Mixing for wood and composite decks

I was pretty close. But I couldn’t remember. Haha.
I think I was close enough on the name to atleast get a ride in that 69 Mack though …

If you make the trip you may drive it in the parade. Then I’ll have to introduce you to the owner of Valley truck parts and you can see His collection.

I don’t think putting your cleaner on the market would be a replacement for us. The customer base most of us target aren’t going to clean anything on their own even if it’s easy. Many don’t even mow their own lawn. There might be a few lost customers but I don’t think it would be enough to make a difference. I think the ones who would it buy are already the type who are already trying to clean their own anyways. You would just be giving them another product to choose from. You might be able to test it in a certain market and see if deck washing jobs drop off at all. Just don’t test it in mine…lol…Actually, it would bother me at all. It would take quite a few years to get accurate numbers though.

I respect your outlook on it though.

Yes I suppose my outlook on customer base is a little skewed because I literally live in the most conservative county in the country(so abc claims). When I run into around here and he is more blue-collar millionaires then anywhere else and if they think they can do it on their own you bet your ■■■ they will. We will have to see what happens when my season comes to an end I won’t rule it out. I really appreciate your input though its nice to gather perspectives from other professionals and is precisely one of the reasons I am here.

I’d like that. Thank ya

In my area when rich guys try and do something on their own they end up having to call and have it fixed.

This was at the house of a doctor. You would think he’d be smart enough to say to himself “this isn’t working” a lot sooner than what he did.

He calls me wanting an estimate. He just says he needs his deck and patio cleaned.

I walk up and the first thing I see is this. It’s a Snap-On so it has to be good!

You would’ve thought he would’ve stopped after the deck. Nope, he had the same thing all over the back patio. I tried posting pictures but says they are too large. I’ll compress them later and throw them on. He even did the same thing to the hot tub cover…lol

He’s a gynecologist so was probably just walking around with the trigger pulled daydreaming.

Lol I’ve seen it a ton of times on concrete. It’s always the 0° nozzle…

I just don’t get it. I can see them hitting a small area with squiggly lines and then realizing it’s not working but some walk around for an hour and go all over their whole property doing it. They don’t even work is a small section…lol…Even when I was a in my low 20’s and got my first pressure washer I blasted away with the yellow tip plenty of times when I probably shouldn’t have but pretty much figured the red tip wasn’t good for much unless I wanted my wife mad at me. The second you try the red tip on concrete you know it would just take way too long.
