I use a 3-25 tips on my Big Guy 5.6 gpm 3500 psi is that a good tip to use or would a 15 degree be better. What do you think pro & con Will a 15 degree cut into the dirt better. Just wondering Thanks JL

I checked out websites of many manufacturers of vinyl siding Owens Corning, CertainTeed etc etc. In the warrenty, care & maintenance section they all say bleach can be used to clean mold/mildew from siding I'd just like to know who puts this miss infomation out there about it damamging siding. I had more than one residential customer over the years say that there siding company told them not to use bleach Bleach removes mold & mildew plain & simple. Im going to highlight sections of material i printed saying use bleach & send it in with my proposal I wouldnt mind getting this job 38 buildings good sized project JL

Did the awnings yesterday , will post some pics soon. They came out real good, there was mold and pollen on them, a couple small spots the mold was a little thick. Cleaned right up I used RPC Citraclean a little 12% applied with low pressure Xjet, and a low pressure rinse & rinsed again. Everything came out great Heck I wont be afraid of doing awnings in the future Thanks all JL

Thanks everybody, I'm going to try to write something up for the PM to give to the HOA and ask him if I can speak with the HOA Thanks again JL

Some people just dont get it, theres mildew growing everywhere if they have it on 2 sides I like the people who want you to clean all therim, windows but not the brick, Like how can you just wash everything but the brick. They think they'll save money. I tell them I have to wash it all at a full house wash price Crazy people

Well with the wifey pregnant we didnt get to go out and get real crazy, but e had a blast with Joshua, he loves the bikes now, he's a great age . We took him out every night to do some bike watching JL

Fun was had by all, come on down for Biketoberfest its almost as big and fun Pic of Josh with his bad biker look JL

Some more crazy bike stuff. The metal ball was cool too, 1st one guy rode in it then they added another bike and then put a girl in there, they are insane spinning around holding hands and all kinds of crazy stuff

These guys were sooooooooo cool , Joshua & me flipped out over these guys. Josh wants a dirt bike now. These guys were 12, 17, 18 & 21. This was a new addition for Suck, Bang, Blow in Murrells Inlet When they land they had about 15 feet to stop. The show went on for over an hour, it was WILD JL

Thats Mommy & Josh, we might be calling the new Baby, Jessica its a kind of common name now, but we both like it We are really getting excited.:lgbounces My house gets listed this week JL

Finally got the trusses in and started framing last week,They had some trouble at the truss company, very complicated trusses, Its going to be a nightmare roof to clean if I ever have to clean it. Maybe I'll call one of you all to clean it LOL

Bill what the heck are you saying sorry to me for, that was some funny stuff!!!!!! Have a great one !!!!! JL

I would go through Jeff's threads to find it, but I am already old. Huh??? Very funny but true I guess.

I was working all day after working the night before until 3 am PWing, I and my guys were tired, I have a real sore shoulder and I was pissing & moaning a little. We are getting my house ready to list for sale, so I was tired moving furniture, because i have some new carpeting & linoleum being put in this morning. I'm thinking what a PITA all this is, My wifes pregnant, real busy business & personal life, the builders of the new house are calliing asking questions, we are picking things out for the new house, have relatives in town, just so darn busy with life. Well I was hungry so I ordered some Italian food from down the street. I went to pick it up and I had a beer (much needed). I go here a lot for food and I was talking to one of the waitresses and she was running her ass off, she's in her 30's has a 3 year old and works 2 fulltime jobs. As I was sitting there and watching this tired women running around like crazy and she sat with me a minute and she was telling me she had to come up with rent for a new place the place she stays the homeowner is moving here and she has to move out after 5 years You know I'm thinking , Im complaining about my busy life and then I just laughed and thought Life is good, and I have it made. Heres this poor women killing her self just to put a roof over her childs head. God bless her she's a hard worker Life is good, just thought Id share yesterday experience with you all. I gave her a $50 tip and she said no. I had her take it and told her to use it Everybody HAVE A GREAT DAY!!! JL

Have fun even when it starts to get crazy. Your going to have your hands full Enjoy JL

Barlox is a great product but procey, I use dawn or RPC Citra Clean

Doesnt sound profitable, They are building a new Kohl's up the street from me, the 1st in the area. I was going to try to get the work, doesnt seem worth it. JL

Anybody going to participate in the national boycott that is going to go on Monday for the illegal aliens or the rallys. I'm NOT. I dont like being around that many people breaking the law I just cant figure why they are going to boycott the economy that is giving them work. I was told by many in construction that there has been a lot of immigrants not working this past week out of fear of a immigrtion sweep. I heard they might do it at some of the smaller rallies or take photos of them and get them later, we'll see I'm getting a little sick of seeing some of them holding the American flag upside down

Gear driven will it pull from a tank, like belt drive ?

Water Cannon sells pressure pro & Don P, somewhere around $1300-1500 4gpm 3500 belt good machines

Hey I finally got my 1st restaurant cleaning job. I clean dumpster pad and concrete entrances every month and the do all the other concrete walkways every 4 months. I got the job but I need to right it up in a contact Anybody have a template or sample contract I could use for this kind of work thanks Somebody had sent me one once but i must of deleted it Yay, I finally got one JL

Price wise the Pressure Pro series have the best prices and they are good machines. Don P sells them, also the ones Larry mentioned are all good machines. Theres a ton to pick from for sure pick a couple and ask out here about it and best place for prices JL

Whats a good paint remover ? I need it to spray or brush on concrete & brick pavers, its some over spray & some drips , Oil & Latex paint I really dont have time to order anyting its for a job Wed night. I'll have to get it from Lowes or HD. Im thinking a heavy gel stripper any suggestions Thanks

Jeff and Lance, while the work is gratifying, I would drop wood care tommorrow if I could. It's sometimes a thankless niche and it is not the highest profiting one you could pick. The big decks if you could get them all the time I'm sure are worth it. Its just a very hard sell around here. I used to get about 1 out of 10 I bid, it was just to time consuming just bidding the wood. When I 1st started out I liked the wood and I'm sure I would of even got better at doing it, but I just got disgusted bidding them and wasting the gas and my time. Plus its so hard to schedule with rain & all the other hassles. I admire you guys that do such nice wood work, it just drives me nuts now. Keep the pics coming all you wood guys I love to see your work!! As for Jarrods dilemma. Im all for keeping a customer happy, Ive gone back and touched up things on jobs, but sometimes you just cant make someone happy and you have to say see ya

I think you should go out there and do the whole deck again for free and a free house wash, for all the aggravation you caused this poor women, maybe a free massage & pedicure, then drown the B----. I guess you cant drown her then you wont get a referal Hey Jarrod what are you going to say to her? have a good one JL
