A tip that I ran across on another board. After a house wash / deck restoration- the last thing the guy does is apply Mircle -Gro to the plants- (just uses the MG sprayer and garden hose) says the homeowners love it, the plants look better than they ever did within 2 days- and only pennies to do.

Kristina, No offense taken, Kristina. It's just that there are alot of other markets in PW and each has it's own techniques, equipment, and chemicals to use. Housewashing, deck restoration, vent cleaning, fleet cleaning, flat work, roof cleaning- that isn't even half of them. An idea for you. One market that you might look at- do some searches on- that is a fairly easy place to start- and very little chance to do damage- would be cart washing. Go to the largest grocery store chain in your area- wash the grocery carts for them. Check the local rules / laws first about reclaimation- if needed or not in your area- and acceptable chemicals to use. Good luck1

Whoa, careful there hoss! Maybe surf around for 10 hours or so on every PW site you can find. Read the posts until your eyes start to water. Then ask questions, and read some more. If you take your time, educate yourself, then hopefully you won't discover how difficult- not easy, it can be. That way, maybe you won't get a call from your customer saying that you have damaged their siding, blew out the seals on their windows, spotted them, killed their grass and plants, and got overspray on their neighbor's house- and they would both like you to stop by later to ask you who your insurance carrier is. You do have insurance coverage, right? And- bleach and soap are chemicals. Used in the right way- very effective- used / mixed wrong- very dangerous. Good luck to you. Start surfing!
