And all this time I thought I had a social anxiety disorder :) What a great article! I believe I just might have to print that one for the wall. Celeste

Behr's 10 year warranty
Celeste replied to Palmetto Home and Deck's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
That is usually what we're doing while we're charging more, disclaiming and not warrantying :) That has resulted in our doing more decks "our" way - I mean, geez, they called us as pros. -
Need help on ugly deck...

Congrats David :) The experience you took away from that job will be invaluable! Celeste -
Behr's 10 year warranty

I'm actually betting it's 10 years against graying but nothing else. -

We charge more for "their" stain & we get a disclaimer and offer NO warranty. -
I'm thinking on that amount of space, you're going to be on the really high side for and H&C job. I could do a custom overlay for that :) For the H&C staining on a job that size, I might be inclined to bid this one on time and materials. Celeste

Ditto on the 12 year old - who got her first kiss Monday while Dad was out of town. There will be hell to pay very soon I fear! -

My bid made customer faint
Celeste replied to Coastal Painter's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
I must've missed something in earlier posting - somehow I read that decks weren't being measured or calculated, more ballparked. We don't measure each spindle but we don't have a canned formula for all rail systems - that was what I was getting at :) Guess that's what I get for "glossing" over posties! One must carefully read all words :lgbugeyes -

We have a formula for standard handrails, those with sweep-throughs, extra wood, less wood. For something like this though - would you not do the math? -

Celeste replied to Coastal Painter's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
We definitely calculate every square inch of wood to be touched - it's what we get paid for. Besides, I can't imagine anything worse than to not have the proper amount of material available to complete the job. If you don't measure accurately, the only way to insure that is keep tons of inventory. Celeste -

Cumaru Deck
Celeste replied to Proclean's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
That is gorgeous workmanship - both builder and care :) Nice one again Paul! Celeste -
Probably what is being referred to is running the bleach through the pump itself. If you downstream or x-jet your chems, your pump will last eons longer. Celeste

my daughter!!!!!! Graduated from USAF BMT this weekend - I can't even get into all the wonderful things that her TI's said about her - makes me all weepy! We are so proud of Ashlie. She's off to Tech school now :) Take a look at one of America's finest young people!

Celeste replied to Coastal Painter's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Definitely feeling your pain Mark. We were underbid on a 900 sq ft deck by a good $1100 recently. The other guy was at .50 for a strip/stain, elevated with screens OUTSIDE the rail system. You just gotta keep on keeping on - hold the line. The ones that appreciate your craft will make it worthwhile :) Celeste -
Yes, we found a site full of our photos this morning also. How does one copywrite a site that they don't own the content of?

Chris, Hickory isn't too far of a drive from us......if you'd ever like to do a ride along with us on brick cleaning, give a yell :) Roger has it down to an art and most who have ever gone with us are loving the bricks now $$ Celeste
