      Bro the pain of watching you and your wife go though this was a struggle bus to watch, especially seeing her out there helping. If it wasn't weird and I was local id volunteer my buddy out of Houston to do what the contractor should have done in the 1st place. Id probably also annoy the living shit out of you with questions about your cars and the shop building process. lol

    I'm a fan from Thailand and in my country we are common with flooding the whole time in rainy season. I suggest you to prepare sandbags to block in front of your garage door and all the area that water maybe seeping in. This is just a temporary solution until you get it fix from that building company.

    If you are thinking of buying a floor cleaner I recommend a eco h2o floor scrubber, we use them for custodial in the schools and they just use water but they have a square scrub head on them which makes it super nice for getting into corners and they are very easy to clean out with just a hose with a spray nozzle on it

  • @frotobaggins7169
    @frotobaggins7169 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    The company i used to work for had a Tennant 5400. It was really cool, battery operated so no cord to limit you or get in the way. It would run for hours. It was a walk behind and was much bigger than the clark but would turn around in it's own foot print or nearly that, so you could use it in small spaces. It had rubber bumpers to guide it around equipment with no damage. The big down side is it was expensive to repair when it needed it. the squeege was the common part needing replaced as people would drive it on brushed concrete and that ruins the squeege. It used brushes instead of pads so they would last forever. We ran it daily in a 100,000 square foot building.
    In a pinch, you could get the floor good n wet, as in standing water, scrub it with a push broom then use a wet floor attachment for a shop vac and suck up all the dirty water. Working one small area, maybe 10x10, at a time. This would also help for your extra dirty spots like your 1/8" dirt spots.

  • @go4747
    @go4747 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So I just thought of this idea. You should definitely instal some security cameras around the shop (inside outside etc.) but you should get some that allow you to easily take the footage and use it for TH-cam. So like for long time lapses of cleaning or working you could easily pull that footage and have a separate angle. And you’d be able to see everything for yourself and feel safe. Hope you like the idea 💡 keep up the good work! 👍🏻👍🏻

  • @kingalbby2497
    @kingalbby2497 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I used to run those floor scrubbers and the robot versions of those for a local business overnight. I would say 100% get a battery powered one and you can run it with the squeegees/vacuum up so you soak the floor then you can go back over with the vacuum to pick it up. It lets you get the harder stuff up.

  • @Creati_Xx
    @Creati_Xx 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Glad you're still doing okay man! Good to see it clean again. To bad you didnt do a little bit of research before buying one of those cause there are definitely better products on the market, like where the pad is not misaligned. Karcher has some great products for doing that kind of job which i have used in the past. Anyhow, keep it going!

    Sucks you had to deal with it, but you’re right about attitude being key. An old guy I used to work with used to say-when asked how he was doing-“ain’t no use in complaining.” Thats right in the money. Doesn’t do any good and no one else cares. Stay positive and keep on moving

    Let me make a suggestion to you. Once you get the water issue addressed. Put F.R.P. panels on the bottom of your walls. They will go about 4' up the wall. But would allow you to pressure wash the entire floor without ruining your dry wall. Plus it will protect your walls from scuffs and damage. I just did it in my garage and couldn't be happier. Don't have as nice or garages you but definitely helps with 5 kids banging crap against the wall

    So was wondering if you have drywall inside your shop?
    If you do
    Have you checked for any microbial growth ? Mainly inside the walls ?
    Was the Insulation wet ?
    Not really sure how your walls are built but if it’s drywall you may actually want to open a test hole and see inside.

    Hey brother, I work for a restoration business that deals with water damage/mold. You should get a mitigation company out there to test for moisture on the exterior walls. You are better off tearing out drywall at least 2’ maybe 4’. Mold can grow roughly 48 hours after it gets porous materials wet. Even if you don’t have them do work you at least can get a professional to document the water damage for insurance purposes and for court. Also hiring an indoor hygienist to test the quality of air in the building would benefit you to make sure you aren’t breathing mold spores. Hope this helps.

Also I don’t know if you have thought about it yet but you could put a rubber or plastic bump guard around the bottom edge of the wall seal it to the floor and even if it was to flood again it would save your walls and protect them from shop equipment hitting the walls to.
