That is a nice start. As you get your work going with before and after pictures you can replace those generic pictures they used. Nice looking site!

Looks really good man! I read through the entire site and articles, and didn't see any spelling mistakes. Only tiny nitpick would be that some commas could be added here and there, but that is a very minor issue and nothing to really worry about.

The deck cleaning category appears twice under the Softwashing menu.

All the links appear to be working except for the 'Google Plus' and 'Write Review' links, but maybe you just haven't gotten that far yet.

On the FAQ section, did you mean to say that roofs should be cleaned two or more times a year? I noticed you recommended that decks should also be cleaned twice per year. Seems a bit excessive, especially with the roofs, but perhaps it has something to do with your area. That's more of a question/clarification instead of a critique, i suppose.

One minor suggestion I have would be in the FAQ section where you say that the cleaning solution wont harm the landscaping. You might get a know-it-all customer that asks you why you are tarping and watering all the plants, if the solution wont harm them. Personally, I would modify it to say something along the lines of "our technicians have been trained to protect the landscaping at all times", or whatever.

Minor issues above, all in all it looks great.

Thanks Brett and Jason for taking the time to review and give me some feed back. I,ll look into the things mentioned and will address this to the support@footbridge. This kind of stuff is all new to me and will be a working progress as I learn more on how this all works. Thanks

Looks good. Your local work showing before and after pictures will validate your processes.

You are to be commended. You came to this board with humility and a willingness to be taught. That quality will continue to be of great value.

One of my guys a couple of years ago said to me: " All we do is wash houses. Anybody can do it..." He has since learned that a lot of time and learning and doing go into becoming the premier softwash exterior specialist in your market. He does sales too, and he regularly sells $ 1000-2000 dollar packages now that he knows we do more than just "wash houses"...

We know a thing or two because we have cleaned a thing or two..

Tayib,
It's a really good start. I recommend a couple of things. Borrow some before and after photos but just be sure to ask first. You may borrow some of mine if you wish. You will eventually replace them with your own.

Secondly, add a blog. This will allow you to frequently post new content which keeps the Google crawlers coming back for more resulting in top page ranking. I simply post before and after photos and give a description of the job, where the property is located and some technical info. Take a look at my blog to get a better idea.

Thanks guys for all the input! The work is coming in now and I will be add some new pictures soon. I will need to ask footbridge why the few pictures that I provided are not on my site yet.
