Price/Sq. Ft.
seymore replied to svp07's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
I wish i could get those higher prices like you guys up on the east coast and other parts of the country. I guess being in a higher coast of living so the price fits the economy? A lot of my jobs are customer referals so i don't have to haggle on price. Depending on the dificulty of the job to be cleaned is how i base my cleaning charge.Staining I do pretty good at .60 sqft. for decks here in Tx. I've also found out being good at what you do justifies the bill at the end of the day. Everett is right i've seen a few companies go under and sell out in no time.Seeing them drive up to a job site in a Hummer had to have something to do with it also. -

Steve I wouldn't mix bleach with anything but water then rinse well but it should remove the mildew.

Thanks Alan Travis It's a parrafinic oil base really heavy penetrating and easy to use. Here is another view with a great shot of the area that i have 50 or more decks and docks in the area.Mostly weekend homes for these people. -

Paint & primer removal
seymore posted a question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Here is a PT deck that i treated 4 or 5 yrs ago.The homeowner let the painters paint the deck along with her house over my oil base stain.Looked like it was primed also which took even longer to remove.Took me 8 hrs to clean along with a lot of stripper.I removed enough of the old paint to where i shoudln't have to sand even in the cracks -
