00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: the winds are coming and then behind that would be

Speaker 1: we'll go back to Al and Al welcome.

24
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 3: Thank you, Barry. We're speaking of a drip edge for shingles.

25
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 3: The short story is the there was a new roof

26
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 3: installing our home in September twenty three. We bought the

27
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 3: house you after that.

28
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: And.

29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 3: I noticed that there was no drip edge installed when

30
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 3: the new roof was put on. And you know whether

31
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: or no gutters. So the pitch on the roof is

32
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 3: uh about an let's call him eight twelve ditch about

33
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 3: eight for a rise twelve foot a run. And I'm thinking, well, okay,

34
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: the rubber when he saw the shingles, extended the first

35
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 3: row of shingles about two inches beyond the edge of

36
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 3: the the ship by the pedure the room. What's happened?

37
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 3: I didn't catch you in time of the shingles. That

38
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 3: two inches is bent over if you will, right, the

39
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: sun heated up the shingles and then the shingles. Yeah,

40
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 3: you can see the picture to long. Yeah, I think

41
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 3: that's not healthy for the shingles. And I'm thinking of

42
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 3: installing the grip edge. Who we have you know it

43
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 3: would come, it would accommodate that you know, that particular

44
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 3: roots blob, and then then I provide a good surface

45
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: of event, you know, straight in the shingles back out.

46
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 3: What's your thought there? Uh? I have to look at

47
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 3: every time because it's straight over the grudge area, and

48
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 3: I'd like to have your input if so.

49
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: Are you thinking about cutting those shingles and then putting,

50
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,839
Speaker 1: like flashing under them and extend out the drip edge

51
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: like that, or what are you thinking about trimming the

52
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: shingle and then put a fleshing underneath that overhang of

53
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: the shingle, because those shingles really shouldn't even be hanging

54
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: more than a half inch over probably more like three.

55
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was low cause bitter, but.

56
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so what are you thinking on rectifying it?

57
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: How are you looking at.

58
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: I looked at the type of drip edges of the

59
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 3: elbow and what I was thinking, there's some that have

60
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: about an inch and a half. Yeah, the tee, the

61
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 3: top part of the tea is about an inch and

62
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: a half. That would accommodate leaving that half inch of

63
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 3: shingle overlapping the drip edge. I think I don't want

64
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: to go in there and do any trimming, if you will,

65
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: but I like to just lift up the shingle, slide

66
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 3: the drift edge under and tack it in three or

67
00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 3: four places, and then you know, attack it that way.

68
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 3: But I'm concerned i'd have to do it, probably maybe

69
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 3: in a you know, probably in summer, when the shingles

70
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: a little more mali plan don't want.

71
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: Well, that was going to be my first question, and

72
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: that is how malible is that shingle? Because your your

73
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: thought process is correct, it's just a matter of what

74
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to see you do. Since those shingles

75
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 1: are already somewhat compromised. I don't want to see you

76
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: lift up that shingle and have it come off in

77
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: your hand, you know.

78
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 2: Crack sure knew though.

79
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah they're three years old, so.

80
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they should be relatively malleable, if you will.

81
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: And I would wait till it got a little bit warmer.

82
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: And then I before I even really even got my

83
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: drip edge, you know, I would just see how much,

84
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: you know, how much lift am I going to get

85
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: out of there?

86
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: Before I start feeling like.

87
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: I got to be a little, you know, a little

88
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: restrained on what I'm doing. And I think you'll get

89
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: your reading and I I think, you know, yeah, it's

90
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: that two inch is just too long. Obviously if you

91
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: left it there and had some support and then something

92
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: extend beyond that, I mean, you have it reinforced, so

93
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: you'd be you'd be fine. My concern is the same

94
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: thing yours. We just don't want to damage it trying

95
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: to fix it.

96
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 2: And and you.

97
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: Know, I think when you, you know, you give it to

98
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: a couple of days in the eighties and you give

99
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: it a little get on that ladder and field, I

100
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: think you're going to get your answer, and I think

101
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: you'll be fine. And what.

102
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 3: I have to I have to fasten the drip edge somehow.

103
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 3: And I've looked at YouTube videos and all the show

104
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 3: relatively neuros. You know, you looked up to shingle and

105
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: apply some brooking nails all in place, right, I don't

106
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 3: have that luxery. I don't think until I get up

107
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 3: there and do something further investigating, there might be other

108
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 3: ways to do it. I have to have to think

109
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 3: about a little bit. I guess I could go actually

110
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 3: show the drip as with the stealess steels short stainless

111
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: steel screwing.

112
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: That would be something that I would definitely take a

113
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: look at. I mean, you're going to have to fasten

114
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: that somehow, and I wouldn't recommend going through the shingle

115
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: and a lot of people do that and that doesn't

116
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: have a good ending.

117
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what we want to have the result, and yeah,

118
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 3: I think I take your brain and up here I

119
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 3: think we're on the same page. And ill and further

120
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 3: on the supporting the single I had looked at, like,

121
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: I think it's called a rope edge molding but or

122
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 3: tram or whatever we want to refer to it as.

123
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 3: But I haven't done anything. Actually, why enough. I think

124
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: the widest that I found is about three quarter inch

125
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 3: was still is an excessive amount of shingle over that

126
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 3: generally serve a purpose, you.

127
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 2: Know, one of the things you might take a look at.

128
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: And again I don't know the molding on the configure

129
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: or some but a Z makes a different kinds of

130
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 1: moldings and it's it's more of like I may use

131
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: the wrong initials here, but it's like a PVC type.

132
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: You know, it's not even wood.

133
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: And you know, with the situation you have, you might

134
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: be able to trim that cut that forge that to

135
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: what you want and anchor that so.

136
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 2: You might even it's a Z E C.

137
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: A Z it's a Z I K sorry and uh

138
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: a Z I K yes, And get on there and

139
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: just look at some of the different configurations of molding,

140
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: and you know very well may have uh an answer

141
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: there too, because a lot of those moldings and it's

142
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: going to be you know, waterproof, weatherproof and everything else.

143
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: You can use them inside, outside.

144
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: You can paint them.

145
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's very verse. So you're going to be

146
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: able to maybe find some molding that isn't designed exactly

147
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: for that but will work.

148
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 3: That's that's appropriate. Yeah, good asy, I k I'll send

149
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 3: them out. But yeah, that's a good good tips there. Yeah, okay,

150
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate your help this morning.

151
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 2: Gary, You're quite welcome. Thank you.

152
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: Take care by which is one of the tips I

153
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: have for today. I always try to and I know

154
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: we're always focusing on gutters at least when we're outside

155
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: and soffits, and that's where the ventilation is. That's where

156
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: animals get into your adding. I'm always talking about that

157
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of things that can go wrong there.

158
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: And one of the things with a shingle, if you

159
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: have gutters, that drip edge that's bringing the water down,

160
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: and that shingle extends beyond that underlayment by three ace

161
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: of an inch is usually enough to get the water

162
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: from the roof into the gutter. All right, Now here's

163
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: where the problem is, especially in homes that have a

164
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: few years on it, and for instance, you know, lifespan

165
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: of gutters is usually around twenty twenty five years.

166
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 2: And then things change.

167
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 1: Maybe the gutters are undersized, maybe they're the old nail

168
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: and faral and they're not anchored tightly against the house,

169
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: and they start moving forward a little bit, and then

170
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: that three ace of an inch of shingle is not

171
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: getting the water into the gutter. It's getting it behind

172
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: the gutter, even though the drip edge is the correct size.

173
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: So checking the gutters and making sure that they're tightened

174
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: tightly to the facia.

175
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 2: Is key.

176
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: Without that, water gets behind the gutters, water gets on

177
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: the foundation, Water gets could even be behind the facia

178
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: causing wood rot. So when time is appropriate, just take

179
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: take a look at how well the gutters are actually

180
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: anchored and whether that shingle, that drip edge gets the

181
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: water into the gutter, because if it's not getting one

182
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: hundred percent of that, things are going to become compromised.

183
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a break, we come back.

184
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: I want to talk a little bit about pressure washers

185
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: might even save that even for the next segment. As

186
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,880

198
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: Like mister Streker is our producer for the day Extraordinaire,

199
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: Joe Strecker.

200
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 2: He says, for Father's Day, I want a pressure washer.

201
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: Tell you what guy doesn't want a pressure washer?

202
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: You got the garage, floor, of the patio, the driveway,

203
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: the sidewalk, But what size pressure washer or what's the

204
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: sweet spot for a pressure washer for a homeowner? And

205
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: I can tell you convenience wise, electric sounds great. For

206
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: practicality and performance not so much. It does depend on

207
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: what you're gonna use it for us your wash, your

208
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: car or something. You get a little two thousand psi electric,

209
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: But I'm always talking about be careful when you use

210
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: it on decks, not to use over like twenty four

211
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: hundred psi. But you can change a lot of that's

212
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: it's like water pressure in your house.

213
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 2: It's volume in pressure.

214
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: The sweet spot is a psi of three thousand to.

215
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: Thirty three hundred and thirty four hundred somewhere near. Here's

216
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 2: the key.

217
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: It's not always about the pressure, it's about the volume

218
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: of water. So if you got a two thousand psi

219
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: pressure washer, yeah, it's not gonna hurt your wood deck,

220
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: But if it's only giving you a gallon or a

221
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: gallon a half permitted, it's not going to clean that deck.

222
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: So three thousand to thirty four hundred psi is the

223
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: sweet spot.

224
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 2: And then your gowns permitted to probably somewhere between.

225
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, say two and a half gallons permitted

226
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: to two point eight gallons permitted. That's gonna give you

227
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,839
Speaker 1: plenty of flow. And you know the gas is gonna

228
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 1: give you great pressure. And then there is a you know,

229
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,119
Speaker 1: you got the wand but there's a there's an additional

230
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: part you can buy, and it's a fifteen inch circular

231
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: disc that can be attached to the pressure washer.

232
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: Inside that is two to four.

233
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: Nozzles, and when you squeeze the trigger, that disc almost

234
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: with the water coming out.

235
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 2: It's literally like floating above the concrete surface. It's like

236
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 2: a wash machine, right.

237
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: And you know, no matter what kind of pressure washer

238
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: you get, if you get there and you got the

239
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: wand and maybe you got a twenty five degree nozzle

240
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: or a forty degree nozzle, and you're going up and

241
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: back and up and back, think about every time you're

242
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: only at one point like straight on it because you're

243
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: moving it back and forth. With that disc, you're always

244
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: right on top of it. You're always right on top

245
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: no zebra stripes, which also means and I can I

246
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: can guarantee you this. If you take that same pressure

247
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: washer and you got a single wand and let's say

248
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: it's thirty three hundred PSI and you got a single

249
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 1: wand and you get two and a half gallons permitted

250
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: to water, and I got the single wan and you

251
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: got the disc, you will be done guaranteed in half

252
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: the time.

253
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 2: I'm going to be done, and it's gonna look awesome.

254
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: So if you're looking at you know a little this

255
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 1: is what I gotta get. That is exactly what I

256
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: would get, and then you're gonna have your you know,

257
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: your choices of tip are gonna come with that pressure washer.

258
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: Make sure there is choices that come with it, and

259
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: there will be. It's not choices, it's pre package. It'll

260
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: be a zero degree pinpoint, which is very very rarely used.

261
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: That's when I always say people get in trouble because

262
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: you could drill a hole in concrete. But if you

263
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: get a fifteen degree that's the width of the fan

264
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: spray of the pressure washer. Fifteen degrees that's real heavy dirt.

265
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: Twenty five degree is general cleaning. And then forty degree

266
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: nozzle is delicate surface? Is what would that be a

267
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: delicate vinyl sighting? And I proclaim, and people may very

268
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: well disagree with me, but if you have a two

269
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: and a half gallon three thousand PSI pressure washer and

270
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna do your deck, that's a delicate surface. I

271
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: know it's a wood deck, doesn't look like there's anything

272
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: delicate at about it, but I would use a forty

273
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: degree nozzle on it. And then if you got that

274
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: disc man, you'll knock that thing out quick. If you

275
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 1: don't have board at a time, and remember you're not,

276
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: you know, eighteen inches away from the way you're using that,

277
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: I would really really take a look at not going

278
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: over or under that forty degree if you're using a

279
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: Wand I get stories all the time where people use

280
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: a twenty five degree or pray tell a fifteen degree

281
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they start standing in a

282
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: couple days later, and there's little fuzzes that are darker

283
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: than the rest of the wood because they use the

284
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: wrong sized tip.

285
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: But if you're.

286
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: Looking again, three thousand to thirty three hundred psi.

287
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 2: Two two and a half gallons permitted it of water,

288
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 2: and I think you'll be very happy, and you'll be

289

329
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: Just at Home with Gary Sullivan h Ron Welcome.

330
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 8: Good morning, Thanks for taking my call.

331
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 2: You're welcome.

332
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 8: I have a house built in seventy two. We've lived

333
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 8: here since seventy seven, and during that time we've put

334
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 8: three new roofs on. I've used the quality shingle each time,

335
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 8: and each time because of hail damage. Luckily I've only

336
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 8: had to meet the deductibles.

337
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 9: My question is.

338
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,199
Speaker 8: The next time I put a new roof on it,

339
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 8: I'm considering meddle. And I also heard your conversation a

340
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 8: few weeks ago on the composite shingles. With that kind

341
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 8: of a history of hail damage, the metal makes me

342
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 8: a little nervous. I could see it being dented and

343
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 8: looking bad, but not torn out, bad enough to leak

344
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 8: and the insurance company saying too bad, you gotta live

345
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 8: with it. What would your opinion be on metal versus composite.

346
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 2: Uh, I can answer it for metal.

347
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can really answer it on

348
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: the composite because I'm not real super familiar with it.

349
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 1: I wanted to have a composite roofing guest on to

350
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 1: get more information, and.

351
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 2: I don't know. I need to back up a little bit.

352
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: Tell me what who the insurance company told you if

353
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: there's hail damage to a metal roof, you got to

354
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: live with it.

355
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 2: Is that the deal?

356
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 8: No, they didn't tell me that, okay, but I I

357
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 8: could in the future see them telling me something like that.

358
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, So let's not assume that. Let's let's let's

359
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: let's go backwards a little bit. Let's just say we're

360
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: talking to our insurance company or your salesperson for the

361
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 1: or broker or whatever, and just say, listen my policy.

362
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 2: You know hail damage.

363
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we had a hailstorm ount in Denver, Colorado,

364
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: about four years ago. It destroyed thousands of cars. So

365
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit here profess that a metal

366
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: roof isn't going to have a ding of a den

367
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 1: if it hells, but it's pretty resistant to hail damage.

368
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 2: It really is.

369
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: More so even than a regular shingled roof, right. But

370
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: one of the big things is, so I'd really like

371
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: to know what your policy covers. But there's a big

372
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: trend going on right now on shingled roofs where they're

373
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 1: pro rating roofs. There's no one hundred percent coverage anymore,

374
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 1: or I should say that there's less and less one

375
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,199
Speaker 1: hundred percent coverage. So I would be you know, if

376
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: you're getting ready to put a roof on, I'd really

377
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: want to know what that is, especially with the history

378
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: of hal in your area, and you know what the

379
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 1: results are a shingle roof, and you know, if you

380
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: get a fifteen year roof and you get you know,

381
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: hail damage, you're going to get maybe forty to fifty

382
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: percent of that cost covered. You're not going to get

383
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: a new roof. So I'd like to know what that is.

384
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 1: So that's one thing if I were you, I would

385
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 1: definitely check. The second thing that I would check is

386
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: on the composite. I feel pretty confident that it too

387
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: can be damaged, and I don't know how to put

388
00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 1: an equivalent on that or you know, you know how

389
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:04,199
Speaker 1: hard is hard hail that's going to deposit, you know,

390
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: do damage to a composite. I don't think it's going

391
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 1: to break it, no more than it's going to break

392
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: a metal roof. Yet could possibly break a shingled roof,

393
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 1: especially an older shingled roof.

394
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 2: But on a.

395
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,400
Speaker 1: Composite roof, I've I've felt them, I've seen them, I've

396
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,360
Speaker 1: played with them, but I haven't got any experience on them.

397
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: I would say there would be some dentation into the

398
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: composite also, And maybe another good question to ask that

399
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: insurance company, because really that's what you're looking for. You

400
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: want to know what that guarantee is against hail, and

401
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 1: I don't know how they rate that. And then I

402
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: also want to find out what your insurance pay out

403
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: on a composite or metal roof would be for hail damage,

404
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: whether it's provaded or covered.

405
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 8: Right, So yeah, that makes perfect sense.

406
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 2: Very good, glad to help. Thank you, Dan, Welcome, Hey Gary,

407
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 2: how are you doing doing good? Thanks good?

408
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 9: And I've called him before. I've been an agent independent

409
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 9: agent in Cincinnati now for forty years. But on them,

410
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 9: we're metal when it first came out was kind of

411
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 9: like the God send over, you know, the compiler or

412
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 9: the asphalt and everything. Right, we recently had a meeting

413
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 9: with Cincinnati Insurance and as far as wind hail damage,

414
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 9: they're they're making those policies now when it's metal with

415
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 9: a mandatory percentage deductible as opposed to a fixed dollar

416
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:45,119
Speaker 9: deductible like you would have on a shingle roof. Okay,

417
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 9: so they are finding more cosmetic damage to metal roofs

418
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 9: than you know, an architectural shingle. And then all policies

419
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 9: now they're starting to kind of a la cart these things.

420
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 9: Where do you want to buy additional coverage for uh,

421
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 9: you know, cosmetic damage to the roof insiding due to

422
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 9: wind and hail. And it's all specific, just the wind

423
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 9: and hail. But they're they're now they're making you buy

424
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 9: this stump back as far as cosmetic kind of what

425
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 9: he was going through with a dinged up roof. Yeah,

426
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 9: the metal, the metal kind of following out of favor

427
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,199
Speaker 9: right now as far as something long term, So.

428
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this.

429
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: I know a little bit about metal roofing, but I

430
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: know there there would be different grades on metal roofing

431
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: also too, in different types of metal roofing.

432
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:35,479
Speaker 2: Correct.

433
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 9: Oh, absolutely, yeah, and so how's that played? I was, well,

434
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 9: it was we had the lost Control guy from Cincinnati

435
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 9: actually not to keep using them. Yeah, but he said

436
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 9: it's it's not just and I'm not overly familiar with

437
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 9: metal roofs and how they're you know, the different installation messages,

438
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 9: but he said it's not just a cosmetic thing. They

439
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 9: find when these things get dinged up, it breaks the

440
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 9: seals on you know, the fastening systems and things like that.

441
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 9: I don't know if that's across the board, but they're

442
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 9: finding more issues with them than the originally thought they

443
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 9: would have when they you know, when they got popular

444
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 9: and everything.

445
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

446
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: So I know, like some of the metal roofings, you know,

447
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: even the fasteners have little gaskets on there, and those

448
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: are mainly not used on homes. They're more kind of

449
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 1: looked at barns, but a lot of people use them

450
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: on homes. So that's an issue. I'm wondering if the

451
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: I guess what determines the cosmetic damage? Do you have

452
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: any idea? I know we're just kind of spitballing, but

453
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: you know, I mean also with a metal roof and

454
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 1: the sun hits it at a certain angle, you're going

455
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: to see more dings than an area of the metal

456
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: roof that has some dings and the sun isn't directly

457
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 1: hitting it.

458
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,360
Speaker 2: So what determines that there's cosmetic damage?

459
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 9: And that's that's basically you know you you've got a

460
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 9: roof for it, says you know you've got or or

461
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 9: the home own or themselves see it. And then you

462
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 9: get an insurance company adjuster involved. And with these endorsements

463
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 9: for cosmetics, they can you know, they can pinpoint. Now

464
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 9: with technology, they can say, well, yeah, there was a

465
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 9: hail park right on April first, so yeah, you you

466
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 9: could have a you could have the hail damage, so

467
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 9: we'll give you that, and then then do you have

468
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 9: these And not all policies are like this yet, but

469
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 9: we're seeing more and more policies go to this. You

470
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 9: have to buy the additional absolutely, yeah, I mean you

471
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 9: And it's specific to wind and hail. So if your

472
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 9: house burned down with these roof schedules and everything, that's

473
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 9: a different story. But when it's wind hail, the cosmetic

474
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 9: rider basically applies to siding and roofing and gutters and

475
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 9: everything else that they can get damaged. Oh okay, really

476
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 9: they've kind of really fine tuned that and they keep

477
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 9: doing it. But I found it interesting that that with Cincinnati,

478
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 9: because they're they're pretty well, yeah, they're only there, you know,

479
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 9: their reputation and everything. But sure the fact that you

480
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 9: can't even if you have a brand new house with

481
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 9: a brand new metal roof. The way they were explaining

482
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,640
Speaker 9: these and this is coming out shortly, it's not out

483
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 9: there now, but you don't have an option for a

484
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 9: twenty five hundred dollars deductivele You have an option for

485
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 9: a one percent or a two percent deductible. And that

486
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 9: number applies to if it's a million dollar house. You've

487
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 9: got one hundred thousand dollars one percent deductible now on

488
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 9: wind hail damage. Wow, so can he can get up

489
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 9: there pretty quick?

490
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 2: Yeah? Exactly.

491
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: That's great information. I appreciate. I know that whole you know,

492
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: industry is changing, and I think for good reason. I

493
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 1: think I told Jed last time, I've seen enough horror

494
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: stories that now with being able to say there was

495
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: a hailstorm, that's good technology to have because some of

496
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: the health damage that insurance companies paid out in the

497
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: past was not always hail damage, and I've let it

498
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: over the.

499
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,479
Speaker 9: Over forty years. I've had clients that, you know, had

500
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 9: a twenty five year old roof that was twenty five

501
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 9: years old, and the roof comes out to give him

502
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 9: a bit on it, and it's like, you've got hal damage,

503
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 9: no kidding, but the church company by a new roof

504
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 9: and that's for years. That's what happened. And now they're

505
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 9: starting to scale that back. Yeah, and really able to

506
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 9: pinpoint him and everything like that.

507
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 2: So not that I'm an angel. Good move.

508
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: I'd see that happen and it used to really haunt

509
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: me off. I mean, oh god, yeah, I mean it's

510
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: just it wasn't right. I've had people even today stand

511
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: there and I know it's changing. They don't know it's

512
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: changing me. Like, I'm not putting a roof until we

513
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: get a halstorm. It's like, dude, you need.

514
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, And I feel like, you know, somehow, I've got

515
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 9: a real good client here locally and the same thing

516
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 9: and they and he I grew up with this guy

517
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 9: and I'm not going to make the insurance county. I

518
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 9: know I need a roof, so I'm just gonna pay

519
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 9: for it, and that's what he ended up. You know,

520
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 9: he paid for there. But that's not always when you're

521
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 9: when you're staring at a fifty thousand dollars Yeah, installation

522
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 9: for a new roof, it kind of bends.

523
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear you. But I always scratched my head

524
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 2: when I paid for that roof? Is like, am I

525
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 2: the dummy here?

526
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 6: Yeah?

527
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 9: Right, exactly exactly.

537
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,000

540
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 4: This is fifty five KRC an iHeartRadio station.

541
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 2: Hey, Gary Sullivan here, as we.

542
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 5: Brian Thomas weekday mornings at five on fifty five KRC

Speaker 5: and online at fifty five KRC dot com.

544
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: All right, talking about your home and a perspective of maintaining.

545
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 1: And that's one of the hardest things to do is

546
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: get people to think about maintenance. It's always an emergency

547
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: when it's broken, right, but there's a lot of things

548
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: we can do to hopefully prevent the breakdowns. And one

549
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: of those things right now is if you don't have

550
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: one that comes and checks your AC before it turns on,

551
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you can check it and see if it

552
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: turns on, but just you know, there's a lot of

553
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: specials out there, eighty nine bucks, ninety nine bucks and

554
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: they'll do a twenty point tune up. And it's just

555
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: a lot of little maintenance thing, you know, and checking

556
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: the refrigerant, tightening the screws and the connections and all that.

557
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 2: But it makes a difference. Chuck, welcome.

558
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 9: I'll give Betty a chance. I got a short one. Okay,

559
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 9: I've got I've got an oil stain in my garage

560
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 9: that is soaked in pretty deep into the concrete. And

561
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 9: you know mentioned something.

562
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 2: A while back to eat the oil.

563
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: Yeah it's yeah, or an enzyme, yeah, it's it's actually

564
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: a lot of bacteria that eats oil. They used it

565
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: in the BP oil spill, use it in refinery and

566
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: it's called ACT. So it's ACT, and it's ACT cleaners

567
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: dot com. It comes you know, it's used commercially. Still

568
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: you can buy in a ten pound bag or a

569
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: fifty pound bag. It's a white powder. You sprink wand

570
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: and it eats the oil stain. And this is the

571
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: part I can't explain to you. As the oil disappears,

572
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: but so does the white powder once it's eaten the

573
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: oil stain. Pretty unique product.

574
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 9: I think that's exactly what I need, all right, dot.

575
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: Com, Yes, sir, okay, very good, all right, all right,

576
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: thanks take care. We got Kim and said Betty. Betty

577
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: hung up. Kim, welcome, Hi.

578
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 10: Thank you for taking my call.

579
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 2: You're welcome.

580
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: Okay.

581
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 10: So I've got a two story house that sits on

582
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 10: a on a basement. It's not a finished basement. Part

583
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 10: of the basement is you know, underground, and a portion

584
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 10: of that center block inside the basement has a what

585
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 10: looks like a white substance on it. I don't know

586
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 10: if it's mold. And like I said, it's just in

587
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 10: one area and on the outside you know of that block.

588
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 10: You know, it's that particular area does tend to hold

589
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 10: a lot of water when it rains. So I didn't

590
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 10: know what your thoughts were and what potentially that was

591
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 10: what I can do about.

592
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, So what it's called. It's called efflorescence. And does

593
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 2: it look like salt?

594
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 10: It kind of does.

595
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 9: Yeah.

596
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:50,760
Speaker 2: So when an area has water issues.

597
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: And that masonry block continues to get wet and a

598
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: lot of block is like that in concretes like that,

599
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 1: depending on how much you know, uh, lime and salts

600
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: are in that masonry block and how much water gets

601
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: on that activates it.

602
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 2: It begins. I use the word blooms.

603
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's the correct explanation of it,

604
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: but if you have effluorescence.

605
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 2: It makes sense. You know, it looks like it's blooming.

606
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 2: It's growing.

607
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: It's not mold, it's it's literally salts and lime. Is

608
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: this on the outside and the inside or just the insideer?

609
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 2: How's it?

610
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 10: It's just on the inside and it's just in that

611
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 10: one you know specific Okay?

612
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 2: Is that on the above grade or below grade?

613
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 10: Below grade?

614
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 2: Yeah?

615
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: So my guess is what's happening is water is pulling

616
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 1: in that given area and has for a while, and

617
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,760
Speaker 1: the water is actually penetrated in and maybe even filling

618
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: up the block.

619
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: And I don't know if that wall ever gets damp

620
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 2: or not.

621
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 10: And it never water, you know, on the base before

622
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 10: or anything. It never collects.

623
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 2: Okay, does it get damp though.

624
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 10: You know, it does look like it gets damped.

625
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's yeah. I'm so once it starts, it

626
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 2: never really goes away.

627
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: Okay, even if we we can, we can change the

628
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: eliminate the source of the water, but even water vapor

629
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:51,919
Speaker 1: will make that crystallize. So there's an efflorescence cleaner. Quick

630
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: Creek makes it. It's a non acid. A lot of

631
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: effluorescent cleaners are acid based. I don't really like to

632
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: recommend those. But it's called Efflorescence Remover. It's made by

633
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 1: quick Crete. You can check it out on their website.

634
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: It's a very high detergent and you use a brown palmyra,

635
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,240
Speaker 1: which is a brown woody scrub brush.

636
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 2: Even though it's.

637
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: It's just a detergent where goggles and just scrub that

638
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 1: down really good. And then I don't know if there's

639
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: much you're going to do. It's more of a maintenance thing.

640
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: I don't know how fast it's gonna come back until

641
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 1: we you know, one thing that will help it or

642
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: extend how long it lasts is whether we can address

643
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 1: that water issue or not. So if it's a downspout

644
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: that gets clogged there, or a gutter that overflows, or

645
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: a dip in the soil around that area, check those things,

646
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 1: the gutter, the grating, and groundwater.

647
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 2: And if we can.

648
00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: Soil.

649
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll get that filled up.

650
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 1: Check your gutters, make sure they're not spilling over when

651
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: it's raining, and you know, get that grading where it's

652
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 1: sloping away from the home and you'll minimize the water

653
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: that's collecting there, which will minimize the reblooming of the affluorescence.

654
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 1: So let's clean it with the quick Creed effluorescence remover.

655
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 1: Let's fix up the grating there, let's check the gutters,

656
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: and hopefully that gets you where you want to be.
