Hi
I have a few conservatory to clean next week, What is the best way to clean dirty conservatory roofs. One conservatory roofs have not been clean for a good few years
I told them I will be using wfp to clean the roofs but I am worry it wont do a good job.
I very keen to do the job well as it a good earner
To do it the trad way I won't be able to reach all the conservatory roof glass.
What shall I do guys
Thanks
David

Did one the other week which hadn't been cleaned for over 3 years.
I just gave it a good soak with pure water then went and sat in the van for 5 mins to have a fAg and a coffee whilst it soaked in.
The muck came off really easy and it didn't take that long at all.
You could always give it a spray with TFR and leave it for a couple of minutes, then give it a scrub.

Make sure you use TFR it will save you ages,as said the non caustic one.Halfords don`t sell it but you can get it from car part outlets like lencos etc.

What would the average price for just the roof. ( No gutters)
I've done a couple now at £45 + £50 Quoted one the other day at £65 as it was 4 sided roof. Hasn't got back to me on this just wondering if I'm going too high with price.

The roof’s I’ve cleaned so far have taken around 1- 1 ½ hours. This is just the Roof. Polycarb/Glass, Finals and all the support/cross beams. If there’s a lot of build up in the gutters I would swill it away.
If the custy wanted a full Con Clean I would do the gutters inside and out and all the upvc frames, doors and glass.
The one I quoted for £65 (Roof Only) I estimated 1 ½ hrs to clean. I’m still trying to find a good workflow so I would imagine I will get quicker the more I do.
