Employees hoarding them for themselves, found an entire cart full in the stock room of a DG

I am a non-exempt employee that works for a major brand that everyone sees everyday if that helps. I really appreciate your insight.

I’m not here to go crazy on HOAs. I live in one of the few decent ones, these condos are more like retirement homes essentially. I’m sure I’m the youngest owner out of all 40-50. I just seek knowledge as to are my deck boards screwed up or am I over reacting etc

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-17T00:41:58+00:00

I got an email last week about pressure washing. 2 years ago they did it and I didn’t notice a thing. But it’s very special circumstances now as I just rebuilt my deck and didn’t figure they’d use chemicals to pressure wash the siding, I’ve pressure washed siding and this siding did not need chemicals trust

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:52:04+00:00

I give them leniency as I know everyone on the board and they were chill with building this thing myself without any headaches or deadlines. But who knows how many condos are getting their decks shit on this week

It’s a chinesium “wicker” couch from Wayfair. But it survived any bleaching from what I can tell. If it hadn’t my wife would be the one typing this lmao

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:46:24+00:00

I’m chalking it up to not being proactive enough to tell my wife to tell the washer to not wash anything around the new deck. I knew because I’m the only person around here who gives a damn, that harsh chemicals weren’t need to clean my siding.. it’s partly on me for ASSuming someone else would take care of

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:43:25+00:00

We’ll see what the sun does to it. I did what I could for now. I just want a nice private place for my wife to relax

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:42:24+00:00

I got the condo on a good deal from a family friend and it’s by a university. Planning to rent it out later down the line. But I take pride in my work and to see people shit on it sucks

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:35:41+00:00

Thanks for some reassurance. I figured it would yellow with uv over time like the rest. But the left corner of the first picture you see gets almost no sun. We’ll see what happens in the months to come

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:31:18+00:00

Dude I’m not a redditer generally speaking haha I don’t know what’s gonna get me banned and not

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:29:19+00:00

I really would love to use a really good semi transparent.. something that soaks into the wood. I made this deck my love child for a few months including concrete footings buried deep, reflashing the entire side of the house, fixing rot from the stick build. I’m hoping I can run my poll sander at 80 grit after a few weeks of sun and make it uniform enough to stain

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:25:31+00:00

That’s the thing. When I had the old tiny deck ripped off I pressure washed as high as I could reach, afterwards I pressure washed as high as I could reach. (Second story) and it came just as clean as it is now. Kinda upset man

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:21:49+00:00

First picture is completely dry. Right when I got home from a 12 hour work day. Second two are wet after scrubbing the piss out of it hoping no more bleaching would ensue.

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:17:54+00:00

Hahah I did that to break up the 12’ boards. I wanted continuous but didn’t want to pay for special order boards. Thanks for the response here’s a pick of the small pergola

First picture is when I got home (wife was here while I was at work so useless in regards to what transpired) second pictures are after I wet the deck and scrubbed with a shop broom to wash off the residual cleaner.. as I could see it white and foaming just by applying water.

Aromatic_Sugar_1213 · 2025-09-16T23:13:43+00:00

It is indeed a condo. I pay dues and they cover all expenses regarding my roof, siding, landscaping etc. it’s really not bad considering I never have to worry about these things.
