spots on my conservatory roof

Yesterday my husband cleaned the moss off of the conseratory roof, but it has left black marks where the moss had grown, can anyone tell me what cleaner will remove this please, getting on the roof is not an option my husband is 78 so I don't think that would be a good idea.

Thanking you Drinda.

    No I don't either, take care of him.

    So I assume he sprayed the stuff form below or even from the bedroom window???

    Whichever, someone does need to get access with a crawler and wash the roof sheets.
    Bit of bleach with some Jeyes fluid works for me, but to go back, it needs scrubbing off.

    Just don't let him do it himself.


    I relate to this as my next door neighbour is 77 and still paints the fasia on his 2 storey house:eek::eek:
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

    Thank you for the reply, but I have googled it now and they say never use bleach, I think I will have to get someone to get up there for me, it is not very high as we live in a bungalow.
    Thanks again.
