What did you charge
@@johnnypeters6513hey Johnny. Around 1000 if I remember right
What is that solution ur using and spraying on that moss that turns white, does it help losen it up?? Thank u buddy
@@paulpersons799 bleach water and soap mix. Yes it does and will kill it
Yo what up man. Do you have some before and after pics I can buy off you. Just started my company and need something to post.
Would be nice if you went back after a rainfall showing what the finished product looked like
Yes pls
It takes more than one rain fall more like a season.
Thanks for showing this bro
I’m sure you’ve probably got another hose reel by now, but if the handle ever falls off you can drill a hole (if necessary) into the outer ring, put some washers a bolt and handle through it and it’s fixed.
Might even be better than the first one for like $15-20
That reel is long long gone 😄
@@YoungAmbitionYA figured I so! That’s like a reverse wheel chair, I already know that hot old quick 🤣
Check out some newer vids and the newest setup
Awesome and very thorough job getting that moss off. Consider wearing gloves wherever you’re applying the mix.
I just subbed yesterday because you seem like a genuine guy, especially warning to not be buying all the courses and things that people are selling when there's tons of free info out there.
Today this video popped on my recommended and I also see that you are a Harbor Freight kind of guy, even better!
How's that Atlas blower holding up?
Thanks! I use gas now. Battery wasn't worth it
Aluminum paint shield on a pole and a quick scrape works wonders.
I'll keep that in mind!
That voice crack thought at the beginning
For a hot second that roof looked like a front lawn, good job bud.
🤙
At my old flooring job we welded a 10MM socket to it and used an impact
That's awesome 👌 nice idea
Wat kind of chemicals I can use for the tile roof
bleach and water and soap
Could have just waited another week until it was ready to mow the roof lawn. Lol
🤣
So does the moss blow away after a while? Does it stay white and sits there?
Do you up-sell gutter cleanings when something is this bad? I would think the gutters would already be full or get full after this kind of job. Thanks!
Yes gutter upsells are great on roof washes. Sometimes though I'll do a little clean for free if I feel like it
That's awesome. How much does that over spray effect the wood deck under though? Do you want as well or tarp it off maybe? Nice truck set up too man.
Hey Kevin. Thanks for the sub and the comment! The chlorine won't hurt the deck. The main concern is with the vegetation which is well rinsed. It never hurts to splash some water on the deck before and after to be safe, but it won't really be affected.
@@YoungAmbitionYA the cleaning solution will mess with the deck! You should be wetting the deck at the same time as the plants because it will affect the wood on the deck if left with no water to dilute. Thanks, Ed Ernest
The handle on my General reel broke recently. Bought a replacement from Kleen-Rite. Couldn’t find it anywhere else. Hope it helps.
Just broke another one lately. Found one on Amazon!
That was some thick moss!
Yeah on of the worst ones I've done!
What are you doing for the splashing of or overspray concerning decks, Metals, plants, etc.?
Hey Troy. Wet everything first with water. Rinse well after. That's it!
I appreciate you getting back to me so quickly. I was afraid if I tried SH I would kill plants and destroyed property. Are you insured if so with who? I'm in Oregon, we have endless moss covered roofs. Could definitely become an add on for my business... Thanks
@@troy4219 Careful in what area of Oregon you do this type of cleaning. Some areas require in Oregon require that you hold a certain type of environmental insurance.
what % SH do you use on roofs now?
6%
Great video, thanks for the good info.

That blower took off lots of overburden
🤙
I'm surprised you don't have gloves on when using the spray with chemicals. But you do wear a mask. Gloves would be beneficial.
Hi Carol! Thanks for watching and the comment! The solution is mainly water.. the chlorine mix is comparable to swimming in a pool. Chlorine kills the scum, algae etc, but you can swim and open your eyes if you u want!
Soooo as of right now I only do commercial pressure washing mostly surface cleaning sidewalks. But I’ve been looking at getting into soft wash. All of that moss on that roof, I could not imagine walking away from a job looking like that. I know the chemical continues to work after you leave but then what happens? There’s no way all of that moss is completely gone and all you can see is nice clean shingles. Doesn’t that have to be scraped off or brushed off or some thing and cleaned again I would think?
What's up Chris - thanks for the comment! You definitely need to talk to the client on jobs like this and let them know what to expect. Any moss jobs I do I always tell the client up front that I'll brush off the excess, spray and kill the rest, and come back if needed. I've sprayed some roofs 2 or 3 times over a season. I just cant fit all that into one video. I'm upfront with my customers about realistic expectations and I've only taken the job if we are on the same page. Moss is always a lot more involved than just spraying streaky roofs!
Cool vid man, any way you could've rinsed off the roof in this situation?
Thanks
Use a pair of vice grips on the part the handle broke on your reel and use it as a handle... better then manually doin it...I've done it before too so I feel your pain brother
Just had another one break recently 😂
Hey YAS, where did you get your Soft wash wand tip? Great videos by the way, you're up there with some of the big hitters when it comes to info and video's. Keep up the great work.
Really shouldn’t set your ladder up against the shingles. It breaks the edges. You shouldn’t walk on the very peak of the shingles either. There’s no support and they will break. I’m curious as to what the wooden decks down below looks like after all your overspray splattered on them. always try to protect the customers property unless you’re looking for litigation.
Completely agree! This was my first season. Lots has changed since. The decks were pre wet and didn't have an issue. I don't walk peaks any more and use ladder standoffs. I don't really take much work now that involves roof cleaning. Plenty of money to make on the ground
How will you remove the dead moss from the roof?
Hey Mike. If the moss is light it will remove its self with the wind and rain once dead and dry. In this case with the roof in this video and the thickness of the moss a revisit with a brush and blower wouldn't be needed
@@YoungAmbitionYA revisit after hours or days ant time frequency
Would love to know how do you go about quoting? like is it by the ft? or what?
Some people use a sqft pricing. Over time I just learned what competitors were also charging for certain roofs and once i figured the price points I just shoot a price off my head. Once you do a couple you'll know what you want to charge just by looking at it
Fantastic video can i ask what mix did you use ? Thanks
Hey it's a mix of bleach water and sometimes soap. The mixture strength depends on what the job calls for
@@YoungAmbitionYA thanks 👍👍
That looked like a name on some fire gear, are you a fire fighter also?
Volunteer!
@@YoungAmbitionYA I have been a volunteer since 2001. Finally got a full time spot at another dept. Been full time for 3 years now.
what's your opinion on poly-guard ultra shock. its pool cleaner but its just strong bleach from what I understand. 12.5%. would this be safe to use on Housewash and roof washes??? farm and fleet has it for $12 for 4 gallons. let me know what you think
I dont see why it would be an issue! Looks like a good deal
Dang you're a landscape company too? hehe. Need a mower up there.
😂
Where do you get yellow chemical containers?
Pool stores
Use some of that ambition to get a new handle......
Just wondering; why are you not in a safety harness to prevent a serious fall, as you blow off the roof? Though it may look safe, how do you know if those shingles are not loose, and as you step on them, you've set up a fall incident, which could end your career?
Because we are on roofs doing these jobs while you're at home asking dumb questions.
considering on average, how many gallons of chem you go thru in a couple roofs?
On average 15-20 gallons
What percent mix did you use?
4.5%
Bro do u have to clean the gutters after blowin all the shit off with the blower
Yeah I just blow out the gutters. Only takes a few minutes. I dont leave them spotless but I remove what I put in
Keep holding it down!
Hey Shirley! Definitely will! You getting after it too?!
Awesome stuff! Motivating. I'm trying to get up and going. Thanks for vids!
Thanks! Glad you are enjoying!

How long before moss disappeared?
Couple months
How hot was your mix for that??
Hey Jody. About 5%
if batch mixing, how many gallons of sh and water?
Depends on what mix you want? Roof or house wash. 1% or 6% mix? How big is your holding tank. Its can vary depending on the job so its variable. Not a one mix does all
@@YoungAmbitionYA For roof washing. I have a 35g tank. From what i have read, 1G of SH and 1G of water. But that dont seem right to get 6% by the time it hits the roof
What’s chemicals did you use?? SH??
Alberto what's going on!? I use SH, pool chlorine 12.5% to be exact! I use roof snot as a surfactant as well
What are you spraying on the roof?
Bleach soap and water
Mate check out UK roof cleaning, that's nothing compared to what they get on thier roofs
I've seen some of that and Partridge. Crazy moss that way!
Sure would appreciate knowing what the SAUCE was.
Bleach, soap and water
Straight 12.5 or did you mix with water ?
Always mixed and diluted. Straight SH is rarely used and usually only washing block or brick
Can you also scrape the moss off first before spaying?
You can but be vary careful. Very easy to uproot shingles. I use a stiff bristled broon to knock off loose moss but you only want to give it a few passes or you can hurt the granules on the shingles. If it doesnt come up with a pass or two of the brush I leave it and spray it
@@YoungAmbitionYA makes sense, I guess it will depend on what kind of roof tile it is etc..I'm enjoying you channel and seeing your journey..👍🤙
@@hillysextractorcleaningser8934 correct. Slate roofs if they're walkable you will have a lot more leeway. Thanks brother!
How many gallons of SH you think you used on this?
5-10 gallons
Where do you buy your roof snot from?
I get it right from their site. It ships from Kentrucky. They're really good to work with
I think they need to take down a couple of their trees
Don’t costumers want to see the moss off after the first visit? They trust you that’ll come off itself with rain? Or do you come back to remove it? Thanks
You always want to be sure to talk to and educate your clients on the process. The owners here were told that the moss would start dying then turn brown. After a few weeks of it drying out it would come off on it's own. When a roof is that bad I tell them I will stop back in a few weeks and check on it! Most roofs aren't this bad thankfully!
Young Ambition Soft Wash 100%
Always set expectations up front. Control the process
Hey just seen this, looks great. would you use this same procedure on concrete tiles too.
Sure could!
What gpm on the pump you used? Thanks
What's up brother. 5.5 gpm 12 volt pump
SAUCE ON THE MOSS!!!! MORE SAUCE
bro show us how to build your soft wash wands!
Hey Brando. I have a video around the same time as this on my channel about building these. Scroll through. I don't use these wands anymore however. They break too easy. Google Sutner st510 guns. I use these now. Any of my newest vids will show me using the st510. I added brass 1/2 pipe to make it more robust and to thread on tips
@@YoungAmbitionYA thank you so much!
Where did you get those reels?
What's up Moshe. Thanks for watching! They are strong ways from northern tool. They were ok. I dont use them on my current wash setup
What BRAND OF PUMP GPM and PSI is it
Everflo 5.5 gpm 60psi
What type of mix did you use for the roof?
6%
Just bleach
Man I left this video kind of hopeless. I do see the job as half done. As a customer, I would be half happy if even that. I'm just giving it to you straight. I'm thinking that most people are thinking the same as me. Give your customers more hope than this man!!
I'd be careful with your assumptions. The video is not the whole picture. You don't see the conversation with the customer where the process is explained. They arent left feeling half satisfied. This customes are left educated and understanding that moss didnt grow in a day and doesnt die in a day either. Soft wash isn't magic it's a chemical process. The only quick way is a pressure washer which is terribly damaging to the shingles. So instead the moss is sprayed, its dies, and the shingles are left undamaged. No where in the video or any conversations with customers do I lead them to think it just magically disappears. Dense.
Lmao go ahead and keep ruining peoples roofs by sweeping or like some pressure washing them
What chimical you used for this job
What's going on Jose. I use chlorine, soap and water
Send me an email at youngambitionsoftwash@gmail.com
Before and after?
Never went back to get an after. That much moss has to just die over time. Most of my other vids show me brushing it off and treating. That gives the best result
How much does a service like this cost the customer usually?
An average residential roof wash can be anywhere from $400-1600. Some higher depending on size
@@YoungAmbitionYA Thank you, great video!
wow that is one bad roof lol
Hey Scott. Yeah it was pretty covered! You have a great channel man and I hope you're doing well
Hi there,
couple of questions:
What kind of soap do you use and what ratio to the water/sh mix?
When and after how much time do you rinse or done’t you rinse most of the time?
Greetings from Holland 👍
Hey Freek! On Shingle washes I use a soap called Roof Snot. Mixing instructions come with it and I believe it's 1 cup. The only roofs I rinse are metal. No need to rinse asphalt Shingle
@@YoungAmbitionYA How hot is the SH mix you used? 3%? 6%? did you need a priest to bless it? haha
@@bhhacker 6% 🔥
this chemical don't kill the backyard ?
What's up Leo! It sure can. You need to dilute the runoff and rinse vegetation!
Get paid to spray beach on people house
Hell yeah brother!
you need a stihl br 700 blow it off with that
Tell me about it. I watched more than one video where so called professional power washing companies sprayed right over leaves and needles. How lazy can you be? You did what you're supposed to do. Good job....
Thanks Rodger! Sometimes you can only do what you can do. I just stay honest with the customer and let them know I'll remove what I can and kill the rest without causing harm to the roof!
Trees will ruin everything.....
What a bad roof like that cost to treat?
In my area $800. But every situation and area is different
Roof needs to be replaced..
You didn't move the chairs off the deck, hope you didn't get any bleach on them, that wouldn't be good.....
Bleach wont bother outdoor furniture or anything not made of cotton. doesnt affect or stain metal, plastic, polys etc. so no issue. Know your chems and mix ratios
@@YoungAmbitionYA word to that..... Thanks... Keep up the good work out there....
Incomplete video. 🤦♂️ not cool.
Not sure what you mean but thanks for watching 🤷♂️
