The reset standard
Care you can see. A process you can understand.
Our standard defines how we assess the space, confirm scope, choose a method, protect adjacent property, communicate changes, and review the finished work.
The finish record
Pressure is not a method. The material decides.
Most damage outdoors comes from the right tool used on the wrong surface. This is what we choose, and what we refuse to do, on the materials South Florida homes are actually built from.
Travertine and marble
Low-pressure soft wash with a pH-appropriate cleaner, rinsed before it can dry.
No acidConcrete pavers
Surface cleaned, joints re-sanded, then sealed only once the deck is dry through.
Joint firstScreen enclosures
Mesh hand-washed and rinsed, frames detailed. A pressure wand is never pointed at mesh.
Hand washedPerformance fabric
Solution cleaned off the frame, then fully dried before cushions go back outside.
Label read firstArtificial turf
Rinsed, groomed against the pile to lift it, and treated where pets use it.
Drainage checkedStainless steel
Degreased, then polished along the grain so the finish stays even.
Grain directionVinyl and stucco
Soft washed at low pressure with planting pre-wetted and rinsed afterwards.
Plants rinsedTeak and hardwood
Cleaned along the grain; greying is a finish decision, not a cleaning failure.
Finish discussedGlass
Washed and squeegeed; hard-water etching is identified, not polished out.
Etching notedEvery method and caution in this record is written to be trade-accurate but must be confirmed against the crew’s actual procedure. Publishing a method the team does not follow is a liability, not a differentiator.
The operating standard
Eight things that happen on every job.
-
Assessment
We record the surfaces, materials, condition, access, drainage, and anything fragile before a price is discussed.
-
Surface and material identification
The material, any previous coating, and the visible condition decide the method. Nothing is treated by category.
-
Property protection
Landscaping is wetted, water features and drains are identified, personal items are moved or excluded, and fixtures are noted.
-
Product and equipment policy
Named products at stated dilutions for stated surfaces. Where we are not qualified, we say so instead of improvising.
-
Team training and supervision
The owners perform and supervise the work. There is no rotating crew to train around the standard.
-
Communication
Arrival window confirmed, changes approved before they happen, completion confirmed the same day.
-
Final review
Every included area is walked again: coverage, streaking, placement, drying, and anything we chose not to treat.
-
If something is not right
One number, one owner, a stated window to report it, and a written response. No ticket queue.
This page is the highest-trust and highest-risk page on the site. Use it to document the real operating system, then improve that system over time. Steps four, five, six and eight need explicit owner sign-off, including the issue-reporting window and the written response commitment.
