Advice needed re cleaning of swimming pool conny roof

[Smurf]

This seems a noval way to use a backpack sprayer and how the trigger & more importantly the nozzle fits onto the wfp don't you think?

Could be used in other ways too like dispensing chems when cleaning grotty plastic gutters etc.

I was not interested in buying one tuffers but how they put it together intrested me. As you should know by now I'm a real tight arse when it comes to spending dosh. Also I can't be doing with pump up sparyers on large jobs either as I'm rather lazy too./emoticons/biggrin.png

All went well with the swimming pool conny clean today (with one particular exception). The water fed pole was a delight to use. It would have been a nightmare doing this clean trad style.

The one exception?.......well I was on the last few roof panels, stood about ten foot up on my combi ladder when it suddenly slid away from the conny. I went down with it and landed smack on my arse on top of the ladder. Luckily, I wasnt hurt.....just a little embarressed. I finished the job with my regular ladder. Will not be using the combi ladder for that type of job again.....when used as a small ladder its feet just dont have any grip at all.

Did you do before and after pics @mrtaytay?

Glad it all went swimmingly well apart from your ladder fall. Just goes to show how easy things can happen and all that was hurt was your pride thank goodness.

Did you do beforinterior and after pics @mrtaytay?

Taken some pics.....will take a few more tomorrow....got the Interior to do. It was 34 degrees inside the conny today, with all the windows open!

Yes, It could have been worse smurf. I have never trusted that ladder, just occasionally use it when my main ladder is too big for the job. I will be purchasing a smaller titan ladder with safety feet shortly.

Ps....I must still have had the ladder at a bad angle though

Tap water fed pole @Tuffers so not a fully fledged member of the stick waver club just yet

It's easy done so be careful and best you get/use some sort of safety device for your ladders not just safety feet either.

hopefully nobody saw the fall as that is the worst thing and hopefully your all right....me i hate step ladders.....dont have any at the mo as the last pair just went snap...and left me hanging on too my plasterboard ceiling ....which you cant really hang on too...

good review of the pole then mr taytay...bearing in mind i want one soon...i have done a runner from a custy who has nearly finished an extension which looks impossible to trad...its lovely leaded..over a very wide bay...so i cant wait much longer...she has my email

Unforunately, the custy was sat in the garden at the time of the fall.....I was up on my feet by the time he got round to where i was.

Why is the leaded extension impossible to trad?

 

[mrtaytay]

Before and after photos.....you cant tell much difference to be honest.......but there was lots of green on the roof before I started!...honestly..lol.

I was sweating my gonads off today doing the inside of the conny!!!

Nice job :thumbsup:

 

[cheapncheerful]

lovely job mr taytay...nice photos...made my arms ache looking at it....and i could see the difference./emoticons/smile.png

you could easy trad it of a ladder with someone to foot the ladder....but i all alone....and mr smurf will tell me off if i try to do it...and they are new windows with stickers over and on the frames i am hoping the builder gets to clean them off first....its just the tiled bay comes out too far....the builder hasnt finished the insides yet so hopefully thats a future problem!
