And some guidance on use. Have you any idea of the pr damage that cracked my 2nd pane of glass guy is doing? You start an urban myth like that and you end up in all kinds of trouble. I've already got painters and decorators telling my customers pure water is bad for their paintwork and frames.
hi
will the hot heater system you use crack panes of glass? how do you control the heat???

Yep,.. works a treat too.

I used to do them with a powerwasher off roof ladders,.. but way to slow, too dangerous, to cold etc. I was getting €600 - €700 a time for a 4 bed bungalow/dormer.

The spray is chlorine based and kills the algae & lichen,.. and a 2 day job can be done in a half hour,.. 1/4 the time,... but still 1/2 the price!
I'm still testing the chemicals on different types of roof tiles, just to make sure nothing reacts (I test an inconspicuous area on each roof first too)

Obviously it doesn't work when the moss is really heavy & thick,.. but I'm testing to see if a double treatment will do the job.

I'd be very interested in this and will pump you for details another time.

How do you get the work? special leaflet?


rhys- do a search for hot systems. But it's very simple.

i think your maths are out on that one ;D, a 2 day job done in 1/2 hour is a lot shorter than a 1/4 of the time, unless you are working 2 hour days.
