House,
Windows, including a conservatory
Fascias, soffits, guttering
Garage door
Plus 15 panel  conservatory roof

This guy reckons about an hour.

Where am I going wrong?

[Dry Clean]

The whole property wouldn't have had more than a months worth of dirt on it, handy vent free windows, no gable end fascia's,no soffits and so on, wouldn't it be great if everything we cleaned was that easy.

[John Mart]

Mad. I'd say that was a morning's job easily.

[Shrek]

Bull an hour lol

1st clean on that house could take 40 mins

Sfg 30/40 minutes

Conservatory roof 40 minutes

Garage door 5 minutes

He did

windows 15 minutes (1st clean?)

Sfg 15 minutes

Conservatory roof & windows 25 minutes

Garage door 5 minutes

Ok.....

That conny roof was quite lightly soiled. And everything else seemed clean to start with.

BUT the spray nozzle for the finials seemed worth a thought.

In real life nearly every customer who wants a conny roof done waits 'til it is much worse than that!

We do loads of jobs like this video but there is no way you will do that in an hour I would say two people would take 1:5 hours to do it on your own I would alow 2-2:5 hours  that’s a reasonable size conservatory but it’s a polycarbonate roof so will not take as long to clean as a glass one : I think you will find that’s an ionics promotional video the back doors are open but if shut think it will say ionics demo van on it

[deeege]

No chance anybody is cleaning a property like that properly in “about an hour”.

I’d be looking at half a day to do that properly and would charge accordingly.

All his faffing about with separate poles and  solutions would take the best part of an hour before he’s even started.

[Walter Mitty]

One hour seems a bit light to me, but that nozzle and foam set up looks interesting because some finials don't cope so well with a brush pushed against them.  I suspect the foam and nozzle were the key to reducing the time.
I reckon he had a decent break after finishing because he didn't look like a guy who had recently completed an hour's graft.

[SB Cleaning]

He would of been a lot more than an hour..

He looked like an amateur....I could tell by the way he was attempting to clean the front door

[dazmond]

Its absolute BS that video......the conny alone would take an hour at least...more like 90 mins,an hour for the fascias and garage doors and 30 mins for the windows....

It's defo a 3 hour job from pulling up to driving off.ive done loads of jobs like these over the years.

I'd just use a backpack to apply my chemical of choice(virosol)and use hot WFP on the whole job,no messing about with shower heads or nozzles....I'd also scrub the finials with my brush(they come up cleaner!)....

A totally misleading video IMO....

[JandS]

Not a bit of muck on the roof under the finials.
Even something that clean would take about 3 hours.
Did one similar to that but a lot dirtier and booked it in for a full day and it took that long.
Well 09.30 to 16.00...had to do the soffit and gutters twice on the conservatory, once with UBIK then again by hand using bronze wool and virtually pure UBIK.

An hour my ar53. Bet he didn't price it at an hours rate!

£40 the lot!

Plus I reckon he's a woofter

[John Mart]

Plus I reckon he's a woofter

Takes one to know one.

[DM.]

Bet its his own house, set of ladders clamped next to the conservatory,  back doors open at 6 mins in.. but closed through rest of video.
Also being trad, how does the landing window being frosted help him with the job? you either clean it properly or not?

Billy Whizz if done in an hour.

[alank]

I couldn't do it in an hour neither could my employees or subcontractor if someone else can than fair enough as for the foamy snake oil I'm out

[rosskesava]

£650 for the spray pump, £50 for the foam cleaner and £32 for the spray nozzle.

I know Ionics go OTT with their prices but £650 for a battery operated pump sprayer?

£650 for a battery operated pump sprayer 😂😂😂. How much does muscle power cost?
£50 for 4x1 litre of foam? I bet he used 50 quids worth on that job alone. Now then, where is his profit?

Gardiners back pack and clx pole with a spray nozzle and Virosol will do just as good a job for about £250
