"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.... "

Pressure washing is a great way to take care of built-up messes much more easily and quickly than manual scrubbing. Pressure washing can save you energy, time, and even money by getting rid of contaminants that can lead to damage to your home. It can also increase curb appeal if you’re getting ready to make a home sale.
Yes. You can pressure wash pavers. However, you risk damaging them if you use too much pressure or get too close. Use a PSI of 1,500 and spray the water at least 24 inches away from the surface.
When comparing installation costs, asphalt is often less expensive upfront than concrete. Asphalt prices typically range from $7 to $15 per square foot, while concrete can range from $3 to $18 per square foot. However, long-term costs should also be considered. Concrete driveways generally last longer (up to twice as long) and require less maintenance, which can make them more affordable over their lifespan. While asphalt has a lower installation cost and is easier to repair, it requires more frequent maintenance, such as sealing, which can add up over time. Therefore, while concrete is more expensive initially, its durability may offset the cost in the long run.
Not pressure washing your driveway can lead to several consequences that affect both its appearance and its structural integrity over time:
Reduced Curb Appeal: A dirty driveway covered in grime, stains, and mildew detracts from your home's overall appearance.
Safety Hazards: The buildup of algae, moss, and mildew creates slippery surfaces. When wet, it increases the risk of slips and falls for you, your family, and visitors.
Structural Damage: Dirt, debris, and organic growth can trap moisture against the driveway's surface. In colder climates, this moisture can freeze and thaw, leading to cracks and deterioration of the concrete or asphalt.
Yes, you can pressure wash with just water. The force of the water alone is often enough to remove dirt, grime, and debris from many surfaces. However, for tougher stains like grease, mildew, or algae, adding a detergent or cleaning solution can enhance the cleaning power. Be sure to use the appropriate nozzle and pressure settings for the surface to achieve the best results without causing damage.
