We can personally recommend Lee Wharton 626 817 352 or Dave Orchard 654 643 107. Both legal, so insured, and both offer a professional service.

Shouldn't be necessary. Paint your roof every 2 or 3 years and u should be ok.
It's the easiest job in the world as u are literally dumping the paint on the roof.

Yes, it IS an easy job.  We did our last year. Sweep it off first then paint with the special paint ( cannot remember the name) - just make sure you don't paint yourself into the wrong corner of the roof so you are stuck until it dries!! LOL!
