Well, I started watching, thinking to myself "Oh no, not another patio cleaning shambles, I know how to use a Karcher!" And then the magic happened. Just goes to show what a difference sheer effort and skill can make to a finished job. Justin, you convinced me mate, that was definitely NOT a patio cleaning shambles - more a work of art mate. What a difference!

Very frustrating when all we care about is doing a really good job but that extra detail thought and attention costs .You get what you pay for with us and if people want cheap let em carry on . Difficult times followed by what thats the big question. Not a lot of confidence to spend money out there at the moment. 43% materials have gone up on average since 2021 .Its difficult now to win work as its difficult for people to afford the work its natural for people to look at cheaper options. For us we set out who we are we have an identity of a trusted company that do top work and that cant change John. Good luck pal speak again soon mate for a catch up . Justin 👍

Excellent result - in your video you mention a 2:1 mix of water and sodium hypochlorite and using SH neat - but what strength SH does that refer to? General retail stuff is around 5% - Trade stuff obviously greater than that but ranging 10 to 12% ish.

Fantastic work as always buddy. Is that stuff you put on the slabs basically brick acid? And I’d love to be able to use that flow point but I know I’d mess up a whole patio so going to stick to the much slower traditional sand and cement method 😅

@wotviewer

3 ай бұрын

the whole point of using both hypo (bleach) and slurry based pointing is you must rinse off afterwards with copious amounts of water. Run off is therefore both essential and inevitable. You'll notice that the (keen gardener) householder removed certain plants before they started, presumably to eliminate any risk to them The only other safeguard you can use is to thoroughly soak the borders so any run off will be entering totally saturated ground where it will become so dilute it is much less likely to do any lasting damage.

Great result, but two questions if I may: 1) won't the hypochlorite kill the grass as well as cleaning off the mould spots? 2) The flowpoint seems to leave a very rough finish with that approach - isn't that just going to accumulate dirt, moss, mould? Looks as if a brickie's jointing trowel could fix that, but not sure at what stage. I have a large buff concrete patio that needs completely repointing and wondering whether to try flowpoint over the traditional soak, let slabs dry in sun, brush in dry mortar mix, point method.

@brickrightbuildinglandscaping

3 ай бұрын

You have to be careful using chemicals obviously. I didn't create any damage to plants and grass and ive never found hypo do that although it can be harmful to green growth but thats the chance you and the customer take if you want your patio cleaned i guess. All i will say about flowpoint is in my opinion its at this time the best product to use to point or re point indian sandstone. Its very strong and durable and comes in different types and colour so may be look up flowpoint smooth for your requirements 👍

Great job guys. How long did you leave the flow point to firm up before jet washing it off

@brickrightbuildinglandscaping

2 ай бұрын

Think it was aroumd 25 mins but its weather dependent on how long it takes to set 👍

interesting you did a final hypo after doing the pointing. Wonder what chemical reaction that produces with a cement based pointing?

@brickrightbuildinglandscaping

Flowpoint can leave a haze in some areas of the paving. Sometimes we use a weak dilution to clean this off to give those perfect results we look for .It has no immediate or lasting effects on the Flowpoint. 👍
