Hi guys,
I was wondering what's the safest way for a DIY'er to remove moss from the roof tiles? It's a two storey mid terrace house, one side is perfectly clean as it's constantly blazed with sun (well, if there is any sun left in Scotland) but the other is completely covered in moss. I have an extension ladder, it's very sturdy in normal use but when I've tried to extend it so it reaches the gutters it becomes terribly wobbly. The fact I'm 6'10" and 23st doesn't really help that matter lol. Is it doable for a DIYer or should it be left for pro's?
It's not a big house (3 bedrooms) but when phoned local companies all wanted to charge in excess of £300 and wanted to charge for gutter cleaning on top of that. And that is for one side of the roof! Am I a cheap bastard or is it a bit to steep?
