Mines is 2021 the cam shaft chain snapped. The newer ones all have 8mm cam shaft chain and there fine.

I wouldnt be touching one unless the 7mm cam shaft chainbhas been replaced with thr 8mm chain. As alot have been snapping. They have now admitted fault though. Mines snapped in november. And there only now giving me a courtesy vehicle this week as they haven't a clue when parts is going to be available to fix it.

Vans been fine apart from that.

It would seem at some point in 2023 they changed to 8mm chains. That's a heck of a lot of vehicles out there with 7mm chains!!! There's going to be such a backlog it's going to cause chaos. I ain't taking the chance!!

Ive been without mine since november, and that's them just getting me a courtesy van tomorrow, ive had to hire a van the last 3 months.  Its cost me over 3 grand now in costs involved because of this. Between getting it recovered to the garage, garage storage costs, then getting it transported to there authorised garage. I had to pay all the costs involved in doing all that. Then 3 monts of hiring a van.

Ive looked into it. And it looks like if they dont give me that money back then if I take them to the small claims court il definitely win and get it all back. So that's where I'm taking it if they dont play ball with me.

The customer service is absolutely shocking. Getting through to call centres in Bangladesh who haven't a clue what your actually telling them. And just respond with generic answers reading of a script talking about something that your not actually phoning about.

A job like that working from scaffolding tower has got to be £1000+.
When you take into consideration the equipment hassle and chemicals you will be thankful for pricing higher.
Thats working with pole and scrapper.
I have never quoted bellow for a job like that.
Learnt the hard way.
All the best with this one.

I would say if you arent sure try to work out how long it will take plus cost of biocide.

I think the better question to be asking is how long will it take and go from there.

I reckon a day so £400 plus scaffold plus chemical, £500-£600 ?

Seems about right

Thanks for the reply I thought one day's work, but wasn't sure if it would roll over onto a day and a half day

Smart - Seal green clear is only £60
The scaffold tower is about £100 for the weekend

The lady is i nice genuine customer thats getting a lot of people wanting to walk all over the tiles and jet wash it


If pressure washing you should be using a fsc on a pole not walking on the roof , but using a pressure washer you will spend as much time cleaning up the debris as cleaning the roof itself a messy job and a lot of slurry to get rid of you need to price accordingly

Poor taste.

There. I said it.
As a moderator can’t you delete the offending post?

I can. Would you like me to?
I find it a bit below the belt but I don’t mind if it’s removed or not.

I agree. Simon has now posted at 6.42 pm  talking about snowflakes or some such so he doesn't know when to shut up so I have removed that and the post from earlier.

Minimum charge for any type of roof clean on a small bungalow would be £1000 plus VAT prices go up from there depending on size and difficulty
