Jake, at the beginning, it looked like you were trying to clean the Haunted Mansion. As a pool cleaner, for black algae we would scrub it with a wire brush at first, hoping to remove the head. If there were a lot of black spots, we'd drain the pool, do an acid wash with Muriatic Acid, let it sizzle for a bit, scrub it with a wire brush if needed, rinse and then apply Soda Ash - or baking soda to neutralize the acid. Black Algae is the worst! You did an incredible job here. Oh yeah, Orange.

You did a stellar job considering the condition of the stonework. Lots of repairs and repointing needed there with old hard scape and you got it cleaner than I thought you could at the outset. Well done I always enjoy watching you because you always take so much care of the customers property. Thank you and God Bless❤

Orange! 🍊 I love the orange brick wall what we call in Germany rote Backstein Wand. A lot of houses and official buildings are made of that colorful brick work here in Berlin and in the surrounding areas of Brandenburg. Even yellow bricks were used, but the red ones are my favorite and even more common. I remember the inner yard between the front house and the stables where my grandparents lived were plastered with those yellow bricks. I think they'd never been cleaned during the time my grandparents lived there in a rented apartment on second floor. Thanks for cleaning and bringing the colors back to life. 👍

How interesting Manuela! It is so wonderful that each different geography has such unique ways of doing things. We do not have a mass of different colours here so it is nice to hear about the buildings in Germany. I have visited once, to Hamburg for a few days. Unfortunately no more exploration since then!

I appreciate your concerns over the durability of some of the materials being cleaned. I find that using the turbo to rinse down AFTER the SH application has a disproportionately positive effect than solely rinsing off the SH. I tend to start off on a 5:1 ratio with the Xjet, then a 2.5:1, if blackspot remains (following a thorough agitation), then, ultimately, neat. Very, very few blackspot infestations survive that regime. However, I understand your concerns over the ability of the stone to take that kind of treatment. Very frustrating for the perfectionist! Love the videos though!

@@diamondexteriorcleaning I don't tend to pre-treat, but it couldn't hurt. I find that after any ratio of SH treatment the blackspot appears weakened. Still strong enough to cling on if washed with a flat surface cleaner or fan lance, but not strong enough to cling on when faced with the turbo. I run my business as a part-time pension top-up, so I am not in a hurry to squeeze in 3 jobs a day like some of the big boys. Consequently, I can take my time with multiple SH applications & agitations. I haven't been defeated to date.

Orange ... is also a color you find a lot in the buildings in the Rhineland and Westphalia. And I believe it's the city of Hannover that has a stunning church built completely of red brick. In the case of this video, the contrast between those brick walls and the color of the patio stones makes it quite beautiful. I'm glad the new owners decided to have it all cleaned professionally.

Well, I am not an expert, but I don’t think there is much that you could have done differently. Reapplying the hypo multiple times maybe? But perhaps you did and that’s the footage that you lost. But really, don’t beat yourself up about it. It’s a huge improvement! 👍 It should have been cleaned YEARS ago given that the black spots were basically engrained into the stone. I hope they will maintain it and get regular cleaning from now on. Keep up the amazing work! 🍊💎🍀

This was a massive job and you can be very proud of the outcome. Those orange brick walls are really beautiful, but my favourite are those wonderful old balustrades. Incredible transformation from black grime to a brilliant white! Regarding those black spots on fragile surfaces. Can you adjust the temperature of the water? Maybe it could help using hot water while pressure washing with lower pressure to protect those surfaces.

I helped a friend clean his walkway around the old house he bought, it had a 3 level patio, planter posts and red brick everywhere (knee walls) with the stone tops. So much damage to the mortar between the surface stone and brickwork was exposed after we cleaned. The exposure to the weather just did its thing over time. Bricks we could reset but the mortar would look different so I told him we should reset the loose and tuck point the whole thing. After the treatments and the tuck-point it looked like it was just installed. You are doing great work.

Hi Jake, "Orange you glad I didn't say Banana !!" I thought the job came out well. Black Spot and Soft Stone, are not really good bedfellows, no? I know that Sir Nick uses different machines and techniques to get around those issues. He's got access to a bevy of different tools. I thought the grand balustrade came out quite nicely. That's like getting into the nitty gritty with a power nozzle up close and personal. Hmmm, I don't know, if starting with a Hypo treatment to begin with, before you start blasting, or a higher percentage mix, or the ever so useful, scrub brush with the hypo to start the process, like I said. The balustrade is another beast entirely, right? The kind of tooth brush on the tile floor kind of intricacy !! Nice job, in any case.

100% you should of pre treated with hypo and worked it in with a stiff brush and probably upped the concentration to get a head start…don’t mean to be condescending but watching a channel like partridge exterior cleaning might help you a lot, he’s always giving tips and advice that may help you with your business 👍

The customer obviously loves their garden. I couldn’t see a weed anywhere and the landscaping, especially the orange brick walls, is gorgeous.

how many hours did you estimate for this job. It looks like it could have been divided up into a couple of days. how many gallons of product did this take? Great job as usual, its so satisfying to see all that grime stripped away.

It would be interesting to put up a drone for your before and after shots.

Ooh I would love a drone! A little bit spendy ££ for me at the moment. Maybe a birthday present to myself?! :D

How do you determine how much pressure to use on the bricks and the stonework? Great job as usual.

Sorry to ask this on a day you lost footage, but I am curious about the time it takes to film your cleaning, vs just doing the cleaning. That is, how much extra time does it take to think of and plan shots, move the camera's around, keep them charged, etc. I can't say anything about how you can power wash better, except maybe ORANGE. ;)

No problem at all! It definitely makes the job a LOT longer. I am by no means a cinematic expert but do try to plan out my angles and shots to make the cleaning transitions slightly less jarring. I would say it doubles the cleaning time for me, maybe even more! :O Thank you 😊🍊

@@diamondexteriorcleaning Thank you! You do have smooth transitions between shots, and a variety of angles that make the video interesting and pleasant to watch. (I wouldn't be here otherwise.") I enjoy the "selfie" intros, breaks and outros... it gives a sense of being there working with you.

I use pure bleach for mold. I just pressure wash with a 110psi machine and then spray with bleach or pure bleach, depending how bad it is. great job!

Lovely property, lovely job. It’s aged stonework so the owners shouldn’t expect it to look spanking new but clean, which it did. Good job.

I know Universal Sealants do a product for Black Spot removal, I have seen it used before with good effect. Obviously, more products bring more cost. IMO the black spots kinda add to the old world charm of the hard landscaping that is here. Great job and don't beat yourself orange over it 😂
