I will Doug, he is on his way to tampa as we speak from orlando where he is vacation with his wife and 3 kids. I am so excited Doug, I have never met Michael or his Father, or Larry Hinckly before. We have 3 roofs to clean today, and Michael is going to ride with my Son and I as we do these roofs, weather permitting. His family will be enjoying Orlando for the day, so Michael can spend a day in the life of a busy roof cleaning family.
We have not altered our life for Michael, except for moving a huge tile roof from today until tomorrow, since Michael felt most of his customers do shingle roofs. He is going to actually Film us cleaning the roofs.
Well, my Son Jamie and I spent the day with Michael Hinderliter, we did 3 roofs and filmed it! I showed Michael my Chemical Thickening Experiments. Let me say Michael is one hell of a guy! He was right at home out working with us, and was impressed that we made over 1000 dollars in a little over 5 hours. Unknown to some people, Michael grew up in the pressure cleaning business, and is FAR from a "Daddys Boy", though he is the son of Robert Hinderliter. He is a veteran pressure washer, and owns both a large hood cleaning company (Facilitec South West), and a truck washing company, besides Powerwash.Com
It took me all of five minutes out working with him to realize he is a cleaner, just like us! He wanted to learn about roof cleaning, so jamie and I taught him. He remarked to me "Chris, there is no reason you guys can't do 5 or 6 roofs a day". I told him Jamie and I USED to do that many nearly every day, until the economy went bad.
We all went to eat Collard Greens and Ribs at Luptons near Busch Gardens. He is in Florida because his 17 year old daughter plays basketball on a team that took 3rd in the nation!They are playing a tournament in Orlando.
The video we made of the 3 roofs has a lot of roof cleaning training information on it, and once Michael gets back home, he will post it here on RCIA.
