The Rinsing issue
Permalink  
 


I know that most of you guys don't have mulch where you are at but 90% of our, well I guess mulch beds, have mulch. Sometimes its black and somtimes its red. People remulch every year. All the mulch has a dye in it.
I will be bagging the gutters but in a rinsing situation has anyone had a problem with either overspray or whatever dying or bleaching the mulch?

Wish me luck my wife and I are walking out  the door to go have our first child! I am getting yelled at as we speak! This is going to be fun!

P.S. How the new Logo?

Jerry

Good luck with that! I can’t for get the day my son was borne , I remember asking the nurse…is that the body! No. that’s the head!!!!! He was huge!!

Any ways!! You are spraying the roof not the beds and you are watering everything before you start spraying… right?

the only problems I had in the pass with mulch Discoloration was…..excessive water . I’m not talking about the water we put down before we spray , I’m talking about days and days of rain on top of that, people running sprinkler systems while is raining (bad rain sensors no) .

We do a lot of mulching in Spring time, in our contracts we specified that we are installing the best quality of mulch and that Dye mulch will fade with time or excessive water, there for we do not guarantee it!

We had 2 call backs about this last year!emote.img?ID=8424

If you ever have this problem you have to options:

1.- Install a thin layer of new mulch.ashamed

2.-Rake it over, it will look like new ! roof cleaning

Ivan is correct,when I see mulch I figure in new mulch for the area of concern and add it to the est.Sometimes you need it sometimes you dont.

Get a couple of those black flexible downspout extenders and run it away from the mulch and flower beds. Still soak the area down really well where the runoff goes.

I agree with using the corrugated black piping as I do to divert my waterflow from areas that I'm concerned about at the time of rinsing. It works well for me. Worth a try ! I hope all went well with the first born :)

As long as everything is watered heavily before, during, and after cleaning you won't have any problems. Congrats with the little one and best of luck. My second child just turned 2 months, it's two full time jobs raising kids and cleaning roofs.

I have been wanting to get those flexible downspout tubes to divert the flow away from the flower beds.

I would use those and water everything a lot to where it is almost flooding the yard, better safe than sorry.

If the customer wants the roof rinsed I dig a hole and run the flexible tubing into it.  I watered and watered a lawn once where the tubes stopped and still killed the grass...

Thanks Shawn,
 Hey I hear ya, week one has been crazy!
Everyone who sees him keeps asking if he came with shoulder pads. Even the doctors and nurses have been telling us that they have never seen a baby of his size because when they are this big they usually are very chubby from blood sugar issues, but he is just a monster at nearly 2' long and almost 11 punds! 
Sorry I am a bit excited!
