Testimonial
"I am very satisfied with the service of Henry's housework. They quality and level of service is exceptional and I sincerely appreciate their prompt response to my request to replace roof tiles. In today's society, I find the level of work ethics and customer service has declined in a variety of professions. Henry's Housework is the exception to the rule. Please accept my appreciation Henry, and to Nichole of your staff for a quality job."

Henry's Housework and Commercial Restorations Leads A Team Of Contractors To Pressure Wash Sections Of The Lincoln And Jefferson Memorials!
Vincentown, NJ (PRWeb) August 9, 2006 -- On August 21, 2006 pressure washers will clean sections of the Jefferson memorial to remove years of discarded gum and food stains. Then on August 22, 2006, the Lincoln memorial will also be cleaned as part of the PWNA's Clean Across America program. This volunteer project encompasses a variety of obstacles for the group of pressure washers to overcome, including the use of environmentally-compliant cleaning methods and specialized equipment to meet the requirements of the Clean Water Act. The pressure washers participating in the project will employ professional-grade Sirocco water reclamation systems and other equipment designed to stop runoff from reaching the Potomac River and the tidal basin. Thousands of feet of specially designed SpiraFlow pressure lines, low pressure hot water and steam will also be used as the group of pressure washers remove accumulated layers of discarded gum and food stains from these cherished memorials.
CAA consists of a huge variety of projects across the Nation performed by PWNA members in order to donate their services to their communities, and promote the PWNA's approved methods of pressure washing in the industry..
"What some consumers don't realize is that using high pressure water to clean historic structures like these can cause considerable damage and these memorials are made of stone. Just imagine how much damage can be caused to surfaces like wood decks and aluminum siding when using high pressure like 3,000 PSI on them," states Henry Bockman, the President of the PWNA Maryland state chapter. The PWNA sets the Standards for the pressure washing industry by offering rigorous training and certification programs that promote proper techniques, education and knowledge instead of just the use of a high-pressure blast.
The PWNA's Clean Across America campaign began years ago when members donated their services to local communities, parks, public aid programs, and other charity-based organizations. This volunteer program has tripled the value of donated services in the past two years. "CAA consists of a huge variety of projects. It isn't just about large high profile projects," states Mr. Bockman. "It's about one person making a difference in the world around them." CAA continues to gain momentum through highly visible projects to draw attention to the proper pressure washing techniques and standards set by the PWNA.
Other goals for the PWNA include expanding its training programs related to job safety and to promote education as the antidote to the damage caused by using improper excessive pressure often employed by less-experienced pressure washers.
The Clean Across America campaign and this project, are coordinated by Henry Bockman of Henry's Housework (Germantown, MD), the founder of the PWNA's Clean Across America campaign and local resident of Germantown, Maryland.
"Without out the dedication of top-notch contractors like these, projects like this just wouldn't be possible," states Everett Abrams, Vice President of PWNA. "These people make an outstanding effort every year to raise the awareness of professionalism in the power washing industry and to educate consumers on proper power washing standards." Supporters are encouraged to come out and see the amazing difference this team of contractors will make at these historic sites and to get more involved in their own communities. The media is also encouraged to attend to showcase contractors that care about the quality of their work, the environment and the quality of their services."
