They are really bad Slacky..are you going to pressure wash them?
I did 550 on a chicken farm a couple of months back it was a nice easy job, no lichen, just really dusty.

Yea, I’ll P/W them.

Half of them will be done off a cherry picker, so that’ll be a little slower than regular easy access stuff. The other half straight out of the valley between two adjoining roofs. Im thinking 4 days, simply because they’re so bad. I’ll be perfectly happy if it turns out to be 5 days. 3 would be a result!

It’s a good job money wise. I did an 800 panel array up near Heathrow in the new year, P/W, took two days, but it wasn’t something you could let up on.it was two full days, but again solar panels are good money given the right job and volume of work.

The thing I find with pressure washing solar panels you have to be disciplined when moving the pressure washer about the panel. Any shortcuts and you see it when they’ve dried. I follow the lines, makes for a far more effective clean.

Most that I do have a bit of tree sap which is also a nightmare to get off but mainly dust and birds mess.

Those panels’ll come up pretty good first time round with solar panel FSC on them. Even with the unit turned down they’ll come up good.

Might take some patience but there won’t be any graft involved.

It’s strange watching the news talking about more and more people struggling to pay their bills and having to go to food banks etc. Iv just come back from the Trafford centre in Manchester  , it was packed. Restaurants were packed , queues of people outside every restaurant. People buying designer gear and all sorts. I went to krispy Kremes after it , guess what … it was packed. Maybe not everyone is struggling or maybe the news exaggerates … just a little.

I  completely agree,  I was listening to the news whilst driving home, there were queues outside the chip shop.
I had just come back from a weekend away, we visited barmouth and it was full of tourists.

I got back from Barmouth on the 23rd🤣
I can confirm the truth of this post
People were spending lots of money👍
