Roof cleaning is a risky occupation, and thats
the reason it is best to hire professionals to do
it. You can also do the cleaning yourself, and
with enough safety and precautionary measures,
you can securely and effectively clean the roof
of your house.   Have a look at some essential
safety tips to follow while cleaning a roof.

• Utilize Shoes With Great Traction Tiles that
  are wet, covered with moss and mould are
  slippery. Shoes with excellent grip traction
  will provide you extra hold and balance when
  youre cleaning the surface.
•  
• Keep Your Steps On The Lower Part Of The Tiles
  if youve to step specifically on the tiles, put
  your steps in the lower part, or the area that is
  upheld supported from underneath.

4

• Distribute Your Weight By utilising a walkway,
  you can easily distribute your weight and reduce
  the pressure on the roofs tiles. It is ideal to
  pad up or cushion the underside of the plywood by
  using foam.
•  
• Stand On Dry Areas Try to stand on dry areas,
  as much as possible. Arrange your work with the
  goal that when the cleaning is being performed,
  you will stand on dry parts of the roof.

5

• Stay On Flat Areas Stay on the flattest area on
  the roof. This is more secure for you and your
  weight is also distributed appropriately.
•  
• Ensure Your Plants Are Safe You should know
  that some cleaning chemical solutions are
  hazardous for plants. Before you start cleaning
  the roof of your home in Sydney, ensure that the
  plants are safe from the sprays. In case, youre
  utilising chlorine and other similar agents, its
  better to cover plants near the walls or roof
  with plastic. When using mild cleaning products,
  you can just wet the plants before starting the
  work.

• Perform Work By Dividing Sections Before
  beginning the work, you should distribute the
  roof in different sections. This will help you to
  work on one section at a time, and while you work
  on one section the other sections can dry. It
  will allow you to focus on different cleaning
  requirement for each section, and offer enough
  space to stand.
•  
• Polish The Tiles Theres a chance that after
  getting cleaned, the tiles might turn out to be
  bit whitish and dull. This condition is known as
  efflorescence, which occurs when tile reacts with
  the cleaning solutions. It doesnt have any
  negative effects on the tiles, but theyll look
  dull and a bit ugly. You can polish or just buff
  the tiles to make it look good.

7

• Use Ladder You must include ladder in your
  cleaning project. If possible, clean the roof
  while standing on a secure ladder. Ladder is an
  excellent option to clean clogged gutters.
•  
• Wear Appropriate Clothes Wear something
  comfortable, but not too loose. Cover your body
  to protect it from harmful UV rays of the Sun.
  Try to wear clothes that wont hinder your
  movements. Also, avoid any jewellery, or
  accessories.
