Retired NHS Nurse WORRIED About Getting RIPPED OFF Again By Bad Tradesmen! We Restored Her Faith!

This was a job that we were contacted for, by the neighbour of this customer. We had worked for the neighbour previously, having cleaned some organic growth from their brickwork, and had also having cleaned and re-sanded their driveway.
This customer was a reclusive, retired NHS nurse that had been severely let down in the past, and over charged for work that wasn't completed on her patio by some rogue traders. Because of that experience, she was extremely worried and apprehensive about contacting any trades people for any type of work, that might need carrying out around her home. The only reason we were invited to quote for this job, was because her neighbour had assured her that they believed that we would carry out a good job for a reasonable price, and above all were trustworthy.
After explaining the cleaning process in detail for both the patio and driveway, and providing a quote. We left the quote with the customer so she could think it over. The following day we were contacted, and the quote was accepted. She also asked if we could clean the organic growth from her walls at some point, as she was aware that we had cleaned her neighbours brickwork, and they were very pleased with the results.
When our customer saw the end results of the clean, she was over the moon. She admitted that since her previous negative experience with bad tradesmen, and even though her neighbour had recommended us, and that she liked me, she still had a niggling bit of doubt in her mind that the job might not be completed properly, and to a high standard. She said she'll always be a little suspicious from now on, and will only employ people that have been recommended to her, but in her own words, she said "you've gone quite far in restoring my faith" and "there are trades people out there that are trust worthy, and will do a good job" which was a lovely thing to be told, and was an amazing compliment.
Hope you enjoy the video, Nick.

This is my biggest fear as a tradesman. The risk of disappointing others. I take immense pride in my work and expect nothing but the best from myself at all times. Most of the time tho it is me saying how disappointed I am in my own work with the customers reassuring me that it looks great. Thanks for returning this person's faith and I will follow you on the same journey
She has such a lovely yard, now it's Gorgeous! I love her plants and flower pots. I've had work done on my home, and know what it's like to have inferior work done. It's so nice you could restore her faith that not everyone out there is trying to rip her off. Congrats on a job well done!!!!

You did an outstanding job restoring this beautiful garden back to its former glory. I'm sure this lady will love what you have done. Now she can sit outside and admire her beautiful garden. I'm glad you explain things as you go along because I kept looking at the bricks thinking it still had the white lichen on them and then you pointed out they were white stones. It made me feel so much better. 😊

Great job buddy to your normal high standards. It's difficult when you have to overcome the fears and suspicions of a customer that's previously been ripped off, but by the looks of things you managed that with no issues owing to the quality of work. Excellent!! 👍
Makes her already lovely yard even more beautiful ❤
Beautiful brick in the front yard. I don't recall ever seeing one like them. The paving stones in the mud were set at the correct height but the ones in the grass had sunk making them hard to keep clean as they are lower than the grass. No place for the water to run. Really nice work!

the small stepping pavers that you’re taking about are actually recessed on purpose. it’s a landscaping design and some customers like the way it blends, they’re usually edged so the grass doesn’t touch the pavers but in this case that hasn’t been done. yes they are a pain to pressure wash.
What a lovely property Nick. You just made the place pop again after cleaning all those paved areas. Nice work again. Really enjoyable video.
A very beautiful job,I think people are very happy.
The lady really does have a lovely garden and patio. I can see myself relaxing there with some aged cheese and a glass of wine. 😊
Lovely job done! I'm sure you were extra careful with this customer to make sure you were doing your best work.

Great job. Edging around those individual patio blocks would have made the rinse off easier as the rinse water could roll off the side down into the ground. Too bad the pots didn’t get washed down as well. Tough cleaning job- happy you helped this woman out. 😊

What a cute property and you made look like a small King's castle. As i keep watching landscaping videos, i really think there should be a college just for landscaping. That made such a big difference, i mean, the details were there , but needed to be uncovered in a good way. this is the first spring i have ever watched such videos. amazing work done.

Great job. I actually like the exposed stone from the 30 yrs of weathering.
That beat at 16 minutes with the clicking, really reminds me of a Berner song. Chill beat though.
I can just imagine Sid from Partridge coming over to steam clean those flower pots. Always trying to find something to clean with his new toy. It always amazes me how white those stones really are. When you first show them, they look like grey concrete pavers that are so common in America.
Great job!

This is one of my favorite jobs I've seen you do. It has a little of everything I so enjoy watching 👀 in these videos. You filmed it wonderfully to where it was long enough to really enjoy watching as well. The only thing missing here is watching you scoop up grime hehe but other than that this video I've watched a few times now. Thats how much I like it 🤗 did you ever film coming back to soft wash her algae covered walls as you mentioned you booked your client for? I didn't see an update or anything? Plz lmk if you did and I missed it somehow 🤗 wonderful video my friend. Please keep them longer like this.... we the viewers like them when they're longer and we get to see more. You hit the nail on the head with this one for sure. See you in the next one.

Hi Megan, so glad you enjoy watching this video. No i'm afraid they she didn't get back in touch to have her walls cleaned, so unfortunately nothing to show. Thanks for the great comment as always 🥰
She seems to have a drainage problem. Heavy rain will wash the dirt back on the pavement again. Still, he did a really good job.
What would you recommend for foaming our driveway and flags that have green on them and the usual dirt? I have a foam cannon but not sure what sort of solution lift the dirt the best

Hey man wondering why you do the treatment after you use the surface cleaner, I always pre treat and then use the surface cleaner after 10-15 minutes. Wondering if there is a advantage to the way you do it great job on this job man
Finally, a pressure washer with some good music taste. lol

You did a great job! The garden stone work is very pretty. However, In a year or so the front and back patio and the stone path will be dirty again because the grass and flower beds are higher than these ares. Dirt from flower beds and grass will cover them up again.
GoPros don't like cold temps so maybe that was the issue? Great results, looks like new. I like the pattern on the front drive with white stones.
