Winter's Icey Hands Still Gripping Us Here In the Ozarks
It hard to think about a house washing when we're still suffering through the winter. The average temperature for this time of year is 52 degrees, yet we are still hovering around the freezing point. Low temperatures do not let our cleaners and soap work and makes water pressure cleaning impossible. We still do estimates which are free and prompt just call Pete for you needs at 417-459-7869.

"Many
Thanks for a job very welldone! The day after Pete cleaned my house he
drove past on an errand, saw something that didn't meet his standards, I
didn't notice it, but returned and did that part over again! Pride in
your work is something one doesn't see very often. Alive and well at
Pete's. Thanks again!"
"Yes! I called you ... I should have told you how awesome of a job you did - you did!"
Pete made a new video in stead of just before and after pictures he put the process together and made a short video. You can see through these pictures what we see while cleaning a house. From the first walk around to the finished results with very happy home owners. This house was quite dirty and did take two and even three soapings and washing to come clean. When Pete started it was 35 degrees and it made it up to 43 to 44 that day so cleaners were not working at top performance. Look for more videos from Cleaned by Pete on You Tube.
"Warning do not remove this tag under penalty of law"
Wait wrong tag, the tags Cleaned by Pete removes are the ones you want to be gone. Pete was out doing some bids on concrete cleaning today, which happened to take him two stores down form the brick office where he had removed the tagging earlier this week. It was only around 34 degrees that day and was getting ready to snow. He wanted to check and make sure the chemicals were all rinsed out of the brick. There was still a bit of white chalking on the bricks form the cleaners so he naturalized it again. Cleaned by Pete wishes they could have gotten out all the color but it was good red paint, a nice heavy coat too, on light colored brick, and temperatures were low it is 36 degrees today. Here are the pictures of the tag removal project. This is what you can expect when it is cold the warmer weather will yield better results. Visit us at face book, Cleaned by Pete or Power Washing Springfield MO for more information.

Cleaned by Pete want to thank all our clients for their support.
I like writing just about washing houses or power washing but it does not pull in a bunch of new viewers. So from time to time I just may go off topic, today is one of these days. Here are some signs that I like hope they you a smile or even a chuckle. Have a good day and Happy Valentines Day, FYI Valentines Day is participated by mostly by younger children, married couples and adults in committed relationship. Non committed adults and singles do not participate in this event. It took our government no telling how many man hours and at what cost to come up with this amazing fact. They could pay me $10.00 and a dinner and I could have told them: "non committed adults and singles do not participate because they have no one in their lives to sent or give a Valentine Day card or gift too, Duh!!!".
Thanks for the support and viewing our blog have a good day and if you have a washing or cleaning project call 417-459-7869 for a free prompt estimate.

Well what are we? I find it hard to keep up with what we are this year, apposed to last year or the year before. Most of us do the same thing to some extent or the other, we wash or clean objects with some form of water pressure. Now weather it is low pressure or high-pressure, it is still pressure of some sort. These days we all try to find a nitch or some-thing that will set us a part in the industry. This is where the question of what we're called comes in; pressure washer, power washer, mobile contract cleaner, soft washing, high pressure washing, wood restoration, house washing, water pressure washing, cosmetic cleaner, mobile washing contractor, along with other titles that have been bandied about over the years. They come up with new categories for us to advertise in each year and they keep changing too. This all make a difference where we will place and what key words to use now or in the future.
We all want to be found on the internet. I'm not the best with understanding the search engines or I might be working in that field instead of washing. With the big push for fresh content and wording to gain a higher foot hold we have to come up with new names for what we do. Here at Cleaned by Pete do well locally ranked and that is really all we need to keep going and growing we are small and do not travel great distances for jobs. We do however fall into several fields of the industry. So when someone is looking for a local washing contractor we need to be noticed or ranked high in as many categories as possible. We're behind when looking under "pressure washing". I really never felt that this name was the best for what our company does and never used it much in titles and names, this is why we lag behind in the look-ups and why we're displayed lower on the page. Most people won't go past the first page and some never reach below half way before calling. To help get noticed I made a new video and posted it on YouTube. Titling it with the name that fits the area we need to get ranked higher in. With more views we will become a bit stronger on the search engines. I am posting it here and at our other blog for viewing, let us know what you think and thanks in advance for the views and your support of these blogs.
