  1. Hi, I was just wondering if there was any other window cleaning forums that anyone knew of. Thanks
  2. Hey guys I was just seeing if anyone else was a member over at that forum. I have applied 2 times and neither time has my account been approved. One of my users is cmturner. If someone could PM one of the mods for me I would appreciate it, I got lots of questions coming up that need some answers. Thanks everyone
  3. Wax for Vinyl Siding

    We charge an additional 25.00 for wax on any house wash, wax goes directly into the wash mix. Along with the wax treatment the customer gets an 18 month warranty against mold or mildew regrowth on the siding. I would say 90-95% of homeowners pay the extra 25.
  4. Hot water skid direction

    Careful putting the heaviest up close to the tongue, I bend the tongue down on a little single axle trailer last year from over loading. Surprised the crap out of me when it did it, pretty well touched the ground. Good thing I have a good friend that is a welding wiz.
  5. Man that is freaking funny, any word on the job though?
  6. I have a customer that wants the whitewash lightened on their redbrick. I am guessing that the previous homeowners had it done pretty white, well now this lady wants more of the red brick to shine through. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have 4gpm, 4000psi and hot water. This is a first for me I haven't ever had a request for this one.
  7. Removing whitewash off of red brick

    Here is a photo of it. I am starting to think that I might pass on this. Seems like it might be a super pain to maintain consistency on the house.
  8. Considering a water fed pole system, probably a tucker type C with a tucker DI tank. Are the windows cleaned with a WFP as clean as windows cleaned with a swab and a squeege. Also should I go with the type C or something else. Just wanting some feedback from people who have used them. Thank you

  10. Democrat ? Republican ? Independent ?

    I am a true conservative. I think GW has just really let the base of the party down and has turned out to be not all that conservative on several issues. I am sick and tired of working every day just so the people that take advantage of our intitlement society that we created can go home and eat prime rib while we are eating Mac and Cheese. I used to be an asst manager at a grocery store and it would burn my ass at the beginning of the month when we would cut the biggest packs of the best meat because we knew it would sell quick, and not for cash. I had one customer that had a Motorola Star Tac(right when they first came out) and about 5 screaming kids that she no more paid attention to as the man on the moon, but she always had a full cart of brand name. Hell the first time I seen her phone was the first time I had ever seen one in person. I believe socialized healthcare will not work, look at our educational system. Most people in countries that have it hate it. I hear people say that "I just can't afford my medicines" I agree that crap is high without insurance, BUT if the gov't wasn't paying for 90% of medicines consumed to you really think it would be that high. Supply and demand says no, because people wouldn't beable to afford it. Anyone that says there is no work out their ain't looking either, I have never went more than a week without work unless I choose too. People are so dang lazy now and expect it all to be handed to them. Here in conservative based Missouri and disaster strikes we start fixing things, not sit there and wait on the Gov't to show up, when did that become the gov't job. I am also tired of rebuilding the same house 2 and 3 times with my tax money. Ok I am done ranting. Thank You guys

  14. Hey guys I was wanting to see what everyone else is doing to clean windows with a arch in them. This particular window is about 22ft to the bottom, then the window is about 10ft tall and probably 6ft wide, no real good way for me to work it even with a ladder.
  15. Contract in Word Doc

    Hey Ron I will take one if your still in the giving mood, It is greatly appreciated. 573-358-8821
  16. Thanks for your help guys. I am waiting to here back from the culligan man now on a DI tank. I think I am gonna go ahead and buy a 45ft tucker single hose with a dispenser, just in case I need to use some detergent. Most people I have been talking to don't even use soap as long as they got good water. I am thinking I will order a couple good brushes with it also. I am thinking that I might even start using it on low windows even, from what I have been reading they are using them overseas everywhere.
  17. Weapons for protection

    Hi guys, long time reader first time poster. I work full time at a prison in Missouri. Inside I rely hardcore on my pepper spray and verbal judo, however outside I rely on my Ruger P90 .45 with hydroshock hollow points. My thoughts behind this is that inside I know that the guy coming at me doesn't have a gun, and that inside help is just seconds away. When I am out and about working in the middle of the night I will typically wear my 45 on a tactical leg holster so that it is in plain sight. I do have my CCW but having that big of a pistol in that kinda holster seems to make people less likely to have much to say. Anyone that is going to carry a gun of any kind needs to make sure that they are very comfortable, and that they are ready to use it if need be. True story from local gun shop owner: His brother drives a tow truck in St. Louis. Anyone that knows St. Louis very well knows that north city isn't a very nice place to be at day or night. Well he had to go to pick up a car after dark in north city. While he was hooking up the car 2 guys with bars came out of an alley. All he did was hold one arm up in like a "I mean no harm" type gesture and used the other hand to raise up the side of his coat to show his shoulder holster with his pistol in it. He told the guys that he didn't want any trouble and just needed to get this car. Both of the guys just backed off back up into the alley without saying a word.
