believe you could make your own reasonable set from a double 10 ladder

My question would be WHY,
You got wfp & i find this does a good job.
Why would you want to spend a few hundred quid on something you already have the tools to do the job.

................but the problem will be that a conny roof ladder won't help you access those ones with the weird roof shapes.

I looked at getting one a few years back but for what they are they are way overpriced. They're quite bulky too.

I know what you mean Bob, the older i get the less i like cleaning conny roofs & gutters/fascias ,
My solution is, once a custys roof has been cleaned i offer to clean it every time as part of their mantaince window schedule.
Medium size connys, with easy access all round would be an extra £5 and larger ones with limited access an extra £10.my normal cleaning cycle is between 6 & 8 weeks and i find most customers take me up on this, as there not dirty after this period of time,
Its just a quick scrub & rinse and stops that shoulder knackering clean every year or two.
Give it s try on one or two & see how you get on, it dont take long at all.
