Here is a house I just pressure washed yesterday - some pics of the mold I had to remove -

If you're lucky you can charge extra for brushing gutters, but I don't. I include it with the price of the house. 10 cents per square foot. It's too competitive in my town and brushing the gutters usually gets me the job because my competitors don't do it.

"I am using TSP and nonylphenol non-ionic surfactants, just have to work out the ratios. I think I will try upping the nonylphenol. Steve Rowlet's citracleen uses sodium metasilicate and nonylphenol."

Dan, dude... :banghead: ... you are killing yourself. Your chemicals are fine, just invest in a 13Hp 4gpm 3500psi machine. You will get work done twice as fast and you can put a real chemical injector on it. A 20% high draw General. You will also need a good gun, hoses, the right nozzles. After four house washes it will have paid for itself with the time you save. Call me if you are serious about upgrading your equipment.
