Job well done Brian. I see your an experienced roof cleaner I hav e a couple of questions for you.  I live in New Jersey your neighboring state usually I notice only one side of the roof is streaked or dirty, would you clean the one side or the whole roof? and second question how far into the winter will you work please be specific  with this question thanks Brian.

Thanks everyone! This is a nice one to add to my portfolio. I have a commercial one coming up in about 2 weeks that is almost as big, but the pitch will be walkable.

Gil, that home was more than 10,000 square feet of shingles with the pitch. I measured the base square footage and adjusted for pitch. Then I had to guestimate a little with all of the different dormers and little peaks you can't see in the back of the house. I use different prices per square foot depending on a lot of different factors. You can find plenty of information on price/square foot here to get an idea of what I charged without me discussing my finances in an open forum .

Clyde, I almost always try to convince people to do the whole roof. That is the only way I will give them any type of stain warranty. There are some threads on cleaning whole roofs verses half roofs. Roof cleaners feel differently about this issue. Just search and read those posts. I'll keep cleaning as long as I am getting calls and it stays above about 50 degrees during the day.
