Power Washing and Roof Cleaning Forum

The Roof Wizard recently softwashed all the on-site housing, Bruckenthal Hall, at the US Coast Guard Training Base in Cape May, New Jersey. We cleaned five separate buildings, totaling a little over 16,000/SF of EIFS. One of the main reasons we were able to work on this base, is our "Good Stewar...

Paradise Pressure Washing LLC was called out to clean this nice little roof yesterday. The owner thought she had to replace the shingles until we performed a little demo and she was sold.

Hey guys, I have been doing some research on the best concrete sealer and I would like to know what product you guys have found to give you the best results. I ran across this product called Radonseal and it sounds like its a great product. I also found a guy who reviewed it and said it was his go to and has bee...

I just found that One Restore comes in a Gel.

Came across this job today. Its a 12 year old metal roof, green in color. The house has an addition on the left hand side that shows the color of the roof and newer metal that is still the original color. The light, puke green color is oxidation. There is still plenty of color left under the this, just need a...

Efflorescence on brick and Pavers. Whats the best way to remove it and what is the cause of it. I have a job where the pavers are 6 months old and the homeowner wants it off.

Hi everyone, I am relatively new to the forum, just thought I'd stop by and say hello. While I'm new to the forum, I'm not new to soft washing as I have been doing it for just over 4 years now, but through my painting business. It wasn't until recently that I decided to branch off and start an actual pressur...

Hello Everyone, I hope you are all doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. Things ended very well for us last year. We completed the roof of The Inn at Spanish Bay, 190,000 square feet of clay flat tile. It was a huge job and took a long time because its a super high-end place and everythin...

I found this years ago and have been wondering where I saved it. Finally! I'm not sure where to put it or do we just keep it to ourselves. My first thought is to post it so people will have a cheat sheet and things get cleaned with the right stuff instead of like the stupid posts I see on FB. SH doesn't clean eve...

We got a contract for all the local medical centers. After doing the first one we see that alot of time is wasted taking lifted dirt to the closest drain after surface cleaning the concrete and curbs. If I could reclaim it as I go I would think that would be faster. But dont know alot about reclaiming units...

Hi all. Seems so normal on here with the usual discussions. Over on this side of the pond we are into total lock down since midnight for at least two weeks but probably a lot longer. Had a machine hired for a job in the morning €600 plus vat which is on site waiting for us but now it seems we won't be able to do th...

My name I Joey. I live just outside of Wilmington NC. Been doing softwash for around 6 years. Mostly residential but now we are taking a good bit of commercial jobs. I have been on here before but has been some time. This sight thought me so much when we first started. So I figured I'd get back on here and le...

We soft washed this building yesterday and after rinsing the door frames and window frames turned out looking like this. Can anyone tell me why?

If you get pulled over for speeding start coughing and wiping your nose. He isn't going to want to be near you much less give you a pen to sign the ticket and take it back. Heehee.

It has prob already been asked somewhere. Mine has already been made, prob going to go on the trailer this weekend? Think I have everything figured out??? One thing isnt though? Once its all put together and stuff... gonna use it the first time... what do I set the knobs at? I understand I have to play wit...

Since I do little roof cleaning compared to most of you ( mostly an add-on service to painting) I'm just testing out my equipment and noticed my Dual purpose battery is not holding a charge long. Its 10 years old! Some reason I was steered into buying a Dual Purpose one back them. If I am correct a fully Dee...

I accidentally let my website expire through GoDaddy. I had a girl build another one, but it doesn't seem as good as my old one. I had about 15 years on the old 1 and it ranked 1st page Google. Let me know what you think in posts here. Thanks!!This is the new site: http;//www.bergmanpressurewashing.com...

Hi everyone, I'm based in the central belt of Scotland and I'm just starting out in the business having recently retired from the police. I was speaking to an experienced soft washer the other day and he said the best piece of advice I can give you is to join this forum and read, read and read again. 😁👍

Debating on going to an air system this year. Looking for your experience or view points either for or against. I'm tired of all the problems I'm having with 12v pumps. Constantly replacing for multitude of reasons (and I rinse) AND I'm always looking for more performance when I'm out working. Many t...

This is my new English Labrador and his name is Hank. Yes I named him after Hank Timmerman. I have only had English Labradors and I have been in the fence for the last few years of getting a new puppy. I put my last 2 males to sleep 3 yrs ago and I wanted to take time off from dogs. Well my son told me he would co-ow...

Another FB post.

Here is a video of a power washing package deal we did yesterday in Silver Spring Maryland. In the deal we did a roof cleaning front and back, she had a shed in the back yard, we soft washed the roof on that also. We cleaned her gutter guard so it would continue to work like it is supposed to, we washed and waxe...

For you guys that don't do FB. This is the newest product to hit the airwaves. It's not going over to well. The guy is spraying 2 plants. One with S/H and the other with Clenz-o-roof -- Edited by Art O on Saturday 22nd of February 2020 06:29:49 AM

He can't figure out whats wrong

Flatbed goes on this week. It was definitely time

Please help! If you find my little piggy would you please get a leash and bring back home.

This hose barb fitting has a full 1/2" bore. The OD of the barb is .625" and typical silicone or vinyl tubing will press right over it. Every other 1/2" barb fitting I was able to find only had a .375 to .400 ID resulting at a restriction at your hose connection (including our standard 1/2" hose barb). This...
