Minimum charge for any type of roof clean on a small bungalow would be £1000 plus VAT prices go up from there depending on size and difficulty

Can you use a univalve with a gardiner backpack- does the pump have pressure cut off?
Cheers👍

Poor taste.

There. I said it.
As a moderator can’t you delete the offending post?

My booster pump is 375 watts but no idea what it costs to run per hour , but it’s not going to break the bank

As its a mains pump its drawing around 1.5 to 2A an hour.

used twice a day  :D

Try 20 times a day and you`ll be lucky if it made its 1st Birthday.

Mine gets used 20 times a day and is 3 years old.

Isnt yours like triggers broom though ?  its an extreme 20 isnt it  ;D

I can only go on my own experience, ive had 2 and both poles i snapped both top sections within a year



Heavy handed  I think , usually get 15-18 months out of the  top section on a 22 that’s used 8 hours a day 5 days a week ,

I would say if you arent sure try to work out how long it will take plus cost of biocide.

I think the better question to be asking is how long will it take and go from there.

I reckon a day so £400 plus scaffold plus chemical, £500-£600 ?

Seems about right

smudger is missed ... he was great for this type of work.  lots of knowledge  :'(

I would spray with hypo and come back a few weeks later and scrape it. I would charge £500 but for a friend/customer then I would be happy with £400. I did one last year and bought a box set of scrapers from Spinaclean which fit a wfp. Did it from a ladder and scraped it down and into a bag, never again, hard work. In future I would use my scaffold but I mainly just spray and clearout gutters for £280 and my customers are happy with the job.

I know but when I looked at the general cleaning section, it seems to have Tumbleweed floating around. No one has posted their for a month  ::)roll

All sections of the forum have been slowly in decline over the past few years
