    Oh and by the way there is no regular house wash for masonry. Chemical companys are out there. This is where you go for the right product for the right job. I am not trying to sound mean. but in the masonry field this is not vinyl and alum. masonry is made to last. we treat it this way. Also...

    Because you will need to pressure wash the house, the chemical for the efflo will not work, in fact make it worse, This is a difficult job to get done right. If you have done these kind before. But it can be done. Take the job in steps, restore the masonry first, then get the efflo.

    Efflo! Can be cleaned of of any brick if it is done right. How long has it been there, has made it threw a season, hot to cold, new construction, from precast, under windows, on the brick, heavey or light efflo. chemicals will clean just about all efflo, if you know what you are attacking, and...

    Anyone recognize this Cat?

    Alittle tip for you guys who do not know. But when honda puts a white tank on a engine of anykind it is on the high end. Or commerical grade. Which means the unit was probably costly when new. 150.00 sounds like a good deal to me.

    Cover from the rain

    This costs alittle more but a 4wheeler cover with the built in tie downs works well. I have an enclosed trailer, and when we had a open trailer these worked well, and they didnot blow away. hope it helps.

If you get paid to work, you are consider a pro. low baller or not. The real diffrance is in the qualilty...

    My new rig

    Nice setup. Watch out for those straps on the tank. Change them out when you can. Those metal bands are alittle costly. But the will hold that tank down. Chemicals and water sifting will weaken those rachet straps. And you can make a baffle for your tank so will not surge on you so much. It will...

    Removing mortar tags-third story building

    tags A 30 ft pole is not the answer, If you are on a construction site, and a JLG or other lift is there, maybe use it. You can clean brick at this distance I guess, and the job will look like crap. wand marks, residue left behind, not an even looking building, your goal working with a masonry...
