Ridge MeadowExterior Cleaning in Maple Ridge & Pitt Meadows
Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, at the wet end of the valley, where a north-facing roof greens over faster than anywhere else we go.
In the Area
The Wet End Of The Valley
Ridge Meadows takes the weather the rest of the region only hears about. Rainfall climbs as you move east up the Fraser, and against the Golden Ears the cloud stalls and empties — so moss, algae and lichen out here are not an occasional problem, they are the standing condition. A north-facing roof slope in Silver Valley or Websters Corners will green over in a season and a half, and the shaded half of a driveway does much the same.
The two municipalities are not alike, though. Pitt Meadows is flat, agricultural and dyked, with a compact residential core and a great deal of open, exposed ground. Maple Ridge climbs from the river up into hillside subdivisions and acreages, which brings grade, gravel, outbuildings and roof pitches that have to be worked from above. Most of what we are asked for here is roof work, gutters and soft-washing, in roughly that order, and most of it is residential — the town centres carry the usual strata and retail frontage, and that gets the same crew.
What we plan for here
- The wettest ground we cover — moss is a condition, not an event
- Pitt Meadows flat and open; Maple Ridge on the hill
- North-facing slopes green over first, and fastest

Common Questions
Questions We Get Asked In Ridge Meadow
The things people actually ask before booking here, answered the way we would answer them on the phone. If yours is not on the list, call — you will get a straight answer from someone who does the work.
It covers both. Ridge Meadows is the pair — Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows — and they are one service area for us, priced the same way. The map above is centred on Maple Ridge only because that is where most of the housing sits; Pitt Meadows is immediately west of it and is fully inside the area.
No, and we would talk you out of anyone who offers to. High pressure strips granules, forces water up under the courses and behind flashings, and leaves the moss root structure in place so it grows back within a season anyway — a roof that looks dramatically better for a year and then fails several years early. Moss comes off at low pressure with a treatment that kills the root, and out here that is a great deal of what we do.
More often than one at the west end of the region, because the growing conditions are simply better for moss. Rather than publish an interval we look at the pitch, the aspect, the surrounding trees and how much regrowth is already showing, and tell you what that particular roof needs. A preventative treatment after a clean slows the regrowth considerably and is usually the cheaper way to hold it.
Gutters before the autumn rain rather than after the first storm — the single most useful piece of timing anywhere in this region, and it matters more here than most places. Roof and moss work runs through the milder parts of the year. Anything with a dry window on it, sealing especially, is harder to place out here than in Langley, so it is worth asking early rather than late.
Yes, across the built-up parts of both municipalities and out to the acreages around them. Travel is included in the price of the job; out on the acreages a travel fee may apply to an on-site visit, and the usual $120 minimum job size applies. If your property sits well beyond the edge of the map above, ask anyway — the answer takes one phone call, and we cross the odd boundary for the right job.
