so i’ve got a possible opportunity to clean the roof of a hotel in my town. here are some pics of the size of it (one is just snowy). i haven’t had any major commercial jobs, especially like this. I have no idea how to price this job. any suggestions? Thanks!
So your looking at possibly useing a lift. Does your insurance cover that? Does your insurance cover commercial work. Does the customer want it done at night(doubtful from a hotel) so your going to have to shut sections of the parking lot down. Adress Run off issues. Lotsa moving parts. Figure out as many issues as you can, then think of more, then figure out the price that makes it worth it and add 750 bucks. It ain’t worth the time unless you feel overpaid for the work. Just my opinion.
Yeah i would use my x jet with a backpack tank from an aerial lift. there is a rental place right down the road for those. i’ve figured out what to do with the runoff. i’ll need to call my insurance to find out about my coverage. 2500-3000 seems to be close to what i’m thinking. i would feel overpaid so i guess that’s good😂 i hope i’m not in over my head here but hey you have to go big sometimes
Disregard my msg until you use the search function correctly. Type ROOF CLEANING. Then spent several hours reading. Your xjet is the wrong tool for the job
i’ve done days of research on x jet vs a 12 volt pump vs everything else. i already have the x jet and don’t have a pump yet. plus being in the lift, i’ll be basically on the roof so range isn’t an issue. the only problem with it is i’ll have to go down to refill the tank a lot lol
You might wana just pre spend the profit from the job on a bare bones 12 v set up. I’ve heard an x jet can sometime work… but you know a 12 v will for sure. I’d hate for you to find out one way or another on the lift above your first big job.
he asked for a number but like i said, it’s a possible opportunity. he could just be patronizing me for all i l know. friend of a friend type thing. would just like to be prepared in any case
