Just curious, when does season start for my northern brothers?

Zach Maynard · Approved Exterior Cleaner

Mid March but depends on weather. We are done at the end of this month, it's cold!

Ed Thompson · Approved Exterior Cleaner

We're winding down. Looking forward to the winter break. I'm currently planing world domination 2014.

The phone is still ringing here for roof and house washes. We have commitments through next week.

Sorry, Ed, but I've already got world domination penciled in for 2014. Would you mind talking 2015? I'd loose my deposit if I had to reschedule the caterers at this point!

We start up in the beginning of March here, west of Philly. I had to cut the roof cleaning season short this year to fit in some window and siding installation jobs before the holidays.

Hey Ray, did you see the low for Thursday morning here in Tally? Low of 31!!! I think Ed might be sending it down here to slow down your plans for 2014.

Ray

I started last week March and did 2 roofs last week. I was hoping to go until the end of November. And Ed just leave NH out of your world domination plans I can't take another year like this year. And besides that you would hate the winters up hear.

I have four roof cleanings left....to cold hoping for this Friday. Monday will be in the high 50's....I'd like to go fishing instead...tough decission! Brian, so sorry to hear you are cold......NOT!

SprayWash · Approved Exterior Cleaner

Ray, how can freaking NY be warmer than Florida???? Thursdays gonna suck...but tomorrow is going to suck more....20 MPH winds and I've got 2 roofs to do ( and a couple more exteriors). One is a three story, so I'm guessing the neighbors are going to get free washes too!

1 Plus Zac I will be using it on Thurs.

Diamond Roof Cleaning · Approved Exterior Cleaner

We are done in two weeks. After Thanksgiving we just do gutter cleanings. We will only do roof and house washing if the job is 1000.00 or more because it takes to much time to winterize equipment and dewinterize.

Another year gone by! and it was a good one!

Mario · Approved Exterior Cleaner

Almost Art, still have a couple of jobs to bang out

Liberty SoftWash · PWS Vender

We are still booked, it was a fast yr!

Dan Dykstra · Approved Exterior Cleaner

21 degrees this morning. went from 3 - 4 jobs per day down to 1 because of the cold mornings and frost on the roofs. Not able to start cleaning roofs till afternoon. Hoping to get at least 10 more jobs in before we shut it down for the year. Our season usually starts mid April here in Michigan.

Sorry to have been a stranger for the past month or so. It has been so busy around here and as usual, finding a competent helper for my lead guy has been a daunting task. I ended up working with Randy for most of the season. He just celebrated his one year anniversary with Blue Ridge Roof Cleaning.

One of my commercial customers found that my past life involved remodeling and begged me to take on some projects, all T & M! We are now working on installing tile floors throughout his new restaurant as well as the walls in the bathrooms. We are starting week three and trying to keep up with roofs, house washes, gutter filters... etc. Last year we went up to Christmas. Maybe we can get that far this year. Then I will be ready for two months of R&R! As much as I like having the work... I do not like installing tile at my age. Thanks to Randy for making it a bit easier.

On top of a busy year I got married, so this has been quite a year for me and Blue Ridge Roof Cleaning.

It really has been a fast year! 1 1/2 months to go.

29 degrees this morning up here. We are doing two small roof cleanings in Bangor, PA. Needless to say we are going out later than usual.

Art O · Approved Exterior Cleaner

I was going to leave early to wash a roof, But its 39 degrees out there. On top of that I'm traveling into Charlie territory. I have to drive a 1/2 hour to get there. I don't like starting late. I like to be back in the office by noon
