What you using to get it off?
Scraping? Or just spraying and leaving it? Or spraying and rinsing?
I always spray and leave it. Been hit or miss though, some houses look great, others require a second treatment
No flowers? What a rip

You should brush what ya can off with a simple broom and always brush DOWN meaning with the roof. Never up.

The growth was rooted under the shingles, had to put a scraper on a mr long arm and hit it up with hot roof mix 3 times. It was a bear, but the customer was really appreciative and tipped really well 
Wow Gary that looks like a pita. Lol… I am going to buy a bandit setup next spring… I cant wait to start getting into roof cleanings. They are very profitable jobs !
They are very PITA jobs…sometimes.
After going into a lot of roofs the last 2 months I’ve become real picky on the roofs we do. Almost half of the roof inquiries we get I don’t even offer an estimate because it’s super high pitch and a bunch of knooks or crevices, different angles at high pitches, or the front porch or lower level sticks out further so the second story is a pita to get up to because ladder angles to far out.
But the easy ones are REAL profitable

I agree. I’ve just been pricing according to the difficulty level and pita score. So far I have priced myself out of any of the complex roofs.

Check out this Scorpion drone. They were at the Huge Convention this year. I didn’t even ask the price.

‘‘Tis the future. Hopefully the machines let us control the controller for a few years before they take it over autonomously

Hey Jesus, you may want to do a little research and put it together youself, you should be able to save some $$. Plus you’ll have some idea if something goes wrong at a job site.

My wife bought me a drone for Christmas a couple years ago…great thoughtful gift, though i returned it…should have kept it though :-/
I’m a simple man with many attachments, brooms, brushes, handles, poles, scrappers, tools in general…this stuff was some well rooted gamma enhanced alien growth, been growing since 1924…

Good to know 
It’s been crazy busy with all the mildew, though I’m not complaining, rather be busy than bored ;>)
probably about 10k haha!
i havent made to jump to full time yet, but ive been staying busy on the weekends. good to know more people in the area, i already know 2 other cleaners here in town, i introduced myself and asked what the going rate is around town, i didnt want to over bid and i also dont want to ruin the industry with $50 driveway cleanings and $99 house wash, after asking a couple of guys i determined im right in the same price point as most.
