Just found this site today and I think I have a better understanding of what I need to do, but I have a hideous roof. House is about 8-9 years old, I bought it 4 years ago and within a year there were streaks on the north roof. I found the Jomax stuff at Lowes and tried it out with little success and since then...

Great Lakes Roof CLeaning was called to remove the black streaks from this roof in Jenison, MI. When we finished the job, the home owner was so happy. This will be one of the last roofs we clean this year. We are booking for the spring of 2012.

The swivel on my overpriced Tital hose reel finally started leaking. So that begs the question, rebuild it or replace it? I haven't rebuilt one of these before, so I'm not sure of any specialty equipment needed, if any. It's only a $46 difference, so I'm thinking replace it for now, then rebuild the...

Just wondering what you guys think

I was really impressed by yet another customer finding another way to save money. He apparently felt there was way too much profit built into a roof anchor and decided to make his own. He took a piece of SCH 80 Aluminum Pipe approximatley 36-40" and had a welding shop carefully weld a piece of 1/4...

Today I had a potential client (soon to be client) say to me, you don't use any bleach do you? It was after I'd answered this question in detail, which I've answered a number of times before, that prompted a thought... First a quick re-cap: household bleach 5(?)% sodium hypochlorite (or is it 4% - I d...

Do any of you guys ever spray in the rain not a down pore just sprinkling?

I have a 4100 sf roof coming up and the owner swears that applying zinc strips after the cleaning will solve his problem. I told him about the roof the Barry posted last winter/spring but that is doing no good. He is now searching for some stuff he saw that comes in a roll and is applied with some kind of caul...

I decided to try out the local newspapers Group Deal to help get the phone ringing in the slower periods.. It started today and it's 50% off of house wash and some misc. pressure washing where they spend $50 and get $100 worth of cleaning. So far, I've gotten 7 calls this morning, all homes are over 4,000 S...

well it took me until almost November, but I nearly took a spill from a 2 story home today. pitch was only 4/12, probably the flattest roof i've done to date. slid on the hose, and slowly went towards the ledge, literally at a snail's pace and there was nothing i could do about it. i'm not proud of it but i do...

My friend was telling me last night that as soon as you put chlorine on asphalt shingles that it starts to break it down and in a few years they will need to be replaced. I told him he was wrong and it helps keep mold and algae off and reduces the heat on the roof and looks almost new. He was once told by a perso...

How long should I expect a roof to stay algae/mold free after I clean it? I know it will happen again but is there a specific time frame I can give to a customer?

Okay...so we got a lead in off of Service Magic (yes I know...but it works for US). 1400 sq ft Rambler...guy said it had moss which needed to come off for the insurance. So...we get there...this place didn't so much have a roof as it had an elevated LAWN. Heavy heavy moss. I had a reasonably hot mix on the ta...
