just done tennis court and surround, think it was around 450 sq metres, i under charged, took ten hours on my own,  tried fsc but no good, had to turbo nozzle the whole lot and removed 5 big builders buckets full of sludge and remove leaves, what a ball ache,   it left the surface worn in patches as the moss would not come off without going near to it whitch removed some of the paint, the court was green with red surround but some of the red underneath the green court was showing after, there is no way of removing the moss without taking bits of paint off,  ball ache!! :'( :'(
