I just had my first baby girl today!
Layla Lee Schell was born at 4:23am February 16th weighing in at only 5 pounds and 10 ounces!
I am a very proud father. The experience is like no other I have had in life. I am officially a changed man.
Anyone interested in buying roofcleaninghoustontexas.com ?
I am putting it up as a premium domain name for sale on Godaddy right now for $299.00 but I will sell it to anyone on this board for $250.
Let me know if anyone is interested, its really easy to transfer...
And that is a good price...
So my goal was $1,000,000 in 2012 and we came close but no cigar! $900K which I am okay with because we beat last years numbers. But really thought we could do 1mill so in 2013 we are DEF passing our goal!
Anyway, going through my months I noticed June and July are by far the best months I had...
At least they added to it! haha
I saw this guy driving around Phoenix a couple months back
Definitely Mikes logo!
I don't think this is the first time this has happened to Ron either...
Ron is right, they are all pretty big in Paradise Valley. This is an 11,000 sq ft house we did yesterday.
Not nearly as big as the 25K sq ft house but still a nice sized job!
We recently power washed a 25,000 sq ft house in Paradise Valley. It was HUGE! So big they have a full time landscaping company 7 days a week and a butler. We never got to speak to the home owner. But I was just wondering what the largest house anyone ever power washed is??
I know 50 Cents, and...

FREE SHIPPING, not bad. Considering local guys sell this for $700 to random companies.
But was wondering if anyone knew of a place to get it cheaper?
Merry X mas to myself! We decided to get rid of the majority of our Flatbed trucks and switch over to trucks and trailers. Ron was right again! haha
We traded in 3 of our flatbeds and got 5 new trucks! So we have all Chevy Fleet now with the exception of 1 dodge 3500 cummins diesel. Too nice of...
So I was wondering what you guys think the correct % of income to pay out for ownership salaries?
What do you guys pay yourself based on your gross income?
For example if you make $500,000 a year is 15% of that a good salary for the owner? So $75,000...
Am I too low or too high? Just...
Answer: THERE IS NO SUCH THING!
I am pretty pumped up, I just dropped 4 new websites for sweeping! I have over 30 websites now, 34 to be exact. I'm wondering if that is a record in the power washing industry? haha
Some of them look the same, but they have minor differences. Also, some of them...
I woke up this morning and checked through my emails to see how all the work went last night and one of my employees wrote this:
Both Jobs were completed without any issues. Only thing is when I was gassing up my truck at Chevron on 24th st & Washington when a man standing at the window for...
Just picked up a new Sweeper today! Super happy about it. I got the truck for $7500 2005 Chevy 2500 w 60K. But it is the best looking sweeper in my fleet so far. Can't wait to start sweeping parking lots in Phoenix!
Check it out:
Its got hydraulic dump for the hopper and all controls from...
20 day job, 4 units running 100 degree heat, with DI water.
Check it out: solar panel cleaning in Phoenix, AZ
But it is HOT! My guys were drinking 3 bottles of water an hour. One of my most interesting jobs yet.
When speaking with customers do you guys say power washing or pressure washing? Or both? Which term do you prefer to use?
When I speak with my customers I usually go with whichever term they are using at that time, but I tend to say pressure wash more than power wash.
Also, which would you...
We were audited for our workers comp and they are saying we exceeded our amounts on payroll that we put down and we owe $9,000. I then audited their audit to find they are trying to claim our subcontractors as employees and said we need to pay workers comp on our subs. One of the subs is my...
I created a new vision board for my company today, anyone else use vision boards?
A vision board is basically pictures similar to a collage of things you want to have in the future for your company. It helps you keep your eye on what you need to grow and remember what your goals are and...
I was thinking about how Ron is selling out for $$$$$$$ in a couple years and it made me wonder how much I could sell out for... Do you guys know what the going rate is... Like for example, if I grossed $1Mill this year and profited 25% of that how much do you think I could sell out for?
I know...

This is crazy, you could not pay me enough to go out on that building. I wouldn't mind the contract though!
Just wondering what most people have working for them... Including sales guys, employees, secretaries, how many families are you feeding?
I am feeding 14 families total now, and it is growing everyday.
I got married to my fiance of 4 years on Saturday and we are off to her home town of Puerto Rico! Staying at the W Hotel in Vieques... its like paradise!
So i won't be talking power washing for a couple weeks... hold down the boards while I'm gone! Haha
FINALLY A VACATION!
