My brother-in-law used to build these conservatories for a local UPVC firm. You definitely can't walk on them like that. Even the so called re-enforced ones. They had a specialist ladder for any repair work, used to push your weight down the ladder and not onto the roof. So unprofessional 🙈
I was a bit shocked to see that!!! Was thinking maybe you can do that watching it but glad to see that it is as bad idea as I thought it would be 😂
Have a conservatory at home with the class roof would not even dream about doing that myself
I did it once to reach a blocked downpipe, I wouldn’t advise anyone to do it!
Not knocking the lads,,but I was absolutely amazed they did that...I'm not saying you can or can't but I definitely wouldn't and first time iv ever seen it....
They must of cleaned loads like that and surely never had a problem...
Good job tho lads,,looks like new,,good detailing,,wonder how much it cost the customer...
Few lads on the job all day....mmmm
On the podcast he said something like £350 inside + £350 out plus extras like the facias so probably £800ish. As a guess. Nice work if you can get it but they did an amazing job
Great video ash it came up like new ! I think cleaning around the opening windows is the icing on the cake ! Looked mint
It was a great transformation.👍🏼
Love the attention to detail from these guys!
Quality.👍🏼
Great to see the extra mile they go over a 'standard' clean!
🤩👍🏼
very professional job congratulations 👏👍
Thanks.👍🏼
Great job looks amazing. Surprised they didn't have a set off conny ladders. Don't think I would want to walk on the back of it. Probably would of put a scaffolding board across it plus it was a fair size Conny so I would of set up a small MI Tower to work faster inside and out. Like the paint brush detaling brush..
They did use the conservatory ladder on the near side, I got some good shots of it but I don’t know what happened to the footage? Seem to have lost those bit’s somehow.🤦🏻♂️
Looks like a new build inside and out.
It did look smart when it was all done.👍🏼
Standing on the roof 😂😂🤠
Busmans holiday for you Ash 🫣🤣
Nice one 💪✅
Walking on a pitch conservatory roof . Conformation form the owner saying its reinforced roof. And can be walked on surely....?
I thought that id have gone straight through it
Back in the day I/we used to walk on loads of types of conservatory roofs doing cavity wall insulation. They seem to be pretty solid to me and never had any problems.
They are pretty sturdy.
Brilliant video just wondering on the health and safety side about walking on the roof just wondering y you did not use a gutter vacuum cleaner
They do have a gutter vac. It just depends on the situation I suppose.👍🏼
What is the A frame ladder model used for the outside clean? Looks perfect for what I need, If you add the Link for it I’d be extra grateful!!
Great video. Nice to see the extra work that goes into the deep clean.
It’s a Ramsay ladder. It’s mine actually, I used it to stand on and get some different camera shots.😆👍🏼
I listened to the podcast, and enjoyed this video. I have not worked on conservatories, and was surprised to see they can hold the weight of a man on the roof. Seems there's a lot of comments about that here too. I guess they must know what they're doing though.
You need to be cautious, but it should be fine if you only stand on the glazing bars. But it’s even better if you can use a board or ladder across them.👍🏼
When you cleaned the Facias what cleaning solution do you use what brand I use the magnum force clover tfr just wondering I like to try new ones out thanks butty.
I buy in bulk from bonnymans.co.uk
@@aemackintosh 👍
Thought they would of done the finials by hand tbf.. oh and walking on the roof.. wonder how much the customer was stung for that?
The finials were done by hand on this side from the conservatory ladder. I got some nice shots of it but I seem to have lost them.😬🤦🏻♂️
What’s a good upvc cleaning product
Rzr wash or ubik 2000
What was the cost to have the conservatory in the video cleaned
Ian talks more about costing in the podcast:

Great video
Thanks.👍🏼
What make and size pole was that you used ?
22ft Gardiner SLX
@aemackintosh brilliant thank you. I have one of these due to arrive for my starter pole. High hopes!
They must charge an arm and a leg to make it worth them going to that amount of detail. Quality job nonetheless.
Great video 👌🏻
Thanks.👍🏼
What are the chemicals being used, ones in the backpack, garden sprayer and spray bottle?
I used a upvc cleaner, but the valet guys used their own.👍🏼
@@aemackintosh which ones specifically if you don’t mind me asking
I usually buy in bulk from bonnymans.co.uk
Thank you for the videos.
I’m wondering how the uPVC cleaner can be allowed to go down the rain water drains when I’d imagine it’s dangerous to aquatic life amongst other things. Wouldn’t it need to be collected and disposed of. Also in the video there’s two shots of buckets being poured down rain water drains.
Not having a go, genuinely wondering if this is good practice.
Any idea where I can get a big dust sheet like that from please?
Hi Ashley,
I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to remove lichen from conservatory roofs? They are very hard/impossible to get off with just the brush and pure water. Thanks again for a very informative video.
Yeah, if it’s very bad I would use a slightly stronger cleaning solution and a stiffer brush.👍🏼
Thnk you! Would using biocide be ok? Would it harm pets in nearby gardens?
Was i the only one that was stunned how dirty the inside was?
Sometimes you don’t realise quite how bad it is until you start cleaning it.
😮 that’s a proper job
Wonder if they're charging what Thomas Sanderson charges.
Yeah, I don’t think they’re too far off that.👍🏼
Hi fella. I've done a few conservatory and UVPC cleans but found it leaves spots on the glass even after I rinse and gone over the windows with pure water. Is this a problem I find for myself or a general problem everyone faces?
Give it an extra rinse down with pure.
Make sure you rinse the frame thoroughly so no dirty water runs off there and onto the glass. Also watch out for dirty water coming from places like the vents.
I’m staggered they are walking on that roof. Beggars belief!
Well mr Riccardo Bananasmack it certainly is a crazy world that we live in!🙉🍌
What chemicals do they use mate?
They have their own pet friendly chemicals that they use.👍🏼
Hi love your work how much do you charge from ClareBaldwin
Thanks. Every job is a bit different, so I usually like to look at the job and quote according to the size and depending on how dirty it is.
Bet that’s fun in the summer lol
😎👍🏼
You can walk on those conservatory roofs?!
Yes
@@aemackintosh so from a traditional window cleaner’s perspective, is that safe/common practice to walk on that style of roof to access a window?
@@alexwilford8886 before we used wfp we’d always walk on the bars unless it was wet, then your asking for trouble! 😅
I wish I’d known this! I’m just starting window cleaning and the in laws conservatory needed a quick spruce. I had to leave some bits I couldn’t get to… or so I thought. I just assumed it wouldn’t take the weight.
Got some balls on them to stand on the roof 😬
They only stand on the bars.
