Wow those are some wonderful lessons could not agree with you guys more. As far far guarantees I do not offer because As Rod implied there are those customers who will never be satisfied no matter how hard you try to please them. I always vouch to do the best job possible and yield the best results. I wish every one a prosperous 2019. Happy Spraying Mike

I am curious to learn what lessons you learned in 2018 and what things you would do differently to increase your business output. And how would you rate 2018 a success or not so much. Mike Movila

I received a call today from a potential customer who informed me that he used Super Deck oil base stain to stain his deck from Sherwin Williams. He told me he power washed the deck and stained it with Super Deck and it turned black. After that he asked some one to strip the deck and he stained it again with the same product. I asked the potential customer how the striping was done. He told me it was stripped then it was brighten with oxilic acid. After the second staining was done the deck turn black again. The only thought that comes to mind would be that the wood moisture was too high or striping was improper. I do not have any picutures yet as I have not been to see to the deck yet. Any thought Rod or any one else would be appreciated. Thank you in advance. MIke Movila

There is definitely a lot information you put out there. One piece of advice I can give you is patience. Just starting out you take the work you can get. Do quality work be ethical and follow through with all your promises and good things will follow. As you become more experienced and people tell other people about your services you will get more business. Develop networks of people that need cleaning done Realestate agents management groups that manage properties those should be the people you should be targeting I started slow ten years ago now I work for people that manage one hundred seventy commercial properties and I have plenty of work and turn some away Things do not take place overnights again patience is virtue Best of luck to you

I was just thinking the other day and asking myself how long I wanted to be cleaning since I am approaching 50. I would like to hear from those folks who are a lot older than me and see their thoughts

I am restoring a cedar pool deck for a customer previously they used TWP and were not happy due to clorine water damaging the finish in less than three months any recommendations for a stain that would be more durable would be welcomed. I am thinking most likely a salad stain thank you Mike

My advise to you is not to take on this job. Looks like you would be spending a long time trying to remove that coat.

I an working with a composite deck that has been one of the first generation of Trex. The deck has faided considerably so my question is has anyone used any products to bring back the original color of decking successfully. What product have you used successfully. Thank you in advance.

Thank you Rod I was going to do that however I did not know if any extra measures should be adopted appreciated

I have been requested to clean a composite deck that has composite floor and the railing is made of wood I cleaned the wood part and now I want neutralize the deck with acid. Correct if I am wrong my understanding is that acid is not meant to touch the composite, therefore composite should be protected

Yes Sir F13 Gutter Butter they all yield different results based on the gutters manufacturers and the age of the gutters. You have to be careful with the paint and surface and keep it wet all times
