"We had purchased a package from A&D after their first use of Angie's List. They were so overwhelmed with customers that it took awhile for A&D to come out to our house to perform the service. The package was a full house exterior window cleaning for $89.00. I explained that 4 of our windows were very high as we have a vaulted ceiling, and that 2 of those windows are as high as a third floor window because they are on the back of the house which is above the walk- out finished basement.
The owner said that he would send out his crew to do all of the windows except for the high ones, as he wanted to do those, and he couldn't come out on that day.
My husband was home when they came, and hadn't been involved in all my communications with A&D. The company cleaned all the windows they said they would, and did a fabulous job. The windows were sparkling. Even in the afternoon glare they were spotless. However, the crew left a bill for an additional $ 90.00 to clean the rest of the windows. Prior to the company coming, there was no mention of additional charges. I was very disappointed in that, and did not have the rest of the windows cleaned, as I felt that A&D didn't live up to the original agreement. I realize that our windows are not all easily accessible, but in the conversations I had with the owner, we spoke several times of the window configuration, and he never mentioned that there would be extra charges.

"It went great, Gabe and his team were affordable and willing to work with us on cost. They arrived promptly when they said they would and were very responsive to us. Gabe constantly checked in with us to make sure we were happy with the service. They added missing shingles and did other little things to improve the house without us asking them to do so or quoting it. When the job was complete it was very well done and we were very satisfied. We would recommend Gabe and his team to anyone looking to have their home painted."

"I never heard back from the service provider. Weeks later, Angie's List notified me that he had sent me a message via the message center. I wish he would have called me, and I encourage him to change his method of contact to suit his customers."

"Edson was timely in response to our request, polite, asked relevant questions and promptly produced an estimate. We ultimately did not select his company to do the work, but he was a finalist and his quote was competitive.

Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

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.

The disadvantages of sandblasting are noise, mess, and risk. Sandblasters are louder than chainsaws and spread debris on the ground and through the air. Let your neighbors know that you're sandblasting so they can prepare. Sandblasting can damage your property if not done properly, so thoroughly vet any pros you talk to before hiring.

Because these two systems have different applications, there is no definitive answer to which is better. When working with sturdy materials, sandblasting is cheaper and faster, but more delicate projects require soda blasting. Before choosing either option, consider your specific needs, particularly your ultimate goal (cleaning, removing rust, prepping for painting, etc.), the material, and your budget.

Sanding and pressure washing serve different purposes in deck maintenance, so one is not necessarily better than the other. Pressure washing is ideal for annual cleaning to remove dirt, grime, mold, and mildew. Sanding is a deeper restoration method used to smooth rough surfaces, remove an old finish, and prepare the wood for a new coat of stain or paint. The ideal process for refinishing a deck is to first clean it (with a power washer), then sand it, and finally apply the new stain or finish. While cleaning should be done annually, sanding and staining are typically needed only every one to three years.
