Getting Ready For The Holidays Environmental Stewardship
As the holiday season approaches, many homeowners begin to prepare their homes for festive gatherings, cozy family dinners, and seasonal celebrations One often-overlooked task that can significantly enhance your home’s appearance is soft washing. This gentle cleaning method not only refreshes your home's exterior but also contributes to your friends and families safety this winter.
Soft Washing provides many environmental benefits including:
Soft washing uses one-third of the water pressure washing or power washing uses Seriously, we let our soaps and chemicals do the majority of the work and water is used to wash away our solutions from the area treated and surrounding areas
1 The clean lasts four to six times longer than regular pressure washing while also contributing to less water use
Soft washing allows us to remove dirt and algae buildup from the summer months and prevents the accumulation of additional build-up resulting from wetter East Texas fall weather
Slippery surfaces can pose a significant safety risk, particularly in winter. Mold, algae, and grime can create slick spots on walkways and driveways, increasing the likelihood of slips and falls. Soft washing helps to mitigate these hazards by providing a thorough clean, making your outdoor spaces safer for family and guests
2. Our soaps are water-based and biodegradable.

3. Our soaps and chemicals are bleach-stable, meaning they do not release harmful or toxic gasses when mixed with bleach.
While clean and sanitized exteriors are our #1 goal, we pride ourselves in environmental stewardship. These are just a few areas where soft washing offers environmental benefits To learn more, reach out to your sales consultant today for a free consultation.

Jim and Mo are awesome to work with. They got our patio and retaining wall cleaned, as it had a lot of dirt and the typical mold that can grow on the walls, and they got it looking like new. I highly recommend using Patriot Softwash.
Happy Thanksgiving from Patriot SoftWash! ��

Recipe Of The Month: Thanksgiving Leftovers Casserole
Equipment
9×13 casserole dish with high sides
Ingredients
2-3 cups stuffing
7-10 slices roasted turkey, or enough shredded turkey to generously cover the stuffing.
2/3 cup gravy
2 cups green bean casserole (or other veggie)
1 cup cranberry sauce
3-4 cups mashed potatoes
Instructions
1.
2.
Preheat the oven to 350F
Add a layer of stuffing to the bottom of your casserole. This is the base of your casserole, so make sure it covers the entire bottom.
3.
Arrange sliced or shredded turkey over the stuffing. I suggest overlapping slices or, if using shredded turkey, using plenty. The turkey should be the star of your casserole.
4.
Ladle a liberal amount of gravy over the turkey.
5.
toppings
1 1/2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese
1/2 cup French's® Fried Onions
Next add your green bean casserole, or whatever veggie you ' re using. Spread it out evenly.
6.
For the cranberry sauce, you can add small dollops over the beans. You can spread it out evenly or leave it as dollops.
7.
Add a thick layer of mashed potatoes over top. I don't spread the potatoes to the edges, I think it looks more appetizing that way.
8.
Sprinkle the potatoes with the cheddar cheese. Tent with foil (you don't want it sticking to the cheese, so use toothpicks if necessary to keep the foil off the casserole surface.)
9.
Bake for about 50 minutes, or until hot and bubbling throughout. Untent the casserole for the last 10-15 minutes. Note: if your casserole looks pale you can run it under the broiler very briefly to get some browning Be careful, it can burn in an instant
Serve hot, topped with the fried onions
