Power wash it.
To remove moss from a roof there are only two ways to get a good instatnt finish.
1: Power wash
2: Scrape and brush the moss off first then apply a biocide to take care of lichens etc. Will be a couple of months before good results on the biocide.

As per option 1 - A power washer is still the most effective method.
That's a bungalow. With a flat roof 2ft below the bottom of the ladder. Where the washer is sat and the person taking the photo is stood.Picture 1 @Dave Maycock still shows loads of lichens.
Picture 2 (IMO) shows someone that needs to be secured before being sent up a roof.
You are comparing chalk and cheese with those pictures, one is nice flat and yes can be brushed easily and the second would take an age to brush.
As for it taking 'all day' how long should it take? A thorough roof clean is time consuming job. For most we tell the client all day but perhaps it will creep into day two. Longest roof I have done took six day so far. This is why we charge well per roof as it takes time.
What sort of money did you charge for that mateThat's a bungalow. With a flat roof 2ft below the bottom of the ladder. Where the washer is sat and the person taking the photo is stood.
The guy asked a simple questions about he differences of brushing and jet washing. I had two photos to hand that I thought might help. The lichens are still on yes. As we weren't asked to treat the roof. They just wanted the moss removed. To stop it blocking the gutters.
Brushing two pitches of the roof in pic one took 2 hours and 17 minutes. Jet washing 4 pitches like the one in pic number two. Took 6 hours and 48 minutes.
Seemed a relevant response to the title of the thread.

The brush one was £70 only took a couple of hours.What sort of money did you charge for that mate
Oh yes! Fortunately the pressure washer one was a building site. So didn't need to do too muchLooks well though, I'm sure it was a right pain cleaning it all up
Ok sorry t
It's not an attachment for a ladder it's a specific ladder for roofing google it..Ok sorry to ask a off topic question but what the hell is holding that ladder up on there? I have a pressure washing company we do window washing etc. I do you rip sometimes and I'm looking at that like wow that could save me a lot of time. It would be really cool if somebody would just link me where I can buy the attachment to hook onto my letter like that thank you in advance
