@jasoncummings853 waterproofs were from the people that done my uniform lad but you can get them anywhere they are pretty popular although not cheap and the pressure washer is a Pro20X from @spinaclean

@jasoncummings853 waterproof overalls mate they are about £80 don’t think they’ve got a brand name as such. I do about 4 jobs a week on average and lasted a good 18 months so far
Was enjoying the "shiney clean" roof you did. Very good on spotting the patio and that you have the experience and equipment to deal with the "lack of drainage" problem. Looks to be a neatly kept yard and will look attractive with the paving caught up. At 7:59, I actually laughed. You started on the top of the small wall and the burst of color appeared unexpectedly. That wall area is actually very pretty in design and at 8:37, backed with the clean area behind it, extra nice. The color changes here are tend to be unexpected but certainly well picked originally. 10:00. That was a very enjoyable improvement, must have tickled the owner. They had nice color accents used, as the grape woodwork and blue pots. The paving is a treasure.
It's a nice garden space that was sad to see it so grimy before, you really helped boost its image and made it a much more relaxing space to rest in on a good day, hopefully your hard work was appreciated and if I was the owner I'd be looking into fixing the drainage issue to keep it looking brighter, great work as always.
Since you have so much rain in the UK I wonder why drainage is not considered a priority when constructing patios and driveways ? I live in a much dryer climate and I wish we had even a portion of the rain you get, everything looks so lush and green.
I think it’s more shoddy builders installing patios after the initial build and not accounting for large amounts on rain. There was a drain were the water pooled but think it was blocked over the years
Yeah, sadly the concept of water vacs isn't something that most people would think of - especially as it sounds like she was all set to try cleaning it herself until reality of drainage set in. I didn't even realise that they were a thing until I was about 2 years into my job as a kitchen porter (about 26 years old) when the hotel bought one to help us dry off the floors faster when mopping during the day when its most active.
That patio was such a surprise! Feel bad for owner with the bad pooling areas…we have some here too. Turned out beautiful, especially with your wet/dry vac. 👏👏👏💯💯👏👏👏
IMPRESSIVE!!! I'm amazed at the difference just water under pressure can make -- the white substance was an anti-fungal cleaner? MORE questions: How long will the finished patio retain its natural appearance before the "fungus among us" begins its relentless takeover of the earth and civilization as we know it? Is this a once-a-year job or will you need to return more often to keep it looking its best? Thanks for giving back to the community with "free clean friday!"
Hey! So the white foam is basically bleach and it kills everything Organic. You can expect 3-4 years before it’s really dirty but we do recommend keeping it clean with a yearly clean.
@@KirbsideCleaning The questions never stop: How do you keep the bleach from damaging the decorative plants? Even though you're careful about overspray won't the runoff get into the root systems? Or does the water dilute the bleach, making it safe for use around vegetation yet still deadly on mold and lichens?
@@krisaaron5771 the water will dilute the run off and you aren’t actually using as much as you think. But you spray the plants with water before hand and it helps protect them
Hello there, trying to work out the set up you are using in the end of your spray gun, is it a 2600 gun with a short q adaptor and a variable jet nozzle...
Good question but me feet don’t get wet or sweat really they might be a little damp sometimes but never really had an issue - the occasional athletes foot a couple of times 🤷🏼♂️
@@KirbsideCleaning Yeah, but that can happen just with safety shoes. I tend to look at work clothes in terms of how comfortable it looks to work in every day. I'll be honest, it looks like you're also cold and wet a great deal of the time, even if you're used to it.
@@Sheilanagig definitely more so in the winter but in the summer you get sweaty but it’s a differently kind of wet. Saying that in the winter once you get moving you warm up pretty quick
