When to book in Tawa
Late summer into autumn is the best window for a Tawa roof — dry enough for the biocide to bind, before winter rain.
We apply a non-chlorine biocide algae-stat that inhibits regrowth of moss, mould and lichen without high-pressure blasting. Most Tawa roofs benefit from reapplication every 18–24 months.
