We perform this in addition to other services for existing customers and we monitor 8-10 roofs a year. One of our guys can clear a roof (approx. 1500sf) in about three hours. Less if he is lucky enough to have the electric power shovel.

If you are looking for inside or desk type work, I am probably no help, but MB is always looking for help, its a paycheck. Good Luck.
Good idea no desk job for me I'd shovel horse dung off a roof and wouldnt even ask how it got there! Dont have electric shovel never heard of one to be honest but I like your idea
