I was washing my motor home and a neighbor from down the block walking the dog asks if i could take a ride down and try cleaning his roof....
I throw the pressure washer in the back of the only vehicle available, and head down the street with guy, to a subdivision of homes approx guess of 90 X 50 wide homes with white slate tops completely covered with mildew and green slime.......
After a quick hook up to the water spicket ,i slice through the green slime like butter, and did about half the job... Then i said hell i`m wet anyway ,and just finished it off real quick....
I used my old home owner 3gpm- 2700 psi honda for this...
He now wants to know how much to paint... I figured about 20 gallons of roof white will do and i will replace about 5 cracked slates at most...
I told his $1200 and he said O.K put the paint on , he cant Waite to see what it will look like when it`s really white....
I went home called , checked on the paint price , and went back up to his place to make sure deal is set...
6 of his neighbors are staring at the glittering white non-slimed roof astonished at what was hiding under the green slime...
Now They want their roofs pressure washed and painted....Luckily guy #1 told them he was paying me a minimum of $1200 because i was unsure about the price of the paint but they didn't blink and i think they would even go higher....
I`m sure all the homes will need some slates replaced also but that is nothing...
Whats a fair price for a 5000 sq ft roof, cleaned painted and a few slates replaced.... 3 slates pr house at most....
I wanted erich to tell me how that HONDA 4ghm/ 3600 home depot model worked out, because i figure with the 7 houses and about 15 others, on the block that will also want the work done it is a good excuse to buy my new play toy and get some sun on my back...
SCOTT, GRASSMASTER, SOMEBODY with pressure washer knowledge....
Am i ripping them off without them knowing it, or is it a normal price????
I was amazed how easily the slime sliced off with my older unit ,and think this will be like a $500 pr hour job if they all clean like the first house....
I was amazed when i said ahhhh $1200 or so and he said lets do it...
Whats the going norm for pressure washed and painted pr sq foot????
Thanks if someone can chime in , TRANS....
