Rain and moss in Tipperary
Nenagh is the wettest of the three Tipperary towns here at 1,035 mm a year, and Thurles the driest at 974 mm (Met Éireann). Clonmel ranks 12th wettest of the 26 county towns on this site, with 287 mm from December to February alone.
Average rain a year, 1991–2020: our mean of Met Éireann's 1 km grid within 3 km of each town.
Drier than the west, but shade, trees and north-facing slopes still grow moss (RoofQuote.ie). May is the driest month from April to September in Clonmel, at 68 mm: a good time for the clean to dry in.

Houses and roofs in Tipperary
The BER area is the area insulated, not the slope: a pitched roof's slope is larger, so a real roof is often bigger than this. Tipperary has 59,347 households in a house. Older roofs mean older, more porous concrete tiles and more slate, the roofs that need the gentlest clean.
The largest towns, Census 2022 (CSO): Clonmel (18,369), Nenagh (9,895), Thurles (8,185), Carrick-on-Suir (5,752), Roscrea (5,542).

What a soft wash costs for your roof
One tap: roughly how big the roof is. The answer is a published Irish soft wash rate times your area.
Published soft wash rate × your roof area
€1,080 to €2,520
90 m² at RoofQuote.ie's published €12 to €28 a m² for soft wash roof cleaning (VAT not stated). Our multiplication, not a quote. WestClean, a Tuam company, publishes €300 to €450 for a soft wash on a roof this size (small semi-detached, 70 to 90 m²). The sources are far apart.
- A biocide treatment on top is published at €4 to €10 a m² extra (RoofQuote.ie), or €150 to €400 as an add-on (HP Roofing).
- Gutter clearing is €80 to €200, often bundled (HP Roofing).
- Cleaning a house is at the reduced VAT rate, 13.5% (Revenue). Ask whether the price includes it.
How this is worked out
The roof area you pick, times RoofQuote.ie's published soft wash rate a m². Where WestClean publishes a price for that size of roof, it's shown too. The multiplication is ours. Rates read on 3 November 2026. The roof area is the slope, not the floor: a two-storey semi's roof is often 70 to 90 m². Moss thickness, pitch, height and access move the price. It's an estimate, never a quote.
