@Diwrnach let us know how you get on with quote and after pics if you do the clean...

Its not my job?

 

[Diwrnach]

Wouldn't want it either I am snowed under, not got a spare day (apart from a Sunday) for 6 weeks.

 

[Diwrnach]

My rough aim is to make a minimum of £200 profit a day, I would knock that out in two hours, be off to do another job the same or bigger and be home by 2 easily clearing over £200 more than likely quite a bit more.

Maybe I aim low, but I start at 9:30, home by 2:30 at the latest with £200 bare minimum profit.

I am happy with that.

top man as it happens I've gota put a quote in for this tennis court, Do you use that algo clear for these jobs? And I'm not sure how to price it thinking of just going in at £1500

 

[Diwrnach]

Big jobs I just charge my daily rate plus expenses.

This was the courts I did not all done as you can see, but this was for a friend of the family for a small village tennis club with next to no money so I kind of did it as a bit of a favour price wise, they are advertising my business for me with all their members etc, I did it in one day and charged £250 lol

 

[Diwrnach]

As for doing it I would most definitely kill off the algae first then rotary it, but because it was a cheap as possible job I just did it all rotary, it did it pretty good, took some dicking about to get enough pressure to clean and not destroy.

Eviestevie, once you have pressure washed, if there are still some black marks etc, do you apply your hypo neat? And how long do you leave it on the marks? Sorry to be a pain. P.s. Top tip, cover your hypo barrels with a bin liner. One of my smart sign written tops fell onto the barrel the other day, now its navy with poxy pink spots all over it!
