Do a spot check first, the soy gel can darken the Pavers
-
I agree with all of the above, my minimum is 150 dollars
Unless your friend or family
Guy that was funny with the Dog House remark !!!
Also almost 100 % of my customers own there own power
Washers I have to move them while I clean. They know it's not easy work and your price I'm sure was well within there budget when they called. Stand your ground and walk away like you did. Good Job

Thanks Chappy

Ok so the spray system is 500 dollars, you buy the sand in a home depot type of place?
How would you price this? Measure the square footage and figure the amount of seal you would need
I would imagine and what do you charge for labor ? It looks simple and not to labor intensive as far looking at the video
-
Nice website. Do you use sand on all your projects? I noticed on the seal n lock website that I believe it was with the wet look
You don't need sand.
What's the cost for all the equipment? I have customers asking me to seal there Pavers, so this is an area i am interested In
-
Would you use the sprayer for a stripper as well
Or you would just down stream a stripper.
Deciding wether to buy one or not
-
Good info thanks for the rescue

No I dont own a roof pump and the job is tomorrow
I will buy a pump up at home depot and bring along my M-5 xjet as a backup plan
If the above mentioned gets me no where is it possible to dip a hard bristled brush in a 5er mixed with percarb
And scrub in on the deck?
(I wil be prepared better for my next deck for sure)
-
Cleaning my first deck Tuesday and I am going to use percarbonate
Can I downstream this with good results?
X-jet it on?
A pump up would take wayyy to long. This is just a cleaning and no staining followed
Thank you

Thank you

How would you guys like it if you called Bob or Russ or ACR and asked for detailed answers about there product
And they spend time with you on the phone and answer every question you have. You place your order after being satisfied that your buying the right product, the product comes in and there is a 5% service charge for answering your questions. Time is money for everyone
But estimates are part of the business IMO

I actually have a sealer and was going to do my own concrete but don't want to screw it up, I understand if done incorrectly it could have a milky look
-
I had two customers this week ask me about it
But i have no experience in doing it
And my gut tells me they would not bite on the xtra
Cost

Thanks David

Guy. Do you ever wear a respirator or construction type mask?

When you say use the proper ppe what is the proper ppe?

Ok thank you

A guy on my block just had his whole yard done In Pavers and there is a lot of dust.
Can new Pavers be power washed? I don't think it's a good idea to use a surface cleaner right?
Can chemicals be used?
-
Bleach will kill the mold and mildew is correct, but you need a soap to release the carbons and grime that has been sitting
On the exterior of the house. The soap will also allow the bleach to stay on the exterior for a longer dwell time to do it's job correctly. A good detergent will have advantages needed when rinsing also, no streak windows, dirt will be removed easier with less pressure. Soap added to the bleach is like Robin teaming up with Batman. Ya get it?

Nice job Doug, application week house wash and a scrub brush light rinse off? Or other method?
-
I ave a 325 gallon water tank on a double axel trailer, the 325 is really over kill
The 225 gallon tank your thinking of is plenty for your machine IMOA.
I think I read somewhere that's I gallon of water is 8 pounds, don't quote me on that though.
If your putting this in the back of your pick up you had better figure out your maximum weight for your truck.
Also you really can get away without the tank and just use the customers faucet for water supply
Unless you plan on doing jobs with no water supply. It's not worth the punishment your vehicle will take
Not to mention the extra gas needed to pull the weight

We there is your answer why we don't seal when done washing. In your last paragraph you mention to be careful there are some good and garbage products
What's the good products?
You Also mention every situation is different and needs to be evaluated as such. How would a newbie know what applies to what if you don't have the knowledge?
Also what type of equipment is needed from soup to nuts?
What are the pit falls we can run into being a novice?
