My company won the pressure cleaning portion of a $500,000 project by the University of Florida where these funds will be spend on 15 historic properties in St. Augustine, Florida (the oldest city in America.) My wife was able to get the newspaper to publish a front-page article about this project in today's paper. The first building is our town's signature building, the Government House, built in 1759 right across from the Plaza de la Constitution. I brought on Mike Barrett of Barrett's Pressure Cleaning as my partner. Mike and I met at the Tampa RT in July of 2009 and have done 4 major cleaning projects together since then. We are about half way through this project with everything cleaning up better than anticipated. UF brought in a well known property preservationist that we are working closely with as the utmost care of these properties comes before anything. W.G. Mills, Inc. is the general contractor and this is just the beginning of what may be a great long-term relationship with them. We begin on the Spanish Military Hospital (restoration of original building from 1791) next week. My company was highly recommended to W.G. Mills by the City of St. Augustine as I have done two large cleaning projects with them. We are delighted to be involved with such a high-profile restoration project.

A link to the newspaper article is below as well as link to my Facebook page showing more pictures. Dramatic before and after pictures to be posted soon.

when I read the story this quote stood out:

"We're doing exteriors first," .... "A lot of people judge you from the curb."

And here I was thinking that there was nothing to Pressure Wash in Saint Augustine cause I thought they liked it looking old. LOL...Great job David and Mike. :thumbup2:
 
That is great, congrats on the job. Too bad they didn't mention the name of "the pressure washer" in the picture or the article...tell Steph to get on top of the PR for God's Sake!!!! ( Steph is my sister, I can say that)

Also too bad about being ranked #8.
 
Nice job David! I go to the University of St. Augustine, do you do their cleaning if not let me know I might have a person there for you to talk to.
