washing roof

[PETER_5041220]

Are we allowed onto a Bailey Senator roof to give it a really godd clean?

Live near trees and extended brush is failing to get into nooks and crannies.

I am about 14 stone before breakfast

Couldn't say, but my inclination would be not to try!! If you stand on some steps inside the van you can get most of yourself through the Heiki (I assume your van has a couple). Open it first. Generally this gets us to most of the roof.

Peter - I wouldn't climb on the roof, you could damage a seam and allow water in.

your new Bailey will take your weight , but i wouldnt advise climbing on the roof ,a wet smooth surface is like ice and is an accident waiting to happen , buy some pipe insulation and place it the stiles of the ladder where it touches the wall and roof edge and work from there ,thats what i used to do ,but now i park the van alongside my garage and clean it from my flat garage roof

Hi Peter,

I bought a step ladder with a platform at the top. It's not huge, my feet are about three quarters of the way up the van and I can reach the whole roof from either one side of the other. I think the ladder was about

I get on our Indiana roof to was it,I try to keep near where the supports are and as posted it is very slippy specially if you use shampoo.I have also polished it which stops the dirt sticking to it but again its very slippery,also the edges of the heki are very sharp when cleaning the area underneath.
