what i use to clean con roofs is :
 small telescopic ladder, for con roofs with limited access, so you can get to the roof edge, instead of standing back .
 i use a designated pole and brush, i like a flocked brush with fans.
 garden sprayer, with 5mtrs of hose, inline tap and pro end stop, into which i plug a converted harris pole with a nozzle at the end to pre-treat the con roof of gutter/fascia etc.
 hope this makes sence.

step ladders, i have modified a harris pole and a sprayer from B&Q  to apply the tfr. I only have one brush at the moment, just make sure its well rinsed off. Also a soft had brush to get the dirt off the edges is handy & a bucket

How do toy modify the garden sprayer?  I've looked at the ones in b&q and they are almost identical to the one I use.

When you say modify do you mean extend?  The only place I can think of extend it is inbetween the nozzle and the trigger and this is a thin streight tube...

Any help on how to do this is welcome, or have I got the wrong end of the stick? ???

I use an unmodified garden sprayer for the tfr.

I use an old pole with a vikan sill brush plumbed to fit an ordinary garden hose which I connect to the customers tap. It works a treat! I also have a wooden scrubbing brush screwed to a long bit of wood for the stubborn bits.

remove the nozzle and insert your desired amount of tubing. Ive used Gaffa tape and cable ties for the moment, till i can think of something that will look prettyer
