to do a full roof clean including all the PVC, you would really need a conservatory access ladder and clean the pvc with pvc cleaner and elbow grease followed by a pure water wash and rinse.
To try and do it from the ground with just wfp is pretty much impossible when you have so many elaborate designs of conservatory these days with difficult to access areas.

Use a normal ladder.
Short pole.
Spray all roof and upvc with tfr
leave for 10 to 15 mins.
Scrub with pole and pure water.
Have a coffee
Scrub again then rinse
Comes up brill
Hope this helps mate :)

yes...thats the way to clean but you cannot do the conservatories with a ridge that leaves a side of the conservatory leaning back towards the house.
TFR is great but does not bring black pvc back to white.

Paul,

If you want to whiten up a stained UPVC conservatory then I agree with steve.
However, if you just need to remove all the green algieof the glass and frames then WFP will do a good job.  You will need a sfiffer brush than the run of the mill window brushes.
Ring me if you like
