I've been doing a bunch of banks (18)for the past 2 1/2+ years. Just recently the windows havent been coming out great They always have before and I still am using 12% & dawn and I also tried 12% & citra clean with same so so results. Now not all the windows are coming out bad but some and we are rinsing real well and not letting anything dry on windows Any Ideas why after all this time I start having problems. Could it be the windows just need cleaning after all this time. clean the buildings every 6 months could it be my solution over time leaving a build up that cant really be seen until the next cleaning?????????????????????????????????????

Since it's Earth Day...what is your company doing to "go green" this year?
Jeff replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Business Topics & Tips
I'm not talking about the ones that chain themselves to trees, I'm talking every day people that joined a movement or didn't join. I'm talking Earth day when they teach 1st 2nd and all school children then benefits of not polluting or the Jr high kids that are doing science fair projects on pollution . Not everyone is a nut job. I see all the green stuff I guess, but I like any think its just an every day thing and dont put much thought to it as left wing, this or nut job that You all sound like nut jobs talking about other nut jobs -

Jeff replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Business Topics & Tips
Green is alright. I am no environmentalist. Maybe the movement helped. I know in Boston Harbor you can now see seals that weren't there for decades, I see birds of prey in areas where they were extinct for decades. Theres a lot of areas that were trashed and now are clean. Great! I think the movement helped, keep it going, everything evens out and in the USA its helped. I'm not for saving every owl or insect that may be endangered, but if it can be avoided with and Extra scrubber here or filtration there its a good thing. I feel large industries that would pollute the most should have stricter rules just because they are so large theres more pollution and it should be kept in check Hell I made great money in the 80's & early 90's when they were adding scrubbers etc to power plants cleaning up the emissions. A lot of people made money and it helped clean up things Is going GREEN really that big, I really havent heard that much about it except around Earth Day -
Global Warming - YOUR Vote Please ?
Jeff replied to Apple Roof Cleaning's question in The Club House
Its the END....No matter what we as a world are creating pollution and pollution is a bad thing. Why can't we as a country and a world come up with all kinds of cleaner technoligies. I am all for it. I dont think it would hurt our economy to go cleaner, I have said it before it will bring more jobs and more industries and more money to our economy and maybe a lot less pollution -
All right need your help all you math people. Now please try to explain it so I can understand it. I have a local company JBS Industries that sells different concrete cleaners or products that can used for concrete cleaning/degreaser. They sell to PW companies but most of there products are for carwashes and Airport run ways. I'll save a good amount of money on chems & shipping if I can explain to them the ratio Im getting out of my xjet I use a 5.6GPM machine with a M5 Xjet, but instead of 3/8th hose on Xjet I use a 1/4 inch hose. Im not sure how to ask or even what Im asking. But what is the ratio of water vs chem coming out of my 1/4" Xjet and what else should I be thinking/asking Now I could just buy these chems from JBS and just try trial & error but Id like to be able to figure and tell JBS what ratios I need and am working with Now be easy with me Im not real good at this kind of math at all. I know you all are saying what a dumbass and what the heck is he doing in a biz that uses chems, but bare with me, got to learn sometime:dunno: Thank you JL

are you IN REALITY as financially stable this year as 5 years ago
Jeff replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Business Topics & Tips
Hey jon, if I didnt kill my parents I'm sure you will survive. NEVER give up on your kids I know many who have and those that dont give up, the kids usually end up alright sooner or............later My kids when they get to be teens are going to be perfect and never cause me any problems I hope the down turn doesnt last to long for our great country -

Jeff replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Business Topics & Tips
Like the song says, My futures so bright I got to wear shades. Yes I am better off than 5 years ago and ever before. I had high paying union job made good money but always for someone else. I have had and lost a lot over the years due to not growing up until my very late 30's. Now with hard work and just really enjoying being my own boss I get high off it. I sometimes wonder when things are going to screw up or fall apart. I always thought those wasted years were great. Oh I had some fun thats for sure. Things are just basically going nice for me now. In the back of my head I wonder if it can last. Even if it doesnt I will do things different then in the past and I know i will come out ahead.........unless I kick the bucket, that would be a bummer LOL I have a young family and I'm old, I figure I have about 15 years to make enough and save for me to live the rest of my life off of it and have enough for my wife and kids who will have many years past my life. My kids give me drive, motivation and the love for life that I have never had before, no matter what, bad economy, bad curcumstances whatever, I will truck on through what ever comes my way and I will be a success. Man I get pretty heavy some times don't I? Hell I can't wait to see what the next 5 years bring. The King !! LOL -
Jobs on top of jobs on top of jobs But Diesel prices are getting crazy Thursday at the station we go to was $3.94, Friday $3.99, Saturday $4.05, Monday $4.09 all i got to say is what the heck is going on with that I do know a lot of middle class in a few different feilds are loosing their jobs or have to transfer. There's a lot of people that are just holding the breathe. I wish something would just break and let the good times roll again. I'm lucky many are not.

Yes it was your responsibility and you should of fit it. But I understand what you were trying to do. The guy that stiffed you sucks for sure. You think you can trust people until you know their work ethic, you cant trust anyone. Last year I was passing a lot of my resi work to a local guy and now I don't I heard one ex customer tell me he didn't show up and another told me he did crappy work ( He washed their house and he took oxidation off around doors but no where else. You could see his wand marks. I cant trust him I no longer use him. I have two local guys Christian Pressure Work & David V A Plus and I can totally trust them to give timely estimates and to do good work. they have proven themselves to be very reliable and I now feel very comfortable with them. Its great to have Friends in the industry you can trust. You got a black eye on this one, like others say get a back up machine and have it with you at all times its worth the price to keep a good reputation. Good luck to you, live & learn brother

We are adding new PM's often a ton of repeat work and my #'s for the 1st 4 months have double over last year. I do have one developer that owes me and is paying in small increments, not a good sign, but he is the only developer property I do and am getting money but slow. the others are all governed by HOA's and have it in their budgets Even thou I don't target any residential and haven't for 2 1/2+ years I still am getting calls from referrals and the like The economy I think is scary for many and I would imagine many aren't as quick to spend. I instead of buying new trailer rig & truck have added another machine, I didn't want to take on any debt. I am paying it all down as quick as possible. Hope to be debt free in the biz in less than 2 years (hopefully). I am also hoping this isn't to prolonged downturn, because everything and every one will be effected sooner or later Good luck all!
