Nice Graphics, but get a phone number somewhere ?
You could stick a little tank in the back with a 12 volt Delavan Fat Boy Pump with ladder rack, but the ladder will drip roof cleaning chemicals, rust the pretty truck.

That is a pretty truck to be cleaning roofs out of... It makes me cringe carrying Sh in the bed of my 04 silverado.

ChrisDuffy · Guest

those graphics are not on your truck right? you just pasted it over the truck i think, but i could be wrong lol i do like the graphics though a phone number mixed in with those graphics will look sweet

This is my rig rebuilt. Or almost! I put a few more touches on today But basicall I like a little welding and signage. This has been a pain. The last 4 Saturdays and numerous nights spent working on this thing.

Its got..... 8 ply tires, 14' trailer with 3200lb axels( i hope lol) Titan air compressor, 4gpm whitco Hot, 8gpm pressure pro Cold, Yamada 1/2 air pump, 2 summit reels- 1 for 200' 5/8 roof hose the other for 125' 3/4 fill hose. 525 water tank, 2 Chemical tanks- 1 60 gallon for roofs 1 35 gallon for housewash.

The 60 gallon tank will cover half the roofs I do. I can also draw roof mix from the 35 if need be. With where im at now mixing an extra 60 during the job will do because IM OUT OF ROOM!

Now that Im almost done with this one Ive got a vision in my head. Ive got another trailer. dual 5200lb axels pipe top but only 12'. It would make a great roof cleaning only trailer. The 2 compressors that I have paired with 2 roof pumps plump to a 225 leg tank full of love.

Ive got an eye on A couple of jobs that might make that become reality but for now Im glad to be done building.

not my truck...yet! Wish it was...just fooling around seeing how to place graphics on a rig...think the number would look good across the bed.

Yeah I think the number would look good on the bed.

Oh and if youre going to go to a dealership and take pics..... go to the Chevy dealership lol

The local guy who does my yard and bandit signs (hes finally working on them) will do a 1/2 truck wrap for $1000. From what little ive seen that is cheap. If my work truck wasnt my daily driver id wrap it up!

Ugly Shingles LLC · Feb 28, 2010

lol..I'll keep that in mind. That isn't a bad price...I've heard it can range anywhere from $1500 (basic) to $6500 (extreme graphics).

It looks Great Chris, got to love that low profile tank!
Never tried a summitt hose reel, used Titans for so long.
Between the beautiful rig, and wonderful web site, you present the Image I have in mind for an RCIA Certified Roof Cleaner!
Hats off to YOU!

I notice you guys talk a lot about Titan and Summit reels...wheres the best place to purchase?

Reliable Roof Cleaning Jacksonville FL · Guest

Bob,

Check with Lori at PWP. Great people and great prices. I think PWP is going to come out with their own brand of hose reel this spring. They also sell Titan reels.
