Driveway cleaning the hard way
« on: May 24, 2011, 08:33:27 pm »
I powerwashed the drive of one of my customers five weeks ago. She thought next doors would go for it as well but alas no. Anyway, got there again today and someone was cleaning the drive next door. Fair enough, but the guy was using a tiny, electric karcher, water peeing out of the body of the washer and a short wand.
It was a block paving driveway, really mossy and dirty and apparently, he had been there two days already? He was only half way down the drive and I watched him as I was cleaning the windows and he was cleaning each block, one by one at around 5 minutes each  :o
But the really funny thing was he looked really happy. Ipod on and smiling/singing away  :)
