| | Do you have decorative brick work or natural stone that you need to clean but are afraid you could damage it? You should be weary, as it is very easy to damage if you do not clean it correctly. Improper use of cleaning chemicals can destroy it, discolor it, and ruin it. Using the wrong kind of brush can do the same thing. Cleaning it with a pressure washer could be your best bet, but if you use the wrong pressure tip, all bets are off on that too. The biggest problem with using a pressure washers come from inappropriately choosing the wrong tip. For instance a "zero tip" will dig a horrible hole, which is just terrible unless you are attempting to drill a hole for an anchor iron to hang something. The zero tip could cut off someone's finger if it were used as a weapon. Another common tip to use is the 15 degree tip, most all pressure washers, even the little electric, Chinese built home units often have these. And although these little units only have 800 to 1500 psi, with a zero tip, if you get too close to the natural stone you can very easily cause permanent damage. Thus, I recommend keeping the pressure wand 12 inches away at all times when cleaning natural brick and to choose a 25 degree tip or larger, I recommend a 45 degree tip just to play it safe. The second problem with folks that clean natural brick is using the wrong chemicals that can permanently stain the brick, so it's best to use a semi-hard bristle brush, soap and water and a 45 degree pressure washing tip at the end of the gun or wand. | |

As it relates to new construction, remodeling or renovation, in most states, contractors are required by law, to carry workers compensation insurance for direct employees of their company. Doing business with a contractor who does not carry workers compensation insurance, that's current and in force, exposes you to potential liability if accidents occur on your property during the performance of their work. This is one of the most important credentials to consider when interviewing or hiring a contractor or trade to perform any of your work. Continue reading to learn why this is so important...
