First and foremost, thanks for the add..

I'm new to the concept of soft washing and stumbled onto it on YouTube some how and found myself watching every video I could find. For the last 12 years I've worked in the tree business as a utility arborist and it's really starting to take a toll on my body. So with that being said I'd like to start up a business and hopefully it does well, I've search on google and seems theres not too many ppl who offer it in southern Ontario. So from now till next spring I'll be reading and asking questions about the industry. You guys/girls seem like a great group for sharing your tips and tricks, I'm looking forward to keep reading all the good posts.

Welcome.
If your season is that short make sure you have plenty of other services to offer especially winter work supplement. Remember, chemical mixes work best in hot weather but really start to loose efficiency below 50 degrees but there are tricks to boost effectiveness at lower temps.

All depends on the year Brett, last year it only snowed 3 times and the grass was green most of the winter and 

the temp hovered around -5c On most days. The weather we get here is not much different than what guys in PA get.

 Both would be nice Mike. The signature with as much info as possible  helps as we read posts.

I get this. I was here for four months before I started cleaning. I was working a different job while I learned and didn't want to "come out" as a softwasher yet. (haha). I think just your name and city and a biography about what you're trying to do. It's a community here so it helps us trust each other when we know who everyone is.  I got lots of help here during that time...some by asking questions but most by just reading reading reading and more reading. 

I see you've already graduated from "newbie" so you're moving up! :)
