    I've been hooked on your videos for well over a year now and I have to say your transformation from a keen guy with a "cheap" pressure washer into what you are now is staggering! It's not just what you do, it's how you do it and the pride you take in doing a first rate job that shines through. More power to your elbow!

      @@philtucker1224 if i can remember it well. most of it he just bought with cash. only the cars and probably the pumps are on a loan.
      Sid has the odd situation that in a way he has two separate incomes.
      1. his actual job.
      2. the money he gets from his UA-cam videos.
      plus the better the kit he has the more work he and Kevin can do.
      he does need to keep busy but that is more because work or no work. Sid has to both pay Kevin and keep his own family happy.

    This is why I watch British content, excellent attention to detail and a well developed, self-deprecating sense of humor. Sid expects the best of himself, and he upholds his high standards week after week, job after job. He works to please himself, and his standards are often higher than his client's expectations, which is the secret to being both successful and personal content contentment. It is always satisfying to watch Sid's posts...well, except for when Sid takes nerve wracking chances when trying to reach the last clump of moss on a very difficult roof.

    Chuckled when you said you couldn't see a thing working the black asphalt with black sludge water. Not a surprise, you actually did quite well and it looked much better. Nice your anti-wet shoes are still doing well. Thank you for mentioning to go slow on asphalt and to use circular or figure-8 motions. Good little pump you got. Remember that the earlier section of playground cleaned-up very well. (That is the first time I've seen someone try to blow feathers...they wouldn't fit a "herdable" category.) Have really liked the heat work but that was very kind of you to show the difference between cold and hot water effectiveness while washing there. That play area turned-out well. Good observation in noticing odd things growing in the roof gutters and down spouts across the street. That was a nice completion of areas at the school. The yard cleanup must have cheered the owners to no end. Safe to walk on, bright and setting off the yard and home. You've taught us to clear drains, where possible. (Perhaps major drain cleaning is something you can add at times in when doing a job or a friend to call?) You prove your point every time with your sound protocol. Street cleanup was noticeably neat.

    In the states the rule is to have your landscape slope away from the house rather than towards it. That way if you have to have some sort of drain and it plugs up then you will not have the water next to the house and flowing into the house or soaking into the ground next to the foundation which can cause flooding into a basement or settling of the foundation which can cause cracks in the interior and exterior walls.

    Good tip for homeowners, about the drains. You don't have to be that terribly handy to take the screens off a drain, scoop out the sand and yuck into a bucket, and rinse with the hose. Think of the cost and trouble you are saving taking care of this on a warm day, instead of waiting untill it's pissing down rain, freezing cold, and the water is flooding in those lovely patio doors!

    Cracking job buddy! Might not be 100% as you say but personally I think it's better than the 80% you pegged it at - there's many who would not have had the knowledge to go in neat from the start and definitely not have the perseverance to do it 5 times by hand to achieve the result you did! Hat's off mate! 👏👏

    Tarmac jobs can be deceptive, as you say its hard to see where we missed a little bit here and there. Blocked drains can be a nightmare glad you managed in the end
