"Part of our home is an 1850 stone farmhouse. The basement walls, two of which are built into a hill, were beginning to crumble and water was beginning to seep in. Edgar didn't just fix the problem, they exceeded our wildest imagination of what those walls could look like. We've been through some serious rain since and they are perfectly dry and look amazing! If the house falls today those two walls will still be standing! Very prompt service, reasonable priced and super easy to work with. We'll be hiring them again for some future stone wall repair upstairs."
"Excellent service. Brian and Kevin arrived on time did the job as promised. Very friendly and did what they said they would do. Will use them again. Excellent"
"The cost of the masonry service was $1500. The cost of service for the concrete patio work was $3000. They did a nice job. There were no issues. I would use them again in the future, but I haven't been able to get in touch with them since then. When he was doing the work for me, he was great and very responsive. But he has kind of fallen off the radar; I don't know if he's still in business. He does what he says he is going to do when he is going to do it."
"4th time I've used Roswell Gutter Cleaning Service. Very happy with their performance. They even cleaned all the twigs and debris off my roof brought down by recent storms. I highly recommend them."
"The service went really well. He was on time, actually ahead of schedule. We were very pleased with the service. I would definitely recommend him. His work was good."
"Bob was very informative and took the time to explain pricing and the work he would be completing on our home. Friendly and personable, we are most appreciative. Job looks great, could immediately notice a difference of our siding and shutters. Very pleased and would highly recommend his services."
Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts
Sandblasting is a common method for removing paint. It works great if the underlying material is tough. This is because you can then use more abrasive sandblast materials, making the paint removal process much faster and less expensive. If you plan on removing many layers of paint on smooth surfaces, you’ll need to be more careful about which materials you choose to use to sandblast.
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.
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.
DIY is possible, but professional services ensure even removal, safety compliance, and proper cleanup.
You can concrete can be done when it’s wet or dry. However, it’s safer when wet, as harmful dust and chemicals are present. Sanding it when dry is faster, but you’ll agitate more dust and chemicals, meaning you’ll need to be more careful.
