great vid as always Ashley - that's a proper days work ! but give me my 12-15 domestic window cleans a day done with a 18ft extreme pole, all one van stop, done from the ground and all on gocardless. Finished for the day & in the pub for 1pm - easy life
Sounds ideal 👌 I got all my customers on go cardless, but a lot of travelling between jobs. Great when they're bunched together I'm still on the CLX 😩 🤣 Hopefully upgrade soon 🙏🏻 Keep it up bro 💪🏻
Started window cleaning after watching your videos a year a go, just got my power washer this week and landed a good few roof cleans also pole conversion pending.... Big up AE MACKY 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Nice job! Already seen this bit of kit being used by another TH-camr (partridge). Thinking of getting one but I have so much equipment don’t think I have the room. Great video 👍
Thanks. I have to say that I don’t think this is the solution for every situation though. Takes a lot longer using this and I don’t think the results are any better than using my pressure washer.
This is like sitting at home watching the misses watch keeping up with Kardashian’s now your trying to keep up with that little skinny Harry Potter what’s his name Sid is it 😂
Loving the videos and seriously thinking of getting in to this, will only start with patios and driveways and walls. And I’m in Yorkshire so won’t be stealing any of your trade!! Did you buy a van then fit it out when you started or did you by the whole thing as a van then upgrade when you could? Cheers mate look forward to your response 🤞👍
Great video Ashley, I'm interested by your view that steam isn't always the best method. Why is that and in what situations would you take a different approach?
The steam cleaner would be great in certain situations, but here it just took a lot longer than if I used my usual pressure washer. The results weren’t any better and I don’t think it effected the tiles any differently.🤷🏻♂️
Great video as always Ash is that vtuff the 9 litre min or the 12 litre i bought the 12 litre last week im using it for fascias and soffit cleaning and cons roofs great bit of kit saves my shoulders from scrubbing with the waterfed pole
Hi mate, what a transformation! I'm considering purchasing a Mazzoni firebox, though it two minds whether it's worth the outlay? Did you hire that machine or buy it? Thanks as always.
Me and Paul went half’s on a second hand VTUF. I actually think there are only going to be a few jobs where it is actually needed. A more powerful hot setup would be better, but I still think that for the additional expense there will only be a small improvement in the clean. I always use biocide anyway.
Great content Ash, the roof came up as good as new, clearly, a smart investment, do you run it off a generator or the mains and can you run your surface cleaner from it so you can use steam on drives, etc.
Great work Ash and loving camera angles 👍 how do you find these steam cleaners ? Do you think turbo nozzle would of taken white lichen off ? Just thinking if was going to invest I trust your opinion Cheers buddy
I don’t think it’s the ultimate solution really. It takes much longer if you want to steam off every last little bit of lichen. I always do a biocide treatment after cleaning, so I don’t worry about that left over lichen because the biocide takes care of it.👍🏼
I’m not keen on using a turbo nozzle at all to be honest, I think it’s just a bit too intense for the tiles. I know guys like to get all the white lichens off with it, but I still prefer the 12 inch fsc. I think the way it applies the pressure through the two fan jets is much more gentle on the tiles. Then we always treat with biocide which will kill off anything left behind. I’m also not fussed about steam. It’s a big expensive and a massive faff for not much gain. There is an awful lot you can achieve with cold water pressure and biocide if applied in the right way.👍🏼
Thanks for sharing buddy how long does a job like that take with a v tuff and pole… I’m intrigued as I sold mine before really using as didn’t like working with a pole which was the intention when I bought I also don’t have a tower which I would have needed to get to do safely
@@aemackintosh that’s what I though… roofs are all I do and use gx390 21l with Lance and turbo … obviously can’t use tower but it’s a method I’m used to and I get to swap the tiles and stuff when I’m up there
Did you buy that machine or are you using it for the video as a sponsorship kind of deal? You never say in your videos if you actually spend money on these items or get given them.

Not when you are charging 3K for a roof clean
Started window cleaning after watching your videos a year a go, just got my power washer this week and landed a good few roof cleans also pole conversion pending.... Big up AE MACKY 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
That’s great! I’m glad things are going well for you!😃👍🏼
Wow you have really upped your game with the steamer. Roof looks to brand spanking new. Love the way the steam 'melts' the grime away.
Thanks. I don’t think steam is always the right solution to be honest, but it worked well here.😃👍🏼
Great job Ashley, love the steamy video! 😂 Really enjoying all the podcasts as well, very helpful!
Thanks! I’m glad you find it useful.👍🏼
Awesome!! I know I’ll have to look at a steam cleaner! Just so heavily invested last few months! We will have to see!
It’s a handy bit of kit, but not right for every job.
Wow what a transformation, awesome job
Thanks.😃👍🏼
Nice job! Already seen this bit of kit being used by another TH-camr (partridge). Thinking of getting one but I have so much equipment don’t think I have the room. Great video 👍

😆 Yeah, I’m afraid I was at it way before him.👍🏼
Beautiful outcome, Ash. I'll bet you're tired after that job. Muscles aching just watching.....😂
Got at least one of these to do every week this month, so my arms will be dropping off by April!😭
Hell of a result!
😎👍🏼
That machine is a game changer the time you save by not applying chemicals or scraping make it worth its weight in diesel
I always apply biocide afterwards to kill off anything left behind and stop it coming back so quickly.👍🏼
That's a big on LEGEND 🇨🇮
😆👍🏼
Great work bravo! 🙂👍👏
😎👍🏼
Brilliant job and great footage Ash. Was that the 8" Mossmatic at the beginning?
Yes, the steam cleaning equipment uses less pressure so I prefer the 8inch mosmatic with it.👍🏼
Loving the videos and seriously thinking of getting in to this, will only start with patios and driveways and walls. And I’m in Yorkshire so won’t be stealing any of your trade!! Did you buy a van then fit it out when you started or did you by the whole thing as a van then upgrade when you could? Cheers mate look forward to your response 🤞👍
I started as a window cleaner. This is great for a regular monthly income. Then a gradually offered my existing customers other services.👍🏼

I’ve got the more powerful one.👍🏼
Steam cleaning or Pressure washing For the roofs which is better please?
Depends on the type of roof tiles and how bad the moss is.
Great job as always ash with your usual high end results. 👍 just wondering what’s your go to biocide these days. 👍👍
Thanks. GK Pro is great for biocide, goes on so thick with next to no run off.👍🏼
Have you used any chemicals to pre treat?
No.
Hi Ashley! Could you tell us what camera set up you use or is there a video on it? Thanks!
Yes, I should do a video on this! Basically I’m using a GoPro Hero 10. Paul has bought a Mavic Mini Drone which we use sometimes too.😉👍🏼
Where can I buy the same machine?
Are they having the drive jetwashed as well mate? That would look mint cleaned up
Yes. Looking forward to doing the drive next month.😃👍🏼
Hi mate, what a transformation! I'm considering purchasing a Mazzoni firebox, though it two minds whether it's worth the outlay? Did you hire that machine or buy it? Thanks as always.

Smashed it as always buddy How long did this take you ash
Thanks. This was two full days.👍🏼
Great content Ash, the roof came up as good as new, clearly, a smart investment, do you run it off a generator or the mains and can you run your surface cleaner from it so you can use steam on drives, etc.
We used it from the mains. You just need an adapter on the pressure hose because VTUF use their own unique fittings.🤦🏻♂️
Great work Ash and loving camera angles 👍 how do you find these steam cleaners ? Do you think turbo nozzle would of taken white lichen off ?
Just thinking if was going to invest I trust your opinion

Can you please add a link to the equipment that you use? an description? Thank you
I have put a link in the description for a video about the tool I am using. There are more links in the description of that video.😉👍🏼
@@aemackintosh Thank You
Hi Ashley do you ever use the turbo nozzle when steam cleaning ? Like when you don’t get flat roof tiles ?
I’m not keen on using a turbo nozzle at all to be honest, I think it’s just a bit too intense for the tiles. I know guys like to get all the white lichens off with it, but I still prefer the 12 inch fsc. I think the way it applies the pressure through the two fan jets is much more gentle on the tiles. Then we always treat with biocide which will kill off anything left behind. I’m also not fussed about steam. It’s a big expensive and a massive faff for not much gain. There is an awful lot you can achieve with cold water pressure and biocide if applied in the right way.👍🏼
Great job. The head is tiny! My tea mug is bigger! Haha.
Is that 5inch? Great to see.
It’s an 8inch fsc. The steam cleaner works at a much lower pressure, that’s why I’m using the smaller, lighter head.👍🏼
@@aemackintosh ok mate. Anything to lighten the load on the shoulders! Excellent work... as I always expect from you! 😉
Great video, 👍. How long before the licken disappears??
Hello, what system do you use for cleaning the roof?
21 litres per minute petrol pressure washer.👍🏼
Where can I buy a machine like yours?
Rutland Pumps
Awesome
😃👍🏼
Thanks for sharing buddy how long does a job like that take with a v tuff and pole… I’m intrigued as I sold mine before really using as didn’t like working with a pole which was the intention when I bought I also don’t have a tower which I would have needed to get to do safely
I’m not sure the steam cleaner was worth it to be honest. It took longer and I don’t think the results were necessarily better.
@@aemackintosh that’s what I though… roofs are all I do and use gx390 21l with Lance and turbo … obviously can’t use tower but it’s a method I’m used to and I get to swap the tiles and stuff when I’m up there
Top quality work there
Thanks!😃👍🏼
Just curious....how long does it take for a roof to get that kind of build up?
It’s never been cleaned in at least 30years, but it can depend on the situation of the roof.👍🏼
Hay Ashley, where did you get the system from?
Rutland Pumps
Will you carry on with Steam Ash, or go back to cold water?
I don’t think it’s great for every job. It takes a lot longer. I actually ended up using cold water on the worst section at the back of this job.😉👍🏼
What temperature and pressure did you run on that job. Thanks
It’s a 15litres per minute machine at 150degrees.👍🏼
@@aemackintosh You sure it’s 15lpm ?Don’t think you can run that off domestic single phase
Yes, but the pressure also drops the higher you have the temperature.
Left a lot of lichen on there mate.
The biocide takes care of it. Steaming it all off just takes too long!
Did you buy that machine or are you using it for the video as a sponsorship kind of deal? You never say in your videos if you actually spend money on these items or get given them.
Me and Paul bought it together with our own money!😃👍🏼
You’re going to need a bigger van!
You’re right there!😆👍🏼
£1500 ?
2.5k ide say
@@ljb7572 maybe ! It’s a secret gospel when it comes to Ashley discussing prices.
It depends which one you go for, around 3k or just over with vat!👍
