These guys are efficient, thorough and professional. Our back patios were in rough shape and they definitely brought them back to life. I highly recommend this company.
We had our decks power washed, stained, and sealed by Lara's. Went with the oil-based stain and a little darker color than what was there previously. Very happy with the result, and the crew came promptly on time when they said they would. Also, reasonably priced.
Our condo board went through a lot of back-and-forth trying to pick a company. We finally settled on this one, judging from reasonable pricing, other reviews and impressive response time. The team showed up the day of and got right to work. They (mainly Frederick) explained their progress as they went along.
Although I was far less sympathetic with owners who chose not to move their cars knowing full well that they were warned a month beforehand and all week (signs in lobby and on doors), unlike our prior power washers, Lara's Power Wash comes equipped. They had car covers to make sure those who didn't move their cars would not get stain/seal or dirt damage. (I, honestly, still am irritated by those who chose not to move their cars, minus the one on all flats. I fully understand that one. I was fully relieved when 95% of the deck furniture and belongings were all removed before we got here, so they didn't have to deal with too much of that.)
I like that the team came with color wheels, covers and all the supplies they needed. (They always seemed to be short on Caution tape, but luckily, we bought some the year before so they used ours.) Still, they were easy to work with, prepared, polite, focused and friendly. They have plenty to say about salt ruining decks in the winter, too. (We promise we'll find alternatives.) I'd easily hire them again, if I'm still on the board by the time we need to get it done again.
Also, although they were not handymen, they were able to recognize three loose stair bolts and risers that needed to be fastened and fixed that, too. And they got rid of this stubborn grease stain that one of the residents poured over the banister and had stained our sidewalk for six months. Our maintenance tried three times to get it up. Nothing worked. Lara's Power Wash got it though. Kudos!
But my absolute FAVORITE part of working with them was that they cleaned up after themselves. I had a helluva time with a prior power washing company leaving all their garbage behind. Lara's Power Wash team cleaned up every single thing they did along the way, including laying down covers, picking up all their buckets (and physically handing over the remainder sealant to me instead of just leaving it outside) and their tools. I love that they were so neat. If you didn't see them here (or the Caution tape) for four days, you'd never know there were about 6-8 guys scrambling around our deck, hammering, spraying and painting away.
Freddie and his team did a great job making our old decks look new again. They were very patient and helpful with the color selection and type of stain to use. We also had them clean and stain the swing set and a wooden park bench. Everything turned out beautiful! Thanks again Freddie and team! We appreciate you!
I've used Lara's Power Wash twice now to clean and seal my deck. My deck is older and I like the fact that it was given a gentle cleaning that didn't eat up the wood. I highly recommend Lara's and will use them again.
With the storms that we had, you folks were right o top of it every time. Also...it gave e a lot of peace of mind since I have a major heart problems and have been told that I should not shovel. Thanks for a safe winter. Looking forward to having you again next winter
Frederick did a great job on our deck and was able to find the same color we used years ago. The deck looks amazing and they are reasonably priced. Highly recommend!!
I had a great experience with Lara's Power Wash. In addition to cleaning my deck, they replaced about ten boards that showed signs of rot. Freddy is terrific. I look forward to the second phase of the project, which is cleaning (again) and staining (we have to wait a couple months while the new boards age a bit.) Reasonably priced.
These guys are great! We used them to power-wash/stain/seal our deck and they did a really good job. Great communication with Frederick, he showed up on time, and made sure to leave the area clean. Everyone is our building is very happy with him and our great-looking deck!
Freddy and his team power washed and sealed three decks at our house this week - their work, price, communication, and professionalism were terrific! They also power washed my 15-year-old teak patio furniture, which no one else would touch. It came out beautiful. Of the four quotes I got, their price was by far the most reasonable. I've already recommended Lara's Power Wash to my neighbor and condo association. Don't even bother looking elsewhere!
Your snow service was very good. However, it would be better if the prices including pet safe snow melt were closer to the lower prices including regular snow melt salt. We purchased our pet safe salt for much less than we would have paid if you used your salt.
