Moss removal by hand, brushing, anti-moss treatment and low-pressure rinsing. In the City of Brussels half the work is done before anyone goes up onto the roof.

What that changes here
In town, cleaning is as much about the neighbours as about the roof. Water and dirt travel over the party wall, and the rinsing ends up on a pavement or a terrace. We protect the surroundings, work in calm weather and empty the gutters before the end of the job — otherwise all the loosened moss ends up in the downpipe.
The City of Brussels runs from the Pentagon to Laeken and Neder-Over-Heembeek: medieval plots with very narrow, very tall houses, 19th-century town houses with concealed box gutters, and further out post-war blocks with flat roofs. On a single job you come across everything — except room to work.
What we get called out for in Brussels
In the City of Brussels half the work is done before anyone goes up onto the roof. Access, permits, occupation of the pavement, the managing agent’s approval: that route sets the schedule. Technically it is most often box gutters, upstands against the neighbouring facade and extension flat roofs — rarely a complete slope.
Brussels porte le code postal 1000 et se situe in the Brussels-Capital Region. Notre équipe part de Grimbergen, à 10 km : nous y planifions le démoussage en même temps que les chantiers de Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, Schaerbeek et Ixelles, pour qu’un déplacement serve plusieurs toitures.

Pour un devis, la visite à Brussels se fixe en général sous quelques jours ouvrés. Nous partons de Grimbergen, à 10 km, et nous groupons nos visites par secteur : si un chantier tourne déjà cette semaine à Molenbeek-Saint-Jean ou Schaerbeek, cela peut aller plus vite. En cas de fuite active, nous venons d’abord bâcher et sécuriser ; le démoussage n’est chiffrée qu’ensuite.
On porous concrete tiles or aged fibre cement slates, a water-repellent treatment has a real effect and clearly slows the return of moss. On natural slate it is almost pointless: the stone absorbs practically no water. We tell you that on site rather than selling it on principle.
Every four to six years for an open roof, every two to three years if it is shaded by trees or faces north. Under broadleaf trees, the build-up of leaves counts as much as the moss: it is the leaves that block the valleys and send water under the covering.
