Tile Roof Job

That looks GREAT! Just SH, Ammonyx Lo and water? How many ground guys did you have keeping the ground wet. I noticed not gutters and was the copper drip edge?

nice work man.

Honestly I did not have any ground guys at all. The job took me 4 hours. The drip edges were not copper. There was a gutter along the back side ( pool deck area). My ground guy got tied up on another road in the subdivision and the roof had to get done. Luckily the landscaping is very simple and all spaced away from the drip line of the roof.

I began by saturating the ground, and putting hoses on all the magnolia trees for 30 minutes before start. I only did small sections at a time, switching back to water every 10-15 minutes to rinse the building and plants.

The front and sides I shot all form the ground. The back side actually has a flat membrane roof over the lanai. I was able to get up close and personal there and really control the flow. Whole job took only 65 gallons of sauce!

OH...and then another hour of rinsing after I was done, just to assuage my paranoia!

Nice job on that Tile Roof Ray. That was already a nice house. Now it looks even better. I'm surprised you don't have many Tile Roofs up there. We are loaded with them here.

Assuage? Is that a new cleaning technique?

Do you keep sprinklers running while spraying the roof?

I couldn't find the community manager ( this is the club house) to turn the sprinklers on, so it was all manual watering
