This is another roof we cleaned in Anderson, SC this week. This roof had a nice multi-color shingle that really looked great after the cleaning. Used a pretty weak mix and two applications due to the house only having gutters on half of it. We also soft washed the house and pressure washed the driveway a...

Hey guys. My brother Gary who is running Eastern Roof Cleaning in Ocean Grove NJ had a bad accident. He positioned his ladder on a newly sealed driveway and the soap and water must have been enough for it to lose grip. The ladder shot out with him on it and he landed on both of his elbows. They are totally sha...

We gave this property a make-over before they listed it for sale. I wish they would have wanted their deck restored as well. It would have been a much more dramatic change.

I drove by a house this morning and it's a dome style house. My question is for you that have done one.  Spraying from the top would be the best bet but how much Ammonxy lo would you put in your batch so that you don't waste all of the wash. Any help on this would be great.

I'm a novice roof cleaner, and am about to start a job finishing a roof clean for a neighbor. He has sprayed about half his roof with a bleach compound and that area now has the rusty looking dead moss. Beyond just giving the dead moss the brush-off, are there any concerns involving what I spray on to finis...

As I read about roof cleaning, I look at possible future roofs to approach.  How would I clean this one that is steep and has a Cedar chimney in the way with Skylights.  I do not plan on walking this one. Thanks, Jeff

For you veteran roof washers. I was wondering what is the process for cleaning where a roof meets the siding? 1.Do your ground guy presoak the siding with water first or do you have to just control the spray to keep of the siding from getting the LOVE on it? I do not know if you should  presoak the siding and...
