"Amruss offered to come the next day - which was the Thanksgiving holiday ! They came and performed the service at 8 am, and got the job done. Invoice sent by email immediately. Their payment web page to pay with my credit card was easy and clear."
"Noe showed up immediately, no questions asked and did service at reasonable price, cleaned gutters, and the downspouts completely at a time in which we had overflowing gutters and water in the basement. He was communicative, clean, and I look forward to long relationship with him and his company."
"This was my first time using Angie's List. I'm was very pleased with the entire process, from the initial contact the Haris, Inc. through the completion of the work. Ibro contacted me and set up a day/time to do the installation, he showed up on time and did a great job. I'm happy to leave a positive review. I will definitely use Haris, Inc. in the future."
"We arranged for them to perform the service while we were out of town. I checked the gutters when I returned and the work had been completed and the gutters were clear. They left a paid invoice receipt on my door. "
"This was a third project with Pavercare and once again they didn't disappoint. It happened in 2 separate work orders as once I saw what a great job they did, I wanted them to finish it all. As an attorney, I am a half-decent landscaper :D (though nothing like these guys!). I had put in paver bullets and rock myself when we moved into our home over 15 years ago. With time, they sank and no amount of grass trimming made them stand out like they once had. I had also wanted to extend paver bullets around the sidewalk they put in, but didn't have the time. Finally, I Once again, Pavercare to the rescue!!! The day work began, I was happy to see Gaspar arrive as I knew the work would be done far and beyond anything I'd get from another provider. He is very easy to work with and takes direction well. I just told him what I was looking for and he went right to it! Once again, bushes were tied up to prevent damage, weeds were removed, no extra charge... work went as well as expected. Neighbors were actually coming by after they left asking who did the work. I was glad to tell them! They accidentally damaged a couple of our sprinkler heads in the process. Gaspar was actually able to fix one of them on his own... this guy is very handy! When I let TC know about the other, he told me to have our regular sprinkler guy come out and just take it off the bill! Talk about customer service! After seeing what they did, I had to have them come out to raise what I had done and expand it. Also, I hadn't got around to getting my mulching done. We have 3/4s of an acre lot with a mulch line that follows our fence. It is usually a 3 day job for me by myself and all I am doing is hauling and spreading mulch. When I mentioned this to TC, he said they could help there as well! They really made my life quite simple. Again, our comes Gaspar and his crew again. They had the bullets raised and extended with rock added in a couple hours, for what would have taken me 2 days of work. They then started on the mulch... and again, went above the call of duty. They cut in a new mulch line to make the mulch look nicer! Took them coming back from an extra day, but the results are stunning! I couldn't have done it better myself THE AFTER STORY... I noticed that they had forgot to do my garden area (they ran out of mulch) and they didn't have enough rock to finish off my upper planter... texted TC on Saturday... on Monday morning they were out and finished everything, including weed removal again, in less than 2 hours... There is just no other way to say it... use Pavercare... they are the best!!!"
Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts
DIY is possible, but professional services ensure even removal, safety compliance, and proper cleanup.
Sandblasting refers to the process of cleaning a surface using compressed air and aggregate. Soda blasting is the gentlest type of this method, but it differs from sandblasting that uses mineral or other aggregate, since sodium bicarbonate breaks apart more easily than other forms of blast media and, therefore, cannot be reused.
There are two ways sandblasting could be dangerous: improper use of the equipment so that the stream touches your skin, and air particles created during the sandblasting process. While the first is easier to avoid and fairly obvious, the second has the potential to be more serious and is much more difficult to understand. This is why you should always hire a pro to sandblast, as they understand the dangers associated with the process. If proper safety measures are taken, then sandblasting is rarely dangerous.
Soda-blasting systems are slightly more expensive than sandblasting systems. To soda blast, you’ll need to spend a few hundred dollars for a blast hose and nozzle, a compressed air supply, a blast generator, a moisture decontamination system, and sodium bicarbonate media, a recurring cost because the powder is not reusable. To start with sandblasting, you will need to spend upwards of $30 for a blast pot, a blast gun, an air compressor, and sandblasting media, many of which are recyclable—further reducing the cost. The total cost for either will depend on the size of the system.
Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on the surface area and complexity.
