Thanks..Now for the next question what kindof numbers can be charged for this service?? I know just get what your time is worth. It's a copper area on the top of an average size bay window. I was thinking atleast $125.00.
-
I guess I should have benn clearer. I am not looking to do this with my PW. I figured I would have to use some kind of rubbing compound with a high speed wheel or alot of elbo grease.
-
Does anyone know how to and or what to use for restoring copper? I have a customer that wants it as close to new again as possible.
Thanks,
Rob

I agree 100% with what your saying but I just don't want to rip them or myself off that's all.

So I received a call today from a local Hotel looking to get some PWing done. They would like a bid on the sidewalks, curb and gutter and the sideing which is white vinyl. The building is three stories and roughly 30,000 sqft interior. My question is what is the going rates for something like this?? I don't get into much commercial work so I'm not real sure what the market allows for. I know what to charge for the sidewalks but if I charge my average rate for a 2 story or larger it will come to around $3,450.00 just for the siding..does that sound right? I was also wondering what curb and gutter is going for?
Thanks,
Rob

Thanks for the info!!

I have been getting quit a few requests lately for cleaning residential windows. Could someone fill me in on the going rate? I don't want to rip off the custeomers or sell myself short.

While we are on the subject how often do you guys change your pump oil?
-
From what I heard on a radio program it does not affect small business cold calling other businesses but you cannot call residence.

Tony,
What is a spst switch? Is it an on/off switch or does it regulate pressure? Either way I think I will need to have both. Do you use a filter on the inlet? I will be using this set up to spray product onto cedar roofs so my line will be around 150-200 feet. I was able to pick up some 3/8 line from the place that I got the tank and pump from. When I bought this stuff they told me to call and they will walk me through setting it up...well guess who hasn't returned any of my calls:rolleyes: Thanks for any input you may have.

I just picked up a 120psi (115v) pump and a 15gal tank. Can some one lead me in the direction of the best way to assemble this thing? I can't get up with the place I ordered it from for help so I could really use some. I have a job I need it for next week.

CPR is not a stripper but a cleaner. You can't really compair the 2. You will not be disapointed with the HD-80.
-
Thanks! any thing else you can think of?
-
I have a deck that is covered in laytex and would like some imput on strippers that will work. I have HD-80 and will try that but it would be nice to have some options.
-
I am looking forward to all you have planned for the board. The speed definately needs to be addressed though, it's even sluggish w/ a high speed connection.
-
anyone have a link to a shooter tip?
-
Has anyone used this thing? I'm thinking of getting it to use for treating cedar roofing. Does it put out a good flow? Is it worth the $160.00?
-
I can only compair the xjet and the m5. I just picked up the m5 this week. (I didn't put my xjet away properly and it fell off the trailer :() The adjustable spray is great but I would have to say it has nowhere near the range of the original xjet. Probably like 5 or more feet less. The draw rate is definately greater too. I went through almost 15 gallons of wash on the first house I used it with then I changed it to the 1/4" line I had from the old one. I know the draw rate isn't that good with the 1/4" but I'd rather have to spray chems longer than waist them. I'll probably experiment with the 3/8" line and the proportioners when I get time.

I looked a few places to see if I could find how long that deal on 8-5gal pails is good for could you help me out on this please. I think I have that job sold I mentioned and don't want to miss out on the deal.
-
Paul you are correct SH will/can damage ashalt shingles that's why I don't want to use it. I know it is the most widely used chem. for cleaning roofs but to me it's not worth the risk.
-
anyone?? yes no? I think it can because I think it is a percarb??? I haven't used the efc-38 but would like to get some and would like to know if it has multi uses.

It sounds to me like if the guy does his own prep he may be one of those guys that sprays on bleach from Lowes, washes each board with 3500psi, a15 degree nozzle and stays about 6 inches away from whatever he is washing. That may be why he is expecting the paint to flake off. A word of caution.. if the house hasn't been painted for a long time the paint on it might contain lead.
