Man this looks so similar to a job me and a colleague did a few months back. I was terrified to walk on the roof but I have another one coming up here soon and I'm going to invest in some Huk boots. Glad to see the 12-volt can make it happen. Thanks for showing the proper way to walk on the shingles. Good job and good luck bro!
You can do it! Go for it my brother! Yes be careful walking up there, take your time and always be mindful where you are stepping.
You the man Cliff.
Best content when it comes to this industry.
Thank You
Thank you very much.
Great job! I hold my breath every time you do a roof cleaning.😂
😁😁😁😁 tile roofs I'm extra careful on. Thank you for your concern I really do appreciate it 😊 🙏🏽
Quality… the video’s the work it all just keeps getting better. Appreciates it.
Thank you for the love
That house looked completely different! A tile roof is about the only thing I haven’t cleaned. We just don’t have many around here.
They're big $$$ they look great when cleaned and I like them cause it's almost instant when you spray them
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWashquick question I’m about to start cleaning them orange Spanish tile roofs you use SH and how much % it has a lot of moss on the roof
I clean about 10 barrel/concrete tiled roofs per week. They're easy 4-6% all over then rinse. Only problem is they do suck up some sauce. We've found that sometimes we have to spray several layers/coats
thats very true. I really believe that scenario, we have to spray some of them twice as well.
Hi mate. How long dwell time do you do?
@@frankyilmaz4647 10 minutes then repeat
Gotta love this guy and his work. Great videos!
Thanks a lot. I appreciate it.
Hey bro. I'm hooked on your content man. Keep up the amazing service. Two quick questions:
1) How do you determine when to use a softwash system VS downstreaming.
2) What type of Camera do you use to record.
Would greatly appreciate your response bro. Blessings 👊🏾👊🏾
Hey My dude, Thanks for watching the videos.
1. 99% of the time downstreaming will be used for house washes, pre treating, pool cages etc.. Only time my softwash system will be used is for high mixes over 4% and for roofs.
2. I use a GoPro Hero9 Black
#WashOn Brother.
Greatly appreciate your feedback bro.
What’s the percent when you down stream. I guess what’s your gpm and what sh % do you have that you’re using? 10? 12.5?
Hello my friend I can’t thank you enough for your help and videos..I often wonder how could you get in an out of jobs in a timely manner? The set up makes all the difference..with the few changes with my set up it’s made all the difference in the world.. I was literally in and out servicing a nice size patio in 35 minutes..the old way 40 total minutes setting up & breaking down..1st time ever 3 jobs on schedule today 😊 but oh well..time is money..thanks again my friend
My brother EFFICIENCY is key! I remember being in your position where 1 job would take forever and setting up and breaking down took 20 minutes. Having trust in your equipment and game plan is a game changer! Glad you're dialing it in and getting in and out jobs! Keep up the good work!
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash thank you for the encouragement and for all that you do for the industry
Best roof wash video on TH-cam
😜😜😜😜 thank you
I can't wait to start up all your videos are super helpful
Thanks man. 💪🏽 welcome to to the industry
Thanks very much for sharing. Soon i’ll do this in Belgium 🇧🇪
You're welcome. #WashOn Brother
Still gone comment that’s still a nice one for sure my guy
I appreciate that 🙏🏽
That looks like Arbor Greene!
That was one of them. Either arbor greene or hunters green.
I truly think you should be able to like the videos more than once
I wish too LOL
Hi Cliff, what brand and size (1/2 or 5/8 inch) of garden hose you recommend for softwash. I have a 5.5gpm pump. It was recommended to me to use 1/2 inch hose to avoid putting extra pressure on the pump and make the flow more strong and easy. Thank you for your feedback.
I don't use garden hose for my 12v system. I use 1/2 inch ag hose for that.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash Thank you so much👍
Killed it as always bro
Yessuh than you.
Great content! I'm starting in my city where this type of work is not usually done, mostly the tiles are like the ones in this video, what concentration do you use? On several occasions I have to apply at least 2 times since the level of dirt is very high. Even applying 6% on the first occasions
I use 6% typically. And yes a light spray for a 2nd pass may be needed. Unless you want to spray 7% which is very strong and odds are you'll have to still spot treat a few areas.
Love to get some training, your work is super
Yo what's up brother. I think replied to your other post. Text me 813-458-0864 for information
Yes sir thanks again i got your info
Watch a few videos of you, definitely good content. I'll keep watching and learning. I have a question on the barrel roof or any style. Do you wash it off when done, or do you leave it on and forget about it.
Thanks. I only rinse metal roofs that's it.
Whats up my dude. Great video bud.
Thanks Marsh!
Great video bro how long do you wait before rinsing the roof
I dont rinse tile or Shingle roofs.
Thanks bro
Can you do a video showing how you made your software gun, and what your setup looks like?
I got a video on that. Posted my setup recently actually 🤙
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I appreciate it, will check it out now.
With a roof like this, How much gallons of chemical would you use? I have my first roof clean coming up. Thanks
Probably 25 ish gallons of sh.
I did three this week and have my fourth one but the fourth one is super high is a two-story home but it seems like three story I was wondering if there was some kind of strap to secure myself there just in case 🙂?
Yes there are harnesses you can purchase. Or you can do it from the ladder. I personally don't have a harness.
What size tip are you using on the roof? Love the videos!
My 12v soft wash tip is a 2540
Do you feel slippery when step on tile roof cover by SH?
Sometimes if it's really dirty
how many feet of soft wash hose do you have on a reel and what size.... awesome video!!!!
200ft of 1/2 inch ag hose. Thank you.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Another fine job,Sir.
Thanks CJ!
Hey man, how much is the mix? 5-6%? I just bought a pressure washer but seems I don’t need it at all. Just a 12v softwash system seems fine it seems. Please advise
Yes 5-6% for roofs. A pressure washer is needed for concrete, pavers, rinsing houses, poop cages etc.. rinsing a house or anything with a softwash system just takes too long unless you gave a 10-17gpm softwash system
Great looking stuff here, man! Good tip on how to walk on the tiles correctly without breaking them. By the way, what 12 V system are you using? Truck mounted, or a small one that you have to fill up?
Thanks. 12v pump brother with a mix valve and a 65 gallon chemical tank
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I’d be curious to see that. I’ll take a look at some of your other video to see if I can see it. Thanks for the reply. :-)
Also does the softwash get rid of white lichens on tile roofs? I find that pretty hard to get off
Yes it kills the lichen then it falls off. The hot 🔥 mix kills all that stuff
Your in the Tampa area, by me!!
💪🏾💪🏾💯
Hey, are you using surfactant? We have Spanish tile in California and the lichen won’t come off unless you scrub. Any tips? Usually we use 5.5% or 6%
Very rarely we see lichen on roofs here unless it's in a very shaded area for lichen here I normally have to apply 6-8% on roofs. On anything else a 6% does the trick
What percent do you use on a pool (enclosure/screen) Do you downstream?
Yes downstream on popp cages 99% of the time
Do you rinse the roof after the treatment? Thank you
No I don't
What solution are you using?
Sodium hypochlorite better known as chlorine
How many gallons of sh did you use ? Approximately
probably around 20 gallons of sh.,
What kind of shoes are you wearing. I find my self slipping when I’m on tile roofs
Huk boots. There's a link in the description for them.
Question what solution did you use to clean the roof and driveway ?
Chlorine/water
BEEN MEANING TO ASK YOU.....WHERE YOU GET THEM BLUE RAIN SHOES???I NEED THOSE 😂😂😂😂
Lol 😂😂😂 here they are amzn.to/3NciESR
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash good lookin...happy fathers day champ
great video. i have a 15 gallon soap tank. how much slo mo should i add? i also have a proportioner
I had 1 gallon of slo mo and a little lemon scented surfactant I had to give it some smell good a day the rest water.
thank you!! can’t i just mix my surfactant in my bleach tank and tourn off my soap on proportioner
Hi cliff,
Awesome job roof looks awesome. I have a question I heard other people talk about bagging the gutters what does that process looks like or what do you do ?
And how many gallons of sh did you use to clean the room? Thanks brother
I have a few videos of rood cleaning most recently where I show the bagging of gutters. I think this roof was about 30-35 gallons of mix
Thanks bro. I’ll look for those videos
You make it look so easy bro. I’m getting ready to do a barrel tile Roof. What size tip is the best for this type of barrel tile ? Thank you for the tip on walking on the tile Roof
Just your basic fan tip that goes with your 12v pump. Might be a 2540 tip
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash got it bro. Thank you
How do you know your mix is working on the roof ? Cause I have been testing a 5% mix on one of my relatives roof but I don't see much difference.
Normally a 5-6% is plenty for doing roofs. I have a proportioner that mixes it so I know exactly what it getting. It's basically equal parts of half chlorine and half water to get the 50% mix. Which my chlorine is 12.5% so therefore I'm spraying a 6% (6.25% to really be exact)
are you getting 5-6% at the tip?
Do you put any surfactant in you mix for tile roofing
Yes. You can go a little heavy on the surfactant too cause tile roofs gets a lot of runoff
Do you get many colorbond/metal roofs?
Nah not at all really. Ive done a few metal roofs but Ive been passing up on them to tell you the truth.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash they're fairly easy to be honest, just need a couple of coats. Spray, dwell spray again
Do you rinse off the roof once you finish applying the chlorine with water
After applying the cleaning solution there's no need to. However I do rinse metal roofs
i dont have all the tools that you have, i only have a pressure washer. Could i downstream some pool chlorine and soap?
Yes you can. With your set up you can do everything except for roofs cause you're going to need a stronger mix.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash can you link a video where you show your current set up. Thank you
@@titothetech5641 yessuh. Here it is th-cam.com/video/pGgBiEe3SoE/w-d-xo.html
Where do you buy the actual gun ‘ cliff
Pressure washer products
So after doing a roof job you don’t rinse? Or only on really bad roofs?
No rinse for me. Only on metal roofs.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash gotcha! Is there a reason for that. Just trying to get some research in
@derek the longer the sh sits the better the results of the cleaning. Once it rains the roof will get rinsed. The metal roofs has to be rinsed cause a film will remain on the roof and if the roof is painted it will oxidize the paint.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I see what about if you’re servicing in the summer? Rain doesn’t fall so would you suggest rinsing or still leaving it for the sun to do it’s thing?
@derek just leave it. It will clean up just fine without rinsing. Some people rinse if there's no gutters with delicate plants under the drip edge and there's chance of a 5-10 min drizzle on the radar. Rather have a good rain than a sizzle lol
How much more is a tile roof cleaning from a shingle?
You can go .30c a sq ft on tile easily.
you should've told the homeowner to get rid of any and all tree branches overhanging the roof... bruh, those live oaks drop all kinds of crud & it gets the cement tile roof really dirty.
I dont get into landscaping work. The roof will get dirty cause of the trees around the property anyway. But no lie , I didn't mention anything about tree branches. Just came and completed the jobs I was tasked for.
Great content chief, keep it up!
Quick question would the same process cut it if the roof was filled with chunks of moss on it?
You could blow the moss off before. I've seen some brushing and scrapping it off but that would result in granule loss on shingle roofs. Tile roofs you could blow it off
I’ve been cleaning roof for close to 30 years… Moss does not blow off a roof
Flamingo where you get the SH and the price per gallon
Mostly pinch a penny. All of them are different cause they're franchised. Typically between $1-1.90 a gallon
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash tank's
Are you using the same solution for the clay roof as the lanai screen? 50% (laundry grade bleach) 50% water and 1 oz surfactant per gallon?
Nah cause the lanai wasn't that dirty. I lowered the mix go about a 3% for the lanai. And I use slo mo surfactant so I use 1oz per 5 gallons of mix. Not 1 gallon.
And not laundry grade bleach, pool chlorine 10-12.5%
Hey Cliff, How much do you charge per sq. ft. for metal roofs? TIA.
In my market it's about 30-40c a sq ft
What's the tip number you're spraying with for the roof
2540
@PinkFlamingoPowerWash that's the tip i spray with but it seems like it floods the roof. I use a remco 7gpm 100psi pump 12v
@@bryanvance6629 that's gonna be a personal worry. I don't worry about that. You can always lift your wand higher to mist the spray on the roof rather than heavy spray it.
Great insight. But I'd want to get your opinion on something. What's the best way to get hot water from a truck on the ground, pumped up to rooftop of about 50 meters height at a flow rate of 30 litres per minute and pressure of 1500psi?
You'd have to have a hot pressure washer or a hotbox to heat up the water. That's the easiest way. A got hotbox is cool cause you can take it on and off the truck
Hey, great content! what is the wand setup you have?
Thanks. Here it is.
th-cam.com/video/lfRkkkQyJL4/w-d-xo.html
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash have you ever had issues with the chemical eating at the gun or have you had to replace? I just have a ball valve pvc wand, which is the reason I ask. This look great for control.
@shane kelly it's a consumable item. It won't last forever. Sh is corrosive after all. But they last a very long time.
Is that a 50/50 mix? Seems hot? Also how many square foot and how many gallons of mix did you have to use for that? Thank you for your consideration love your videos
I always go 6% mic on roofs sometimes a lil more if it's bad. I probably used 50 gallons of mix on this one
How do you guys walk all over these roofs when they are wet? Our Roofs with Algae here in California are extremely slippery when wet.
Lol idk brother. Guess we're careful and wear boots with good grip
Nice work
Thank you 🤙🙏🏽
How much u charge for this? Or how do u come up with a quote
I measure the roof through Google earth. Then charge by square footage of the roof.
Good job.,ho is 5 x% or 10% bleach
Thanks. I buy the chlorine at 10% or 12.5% and then mix it with water to make it 5%
Question from a noob, Any reason for me to keep my xjet over building a budget 12v softwash system? I just got it in the mail and all I can think of is the softwash can do everything the xjet can do and better and more things like roofs instead of carrying a bucket or connecting to a backpack sprayer.
Can a 5.5gpm softwash pump let me connect long hose and just use that and still have enough pressure to hit roofs? Seems like that might be a better way to go and I should send the xjet back or am I wrong?
Yea the Xjet is gonna get everything done except for roofs because you will have a ton of runoff. Aside from that its a very good tool if you like carrying that sh pail around with you.
A 5.5gpm soft wash pump with 200ft of 1/2 inch hose is the standard softwash system. Its a perfect tool for roofs but its really not need for house washes and pool cages because you can just use a downstream injector for those.
great video as always! Keep up the good work! How the hell do you have that wand connected to the hose? I just got one exactly like this to replace my cheap handmade one with a ball valve. The other one i used a simple barb but it doesn't fit this new spray lance.
Lol hahahah ok so from the bottom of the gun is a 3/8 plug that quick connectsto a female socket. Then that socket is hooked to a swivel which 1 side is 3/8 and the other side is 1/2 inch. Then I add a 1/2inch hose barb and that Hooks up to the soft wash hose. Got it? Lol,
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I think. I'm going to home depote and lowes tomorrow to try to find parts. Im still learning on how some of this stuff hooks up. Thank you!!!!
@@LeagueofBasics they won't have that swivel there.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash oh ok thanks lool. Ill order one
Do you use a tripod on the roof?
I do. I also use thr chest mount and head mount
What tip are are using do you have a link. Thank you
On my 12v wand? A 2540 and 0040.
How much is a complete job like this?
Unfortunately I stopped putting my prices in youtube. But roof cleaning ranges from 20c to 50c a sq ft. Depending on your market
Can you wash these tile roofs from a ladder with a glass roof pump?
Of course you can depending on the angles and if they have a pool cage in the way
How many gallons of bleach do you think you used?
Maybe 25 ish
Big difference
I don’t understand why people wait so long to get their house clean.
Lol 😆 🤣 idk why bro. That's why HOAs make a killing
Many people do know they can have their roof clean. This is why cleaning roofs are so lucrative. Especially when you show them before and after photos
@@tntwashpro3863 very much true!
How hot of a mix is this 5-6%?
Yes right on. 5%
Awesome 👏
Thanks 🤗
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash
Hi Cliff
Listen, would you clean a WHITE roof the same way? Soft wash?
I know it'll take much longer what do you think about applying SH to a small roof with a Home Depot sprayer and then rinsing it off with the hose?
@Cl BO yes all roofs needs to be soft washed. And yes that's fine.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash
Thanks for the response.
Another thing I wanted to ask you is, when you're calling out different percentages of SH like 5%, 10% etc., how are you coming to those percentages? Do you have a machine on your truck. I don't have the equipment you do but if I'm mixing in a sprayer how would you get 5 and 10% and so forth?
Do you think it's a good idea to rinse the SH off the roof after it has done its cleaning? I'm talking about tile roofs?
@Cl BO the percentages are the strength of the SH. So basically sh comes in 12.5% and 10% ans that's too strong to spray on a house or roof. So therefore mixing it water brings it down. Say u got a 20 gallon batch tank. 10 gallons sh and 10 gallons water (if you got 10% sh) that would be a 50/50 mix aka a 5% mix since it's half a half.
I dont rinse roofs unless it's metal but sure you can rinse those.
Do you use a surfactant on roof cleanings? If yes where do you gets your from?
Yes. I personally use slo mo from pressure washer products. But there are others you can buy
Hey man I have a question so where I live the the houses have red tile and has very green algae Can I do the same process of 6% ph?
Yes 5-6% will clean it
Where do you buy your s h from
Pinch a penny
PWP SLO MO 💪💪👍
Love it!!! My buddy gave me some apple wash to try out. Gonna sling that soon as I'm done with my slo mo batch
May add Apple to mo👍
@@jbl8541 most definitely. Give it that smell good.
I own a powerwashing business in maine but own a home in Florida I would like to wash my own roof but can u tell me if I used a pump sprayer I know it would take along time but how would you mix the bleach 50 50 or that to stong and how long you leave it on thanks
You most certainly could do it with a pump up sprayer. I know guys that are pros now but their first roof cleaning was done with a pump up sprayer. If you're going that route at least get a 4 gallon sprayers so you don't have to fill it up as many times and you would put 2 gallons chlorine and 2 gallons water. For surfactant you could add some dawn soap.
Mike with O'leyns Pressure Washing walks on the titles opposite of you. I guess to each there own.🤷♂️
What do you mean? We both walk on the overlapped sections of the tiles.
Nope, they wall them the same (the correct way)
What chemical is used to clean the roof
Sodium hypochlorite better known as chlorine
Could a xjet clean as fast as a soft wash system?
Yes most definitely. Only difference is you have to carry 2 hoses and your pail for the sh. I never wanted to carry that jug of sh 😆 keep in mind that's mainly for softwashing houses or using it for driveways. It sucks for roofs. Way too much runoff
I bought a gun from Doug Rucker co. That converts a regular wand into an xjet I can use my jrod for less runoffs. What do you think can it be done like that?
I’m just getting started , I have to work my way up to a soft wash system😃 I haven’t done a roof yet with it. Do you think I can make a hot enough mix with my xjet using straight sh and idling down my pressure washer? For a roof job thanks 🙏
@@floridaprosoftwashllc.3416 Trouble part is that you still have to drag the sh bucket all around with you which is not easy when walking roofs. However, fyi we run 50 feet of 3/8" air compressor hose (rubber) to our xjet containers when we xjet (don't use xjet too often because our gas pumps have been a true game changer for chemical application and for rinsing. It IS possible to use 100' of hose for the sh xjet line but once again you're dealing with an extra hose to drag around and get caught on roof uprights, etc. True pain in the a**.
Great work my man. After applying the mix do you rinse or PW any roof? Or you just leave it and let the rain eventually wash everything away?
Thank you. No I dont rinse roofs except metal roofs.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash Thank you champ. I greatly appreciate your swift response. Is there anyone you would recommend that is located in the south florida area for help and mentoring? Im located in Miami-Dade/Broward County area?
@@eli2318 I know a few guys down that way but IDK anyone thats willing to take time out to mentor new washers.

@@oreljb813 yes Orel lol
I can't stop watching your videos, you do amazing work and your very knowledgeable. Keep up the good work.
I gotta ask... as I am just getting started. Is the 12v pump submersed into your 150g tank? is it separate from the pressure system?
It's a dedicated system. My chemical tank is shared with my pressure washer if I ever wanted to downstream. I run a proportioner to I fan mix my chemicals on the fly so the 12v system has a water line, chemical line and surfactant line.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I am just getting started with my power washing business; I only have downstreaming ability.. trying to plan on building up my equipment for the winter for to be ready to go in the spring... just gaining knowledge and getting some experience atm
@@briandennis4964 ok gotcha. Yea you're on the right path. I'm a downstreaming guy at heart only downside of downstreaming is you have to run chemicals through your hoses. I love it cause it's less hoses to pull out
As always, the work you put in is top notch. Appreciate the content and the encouragement
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash Recently I have seen the local companies offering a concrete sealant as part of their service. What are your thoughts on the sealant, and I would assume its different than just a post treatment, based on their pricing haha
How many gallons a minute is your soft wash pump? 5.5 or 7? I am thinking about using 200ft and wondering if the 5.5 might be too weak for that?
I use a 7gpm soft wash pump. No thats a perfect combo. The 5.5 is a whole lot or difference in my opinion. I've ran both.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash Wishing well brother, I just got to ask for some advice on a two story Spanish/Barrel Tile roof. Apart from walking carefully on them as I can imagine you slip easily (if your not wearing slip resistance shoes) and they can break easily if walking incorrectly. I plan on mostly trying to spray from the ladder as I just ordered a 5.5 gpm. This would be both my first barrel title and two story house.
@@danielvazquez9969 yes gotta be careful. Spraying fr9m the ground is fine. A lot of houses doesn't have access to spray all the sides of the roof from the ground. Especially the ones with the pool cages. Good luck brother
What kind of shoes you used?
Huk boots. Links are in the description
What if the moss is really old and thick would you rinse because here in California we have almost no rain and the roofs are thick with old moss would you.rinse it here or.just treat it and leave it?
Ive never had to rinse here in Florida. That would be a judgement call. The moss will die and fall off but It will depend on your customer and if theyre okay for the waiting process. Other wise yes you probably would have to give it a light rinse.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash how long would u wait to rinse it?
Thank you for the feed back!🙏
@@joaquinsantillan6257 Youre putting me on the spot here since thats out of my league. I dont have to rinse roofs down here. If I were in your situation I would wait til the moss is dried and dead.

How do you decide on whether to use downstream, 12volt, or pump sprayer.
To do what???
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash softwash. When you’re going to softwash, how do you decide on whether you should downstream, use a pump sprayer, or the 12volt system?
@@acabreraguat I downstream my house washes and only use 12v for roof cleaning. Downstreaming is softwashing as well. Everything low pressure is soft washing
Does the roof get slippery after you apply the SH ?
Some do some don't. Make sure you're safe and got good boots. Or get a harness kit.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I have the same boots you have Huck boots
