This past week The Roof Wizard's Crews cleaned the exterior of this 12 unit condo complex in Wildwood, New Jersey. Once again, the radically changing Spring weather in the NorthEast was cold (48 degrees) and windy (35 MPH). Typically we can softwash to the top of these three plus story buildings from the ground, but not with those winds. We had to use our SWS water-fed pole attachment to get all the way up, for most of the building. The front of the building with all of the balconies was a challenge. Another issue, with most shore towns, is water pressure. We made fully use of booth booster pumps, which helped us complete the project in just over 8 hours.
Another great project by Roof Wizard, John! When you've got the right equipment, no job is impossible!

Nice project John. What was your mix and again how did you handle the windows, especially with the wind factor?

Thanks guys.
Steve,
we used a 1% mix. We kept the windows wet during the cleaning and we cleaned all of them with the scope of work. I do not give an option not to. I include it in my price and explain why.

Awesome job John! Assuming the ladder is laid down to protect your crew and hoses from vehicle traffic?

Thanks Troy. The ladder actually blew over with the strong winds.
