Dangers Of Pressure Washing
7 reasons why you should NOT pressure wash your roof
1
A person on your roof can break tiles, especially clay tiles and especially small clay tiles which are very expensive to fix and you only find out later when internal water damage occurs.
2
Will a person pressure washing your roof tell you that they have broken a tile / caused damage?
3
Pressure washing can strip the top protective layer off the tile rendering your roof weaker and dramatically lowering the life of your roof.
4
A person on a wet slippery roof is a dangerous situation. Many accidents do happen. Does your home insurance cover this?
5
Pressure washing is very messy and the moss/debris can block your gutters and downpipes.
6
If your membrane under the tiles is weak or perished you have a very high risk of internal water damage.
7
Pressure washing bleaches the colour out of your tiles making your roof appear white. Because this has been caused by pressure washing the only way of rectifying this damage is to 'reseal' the tiles wich is more costly. You don't get this issue with the Airpole Cleaning System as it gently cleans the tile with no damage.
