Lance Winslow President of Deck Wash Guys - Lance Winslow's Historical Account

Lance Winslow President of the Deck Wash Guys
History of Lance Winslow's Deck Washing Company

Lance Winslow started the Deck Wash Guys in 1999 after one of his successful franchisees in the
Denver Colorado Market was hired by an HOA (Home Owners Association) near Parker, CO to
power wash the fence line surrounding the entire housing tract. The HOA also gave them the entire
exclusive for deck cleaning services, along with a strong referral. This allowed them the credibility
that Mr. Winslow's franchisee needed to start contacting all the high-end communities in the area for
possible services. Eventually they had contracts to treat entire log homes, decks, and more fences.

Seeing a massive amount of business and opportunity for his entire WashGuy Franchise System, Lance
Winslow set up a training program, created manuals and redesigned the UFOC Uniform Franchise
Offering Circular (the older equivalent of the FDD). This allowed the Deck Wash Guys to sell Franchises
as a stand alone franchised business or as another module to the original WashGuys System franchise.
Within no time the WashGuys Team of Franchisees was washing, cleaning, treating and coating Decks
in many states and developing a huge customer base to compliment the other residential services such
as the Concrete Wash Guys, Detail Guys and Car Wash Guys. The Deck Wash Guys was a winner.

Eventually, Lance Winslow sold the company to a much larger firm in 2001, just prior to 911. Lance
later felt bad that he sold the company and kicked himself for it, but Mr. Winslow's timing turned out
impeccable in hindsight, as the US economy took a huge hit and went into recession within a few months
after the sale. The purchasing company had their own established brand name, so this website now stands
as a historical record, and the franchisees still out there offering Deck Cleaning Services do often receive
referrals and consultation from Mr. Winslow. Lance says he is glad to be of assistance helping the team he
built up over time. If you are interested in starting a Deck Cleaning Company, perhaps you might shoot him
an email; Lance (AT) carwashguys {dot}. com and he can point you in the right direction to get started.

You see, it is Lance Winslow's contention that you must keep your deck looking good and protected. It's
amazing the amount of neglect that wood takes around the home, from gazebos to decks and from fence
lines to trim on the home itself. Most wood coatings last less than 3-4 years in harsh climates and even the
more high-tech materials used in composite decks need to be pressure washed on a routine basis. Lance
believes that a Deck Cleaning business is a nice small business for someone that wishes to be self-employed
and Mr. Winslow also understands that since Deck Cleaning in many regions of the country can be seasonal,
so Lance recommends combining it with other much needed pressure washing services. Something to think on.
