential to maintain the glazing and prevent damage to the roof. Additionally, cleaning your conservatory roof can help reduce the risk of water damage and ensure a safe and secure structure.

To clean your polycarbonate conservatory roof, you'll need the following materials:

• A soft-bristled brush or a long-handled brush with soft bristles
• A mild detergent or a specialized conservatory roof cleaning solution
• Warm water
• A hose with a spray nozzle (optional)
• A ladder or scaffolding (ensure it's safe and secure)

1. Remove Debris: Start by removing any loose debris, such as leaves or twigs, from the roof using a soft-bristled brush or a long-handled brush with soft bristles.
2. Mix Cleaning Solution: In a bucket, mix a mild detergent or a specialized conservatory roof cleaning solution with warm water. The recommended dilution ratio is usually 1 part detergent to 10 parts water.
3. Apply Cleaning Solution: Use a soft-bristled brush or a long-handled brush with soft bristles to apply the cleaning solution to the roof. Work from one end of the roof to the other, using horizontal strokes to cover the entire surface.
4. Rinse with Water: Use a hose with a spray nozzle to rinse the roof, starting from the top and working your way down. Ensure the water is not too powerful, as it may damage the polycarbonate material.
5. Remove Algae and Moss: Use a soft-bristled brush or a long-handled brush with soft bristles to gently remove any algae or moss from the roof.
6. Dry the Roof: Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe down the roof and remove any excess water.

• Avoid using high-pressure washes, abrasive materials, or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the polycarbonate material.
• Never use a ladder or scaffolding that's not safe and secure.
• Clean your conservatory roof during a cloudy day or in the early morning/late evening to avoid working in direct sunlight.
• Consider using a solar reflective coating to reduce heat gain and prevent algae growth.
