"We're very happy and relieved to have the old deck gone, in short time and for a reasonable price. Phil and 2 men showed up just as planned. We had talked beforehand via Angie's messaging about details. Confirmed again after their arrival. The job took about 3 hours on site. The guys jumped right in and worked efficiently, thoughtfully, and carefully. There was no collateral damage during the removal of the 200 square foot deck, in spite of a concrete patio just below. The old pressure-treated wood couldn't stand up to NM sun and the former residents' dogs?and it had become a great spider habitat and leaf/trash catcher. The old wood couldn't be burned, had too many screws to salvage without doubling the costs, so Phil and his crew cut it up into pallet-sized chunks - too heavy to recycle into pallets sadly. They hauled it all to the landfill. Phil answered my questions about what had gone wrong with the original install (someone else's), and was very generous with his knowledge, and didn't shy away from telling me what I needed next. One minor problem: there was lots of dirt, junk, etc. under the old deck that I had specifically asked to be bagged. Trying to be extra helpful, they put it directly into my compost bins - junk included.

"Mariano was very professional and did an excellent job. He was hired for the concrete slab for the foundation for our home and we asked him to return to do the drywall on a separate building we built. Both projects turned out excellent and we plan on using this company for any future projects."

"I called SMRT mid-week, scheduled an appointment for weekend consultation, I wasn't sure if my cast iron tub could be converted into a walk in shower. SMRT made several suggestions in type of shower base, such as concrete/tile base with vinyl liner or cultured marble pan, or vinyl acrylic shower pan with 4" curb, I chose the vinyl acrylic pan, The shower valves needed to be replaced, I was presented with a book with different styles of valves I picked one that met my budget and was same style as some that cost much more. I was also presented with tile samples, and grout colors, all were good quality tile. Colors for paint was presented (many colors) After choosing materials and estimate presented, I entered into contract, and scheduled work to start the following week. Prior to any demo work, drop cloths were placed in the traffic areas, and the area where work was to be performed was draped with plastic for dust control. The tub and existing tile was removed as well as the wall sheathing, A new shower valve was installed and tested The shower pan was installed with a new drain Wall sheathing was installed (mold resistant/water resistant) Tile was installed and grouted Clean-up, and trash removal The professionalism and workmanship was the best I have ever experienced !!!! Great Job.... "
You don't technically need to seal your driveway after pressure washing, but doing so will help keep your driveway clean for longer. The best driveway sealer depends on the type of driveway you have. To seal asphalt, consider an asphalt emulsion sealer, fast-drying sealer, or latex acrylic sealer. Concrete driveways commonly use acrylic sealers or penetrating sealers.
No. In spite of its identical chemical makeup, sodium bicarbonate manufactured for blasting purposes has a particular type and size of particles that differs from grocery store baking soda. In addition, this method would not be cost effective because you would need several boxes of baking soda to equal one blast-sized bag of medium.
The best plan for removing rust stains from concrete is to progressively move from weaker cleaners to heavy-duty acids. Move from dish soap to vinegar to oxalic acid to muriatic acid, stopping whenever the stain is sufficiently removed. This process ensures that only the safest possible methods are used, rather than jumping right into a powerful cleaner that may be effective but unsafe and unnecessary
Jet washing can wash away weeds without bending or kneeling to pull them. However, the results will likely be fleeting because the weeds will return unless you use a stronger method that takes them out at the root. Use a jet washer for short-term weed removal, but use a stronger method if you want to get rid of weeds for good.
Pressure washers are better for residential use. Power washers are best suited for cleaning very hard surfaces (like concrete and cement) and removing tough stains or tacked-on grime. Meanwhile, pressure washers have more uses. For example, you can use one to deep clean a wooden fence, spray down your vinyl siding, or clear out your gutters.
