Pretty!
Is that extra?

:D
 
Is this chemical burn on the grass. If yes, saturate the ground, before application.

Is this heat marks from your hose. If yes, cover your hose with pipe tube insulation, the foam type.

BTW, this happened about 1-2 weeks after the roof job. Its those little rains after the cleaning that get ya

"Mr Customer, I can clean you roof with pressure, or w/o.
IF I use pressure, there will be no effect on plants, but your roof will be damaged.
If I clean your roof w/o using pressure, as your shingle manufacturer recommends, there is a slight chance of an effect on the plants/grass.
We cover, water, and do everything in our power to prevent this. "

This is, IMHO, a good way to sell roof cleaning.
They will pick the non pressure way everytime.


IF you run into some yo yo "guaranteeing" not to damage the plants, they are either pressure cleaning, using sodium hydroxide, or desperate.

When I am asked if my chemical kills plants, I proudly answer yes!

If it can't kill plants, how can it kill the plant growing on your roof ?

Thanks Jon.

We have a lot of "Con Men" here in Florida, in the cleaning trades.

One favorite "line" these Gypsy's use is "Our Chemical is Bio Degradable, and safe for plants and pet's"

In all actuality, everything is Bio Degradable, depends on how much time you have ?

When confronted by these clowns, I ask my customer a question "Mr Customer, you want your moneys worth, and a long lasting job, don't you ?

"I could water the chemical down, saving me a LOT of money, and guarantee plants too, but don't you want a long lasting job" ??
