What The Heck!! 🤷🏻‍♂️ What's Going On?? Our Perspex Bike Shelter Roof Is All SLIMY & RED!!

[@gregfinley7308]

You can thank whoever designed and built that shelter for the recurring business. Something so simple, and yet so important , as overlooked drainage causing an ongoing maintenance nightmare.

[@DonnaMSchmid]

Interesting... It's like they installed the panels backwards! (Note that there is no such ridge along the front of the panels.) If they had just turned them around, everything could drain easily off the back...

[@giovannacasadio9600]

And there wouldn't have been the issue with the algi

[@gregfinley7308]

Good observation, clearly an assembly error.

[@jenlea9095]

Was just pausing to comment and saw yours stating exactly what I was thinking :)

[@TheTaff224]

I was about to say the same thing - they have the roof panels on backwards.

[@charoa7089]

Y así es como no deben instalarse unos paneles, vaya chapuza. Tendrán que volver a llamar a los chicos de PEC para limpiarlos otra vez en un par de meses

[@katrinaturner4933]

The people how installed this and the manufacturer should have to come back and correct the problem so simple a job and they cocked it up

[@karenheartoriginal3783]

OMGosh! That was really a red mess caused by backward-installed panels. Standing ovation for how beautifully they turned out due to your wisdom and skills. Also it was very thoughtful for you to give the neighboring cars a wash…that’s integrity at its finest! 👏👏👏👏👏

Yes, very soothing choices for musical accompaniment, I enjoyed watching it immensely. And yes agree with another commenter that the roofing was installed backwards from the intended installation.

[@Corvidae65]

That's quite a design flaw for that type of structure--no drainage. No wonder the algae grows prolifically on the perspex panels.

Hiya mate, yeah it wasn't too bad, still got finished at a reasonable time, so happy days

[@terrytenley9327]

Amazing job.. It’s looks so much better..I enjoy your work.. Some algae can pit glass and thus it’s hard to remove this junk.. Perhaps the whole glass roof needs a 1-2% pitch to stop the water from puddling.. Keep making the videos.. Your working is amazing..

[@shqa574]

Every new video, I think that it is a harder job than the last one I watched. This one takes the cake. This job was complex and high risk. The end result was awesome. I hope you made a price adjustment for the complexity of the job, that included your high level aerial skills and the lack of drainage. You can audition for a Cirque du Soleil aerial water act. The construction people or the roof designers were obviously lueless. The brick backwall looks like it could do with a pressure washing, btw.

Hard to believe that red algae peacefully dwelling on the perspex panels could bring such relaxing and soothing aquarelle experience, almost resembling Kandinsky circles by it's shape and depth of colour.

Best Joke of the Week Award winner! 🏆🥇

[@dafunkychickenrecords1149]

I think the panels were installed backwards

[@robertshrewsbury5067]

Hmm. Noting: maybe some moss to the back side on equipment; Then, there is no protection to the adjacent property vehicles while cleaning; the back brick has two colors and the lower half may need cleaning. Engineering wise, tipping the roof more wouldn't necessarily help, due to the back lip and no drainage system so far. Someone noted the top panel may have been put on backwards, raised front lip to the back. What I don't see is even if the water is drained off the roof, how and where is it going to be carried away...? Also you seem to have found colored bricks on the top of the brick wall. Just a fun find. Kind of you to wash off the vehicles next door. I've noted that videoing from below can be a nice technique when cleaning things as this bike area, coverings over school play areas, etc. Nice you were able to make this job look good and we got a chance to see you dealing with unexpected variables.

[@Morse-t5z]

Those came up a treat! What a poor design though. Did the leaves breaking down sitting on the perspex give the red type of algae? Enjoyed the music in this one!

[@PrestigeExternalCleaning]

Yes I agree with you, that is more than likely the cause 👍. Thanks for the great feedback 👍

[@jamesfatula5824]

i believe the roof is installed backward those channel tube supposed to be toward front as the flat area drians in back of course its improperly installed (pardon my American English)

It ended up looking beautiful and sparkly! I wonder if they could just cut some slots or drill some holes along the bottom in the frame at the back for drainage? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Otherwise, maybe you should have just scheduled them now for May! 😂

[@tatjanadosch1583]

What an aweful design oô How can people come up with something that bad... nice work though, you still did it diligently despite quoting rather low I guess since it seemed simple. You are cool^^ Even with sound effect? Are you trying out fan service or what? Did you do that last shot while walking on that thin wall?

I had only noticed the plumbers crack shot quite late in the edit, and considered taking it out, but then thought, maybe i'll just have a laugh with it 😆. 🫢 yes, guilty.

Looking at that structure, a considerable amount of extra work for you because of either a bad design or the installation fitting the roof on the wrong way around, Must be quite demoralising when any chance of a profit slips away because an initial poor construction. Without scaling a ladder there would have been no way to see that fault before quoting.

Well, you got it cleaned up and looking great Nick.👍🏻💙💙💙 Of course, it’s going to happen again because of the way the structure and panels were installed.🤷🏻‍♀️
