  1. Business License in NC?

    travlinjohn replied to a question in Residential Pressure Washing

    In NC you do not need a state license for pressure washing. Some cities and towns may require you to purchase a business license for $25-$50 yearly.

  2. Roof work: chemicals and methods

    travlinjohn replied to RyanH's question in Residential Pressure Washing

    50 % of our business is roof cleaning because we find it most profitable. We use sodium hydroxide exclusively. In the past seven years we have cleaned a number of roofs twice (repeat business) and have not found any noticable deterioation of the shingles. Although we have used both chemicals we've stayed with sodium hydroxide because it cleans the roof better, chlorine seems to leave streaks. We can always tell when a roof has been cleaned with chlorine. We also found that sodium hydroxide is not as damaging to plants as chlorine. One note: DO NOT USE SODIUM HYDROXIDE ON WOOD SHINGLES. As for equipment and cleaning methods we use I invite you to visit our web site at ***************** and click on **********home of the ************ Travlinjohn
