Roof Cleaning Equipment

About

Roof moss holds water against the tiles and stops it draining to the gutter, which is how a moss job turns into a damp job. Clearing it used to mean a ladder and a walk across someone else's roof. The kit in this collection does it from the ground instead, on a telescopic pole. Three methods sit in here, and most cleaners use more than one. Scrapers and brushes take moss off dry. Softwash puts chemical on at low pressure through a pole mounted nozzle. Power poles carry a pressure washer lance up to 30ft for render, flat roofs and hard standing. The tile profile, the pitch and what the customer is paying for decide which one comes off the van. Choosing a scraper head Pure Freedom RoofMaster: ten blade profiles covering Anchor Bold Roll, six Marley tiles, three Redland tiles and flat. The head angle adjusts to the pitch, and blades change by clamp rather than tools. Buy it as a kit, as a head on its own if you already have a pole, or as a bundle with the pole included. skyVac skyScraper: eleven blades, the same tile list plus flat nylon, and a wire brush in the box. The head with a blade fitted weighs 400 grams, which you notice by the end of a day at 30ft. Brushes rather than blades: the skyScraper Speedi set swaps to ten polypropylene brush profiles. Brushes scrub instead of cutting, so they suit tiles where a blade edge is too aggressive, and older tiles that have started to soften. skySweeper: a 70mm bristle sweeper in steel, or a steel and polypropylene mix, for flat tiles and tidying the ridge. It mounts on the skyScraper head, so it is an add on rather than a system of its own. Fitting it to a pole you already own. Both heads take a standard male euro thread, the same fitting as a water fed brush, so most poles already on the van will take one. The skyScraper is confirmed on the FaceLift Phantom, Renegade and Phoenix. The RoofMaster ships with adapters for common water fed poles. If you need a pole too, the Renegade bundle comes in 20ft, 25ft and 30ft. Softwash
