After investigating a NUMBER of problems, I discovered that although this company uses what they adverstise as being "Enviromentally Friendly" products they IN FACT use Sodium Hydroxide which is LYE!

Dead grass--dead plants--fortunately no dead family members.

Consumers are told you could DRINK what they spray on!
After 8-10 months the decks look WORSE than they did before the expensive treatment.

After the sale custmoer service is invisable...cannot even get a return phone call let alone action.
My advice---call "the others"--they've GOT TO BE better!

AUTHOR: Dave - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, August 02, 2006

BBB Definition:

satisfactory record - A business identified in our report as satisfactory has, based on Bureau files, been in business for at least one year, and has voluntarily provided the Bureau with all information requested about the business and its product or service.

Complaints are also generally typical of what might be expected for this type of business. A business stated to be satisfactory has not been the subject of any recent law enforcement actions concerning its dealings with the public. If the business has been contacted by the BBB about its advertising or selling claims, it has modified or substantiated its practices to the Bureau's satisfaction. In addition, the BBB has a clear understanding of the company's business, and the business is not in an industry which has raised significant marketplace concerns.

ANOTHER Falsehood

AUTHOR: Ted - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, July 31, 2006

Nice catch Ralph.

Dave "the Real Deal" suggests checking the BBB for your state to confirm that Sealmaxx is a member with a good track record, and voila.., and you CAUGHT HIM in another Sealmaxx "mistatement" when you discovered they are NOT a even member.
See what I meant?
Their claims carry no weight whatsoever.
All promises with no backup.

PLEASE NOTE: If you find they have become a member, check the date they enrolled. Now that you've caught them lying, they may actually join.

Sic 'em Tiger!!

Anybody else reading this have a bad experience with these thiefs??

BBB??

POSTED: Monday, July 31, 2006

Hello "Real Deal",

I took up your advice and checked the BBB site for Illinois.
You are NOT LISTED. I hope that's not an example of "Real Deal".

Perhaps you should join (IF they'll allow you to)!

Simply not true

AUTHOR: Dave - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, July 31, 2006

The comments posted by Ted & T of Addison, Illinois are simply not true. What you have here is a poor excuse of a sales person that Sealmaxx fired for lack of professionalism, integrity, not maturity. If anyone has issues with our service or questions on our products please call us at 888-668-6447 or look us up online at www.Sealmaxx.com. I also suggest you review our Better Business Bureau data for your state. We have a solid record of performance and taking care of our customers. We have professionally cleaned and sealed thousands of decks nationwide and would like to do yours.

Sincerely,
SealMaxx, The Real Deal.

If you are treating a WOOD deck, why didn't you

AUTHOR: Thomas - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, July 28, 2006

check Consumer Reports? They do 1r/3yr/5yr durability tests on stains and paints for wooden decks. Check your Library and/or join CR online. CR is pretty reasonable..... and honest.

If you are discussing some other kind of deck, then what?
