I seen a link on here a while back, it was of a guy from ciu, who had converted his slx pole into a pressure washing pole, it was quite a good in fact brilliant way of doing high level cleaning.
Does anybody know how I will find the link again or does any of you guys know who it was or how he done it, I would like him to sort one out for me if he can.

Help always appreciated

Skip to about 5 minutes. They sell these here for around 500 quid upwards, and the lengths go to at least 40ft.

Swapped iphone for ipad now am home, fingers were so cold screen wouldn't work.

Thanks guys, I watched both them videos last night cozy, that's what got me thinking about this, It may well have been lee blast away.
He was just using an slx 22 or there about with a pressure nozzle, on it,  am sure he posted that he would be happy to help anyone out. I will have a scroll through the archives now

Reason being a mc donalds were I clean the windows just paid £500 for some guy to clean the roof tiles right round, now if want a piece of this, 2 pikies turned up with a ladder, and a van mounted machine, with a whirlaway. Ok jobs done but I personally wouldn't be happy but the mcs are !!! It took them the morning 8-12

Anyway I reckon with this pole the job could be done in 3/4 hours max 1 person with free hot drinks while ya work.

I love the barrel of Hypo in the basket with ya!
Don't you use safer stuff?

Alright Richy,

Yes it's a clx 27 with thermoplastic hose. Very light and withstands more than 200 bar and heat

When the nozzle is angled in the right position I can hold the pole in one hand while it spraying up against an elevation.

How do you clean moss of off roofs?

I've been asked to quote 3 very large houses for full exterior cleans and the roofs have a lot of moss on them. I normally sub to a roofing friend and then after the moss is off apply AlgoClear.

Do you pressure clean roofs?

[Jakey boy]

Is the whirlaway any good for roofs?

[Matt.]

If you can find this video av been looking for you will see how easy it is to do, propa amazing.

[Smudger]

Rhino - good god no !!!  Time is money can't wait around for that algoclear to work  

Matty, I think you need to lock this thread, if everyone on here realises the potential of PW work you'll get the likes of Seank doing them MaccyD's for £50 never mind £500  

Darran

[Matt.]

Haha, I just asked today how much they paid and wen they said £500, I was like .............. Ok then, I be getting a set up

Smudger, you PW roofs don't you? Do you put anything on the roof afterwards?

[Matt.]

Now we need lee blast away to read the post and put the link to the video

[Smudger]

Matty - not sure he reads this side of the forum, start a thread in general cleaning.

Tom - hypo or algoclear

Thanks Darren. At the moment I sub out roof cleaning, still make decent ££'s for not doing much, but obviously can do more if done yourself.

Thanks
