FAQ
What is the best time of year to kill moss on a driveway?
The optimal time for moss removal is during the spring or early summer months when the weather is warm and dry. This allows the treatment to be most effective and ensures the moss is eliminated before it has a chance to regrow.
Spring and early summer are most effective times because:
- Moss is actively growing, so treatments work faster
- Temperatures are mild (usually above 10°C), which helps biocides activate properly
- You're clearing buildup after winter dampness
Tip: Treat early in spring before moss becomes thick and established.
How do you get rid of moss on tarmac?
We use a combination of mechanical removal and biocide treatment. The moss is first removed using a flat surface cleaner or a pressure washer, and then we apply a biocide to prevent regrowth.
After treatment, we can advise on simple maintenance steps to keep your tarmac looking its best, including routine cleaning schedules and preventative treatments.
