Aquashield Scam

[dave1971jones]

Just wanted to know what the professionals on this forum thought of Aquashield and their so called "thermal roof coating"

I did read this page about Aquashield and was totally shocked that a company could get away with such awful behaviour. The photos say alot about the product and the workmanship.

What do you think?

Nice Post.
These days we are trying to be more energy conscious. One of the best changes we can make to lower energy consumption is to change our roofing material to a coated metal roof that will reflect the sun's rays, lowering the amount of energy that you use to cool your home.
Thanks.

My thoughts exactly!

Anyway that aside, I have decided not to go for the dodgy pressure washing and coating (that's a no brainer!) Instead I am thinking about brushing the moss off then putting a copper strip onto the ridgeline and another halfway down the roof as described here:

Any thoughts?

The moss really is becoming a problem on my roof as it constantly blocks gutters and is a nightmare to clean off the conservatory roof panels.

Ditto WTF

Yup, copper strip is the way to go
