My first high access job

Repair 3 leaking gutter joints and remove algae staining to wall

Great fun, even tho the gate was 1.1 mtr wide, so was the machine! Had to dismantle the outriggers in the end

I cleaned the carousel at diggerland this week and cleaned up at a Gypsy camp after an attempted murder. Jobs at either end of the spectrum !

The site manager came over and was well impressed with the way it was cleaning up and said he was on the roof looking down and the difference was amazing. So I said can I go up and take a couple of photos!

Also just had an email copied to me from the site manager from one of the tennants, asking who were the contractors that carried out the work can I have there details I have some work I can pass there way.

Just go to show you never know who is watching!

That patio is a good before and after. I'm assuming you used hypo, how did you deal with the grass being so close?

Thanks jettaway - i didnt actually use any hypo however i think to get a perfect result on the top one some hypo would have to be used as theres a couple of black spots still there.



Andy, good luck mate! Remember your wellys and waterproof trousers. I didnt and came home soaked - its a yanmar diesel 15lpm 200bar. I purchased it off Rob it was one of the 3 he had for sale.

Thanks for the advice  ;)

Sounds like a similar machine to what I have... I've got one of these (bought second hand) >> http://www.clemas.co.uk/hurricane-d1es/

Did you use just a lance, or a whirlaway to?

Hi mate yep looks pretty much identical in terms of spec.

I used a 21" mosmatic to get the bulk of it off then went over with a lance. Using a lance alone would of produced the exact same result but would of taken a bit longer.
