Housing around Dungannon
Dungannon sits on a hill, and many houses in the older parts of the town are terraced or semi-detached with slate or older concrete tile roofs. The town has expanded with a lot of newer estates, and the countryside around it, towards Coalisland, Moy and Ballygawley, has many detached houses and bungalows. Larger rural homes often have complex roofs with dormers, valleys and several chimney stacks, which are exactly the places moss likes to build up.
Moss, trees and shelter
Many homes in this area also have large gardens with established trees close to the house, which drop leaves into gutters each autumn and keep the roof shaded through the summer. Trimming back branches that overhang the roof is one of the simplest ways to help a cleaned roof stay clean for longer.
East Tyrone is gentler, more sheltered countryside than the hills further west, with plenty of mature hedgerows and trees around rural homes. Shelter is great for the garden but it keeps roofs shaded and damp, and falling leaves add to the debris in gutters. Lichen is common on older roofs here and tends to need a biocide treatment as well as cleaning, because it clings to the tile surface.
What we offer in Dungannon

Complex roofs and chimneys
Larger rural homes around Dungannon often have dormers, hipped ends, valleys and more than one chimney stack. These features create sheltered corners where moss collects first, and they are also the areas most easily damaged by someone walking on the roof. The long reach of the air pole lets us work on these areas from a safe position. If a particular spot, such as a heavily stained ridge, needs a softwash or careful pressure wash instead, we will mark it clearly on your quote and explain why.

Do you travel to Dungannon?
Yes. Dungannon and East Tyrone are part of our regular area, reached from Omagh via Ballygawley.
Can you deal with lichen on an older roof?
Yes. Lichen usually needs a biocide treatment after cleaning, which lets it weather away over the following months.
Do you clean gutters at the same time?
Yes. We clear moss from the gutters after a roof clean, and full gutter clearing can be added.
