Love these Rogue Traders videos. Name and shame 👍

[@tombarton7106]

You absolutely can paint upvc with the right paint system. I'm guessing they used the wrong one.

[@DH1985-MB]

correct you can - when it's done right it looks good too. They've probably stuck masonry paint on this though!

[@japreet_kah]

Yes and also I'm sure if you use the wrong paint you can just jet wash I off

[@yemalad1.]

Of course you can! It's big business

[@MrSilentscreamz]

I spray painted my upvc over 5 years ago still looks amazing.

You should never use a pressure washer on your roof, it shortens the life of the tiles by blasting off the grit built into the tiles, same as block paving, it just blasts all the sand out and have to be refilled.

[@MrFrog_]

Mad isn't it that people would actually pay for that. A fool and their money and all that.

[@xxshadow-_-gamerxx1932]

​@@MrFrog_ rather pressure wash than scrub by hand or take longer to clean it a bit sand refilling is fuc* all

[@mrdog2019]

@@xxshadow-_-gamerxx1932 you obviously have never done it and have no understanding of building, the sand is compressed between and under the blocks, you blast it out it will never be the same, blocks will move, if anyone does it they will see a river of sand not water, certain roof tiles, Marley for example, have a grit on the outside ffto protect the tile and enhance its life, you would be removing this, also you should never scrub them, hopefully you aren’t a builder.

[@sumitrousyk8188]

Hypochlorite and a light pressure wash followed by kiln dried sand is exactly how you clean block paving and the same applies to roof tiles.

[@alexhawes6690]

You won't wash the footings away with a pressure washer and if you do you have bigger issues

Crikey how many times do people ask this question, every episode there is someone, I’m surprised everybody in the world doesn’t know the answer, he claimed housing benefit when he was working, big deal, obviously not the brightest being on TV while claiming, if he did it now he would just have to pay the money back, it’s so common they hardly charge anyone, especially the small amount he was charged with. Must be 15/16 years ago.

[@BallisticBurns]

As someone who is in the exterior cleaning business and never had an unhappy customer I can professionally say: Roofs should not be washed by full power pressure washing. The safe way of it being done if using water to wash is by a small rotary cleaner to disperse the pressure over a larger surface area and from top to bottom row by row. We prefer to dry scrape as it negates and possible water ingress from damaged roofs prior to our arrival. Biocidal treatment works and very well if done to the instructions provided, oh and actually applied. 🤷‍♂️ The driveway 'wash' is a joke and realistically no professional outfit should be using a domestic level pressure washer. It never creates the same results as professional kit. The gutters are a joke, sure a small amount of debris may come down after the clean, but, nothing to that level. The one thing they got wrong here is pressure washer not being able to apply the treatment on the roof. They absolutely can just most tradesmen would up for a hand sprayer motorised sprayer. That mud staining on the second job is a joke, not a funny one. The lack of use of a rotaty cleaner has caused that and a huge field of debris all over the garden.

It’s “fungicidal”! There’s no such thing as “anti fungicidal” and “anti fungal” is canestan cream etc

[@GaryGoals]

I coat all my roof tiles with canestan, and then sprinkle on some talc for extra protection against dampness

[@japreet_kah]

[@bunyann90]

[@pooroldfred]

He got booked for a job on a block of flats in liverpool...when the locals heard his accent they chucked him, his broken chinese jet washer and his gammy leg off the roof where he was smoking

[@samanthacollins4389]

In reality you could use a jet wash for antifungicidal spray. Using the soap part and putting it on very low spray setting.

[@HumansAreShitFactories]

“Antifungicidal”????? Don’t you mean fungicidal?

[@GiddykipDave]

You totally CAN get upvc painted as long as you use professionals using the correct materials. Preparation is 95% of the job. What the hell do builders know anyway

[@douglasboswell5737]
