Got a call from the Sherrif,s office. He told me he had a complaint about a pressure washer guy overcharging a customer. I thought to myself WTF! I always try to give good pricing and great service. He said it wasn't me. Some poor old lady paid $1,200 for a 1200 square foot housewash. He was...
Some pics from a cedar shake style metal roof cleaning. It has a lot of nooks and crannies that holds tree debris that caused green streaks down the front of the house. I had to get a 40 ft man lift to hover above it all and pick out the crud. My first lift job. It went better than expected.

Some contractors changed caulking on some windows and left some tea looking residue on a natural Ipe deck. I have cleaned, prepped and stained plenty of treated pine and cedar decks and fences. It's my first Ipe deck. I would like to know my options before I accept the job. What I need to know...

Bad coastal thunderstorms should end today. I guess today is catch up on equipment maintenance day. We will do a couple of days work Sunday to play catch up. Yah, I know. I'm a heathen because I work on Sunday's. Got bills to pay.

I had an unloader that decided to bypass most of the water going through it. Russ took the time over the phone to help me figure out my unloader was good and my chem ds was clogged. I almost bought a new unloader but he suggested I check the flow first. Back in business, Thanks again Russ
I am going to toss the truck magnetic signs and go with professional lettering for the truck and trailer. I would appreciate any and all advice and past experience on what to display and what to not display. Just to give you an idea of my services. I do commercial/residential concrete, soft...
My pw motor rpms slowed down some during a job on Saturday. The throttle backed off by itself so pressure was lower than it should be. You could push it back to full throttle but it would back itself off a bit. I do not know if the motor was self governing or the pump load was increasing...
