Damages:

Mike's Odd Jobs, LLC is not responsible for damages due to improperly installed siding, loose shingles or siding, broken or opened windows, improperly sealed windows and doors, wood rot, defective construction, improperly secured wires, loose or improperly installed gutters and leaders and improper caulking. In every aluminum siding case and in some cases with vinyl siding, the sun and weather will bleach the color or cause fading. Power washing, which entails removal of chalky, gritty or failing surface materials may cause the faded aspects of the vinyl or aluminum to stand out. Mike's Odd Jobs, LLC will not be responsible for such conditions. Mike's Odd Jobs, LLC will not be responsible for loose mortar that may dislodge during the cleaning process.

Power Washing uses high pressure and caustic chemicals to clean difficult stains off of exterior surfaces. Utilizing this pressure allows the best clean possible; however operating at such high pressure can also cause damage. Mike's Odd Jobs, LLC’s technicians are well trained in utilizing their equipment and take the upmost precautions in making sure the company does not cause harm to your investment. Although high pressure is not used on residential siding, damage can still occur due to poor maintenance, neglect to the property, and/or low grade building materials. Homeowners should consult with their homebuilder to insure that their home’s materials are able to be pressure washed. It is the responsibility of the homeowner to insure that their property has been maintained in accordance with its manufacture’s recommendations and any defects or areas of concern are repaired prior to washing to insure a watertight, surface.

Color and Tone Concerns:

The properties and species of wood age and weather can greatly affect the resulting color or tone of the stain. Note: Variances may occur on individual boards well as total project as densities and other characteristics vary across and throughout the wood. You must expect some variance in the overall finish.

The Homeowner assumes all of these risks and takes responsibility for any damage that occurs due to the above explanations.

Walk-Through

On the date of service, the Company will walk around the property with the customer. Mike's Odd jobs and the customer will examine the home and write down any concerns on the walk around form. We will attempt to document all pre-existing conditions This document is not all encompassing, as new damage can become apparent while the surfaces are being cleaned. When new damage is found, the Company will cease all cleaning efforts until the client can see the damage and acknowledge its existence.

Mike's Odd Jobs, LLC expects your property to be in good repair and weathertight. This includes, but is not limited to all electrical service including receptacles and light fixtures. Doors and windows shall also be weathertight. The Company is not responsible for damages as a result of water infiltration from poor or improper installation, maintenance or repair of electrical related items or doors or windows. The Company cannot guarantee removal of artillery fungus from exterior house surfaces.

The Client also agrees to release the Company of any or all liability for injuries sustained due to equipment placement to include injuries from tripping/falling, striking equipment, falling debris or equipment.

4) Clear the work areas of all items and remove all flags, doormats, vehicles, or sensitive materials from the areas being washed.

The Company reserves the right to deny service if this has not been completed, or has the option to charge the hourly rate to fix these issues.

The Company suggests the Client utilize their property’s breaker box to shut off power to any and all exterior outlets, light fixtures, or any other electrically powered features. This is especially important to outlets that are not covered with exterior covers.

Removal of screens will allow for even distribution of detergent and a better chance for streak-free drying. It is recommended that screens be removed to avoid screen discoloration from the chemicals used in the wash process.

Notify the Company if there are any surfaces on or near the home that cannot have any form of detergent on them. If the company is not notified of this, The Company is not responsible for any ill effects to any surfaces regarding this matter.

It is also vital to the preservation of the Client’s property that they notify the Company of any surfaces that cannot be cleaned with high alkaline/ acidotic or bleach based detergents (see exclusions below).

Exclusions:

The Company is not responsible for water intrusion. While every effort is made to prevent this from happening, bad seals around windows and doors and cracks in concrete foundations can make this unavoidable.

The Company is not responsible for the rare “fogging” effect that happens to multi pane windows with bad seals.

Stains:

This agreement to provide services is in no way a guarantee that stains will be removed completely. The Company does strive for a 100% customer satisfaction, and will work with homeowners when this does not occur. Some stains cannot be removed by power washing. Tree sap, artillery fungus, splatters from stains and paints are examples of materials that cannot be removed by conventional means. We make every attempt to point these areas out to the customer when quoting the project. Sometimes these stains cannot be removed at all.

Windows may become water spotted as a result of our services. Window cleaning is NOT included.
