"American Safe Wash couldn’t do the job right after 4 attempts and the owner lied and wrote derogatory comments about me in previous social media which is why I am posting every where I can.... I hired them in 2018 (Invoice 3313) and after a full day of washing my home my well was dry. When I called to let them know they took absolutely no responsibility and said “you should have told us you had a well and we would have brought a water truck.” This snarky response was enough for me to decide to never use them again. Especially since the sales person, Carrie, literally tripped over my well when providing the estimate. And, by the way, since they drained it, I needed to replace my expansion tank and well pump. Now in 2020, without my knowledge, a painting contractor hired American Safe Wash to clean the house and fence before paint. It was a disaster. Drips were everywhere. If an employee left the front of the house with such obvious drips, it goes to show that the owner did not train, support, or supervise them properly. When I complained after their 2nd failed attempt, they sent their salesman out to “explain how soft wash worked.” In preparation for this visit, I broke out my electric washer and cleaned a section of the fence to show what it was supposed to look like. The salesman quickly conceded and sent the crew back for a 3rd time and I watched the crew apply the cleaner from the top down which is the wrong way to do it (supposed to apply cleaner from bottom and work upward) and explains why there are so many drip marks. I called the owner to complain and he agreed they were supposed to apply cleaner from the bottom up and he sent the same, apparently untrained crew back. So, on their 4th visit, they arrived and as they saw all of the misses and drips, they looked dumbfounded, and were virtually incommunicative. I simply expressed my dissatisfaction and in no way was I every derogatory as the owner suggested in other posts. The owner later admitted that they had mental disabilities but yet he sends them out to work and talk with customers who are clearly frustrated because of their lack of training, support, and supervision. Remember, this was the 4th time they were at my home. And, to top it off, during this 4th visit they became irritated, acted unprofessionally, and did not complete the job. There is no reason to believe that they can complete the job properly even after a 5th attempt. When I called the owner to complain, he was nice at first but soon became enraged and turned the situation and blamed me for not being “nice” to his employee, calling me a “hater” over the phone. I don’t think I have ever had such a heated conversation with an owner of a company. And, to show you what kind of person the owner is, when I wrote a negative review on another web site, the owner lied about our phone conversation making childlike, inaccurate, and derogatory comments about me trying to make me look like a bad guy. For the record, if the owner does not CEASE AND DESIST these actions, I will pursue legal action against his company and him personally. The fact that this owner lied and manipulated the situation is exactly why I wrote this negative review. It is not about the quality of the job, things happen, but his unethical behavior needs to be called out. To prove how unethical this company is, I found a review on another site where one of their sales people Cyr P. wrote a 5 star review pretending to be a customer. His review said; “Don’t have your home pressure washed, have it Safe Washed. Low pressure soft wash cleaning with unbelievable results. Made my siding look brand new!” On or around June of 2020, the owner responded “Thank you for your business!”. On February 7, 2020, the same person Cyr P. sent me an email trying to sell their services. I have the screen shots of this review along with his email to prove it. I believe this is fraud and I and have contacted the CT attorney general."

Stucco questions, answered by experts
Late fall is generally the best time of year for installing stucco siding. We don’t recommend hiring a stucco pro to apply this feature when the temperatures are below freezing, so it’s best to avoid applying stucco siding to your home during the winter. However, it’s safe to apply in hot and colder temperatures, so any other time of year is suitable. The spring and summer are the busiest times of year for stucco siding professionals, so you could save money by doing the work in the off-season: the late fall.
Installing stucco over brick can add longevity and durability to your siding while protecting it from deterioration due to exposure to the elements. However, stucco over brick does have a few downsides. You’ll spend more time and money on maintenance and repairs, and your siding may be more susceptible to cracking.
You can apply stucco to wood by wrapping it with grade D waterproof paper, installing trim accessories such as metal lath, control joints, weep screeds, casing beads, and expansion joints, and applying the stucco in three layers. You’ll need a scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat, all applied with a trowel and screeded with a darby or straight edge. Each should cure for two days before you apply the next one.
Stucco is durable, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance, making it a popular choice for exterior finishes.
Due to application and cure times between coats, stuccoing a house takes between 10 and 14 days. Professionals may be able to wrap up projects on smaller homes in 7 to 10 days, while stuccoing large, multi-level homes can take more than two weeks. For the standard three-coat stucco system, six days are dedicated solely to stucco drying timelines, which are necessary after each coat.
