Bit more of an update video today - needed to check in and make sure you're still here :D back to normal from now, I'll male sure to keep the camera on for the absolute terrible days if they continue xD see you soon!
You do you buddy!
We live and learn.
We fail, we learn, we overcome.
You'll learn this when you watch your child start to walk.
Step by step mate, you'll get there!!
You can also female sure. We're not judging here.
Don't worry Sid all will be well 😜
😂 fat thumbs
Welcome back mate, fingers crossed for smoother times ❤
Sid we all understand, you are running a succesful business, you are bound to load up on times and this will make you stronger. Dont worry about us we ARE still here. Just look at what you have achieved in the last 12 months, an expansion to your family and your company, so use your time and focus on what is important to you and your family.
Your not letting me down with no videos. You have a massive back library I can watch. You are human after all Sid. Your mental health and wellbeing is more important.
I was getting concerned with the absence, good to see you back
Sid you are such a good guy with a fantastic conscience but I don’t like to see you so stressed. So don’t think about us and focus on the job’s and the family till you have caught your breath again. We will not let you down. We are here and we understand you. Take care ❤
We are all still here, I’m sure there are others like me who have been patiently waiting, understanding that life gets in the way, who clicked on this vid as soon as they seen you had posted! Your content is great, it’s worth the wait. Shame about Elias, but maybe it’ll be the making of him. Enjoy your Christmas time time off, if anyone deserves it, it’s YOU!
When it rains…..it freaking pours 😢
Just Take Care of Work and Family. No worries with us. Anxiety is nnno fun.
thank you and too right - time to catch a break now I think!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning Nice to see you Sid and sorry to hear about all the trouble. As a fellow anxiety sufferer, I've got to learn how to reduce stress levels, so that I can be functional, productive and safe. Key word is organization. It's all on you mate, so it's better to stay half an hour longer after your work for the day is done, checking things out, doing maintenance, washing up of the van and the machines, preparing things for the next day, making sure you are ready to go and there are no issues. Just keep it calm and organized, under control, without stressing. That's why mistakes and bad luck happens. Make sure you find few good lads, adult and reliable. I've learned it's about working smarter, not harder. Good workers, well kept vans and machines, good organization - you'll be stress free and safe. Jumping roofs with all that stress is dangerous, mate. Your babies need you safe. Take it easy, delegate duties, find someone who will deal with video editing for you. It's achievable. Good luck!
“You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have NOT been found wanting”. Hang in there Sid and know that you are appreciated and that thousand of viewers cheer you on....
A knight's tale reference? Or is it from something else?
Yes, that is a (slightly modified) line in the movie you reference. However, I do not know if the quote predates the movie... @@Randomfandom24
My all-time favorite film!
You're right Sid, when it rains, it pours, but also remember, after a bad storm, the rainbows are all the brighter! Glad to hear you're cracking on and can't wait to see how the other jobs are going.
Merry Christmas to you and yours, I hope the holidays are the best ever for you!
Hello Sid, saw the photo of the kids. You have been intentionally trying bigger and harder jobs for a while. This one needed doing. A topic that came up this last week was that anytime you start a new category, you are going to have "a learning curve". No matter how hard you research and talk to people, there are "questions you don't know to ask" and "situations you can't guess". Enjoying the work, the remarkable scaffolding. Thank you for explanations and wishing you well. Glad the wind seemed to cut back and the drone shots were nice. Thank you to your mechanics who have been working overtime trying to keep you on the road. It is o.k. not to film in the middle of crisis and to take breaks from crisis, to be able to turn off the "overstress reaction".
You will laugh looking back - all of those experiences provide huge learning and wisdom, which you’re clearly observing. Don’t obsess with video because you need to remember there are 180K followers of a very young business and this video has been up for two days but has been viewed 36,000 times. Chillax - these viewers are stronger than you think . . .
Oh my gosh Sid do not worry about us!! We knew you had a full plate especially with a new little one at home !! God has blessed you with a growing business, a beautiful family, a wonderful YT channel . Just take care of you and enjoy your time off. Relax, Recharge and Happy Holidays!!!😀❄☃🎄
Sid, you put yourself under so much stress; relax, work will get done. The faults in your vans and machinery are not your fault. As long as the problems are addressed then it’s okay. Take care of your health, anxiety is a bad thing, it leads into worse things. Blessings to you and yours from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤😊😊😊😊
I was just downloading Power Wash Simulator and thought "huh, wonder where Sid's been recently" - trippy!
Sid your mental well-being is more important than you know then your family, and then your business. If you’re in a bad mood, there’s no reason to compound those feelings by filming . Please take care of yourself first your family and your business. I’m sorry to hear that you in countering difficult times with the breakdown of your machines and dealing with employee issues. Hope these matters clear up for you to make your life less hectic and stressful. Please do not worry about getting videos out for us. Your focus needs to be on the more important things. Please take care of yourself Sid.
I had wondered what happened to you! I hope you have a Good Christmas. Shame about Elias, as you said hopefully it tunes up the kid. All the best to you and your family!
Shit happens and usually comes in bucketfuls! Good to see you back Sid, you were missed. Pity that Cameron could not work for you full time, he's such a great guy. As for YT videos, no pressure as you, your family & business comes first. Take care.
Great Video Bud 👍👍Nice to see you guys back doing videos again and sharing your work with us 👍👍Your health and well-being comes first Bud 👍👍
So glad you’re back. Missed you.
I found it ironic that such intentionally soothing music was in the background of what looks like everything but a soothing job experience. Your work seems incredibly stressful and potentially hazardous to you and your crew but the results are always so lovely to see. I hope at least some of your clients fully appreciate that you are not just operating an oversize carwash.
Sending positive vibes from the USA! Praying things get better soon!
Plz no apologies are needed nor explanations. I am so thankful that you are well and healthy. Continue to lift you and your family up in prayers. Merry Christmas and a Blissful 2024.
Sid, you are the man!! I agree with another comment made here, don't worry about the filming. If you get a video out, we will watch it. We all love you and your videos, but we hate to see you under so much pressure...its not good for your health. I love that you treat every job like you are cleaning a palace and your focus is so right on. You are all about cracking on with little waffling. You are amazing.
To grow in your business the most dificult thing is always to find a good team . Always, however finish the year stress out for me is always starting the new one in peace and good luck, so you may have a wonderful 2024
Cheers for the update. I hope its onwards and upwards from hereon in. No worries about video frequency, you're running a teal business and need to make enough money to cover costs and wages. Concentrate on that, and we'll look forward to the next vidro whenever it arrives. You're doing great. 👍
Sid, if it seems like your business is stressful, consider my grandad, who opened a shop in 1920, had to move to other premises soon after, had three children, ten years later was the Great Depression, then WW2 with meat rationing (he owned a Butcher's shop), after the war, food regulations were increased almost every year (though shop was always clean🙂), every time he wanted to upgrade he had to ask the lease owner, even down to replacing the bridge over the brook that ran at the back of the property.
Despite it all he left a successful business to his sons, which operated until they too retired.
Business is never easy, but that's why the rewards are, hopefully, great.
I think you are, like my grandfather, customer focused, and the greatest reward is knowing your customer has been provided with a great service. Every time your customers come home, they will appreciate your work.
We have recently had the whole roof replaced, and it's still a joy to look up and see it. I imagine customers will feel the same pride looking at their clean roofs.
Great to see you back Sid ! As lots of people have already said, we'll always be here for you waiting, regardless of how long the videos take. We're all appreciative of you taking the time to film for us all. Congratulations on the new kiddie !! 👍
Life happens. Take care and welcome back.
Welcome back Sid! Love to you and your family. Praying that things go better for you 🙏
thank you :)
Good to see & hear that you're doing ok!
Everyone knows that you work extremely hard on your jobs, with all the troubles with the business, the vans and family life. Anxiety is really difficult at times, the Christmas Break will give you a break to relax with your family. Stay strong Sid! We're all going to be here with you!
It's good to c u back. You have went into survivor mode. Just breathe take a moment take care of your family first and yourself. Try to calm down find a way to relax. The videos are great but you take care of yourself first. We'll support what you need to do. Wishing you more calmer days ahead.
I wondered where you’d gone. Sorry about all the problems, all while you’re having broken nights with the new baby no doubt. Enjoy your Christmas break.
Just glad to see you back, Sid! Crack on :)
Awe Sid. You’re such a caring person but priority is always you and your business. You’ll get your mojo back and bang out some cracking videos ❤
I cleaned commercial property for a long time. New and renovated buildings. When things go wrong, they really suck. People don't show. Equipment breaks. Vehicles won't start. And let's not forget, we get sick. But, it will get better, much much better. Please, you can vent to us anytime. We understand. 😊 A very Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.
I feel your pain dude! I live with my mum and she is unable to do any physically demanding work so I've been mowing lawns and gardening. The house is a flipping mess as well. I'm completely overwhelmed and just slowly climbing this steep mountain, hoping to find a break.
We've also had issues with my old 1990s Holden Barina and now it's starting to get incredibly difficult and expensive to repair, so we scrapped it 😢
I am g;ad to hear and see that you are still cleaning, I so enjoy watching and that you and your growing family are well. That your Dad and Brother are there with you. Keep a good thought in your head and life will sort itself out.
Sid don’t worry about the videos, these things happen. You’re smashing it mate and hopefully you’ve turned a corner now with the issues you’ve had. Hope all is well with the family!
We all understand things happen to the best plans. Take care of yourself and your family. New videos in the new year is just fine. Happy holidays to you and your family!
Onwards and upwards,hang in there Sid. Sometimes life gets tough here’s hoping that you have come out the other side
Hey Sid, you have a new baby boy, and he comes first so I think you are trying to be chill at home with him so your stress is going to come out somewhere. Thank goodness no one was hurt with the explosion of your pump. Be kind to yourself too. There are only so many hours in the day. I was worried about the baby being sick so I didn’t want to put my foot in and contact you and ask. I am seriously relieved that your family is ok. My sister and I have not being having a good time. My sister had her car written off thankfully she wasn’t in It. Then our mother died. It’s ok she’s was 96 so it was inevitable. However as we were planning the funeral and that night a large tree branch fell out and smashed onto her roof. I’m thankful that she is ok. Last year in two weeks in September my dog died, my partner broke his collar bone and my car caught fire. Pardon me but shit happens. I think you have handled it very well so be proud of yourself. You only want the best for people as I do and that’s what counts. Thank you. May you please take care and stay safe. Louisa. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩
It's never OK to lose a loved one, even at 96. People are saying they cried seeing Bernard Cribbins in Doctor Who and I was the same. He was part of my childhood and I'm 67!
I visited family graves yesterday and saw graves for two 15 year old boys, and a 1 day old baby. Grief doesn't ease with age.
My grandfather was 99 years, 11 months when he died, I was gutted
I’m sorry it’s been tough. Maybe you have to reorganize your business and not stretch yourself thin. Lots of luck. You don’t have to apologize 🎄
Welcome back Sid! Been waiting for a new video from you! How’s River doing 😁
hes awesome :D super cute
Hope all your bad days and equipment problems are behind you. Wishing you a wonderful holiday with your beautiful family and All the Best for the New Year!!!
Yay! I’m so glad to see you’re back. I am sorry to hear of all your troubles and hope they all get sorted. Enjoy your new baby and family. Take care!
Life tried to knock you down, but it seems like you got back up and told life it hits like a b!tch 😂
hahaha iron chin
Glad you and your family are okay. I don’t think I’ve ever commented before but been watching your videos for about 6 months now and got worried when it went quiet. Phew!
Happy Christmas to you and yours.
Sid, you take care of your family and business first. We’re not going anywhere. You always do your best and we care about you.
Watching from Big D, Dallas Texas.
So appreciate your work ethic. I enjoy seeing a young man create and grow his business the way you have.
Gods blessings over you, your family and the business. 💛
With all that you are going through, it is always best to vent and let out what you are feeling, whether that be in your videos or talk therapy. Holding it all back will only make it worse - this is coming from experience. Please take care of yourself, hope the new year will be brighter.
Glad you're back - was worried!
I was thinking about you all week lmao.
Glad you're okay Sid!
Or well, relatively okay
❤ nice to see you back!! Positive vibes!!
Bloody hell Sid, what a whirlwind....family and health is what matters ...but money helps all that doesn't it...sending all my best wishes that next year is the one for you x
Look after yourself Sid, you and your family come first always. I know you want to get things caught up before Christmas but make sure you're safe doing it too. Things will get better again! Keep at it you're awesome 🙂
Dude you're one of the coolest people ever! Just keep doing your thang and take care of your wonderful family sir!
Still here watching for you. Don't worry just take care of you and your family and business first.Take care.
Keep your head up mate, I personally run my own jet washing business on a part time basis and if you ever need a hand even a day or 2 to catch up you can give us a shout, I'm sure there is lots of us with machines and kits to help you out.
Glad your ok bro
wow what a time you've had lol. jeeze man. you know what they say, whatever doesnt kill you, makes you stronger!
best of luck to Elias too, hope he realises his potential and bounces back
Been waiting for a new vid
Start off the new year with a bang but not THAT sort of a bang (again)! Take care of yourself!
Tbh sid I've been coming and going from your channel checking back an was hoping baby was OK. As a mum the worst thing runs through my head. Obviously not good what's happened but at least the family good sid and that's the main thing as a parent
Sorry to hear youve had a rough time of it Sid. May 2024 be a year of growth and plenty of opportunities for you. 😂
Glad your OK fingers crossed no more issues allways happens in time for Xmas unfortunately.
So many changes in your life at one time, no wonder you've got extra anxiety. Take the time you need, untangle the knots and come back to a normal schedule when it's the right time for you.
Congratulations on the new baby! :D What a blessing in the stress! :D
Sid breathe it’s awful when you get such a run of bad luck. So sorry to hear all the things going wrong. We have to be grateful for all the good things and forget the bad. Love your videos but look after yourself and your family. Xxx
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh, Sid, please take care of yourself and do not let yourself get overwhelmed. Your business is your livelihood for your whole family! I am so glad to hear that your family is doing great and that this will be something to brush off and start fresh next year!
Hey Sid, big hug and love for the family. Just a subscriber, here we've never met but I want you to know I'm rooting for you and don't worry about us, we'll be here. Do what you need to and we'll be here for it when you're back.
Hi Sid, yes we are still here, was just worried about you, keep looking after yourself we will still be here. Take care of you and your family xx
Your human after all Sid, hope your feeling better now and keep up the AWESOME work. Your health is your wealth
These things happen mate. It's just your turn right now. Good luck to Elias, he'll figure it out. He's just a kid. Hopefully he'll pop back up on the videos one day. You never know what's around the corner. Hang in there Sid, you got this mate.
Never apologise for anxiety mate. Crap happens and sometimes it’s hard to find a mental coping strategy that works. Overthinking is something I’m guilty of and it can suck the day down. Often helps to put perspective into the equation. Some places in the world have real life issues, war, famine etc. Over here we’re pretty lucky compared to them. Dead easy to say though. Not so easy to put into practice. Same with being a boss, never easy when staffing issues present amidst other catastrophes. I heard quite a lot of positives in your discussion. Problem solving, reacting to losing the kid etc. Its when things go wrong that defines a good business IMO.
Good to have u back Sid.
Merry Christmas and have a wonderful time off with your lovely family. As for the videos, whatever you get around to putting up for us is all good. Family and work come first.
Good to have you back lad. Offers still there if you tou need a hand when your in the shire 🤙
God bless you and yours, Sid. Sounds like you are being tested. Hoping you learn everything that these trials are teaching you, and that you have a blessed Christmas with your sweet family. 🎄✝️
Good to have you back Sid :)
Sometimes being human is just a bitch. I have watched you from the begining of your journey and I am still impressed with you and your work ethic. Be proud of all you have achieved.
The joys of working by myself on small jobs making good money no hassle it’s the life
Good luck Sid. Life can be such a struggle, I know. Sad to hear about Llias. I hope he comes back in the future.
Breathe!
of we care about you brad the channel your family all of it there is something unexplainably entertaining and captivating about your videos and how far you have come! hope river and the girls are well!
Glad to see you back dude just take it day by day don't feel you have to put a video out just look after yourself and the videos will follow. Could you do a video showing the best budget pressure washer to buy i currently use the base karcher washer with a flat surface cleaner for my concrete driveway it does an alright job but would be interested in what you would advise using and what chemicals to get the best result also i get green mould/algae on my path in the winter what would be best to treat it with thanks in advance.
So glad to see you back. Really missed you guys.
Love your work. Business first, UA-cam when and if you have time. Us lot will still be here.🎉
Hey Sid we all have good and bad days i am sorry to hear of all your problems wondering where you were , the work you do is amazing carry on doing what you and chin up we are all here and support you Sid and congrats on the birth of your baby 👨👩👦 🎉🎈🎊 ! And a Merry Christmas to you all ! 👍😁🥂🍺⛄☃🎄🎄🎄🎉
Nice to see you back Sid, life throws sh** at you sometimes, when you are off for the Christmas break get the machines serviced and checked , they are just like a human they cant run for ever without a change..ie oil change etc
Don't worry about us, take care of you and your family! We all enjoy watching you immensely, but we all know that life happens! I for one am fine with waiting for things to calm down for you and would rather you be safe and happy. You have a wonderful family that needs you first and foremost. Much love to you all from the US and my kids and I will wait for your next video! Oh, and congrats to you and the family for the new baby!
Sorry to hear about Elias. I was really hoping that he got it together. Brad no pressure! You just need to drive and become the roof cleaning god. lol
We all now it’s purity hectic at times but were still here for you
The fact you manage to make any videos whilst running a successful business, managing the guys, spending time with your family and having a new baby is astonishing! Do not worry about breaks in entertaining us - the real work is hard, and on top of lack of sleep you’ve had a bad run with machines etc. You must prioritise yourself and your wellbeing as well as your family. Have a good break over Christmas and try to rest 💝
When its almost 3am and the childish part of my brain kicks in with "Its Sidney, Bradley and Dadly"...
I've been enjoying watching you grow your business. It also makes me appreciate my boss a little more as a person. I respect that you are out there with your crew getting dirty and rained on. Watch out for burnout. I am coming to realize that this is why I never want to be the boss of my own business. Burnout is a big risk. It's a stressful endeavour. Don't beat yourself up. One of the things that comes with burnout is that you have to put things aside or you start making little mistakes. That's when you have to start pacing yourself.
Glad to have you back Sid. Definitely missed your videos, but life is like that to us all. As you said, fire is no joke. I don't know the rules+regs in the UK, but maybe have a fire extinguisher system installed in the vans. Check out the systems that are used in race cars and talk to the resellers/installers to make sure you size it right for your vans.
Been there, Sid, with a “gotta get it done today” business. Just keep on making it happen.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻BTW, loved your children in the short video; really sweet👍🏻
Take time too breathe! Have a great holiday and enjoy the new babyl
I've been a long time Subscriber & watcher and I love your video's... But it's Ultra-rare for me to comment on things, even content that I love! Yet I felt I had to comment on this one & buy you a couple of beers mate :)
Anxiety at the best of times is not good... most people will experience it, to a degree, at some point in their lives... but very few people realize the sliding scale of it. It can become crippling at extremes... So please don't stress over YT content!
I've said this to another of my fav channels, CEE; when they've had to skip videos and felt the need to apologize, for similar reasons: Business pressures...
We love your content, but your business is more important than us! If the business wasn't there, there wouldn't be video opportunities... You've enough on your plate without fretting about UA-cam at this moment in time!
I for one am not going anywhere... Please look after yourself, look after your growing family... and try to keep your spirits up mate!
Don't forget to enjoy your family. You and the misses and your your first born have a new member in the family. Make some good memories. Be kind to yourself. Your world has changed at home, too.
