Need some help. Do not get the opportunity to do many brick buildings and got a call about some white stains on a brick summer home. Did a search on this network and kinda figured it was effloressence. Went and checked it out and what it turned out to be was the white shutters over time had run...
Got a call today from a tree surgeon stating that while doing a sub-contrtact job from a landscaper he just got finished grinding a stump with his new stump grinder and while steering it on a concrete area he blew a hydraulic line. After shutting the machine off he then walked the machine over...

Doing a job the other day and the burner was working as it usually is but I will have hot water for a short period of time and then it would go cold. Then I would get hot water for a short amount of time and then it would go cold. Any basic things that I can look for that could rectify this...
Mike,
That is the what the guy told me, I am not 100% sure of the area. But he did state it was off of exit 8 on the turnpike. The reason he called me was because of the 609 area code. good Luck.

I got a phone call from a gentleman by the name of Mark (I think)regarding about 900 feet of sidewalk that he needs cleaned, it is new construction in a strip mall. It is too far for me to travel, so if anyone is interested call Del Sano Construction at (908) 688-8891. Not sure of the contact...
Thanks all for the quick replies. I did advise her of the UV issues and the damage to the deck, but like the topic said particular customer. She stated several times over and over how she did not like the color of her neighbors decks. The neighbors decks were cleaned and sealed last year. But...
Did an estimate today for an elderly woman that live on a back bay in a stucco type house that is three years old. House has 3 decks that are in good condition but are gray for the most part. Owner wants to maintain this "weathered" look. Owner wants the decks cleaned and sealed and still...
Thanks for the info. But here is my next problem, The guy I talked stated that he just wanted it power washed, no cleaner no brightener. Just power washed. This does not bother me too much considering that the boardwalk/deck is located at a yacht club on the bay. Will the ironwood become...
Need help! Have to give an estimate on a 10' x 800' boardwalk style deck at a yacht club. Man that contacted me stated that this "african wood" is extremely hard, only has to or should be cleaned every 12 to 15 years, a nail cannot be driven into it a hole has to ve\\be drilled an a steel peg...
I realize the danger and safety precautions that need to be taken for mixing this chemical in its pure pellet state. That is why I am leaning against purchasing it from a supplier. But, I still feel the need to investigate it further because of cost purposes. If someone mixes this chemical on a...
Zing,
For some of the tips you are looking for use the search found at the top of the page. I did a cedar house a couple of weeks ago. Made easy by this BB. Like Dan said use a stripper (sodium hydroxide) let dwell. This stuff is dangerous so use carefully. I protected myself...
Thanks for the help! Did the job with sodium hydroxide and oxalic acid. Followed the advice of past posts and this post. Started figuring while I was doing the deck and looking around. House was done partially with redwood siding and fence was also redwood. Deck came out great and owner saw deck...
He is probably going to be a tough sell considering that he has CWF in stock at his store. I e-mailed ready seal to see what kind of sales pitch that I could give this guy regarding thier redwood product. Waiting for a reply, any information I could use to change this guys mind and lead him...
Thanks, I kind of figured but wanted to make sure. This client owns a department store in the area and wants to supply all of my material. Fine whatever makes him happy. Seems dead set in his ways. He wants to seal this redwood deck with CWF. After research I will advise him to use a seal that...
Stupid question, but you know the only stupid question is the one that is not asked. I have to clean a redwood deck, can I treat it the same way I would a cedar deck, cleaner , brightener and so forth?
Check the search option at the top of the page. JR Wood put one out that I have used. I beleive it is under the marketing topic. All the information you will probably need and straight to the point.
If you have any problems contact me and I will send it to you.
