Cleaning A Barrel Tile Roof In Tampa
Permalink  
 


Here we are cleaning a barrel tile roof in the Carrollwood section of Tampa.

Carrollwood has plenty of slippery tile roofs, like this one was. We had a recent tropical storm effect the weather here in Tampa. We were rained out, and unable to clean for almost a week! 

But these customers were patient (they were cleaned by us 4 years ago), and realized we could not clean any roofs, especially a barrel tile roof, in the rain!

We love cleaning after a bunch of rain. All the plants are well watered, and not thirsty. Thirsty plants drink up the tile roof cleaning chemicals. They can't tell the difference between the cleaning chemicals, and water!

This is why you need always tell your customers to water all plants and grass around the house, the night before you come to service them. 

The last thing you want or need is dry parched ground, and thirsty plants!

Nice job on the roof cleaning Chris. We did a demo this week on a clubhouse roof for an apartment community with the exact same tiles and they are slippery as beck. Pretty sure they have a slurry coating on them. At least the tile roof we did had it. Top that off with mold and algae and it makes for a very slippery surface that only trained professionals should clean.

You got that right Larry! Tile Roofs are very slippery, and dangerous!

I remember back when Carrollwood was built! It is not a newer community anymore, many of the homes are under trees.

The tile roofs are filthy, and also very fragile, due to the age of them.

If these older tiles crack, you can play hell trying to buy replacements that are not even made anymore!
