Worth noting
Before touching a slate roof, the first step is to check that it contains no asbestos: a roof that contains asbestos is not cleaned. Here, the slates contained no asbestos, which made the moss removal and then the painting possible. Painting is always done after the moss removal, on a different day. How to recognise a roof at risk: does my roof contain asbestos? And to compare painting with the colourless treatment: water repellent or paint: which to choose?
