Great video pal. That three-story ladder jobs scare the hell out of me! I just purchased a new rubberized mat just for ladders to assist in stability. Glad you’re safe and sound buddy
I went to Roberts chemical today and mentioned this video. They said they didn't know why they were receiving more calls out of the blue initially :D I believe you can get a report on the SH batch you buy so you can know exactly what % it's at. I buy the 5 gal pails and he said those are usually 12.5 - 13%
That is awesome. I'm jealous but determined to start washing houses.just working out money issues to get there. I work about 250 hours a month on salary on a rice farm and only make $3000 all month. I would love to reach that kind of work. You are crushing it for sure. Good job. Also Cody at Southeast softwash is a great salesman no matter what anyone says. He knows all equipment and supplies that the industry needs. Thanks JD
new to the industry started part time last year, trying to go full time. Just looking what you use to market your business. Currently using yard signs. what would you recommend?
Sesw has a lot of good modern professional equipment to offer.glad u may get into some high equipment production could lead to more profits. You are doing great for the industry!;
@@powerfulimprovements The North Star is great. $420 it’s pretty darn good a lot of volume and can hit 3 stories easy. I have been rinsing out after every wash for a few minutes hasn’t died yet. The T-fitting barbs that are plastic got hairline cracking had to be replaced with some stainless steel fittings but that’s it.
There is NO WAY IN HELL, I'd up on that roof via a ladder!! I stepped off a single story roof, onto my ladder, that the home owner had just gone down. Right foot onto the ladder, & that was it! Ladder slid sideways, I ended up testing the strength of his wood deck with my ribcage, bounced off that onto his lawn. Decking won, in case your wondering....3 cracked ribs, out of action for 7 weeks.
Awesome day brother. Well when you get ahold of that super pump, you have to do some good videos on it. I mean if that has anything to do with your upgrades! 😉😄
@@powerfulimprovements ruclips.net/video/3MDbt0yfoGo/видео.html Theres a vid its from southeast soft wash. but i think the setup u got with x6 and your pressure washer together is about he same?
Did a Joe Deery special gutter blow the other day and took me 2 minutes to do over a 100 lineal metres. But took me 2 hours to clean up the mess I made. Bet you would’ve made more or got home sooner if the X6 didn’t play up. 5 a day. Wish I was that quick. Remember Mr Derry, one is none and two is one
It’s better that it happens early in the season and while it’s cool vs. it breaking down in the middle of the season and it’s HOT!!! May be a simple fix. I hope! That’s why it’s good that you have different options and two machines on the trucks. Yea you carrying around dead weight BUT you have it for when you need it!
AgroChem didn't make the cut this year? I used them last year and won't be doing that this year. In my backyard and still was a hassle. Wonder if Roberts delivers to Upstate NY. Good luck with troubleshooting the X6.
Complete beginner question here. With the 15% SH, will you be able to do more types of jobs using the X5 or you'll just dilute it more and still use the X6 for anything that require hotter mix ? As per my understanding, downstreaming with a 4:1 ratio should get you around a 3% mix at the gun with 15% SH.
Joe thanks for sharing your SH I have been having a difficult time getting someone on the phone for Agrochemical. Roberts is in Mass too that’s huge. 15% is awesome. The 5 gallon pails I’ve been getting from my pool supply haven’t worked to well. I’m guessing they’re a little old. Thanks a ton for posting this has been bothering me big time. Joe did they deliver to you or did you have to pick up?
I was having the same issue with pool supply chems. they definitely been sitting on it for a while and I've tried asking them how long its been around because it degrades and dont really get an answer. The stuff from roberts works great!
Roberts is my supplier. I'm lucky to have them just 10 minutes away 👍 If you're ever bringing your barrels back for the deposit let me know and I'd be happy to get you a coffee 💪
So what is the going price for roofs in the U.S. down here in the southern hemisphere some charge 1000 and that’s for a crappy job and some at 2500. And that is practically an all day’er. Most of our roofs are terracotta tile and very stubborn to clean due to people waiting until the roof hits 100 years. Mostly they wait until they have water damage.
This year I have been having a real hard time getting a hold of anyone to place an order. I’m easy. I order totes and pay over the phone when ordering. Thanks for the reply !
@@JDMSoftWashsorry for delay. We are close to $5 delivered when ordering IBC tote. We also get local delivery which is a few cents higher per gallon. Prefer local bulk but like to have 2 suppliers.
@@JDMSoftWash give or take a few cents … if I get bulk delivery it’s $5 delivered to my shop. If I order in 275 gallon totes it’s about the same … but you get a free tote out of it. I sometimes need extra totes so it saves me a few bucks and time going on marketplace, finding one then driving to pick it up. If you order an IBC w SH, it’s important to remember they weight close to 3,000 lbs so you need a forklift that can handle that weight to unload it. Otherwise you want get 55 gallon drums. Which you should always get increments of 4 because it help’s average out best price per gallon. (4 to a pallet for shipping is very closely priced to shipping just 1 barrel/drum)
OMG.. long time Fan of yours but I am sad to hear you are a SESW fan.... My opinion is he is about taking advantage of new guys .... Cody was great in the beginning but a lot of us OGs realized $$$ changed him.... But either way much respect and wash on. 😮 And your right you've never mentioned $ made in your videos until today... But since you mentioned SESW it makes sense. I just hope you stay humble and continue to promote individual growth as you have over the years here on RUclips and not give in to promotions of software.. or buying into "clubs" or skids to be a pressure washer like forever self employed , Cody and them.... Please don't say it's so..... But at the end of the day to each there own... Will have to see where this channel turns for me to decide for myself. Your a good guy and have always wished you the best... Please don't change....
Hey Chris. I appreciate the long time following, really. But I think you’re a little off the deep end here. I’ve used and promoted lots of things on my channel and will continue to support products I believe in. Flow Pro, Midwest, Southside Equipment, Jimmy Hall X6, Fresh Rinse Media, UZ Marketing etc. You choose what you want to watch and I’ll choose what I use and who I get it from
"New" Pressure Washing guys get sucked into cults of personality. He's the best! or They suck! Man, just get a pump sprayer, a can of pool bleach and an adjustable hose nozzle and reinvest in stuff that makes sense for you, your market and your set-up. Whether it's a minivan with a slide-out in the back or a F-250 dually with a skid, just get algae off of people's houses and get paid. Love you Joe! Hope your 204 is blessed
Wow you are crushing it also little jealous of the 15% hope you have a great season.
Thanks, you too!
Super day Joe, your right Cody is awesome 💯

Good thing you have a backup on your rig. I have a couple 5.3 gpm rimco pumps and a 24v northstar at 10 gpm which hasn’t died in 6 months.
How do you like the north star?
@@powerfulimprovements The North Star is great. $420 it’s pretty darn good a lot of volume and can hit 3 stories easy. I have been rinsing out after every wash for a few minutes hasn’t died yet.

Nice work day ! did you have to use heavier wiring switching from the 5.3 to the 7 gpm 12 volt ?
No need

15% will allow me to dilute yes. 4:1 is not realistic Downstreaming. 10:1 is just about max depending on you machine and injector set up
Ide be curious to know what happened with your x6 for future reference with my own.
I’m hoping to figure it out this weekend

What scheduling app is that at the end on the Ipad
Markate
how do you keep your 100 gallon bleach tank from leaking from the lids?
I try not to fill it all the way up. Otherwise it does slosh and leak. Typically I run it at 50-60
What do you use to edit your videos?
iPhone iMovie
Shoulda went with that P40 💨💨😂
Not ruled out
Roberts is my supplier. I'm lucky to have them just 10 minutes away 👍
If you're ever bringing your barrels back for the deposit let me know and I'd be happy to get you a coffee 💪
Will do!
RHATS BS 5k for that X6 and it has failed in the first quarter. Was gonna get it but now I’ll take a break on that idea.
I’ve been using it for over a year and countless hours. I’m sure it’s an electrical issue and not the pump itself
Just wondering who you use as your CRM?
Markate
How do you like that and how much do you pay a month?
What crm are you using?
Markate
I think a leak from the X-6 would put out more chem than that 12 volt did 😂
I think you’re right
Average of 450ish per job. Figured you’d be charging much more for roof jobs!
Nice work!
Cmon man. That doesn’t even Math.
@@powerfulimprovements you said 7 jobs! Haha . 3,100 day / 7 jobs = 450ish! Or am did you have less jobs? 🤣
So what is the going price for roofs in the U.S.

@@Kingdomprowash sorry. It was 6, some little some big
@@powerfulimprovements yes sir!!! Roofs over here in the Midwest go for a little more! Interesting to see in different parts of the USA 🇺🇸👊🏼
💪💪💪💪💪💪
💪🏼😎💪🏼
I want to say maybe it's a fuse cuz I can't see it being anything major for your X6 setup
I’m sure it’s electrical
Remco for the win
💪🏼
Is the new chemical company because AgroChem doesn’t answer their phone or call back anymore?
Agrochem is ok, it’s the shipping company that causes delay
