Post by: monkeyman on February 23, 2010, 05:09:42 pm
hi folks tried out my new telescopic lance today with the petrol pressure washer i also ordered,amazed how much quicker it is for cleaning gutters and fascias than using wfp,got me thinking does anyone use this for conservatory roofs especially the finnials on top of the conservatory?

i would never pressure wash a con roof there is a risk of forcing water under  the  seals which will ruin the roof.

I have one but never thought about doing the finials, good idea unless they are loose but u could check that first. Should imagine u could have a bendy end so that u could spray roof at a straight down angle as well.  I did think of that one but forgot about it.

I have done soffits with one,  came up great.

But maybe, as I said, if  the water comes straight down at same angle as rain, through a bendy end, and also a wide angle nozzle to reduce the pressure then all should be good? 

Conservatories should stand up to a thunder storm. Or am I wrong?
