I found an article today that was presented to everyone at the RCIA from Chris Tucker a friend from Tampa and owner of Apple Roof Cleaning. This is for everyone who wanted to know if Chlorine / Sodium Hypochlorite is safe for people, pets and plants as well as the environment and roofs.

Note: All major and non major roofing manufacturers recommend the CORRECT use of chlorine bleach as the base chemical for cleaning roofs just FYI!

Here is the article as a copy and paste from the RCIA website.
Here is the low down on Sodium Hypochlorite.

Human and Environmental Safety

During the last few years there has been a concerted effort to investigate and assess the human and environmental safety aspects of sodium hypochlorite. An extensive review of the literature has been undertaken by many investigators and the conclusions drawn are that sodium hypochlorite is safe for humans and the environment.

Depending on the concentration involved, hypochlorite solutions can be classified as either irritant or corrosive and appropriate precautions should be taken when using the product, carefully reading the label, adhering to cautionary warnings and following usage directions. Particular attention must be paid to not mixing with other products, such as toilet bowl cleaners, rust removers, ammonia or acids. Although skin and mucous membrane irritation can occur when the exposure concentration is greater than 5%, these effects are reversible. The overall safety of sodium hypochlorite is further documented by reports from poison control centres in North America and Europe which show no major health effects after unintentional ingestion or skin contact. The unpleasant taste of the product prevents unintentional ingestion of significant quantities and thereby limits the extent of injuries. It is documented that sodium hypochlorite is not a mutagen, carcinogen, teratogen or skin sensitizer. Indeed, in the context of its use in drinking water, IARC (the International Agency for Research on Cancer) has concluded that chlorinated drinking water is not a "classifiable" human carcinogen. Under normal household use, sodium hypochlorite is broken down in the environment into table salt, oxygen and water. Other substances may be formed, to a small extent. These by-products are most often referred to as AOX (adsorbable organic halides). A great many studies have been made to provide a risk assessment of household bleach in terms of its formation of AOX. The conclusions drawn were:
  • the amount of AOX is very small both in absolute terms and relative to other human activities and natural sources,
  • the majority of these AOX are easily degradable,
  • the AOXs formed are primarily water soluble and not bio-accumulative.
  • highly chlorinated species, such as dioxins, are not formed.

The conclusion of the Swedish Environmental Research Institute was that sodium hypochlorite "does most probably not create environmental problems when used in the right manner and in recommended quantities".

Conclusion

Sodium hypochlorite has a long history of safe use in homes, hospitals and schools, and it is widely available at low cost to consumers. It is highly beneficial to basic hygiene and good health due to its disinfecting and sanitizing qualities. It kills all known germs and a wider range of bacteria than other disinfectants, and it helps to prevent the spread of diseases through water and surfaces.

Orlando Roof Cleaning and Pressure Washing Services


Orlando Roof Cleaning by Tropical Roof and Exterior Cleaning Systems using NON PRESSURE Safe Roof Cleaning methods and chemically injected pressure washing services as well as paver sealing, tile roof painting and restoration, full service gutter cleaning and screen repairs.

Our Roof Cleaning service is a Non Pressure Roof Cleaning that is manufacturer approved by all manufacturers of roofing materials. Our roof cleaning solution is applied with a 12 volt electric pump evenly over the entire roofs surface and cleans almost immediately removing all black and green mildew discoloration. It kills the mildew unlike pressure washing that just cuts the top of the mildew off like mowing grass as well as pressure washing any type of roof whether it is shingle or tile will cause irreversable damage and water intrusion. Pressure washing a roof will not last as long, chemical roof cleaning lasts 20 times longer and is safer, more cost effective and will restore your roof to new in a single day. No worry about dead plants no worry about paint damages no worry about roof damages. We use our solution to clean all surfaces to ensure that the cleaning lasts and you get your full moneys worth and NOT a SHORT term temporary fix.

We do use pressure washers to clean every other surface but we are not the stereotypical pressure washing guys you see doing up close blasting of surfaces which can be damaging as well. See, we used to do it all with the electric pump and a water hose method like certain bigger companies do but the problem was we never could get an exact percentage of mix since every surface requires a certain mix ratio plus a water hose to rinse off an exterior?? Never really gets it all off! We have all custom application and rinse tips and our machines are equipped with chemical injection systems that only let solution through with certain tips. We first apply the solution in big sections usually 1/2 the house (2000 sqft) home and then go back and switch to rinse tips which only allow fresh water to come through and rinse the exterior off with fresh water. This system is 10 times more efficient, safer and thorough than the pump and waterhose method. I can and will use either upon special request but I recommend our preferred method. It is more work setting up and breaking down the equipment for us but the results are stellar and more effecient cleaning wise.

Exteriors, Pool Enclosures, Pool Decks, Driveways and Sidewalks, Wood and Vinyl Fences and all other surfaces are still chemically cleaned we never clean anything with plain water because we want it to last for you and we work for your repeat business just like every single client we have. We are always busy and we are always steady and we will be here to stay. We love cleaning roofs and all other exterior surfaces that is our profession that is our passion not just a job. We take pride in our work and we take care of you always.

Orlando Safe No Pressure Roof Cleaning and Pressure Washing all other surfaces safely without any damages and you will have long lasting results since we always use cleaning solutions with all of our cleaning services not plain water.

I have been super busy over the last 3 months and have had little time to post blogs for Tropical. We have been cleaning a lot of new customers homes and also repeats and referrals. We are getting so busy to the point where I may have to hire 2 more techs and a salesman. The reason I have not hired another crew to do the work is simply: I used to work for a big company and have seen first hand the results of big companies and the employees they hire and not all are bad but have bad habits like doing the Friday shuffle or 5 O'clock shuffle to get off work early. I have always considered hiring a 2nd crew and when it all comes down to it I just can't trust someone servicing a customer of mines home. I worry about a poor job, or damaged plants or other problems that I have never had with Tropical. I have high expectations and standards on every job we do. I will not even consider ever selling my business because of what I have built and accomplished just to see it get tarnished by someone who does not have a good business ethic.

I have finially found probably the best assistant I have had since I started Tropical. Blaine Partee is now full time and will be doing sales and service while we look for the next member of Tropical. What I am looking for is a NON-SMOKER, a legal US citizen, drug free (drug testing is MANDATORY!!), must have own transportation, at least 4 years experience in the roof and exterior cleaning industry with references and a background check, willing to work weekends and willing to be paid weekly not daily. I pay 100.00 per day 8am to 5pm starting pay and 5% extra for leads and 15% for sales commission also 150.00 per day for days that are $1500.00 or more in production which are common but our average day is $1000.00 in production. Once proven that you can do all the cleaning services and sealing services without issues and keep equipment in 100% perfect shape a raise will be given. I do not want anyone who is prone to wanting days off on short notice except for real emergencies, I need a reliable clean cut person who takes pride in thier work and is driven to sell more services while on the job. No excessive piercings or tattoos, no criminal records no exceptions period. Sorry, I have had a bad experience with a great tech who had personal issues and had to let him go. I want a person who is real, and who is a good people person that acts, dresses and talks professional and educated. I give 1 chance and that is it no plant damage, no property damage, no short cuts and no mess left behind. I do not accept complaints from business and homeowners. I will look into the issue before I make a decision since issues may not even be an issue.

If I can go 14 years without damaging anything then it is possible to do a perfect job. Our goal on every project is to gain repeat business and I am really good at that since 90% of all homes I have cleaned I have done more than 1 time and I have several hundred homes I service.

If you think you can live with my standards of how my business works and need a job then give me a call or Email your resume' to info@tropicalroofandexterior.com and I will set up a lunch interview meeting with you.
