I am bidding on a travertine building (smooth with pitted areas....almost a glassy look up close) that needs cleaned. Haven't cleaned this type before but i was thinking a HW DS mix or a weak roof mix. Any words of advice?
I worked a Hunting and Fishing Expo this weekend with my brother in law. He is a hunting guide in Pike County, IL and I helped him work his booth. Even though I never saw the show, I got to meet the crew of Lick Lizard Towing that airs on tru tv.
I know most of you dont do this, but what are you paying your guys for mileage if they use their own vehicle? I have a guy that works part-time for me, and he uses his own vehicle to do commercial route windows. Whats the going rate on paying mileage?

Looking to add a pump to a 13hp motor. A 5.5GPM pump should put me at about 2200 +/- PSI. I will be using this for a softwash housewash rig. Here is the question. Which one makes the difference (PSI vs GPM) for throw with my Downstreamer? I am looking to get the same amount of distance out of...
I was just thinking the other day about customer feedback from places like google, AL, Kudzu, Hot Frog, etc. If your customer gives you a very good complement over the phone or in person on how great of work you do, have you asked them to give you a review on any of these sites? I had a customer...
Looking to see if anyone has tried Downstreaming Copper Sulfate from a PW. I am looking for an upsell for or regular Roof Cleaning package and wondering what ratios you have tried or would recommend. This will be applied after the roof has been cleaned as a mold inhibitor.
I have some ammonyx Mo that I put in a bucket awhile back, and forgot about it. It was about 2 gallons worth and about a gallon of it on the top has gelled on the top layer. Any suggestions on how to make it back liquid? I'm not talking about a soupy mix here, I'm talking like a big gel...
I do this Outback every other week, but the concrete has exposed aggregate on the walkways. I know it is from contractors in the past who didnt know what they were doing to try to get the grease up. We treat this everytime we do it and clean it with hot water, and it looks great for the first...
I am looking at ideas for doing a partial wrap on our new truck. I did a search for Truck wraps, most of them are a couple of years old, and I know alot of guys are starting to get their vehicles wrapped. I want to put them all in one place, so please post your truck wraps.....
Just got a good deal on this truck and will be better to pull our rig. I usually carry 2-3 guys with me so I needed more power and more space.....We have needed another truck and I will still use our other truck.
Well, i did my first home show and I have to say, I was pretty pleased with the over all results. We will be doing our second one next weekend, but it is a smaller venue. Last year they had 12,000 people, but they said that the crowds were down this year because of the thunder storms and cold...
I was wondering what you guys would do. I have a guy that has stolen my gutter pic off of me and is using it on his website. Those of you who know me, know it is my pic. I have even let Bob from Pressure Tek use it for the F-13 pic. You can even find it on my website...
We have some issues with gnats at our house. My brother works for a pest control place and treats our house, but it seems they are laying their eggs in the soap buildup in the whirlpool bathtub and sink drains. Also, they are laying their eggs in the jets of the tub also. My wife loves her...
Got a call today from a company who is marketing vinyl covers for phone books. Although I know the phone book market is a dying venue (we pulled our ads about 3 years ago), this guy was selling 2x4 in space on the front cover for $189 with a distribution of 20,000 through realtors and stores...
I have a new Service/customer form that we are starting to use in house, and right now I am having them printed on a triplicate form NCR. I am wanting to use my PDF file and use it in some form of auto fill where it will just go to the spaces to fill in when doing it on the computer, instead of...
I am always looking for ways to market and BRAND my company. Of course, the least amount you can spend for the most exposure is the name of the game, hence the term ROI (Return on Investment). I would like to hear some of the ways you guys can think of marketing or branding your company for...
I thought this video was kind of fascinating. I have worked with Homeless people before with ministries of church, and most of them are where they are at because of things that have happened to them and they don't really want help, just want to sponge of the condition they are in. Basically...
Hey guys,
I have 4 five gallon buckets of Ammonyx M (some places call it Gription or Apple Butter) ready to be shipped out. I bought a drum of it and am selling half of it. I really really like this stuff for roofs! This is the M not the Lo. the difference is the M is thicker and you use less...
