Roof Cleaning - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Woody Schmidt · Lead Tech Certified

Just finished my first roof cleaning this past weekend, and it turned out pretty good. I actually cleaned it using only CH, water, and Greenwash, and I didn't notice any residue. It seems that if you carefully transfer the mixed CH from the mixing bucket into a smaller bucket for pouring in your chem tank, you can all but eliminate the hard water chemicals from your roof mix. My setup is the fatboy system from PressureTek, with a 50 gal chem tank and 100 gal SH tank. AC's systems looks awesome, just currently out of my price range.

Nice job Woody, Welcome

Great results. When you do darker shingles you will see more residue. If you use to much it will look like snow

Great job! We have a HUGE fix coming soon for using CH. "Lexington"

So does anyone know the meaning of " Lexington" ?? I did a google search and there was no mention of CH. I think I am going to treat the darkest streaks with SH and the rest with CH and call it a day. That way I can make sure no sh runs off the roof

I've heard there's a "fix" coming down the pike - can't wait to learn more details about it!!

Great job on the roof, I am so looking forward to the "fix" as I would really like to be able to use CH in the majority of roof cleanings this year.

I don't know the meaning of Lexington. I've seen it show up in several of AC's posts. Who wants to bet he's up to something????

looks good for your first one! does va not have regulations for DOT carry limits either??

Woody Schmidt · Lead Tech Certified

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I just purchased my first tank of SH, so the only thing I had available at the time was CH. We have several tunnels in the area, and my SH supplier said that I couldn't take more than 100 gallons through them without DOT placards. I think I'll take his word for it.

Lee, to answer your question, I'm pretty sure that VA will allow up too 119 with just MSDS and a spill contigency. If anyone knows differently, let me know.
