I've Seen Worse

Oh dear smurf that's a nasty one. After shots of that one will impress me no doubt.

Was one of the bad ones I seem to get more often now.

Got to go back tomorrow to do the inside that happens to be filthy too. Oh deep joy!

I should have been clearing and clearing the guttering. fascia and soffits of the house first but has a total of 22 house martin nests which most are in use so will have to go back at the end of September when they have buggered off. :Image13:

 
Nice mate, how do you clean the inside of the roof or what's the best way? Step ladders to rub the inside frames with cloth?

 
Here is a list of the basic kit I use for interior conservatory deep cleaning.



1. Tall enough step ladder - Abru 6 rung combi class 1 step ladder is tall enough to do most like that safely.

Another option is to erect a working platform but I find working from a ladder quicker and safe enough myself.

2. Vacuum cleaner - if required for large amount of dead bugs, cobwebs etc.

3. Bucket of hot water with ubik in it - change water when required.

4. Micro cloths - use one constantly rung out so just damp to wash over frames & dry with others

5. White none scratch pad/sponge pot scrubbers - helps to remove stubborn marks & bug poo on plastic.

6. Crevice hand brush - comes in very handy to get grime out of crevices, mouldings & corners when rapping a damp micro cloth around it.

7. Floor micro mops & clean spare micro heads - sometimes used to clean plastic roofs quickly from the ground.

8. Magic sponge

9. Upvc cream & solvent cleaner - only used when required.

10. Broom & dustpan & brush

11. Trad gear for glass

Hope this helps?

Jesus smurf that's a lot of gear lol, I tried pole with squeegee on end and mop but it kept running down my arm and all going in my face, not very professional. /emoticons/unsure.png

 
I like to do a professional job and charge accordingly :Image13:

true mate don't suppose you would let off how much you charged for that roof??? /emoticons/wink.png

 
Dont worry about what other people charge it is totally irrelevant.

Take prices quoted with a pinch of salt. Seen people claim £400 this, £200 that, £1000 this. Then take a closer look at them. :Image4: :Image9:

 
Yeah I know I just want to know if I'm pricing roofs at the right price if you know what I mean, I don't care what people are earning mate

 
I roughly charge 1.5 x the price of cleaning the outside depending how bad it is. .
