Thank you for the tips and advise, been watching and learning over the past weeks, just set up my truck with a pressure washing and soft wash system, think I'll keep my feet on the ground for the first year and start doing roofs after a little more experience, I'm only a few weeks into the business, thanks for the time and help.
How is your business doing?
How’s the business treating you??
update?
@@romeroson123 I guess we'll never know
Trash can lid fan protection would be a good video
Looking back on this video! Made me look like a pro from the jump with the customer on my first house wash!!! Thanks Coty!!
@Marlon Jackson how is it going?
@Marlon Jackson thanks man
@Marlon Jackson man I was going to hop in and put 20k into it off the jump but I'm not sure if I should even do this business anymore seems like a lot of ppl are gonna jump into it. Seems like it's going to be hard to get any customers since there's gonna be so much competitors. I don't know man, if I hop into it with nice stuff and do a van build would definitely need to rap it and get a really nice web site and branding going to make me look professional.
This is priceless advice! Also, your neighborhood is super beautiful with all those trees!
I usually blow off roofs, porches, and driveways before before washing. Not sure if it’s necessary but makes it a little easier for me when cleaning
Quality content. It’s “easy” work but that doesn’t mean it’s simple.
That's a really good way of putting it. it's easy when it's going well.
Bro you're cracking me up and soaking me with knowledge hahahha
This is the informative video I was talking about!! Lol
I follow your videos like I'm Columbo looking for clues at the scene of the crime!!! And THIS video is a prime example of why!!! Cody.....YOU DUH MAN!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely lovely! Great Great video with wonderful information!! Getting our guys to become experts and spotting these potential hazards has been a real chore. And you are correct, it's easy work, but very difficult protecting yourself against potential damages and hence, loss in revenue and ratings. It is a struggle.
Awesome Info in this video
Tremendous video Koty lots of of good common prior preventable common sense easily made mistakes. Remember the five p p p p p s prior prevention prevents poor performance.👍😉
I really like the way you express your concerns ! Good job
Great tips once again. Thanks for the information man
Really helpful and straight forward to the point...
Started my softwash business about a week ago. Done one job so far and another one lined up next week!
Excellent info and things to consider. "Suddenly great grandmas favorite bush" hahahahaha
Just found your page, have really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work!
Very helpful, thanks
EXCELLENT VIDEO !!! 👍
Your videos are great! Helping me in everything i need to learn for this type of work!!! Thank you!
I appreciate the video
Wow!! Thank you for the video.
I just got into pressure washing and all this advice and tips are an eye opener
Great video!
Ole "raggely" bush grandma gave me.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
i think your right on target
and I am a newb at this... everything makes sense and common at that . pay attention to detail
Excellent video guys, I will keep those things in mind.
How far did you stand when you blast that left-hand side of the house/high side.
Do you have a video of the different mix ratios for patio and roof for a house that is not so dirty??.
Thanks in advance guys
Very true, great work
Great video. I love your idea to pretreat the driveway first, then roof. Great time saver as well if imagine?
Yep. Maximize the dwell time
@@southeastsoftwash4020 great to know! Efficiency is everything to me so whatever I can do to improve! Thank you Coty!
Thanks Coty. Very good tips to know!
Jaworrah Lawrence getting close to your pickup day!
Southeast Softwash is it next Friday, or the following Friday?
Jaworrah Lawrence I’ll have to look on the board tomorrow.
Southeast Softwash ok cool. In the mean time go get some sleep. 😆
I like this guy 😎👍
Thank you for the tips....
Nice video. Do you have a link to the fella that had to repaint a customer's house?
Great video. Great info 👍 keep it up.
Thank you for the advice!
I've got a Northern Tool 12v 5.5 gpm pump and I don't think it'll shoot 40 feet up in the air. Have you done any kind of performance testing with the NT pump vs. Everflo? Your other video where you're at that old church, I was amazed that you(or your dad) were reaching the peak of the roof from the ground. I'm quite sure my NT pump couldn't do that...And I don't have any air leaks, etc. And I've got the same type wand setup that you do. I'd really like your feedback. Thanks for your time.
Great video 👍 if possible can you put up the link of Bobby’s CZcams channel about the $8,000 damage that was done to the house. Thanks
Eddie Arriaga czcams.com/video/o6y1d-eMocs/video.html
Great advise man !
Great video. Thank you!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
always appreciate your explanations. I have 300' of softwash hose. Do you think that's too long?... losing any pressure/distance? 12V 5gpm delevan
What's the name of the video you talk about at the end where you mention repainting a house?
since restaining does NOT necessarily fix a door. it would be easier to tape that 1800.00 door setup and hand clean it if needed.
that estimate price is from 2000 at todays inflation probably 3800.00 UN stained. sorry love your video's
Thanks Coty! What percent sh mix for driveway treating do you use?
America Scout usually around 3%
Southeast Softwash thank you very much !
Do you wash windows and clean gutters as well? Or just soft wash and pressure wash? Just curious about how many services I should be offering...Great content as usual man! You’re blowing up!
K. P. We do it all
Do you send your "pre-wash" eam pics to the customer or are those for just in case they say you damaged something?
We do this process slightly differently now.
QuoteIQ in the App Store handles all of this seamlessly during the quoting process
Do u use the house owners water or do u bring your own water ? Just curious
today i learned that if an outlet is snap crackle and popping its not a bowl of rice crispies
How do I get rid of air leaks in my hose?
Ohhhh MG JMaple will cost $$$$$, learn that tree!! If small cover them in Tyvec, if Big get a bigger piece of Tyvec!
Had a house with 2 of them... I rinsed them prior to any sh. And the 2nd I finished spraying sh I went right back to washing them regardless. I was at 1% max tho.
What would painters plastic or drop cloths be like ya think if covering those trees?
@@featheredcoyote5477 if it hot out you will see it wilt right in front of your eyes with plastic! I did it once! Never again! N I used a blue Costco tarp! Tyvec breaths do the plant doesn’t cook! Good luck
@@miket.5840 you're absolutely awesome brother!! You learned from experience and I appreciate your willingness to share this info! I'm just getting into this business to tie in with my wife's interior house cleaning business and so every bit of information is super helpful! I'm not sure if starting out if I should purchase a 12v soft wash system along with a portable pressure washer and see if I can make that work. I live in the 2nd largest city in Indiana and the opportunities here are endless for finding work.
What kind of tape do you use? Can I use plastic bags with tape?
Do you blow the loose debris off the driveway before cleaning?
Me personally, my backpack blower would be taken everytime to blow off the driveway prior and also possibly help with blowing off puddles afterwards.
I've also wondered about upselling the job by using a stick edger like I use for landscaping, and edging the driveway prior to washing. This way when it dries, that driveway and lawn really look crisp and gives that runoff extra space to runoff.
How do you control your percentage of SH? Sorry if it seems like a dumb question, but do you have a special type of valve? Is it on the pressure washer itself? Again, sorry if it’s a dumb question, I’ve never pressure washed but I’ve been watching your videos and looking to do it on the side.
One thing I cant seem to find a clear answer for is factory color stained cedar shingle siding. Can you put SH to it? This stuff is so popular in my area and the only thing I find online is for regular non color stained cedar shake. Anyone have any clear answers for me?
What do you think about covering plants around the house with light weight plastic?
If a house is oxidizing, do you use the same mixture as you would to a house that’s not?
Hey man. I saw a video of a guy mixing concentrated pool shock powder (which was very cheap compared to liquid chlorine) to make his solution. Have you heard of that? Seems like I'd save a lot of money before doin my house
That’s gonna be calcium hypochlorite which works but leaves a very visible residue.
It’s easier to just use liquid SH
I hope yall hit that auburn sign out front with a hot mix and no rinse ...js
😂😂😂
I will like to know if the pool essentials pool shock from Walmart and gain detergent would it be a good mix for house wash?
Did y’all wrap the door?
Wait what maybe I heard this wrong but do y’all charge less for roof cleaning than you do house washing?
John Lange naw, this one just had a few very small areas
You had said about 1-1.5 % mix. Did that mean a 12% bleach through a downstream injector at about a 10% portion, so that would make about a 1.2 % mix?
Jared Erhardt we don’t downstream. 12volt softwash application.
Which 12v pump you use
What do you tell the customer if they have oxidation on vinyl siding
would jobs do you still do even if its raining?
What side is better for the Smart blend pro? 12V or 24V ?
Either one. Works the same
I want to work for this guy.
What do you pretreat with? Degreaser? SH? Chlorine?
What percent would you us for drive ways/concrete?
What type of tape do you prefer to use when taping off those hazard items?
Shur tape. Home Depot
1% bleach to how many gallons of water?
when you say 1 percent, do you mean only 1 percent of SH to 99 percent water/
Recently had a roof still have streaks after 2 coats @ 4% did everything like I was supposed to. Any ideas ?
Have to go stronger. Most people do 5% some do 6%. I did a roof 5% mix and had to spray the roof twice and had to treat some spots a few more times. It was really dirty
Greqt video. How do can I figure out the percentage of sh? You did mention 1.5%. We are using 12% pool bleach
1,5 \ 12 = 0,125 then for example 5gal of producut put 5gal x 0,125 = 0,625 gal of 12% pool bleach and 4,375 gal of water give u 1.5%

What is Sh?
What tape do you use to cover?
Igor V. Shur tape
Southeast Softwash what model number shur tape?
That Japanese maple is a $60,000.00 dollar tree.
No it’s not
Can you tag “Bobby’s” page?
Thanks

"SH" as in sodium hypochlorite? How do you know what % your using if you mix it yourself?
Heart Healthy Hustle by Jonathan Frederick we use a mixing valve system
Obviously wet down all foliage
That’s the damnedest thing I’ve ever heard r
R out electrical outlet white snap crackle and pop. Stupid is stupid does.
$1000 ticket? that seems cheap?
MemphisMike not in podunk Alabama lol
Southeast Softwash LoL. Now thats funny! Im up here in Memphis. Some of our neighborhoods that would bring 2-3x’s more!
Thank you for not being perfect
Randy Hurtado only was 1 of those. He’s not here but coming back one day!
