Roof cleaning work in Co. Waterford
Roof work is height work on a surface that breaks if you stand in the wrong place, and it is priced accordingly. The rule that separates people who know the trade is that a pressure lance never goes near a concrete tile: it strips the granular surface and ages the roof. Soft wash and hand work take longer and are the only correct method.
A city county gives you the mix that is hardest to find elsewhere: enough density to fill a week without long drives, and enough variety that the work does not disappear when one type of client goes quiet. Regular domestic work forms the base, and end-of-tenancy and office contracts sit on top of it.
