About this course

Most people who buy a pump and a drum of SH lose money on their first three months — not because soft washing is hard, but because they guess on chemical ratios, underprice jobs, and have no system for tracking what they used versus what they earned. This course closes that gap completely.

Why it pays for itself:

  • Built around the Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Operations Kit, every lecture walks you through a real sheet in the workbook, not theory.
  • You will set up your SH Mix Calculator on day one and never again guess how many gallons to mix for a 2,400-square-foot shingle roof.
  • You will use the Job and Roof-Type Log as your compliance backbone, documenting pitch, SH percentage, and plant-protection steps on every visit so you are never exposed if a customer calls about a dead azalea.
  • You will price from cost-plus logic, not neighborhood guessing, using the same Income and Expenses sheet that tells you whether your margins are healthy at the end of every week.
  • The course moves fast because operators do not have time for filler.
  • Each lecture ends with one action — something you do in the kit before the next video plays.
  • By the end of Section 2 you will have a real price for a real job type.
  • By the end of Section 4 you will have run, documented, and closed a job correctly.
  • By the end of Section 6 you will have an annual maintenance offer written and a referral system in place.
  • This is the course version of operator-to-operator knowledge: what concentration to use on concrete tile versus asphalt shingle, how to handle the plant protection objection on the phone, what the Income and Expenses net profit cell tells you that a bank balance never will, and how to build the kind of recurring maintenance base that makes your revenue predictable rather than feast-or-famine.
  • You do not need a license to watch this course, but you will need to get one before your first job — and we will tell you exactly what to ask for and why.
  • Come ready to work.

What you'll learn
