I doubt Michael would post a pic of a job in progress....plus theres way's to keep that from happening in the beginning.
How would not being done have anything to do ripping the cream off the concrete?
I hope you understand whats happened here, the contractor has removed the part of the cream from the finish. This is permanant damage, its not fixable.
Letting the cream dry on the surface creates another can of worms. When it drys its hard and could bond to the asphalt witch we know cannot take pressure. This creates a problem to remove, rinsing this may not work.
I'm very surprised you have never ran into this before?
This is a basic 101 in pressure washing and should be included in your class. Along with etching

Charlie, we shouldn't judge because we think they are done and they tell us they are, they might not be.
I think it is very sad Ron that you are jumping to conclusions on this picture because they probably weren't done with this job. How do we know they weren't done with this job??? How do we know they just didn't leave to go on vacation???? I think these questions need to be answered Ron before you go judging this picture. How do we know they weren't just off to the side of the picture working and were out of the picture????
Sorry he said its been like that for Months, sorry to mention those details. But your right it could have been done by there own people like Pats was. Who ever did the job its wrong to do either way, Pats job was wrong to leave that way also. We just have to know who actually left it that way before you can lay Blame.
I still think you might be possibly confused?

Perhaps they were off seeking professional advice at the time the photo was taken. Yes? No?

Larry, If you hurry, he only has ONE spot open, and it has your name written all over it. FYI, Sleazy car salesman snake oil selling is not included in this class, but for a discounted price, he will give you private lessons.....

This Job done by who we do not actually know.
Explain please

Ron, do you SERIOUSLY believe that the "hotel maintenance" washed the parking garage just before they were to have it "professionally" cleaned? I am sure you have that happen all the time....you have property managers have their handy men go out and wash your commerical properties just before you go to clean them. If you actually believe that the maintenance people cleaned it just before Pat did it, you are either very gullible or unable to face facts, or both....
Brother all I can do is believe what a man says happened. I'm not the judge of the jury for any contractor.
I just the other night caught myself taking photos of a contractor I lost a 72,000 annual gig I wanted. Never got a contract ratting on anyone, not going to start now. He will loose it because he is doing poor work, just lets hope he doesnt kill anyone in the mean time.
This brings me back to the real porblem at hand, 30 years & no standards. NONE
We wouldnt even be having this conversation that 3/4 of the forum doesnt get?
Micha was new at one time and a contractor called his work out. He low-balled a guy, even though Micha screwed up I didnt agree with the contractors who Ratted on Him.
This was also a hard feelings sistuation because he didnt get the job, sour grapes.
I hope men and women here learn from there mistakes, I do. I know better than to try to tell a manager a contractor is doing a poor job. That angle never works and will still not work.
I do take photos of Damage never blaming anyone. I do not know who damaged the place, I have no video tape. I take photos of filthy places under assumptions they have no one even if I know they do. ( in that Dishonest?) maybe you think in your world it is.
I also have never come on this BBS and named anyone in public for the piss poor jobs they have done.
I have also been witness ageist a few fellas for damage. Not that I seen them, just verified that it was caused by a pressure washer of some sort. Did I name there names or tell freinds? No
Why, because we all can have trouble. I have employees that are not perfect, we all make mistakes.

Yes, many of my current resorts own pressure washers, they rent from me also when there's are broke. During holiday down times we do heavy maint for many who actually do there regular maint. Yes we have actually been onsite when the regular guys where not told and PW the same day we where there.
