I’ve been asked to scrape and treat a roof. There isn’t a large amount of moss on it, but there’s enough to warrant its removal. I’ll need to hire a scaffold tower, which is £90 for the weekend.

I have a rough price in mind, but I wanted to check whether I’m pricing it too cheaply or too expensively.

What would be the going rate for a roof this size?

This is the window cleaning section, you’d be better asking in the general cleaning section.

I know but when I looked at the general cleaning section, it seems to have Tumbleweed floating around. No one has posted their for a month

All sections of the forum have been slowly in decline over the past few years

I would spray with hypo and come back a few weeks later and scrape it. I would charge £500 but for a friend/customer then I would be happy with £400. I did one last year and bought a box set of scrapers from Spinaclean which fit a wfp. Did it from a ladder and scraped it down and into a bag, never again, hard work. In future I would use my scaffold but I mainly just spray and clearout gutters for £280 and my customers are happy with the job.

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

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

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

[Rob.Hall]

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 wouldnt even waste my time scrapping the moss off that.  Theres not that much. Id just spray algo clear pro on it and itl come off itself.
