While I was in Knoxville, Johnny and Parke went to Home Depot and rented a power washer. Josh and Parke spent the day switching off using it to wash the brick, exterior trim, cinder blocks, walkway, and the front landing. This was done after a small ditch was dug around the whole house (just a few inches deep and wide). They dug it so that when the house is painted, it will be evenly painted all the way to the ground. Once it is completely painted, the ditch will be filled back in and the paint will cover all the way to the ground.
Once the exterior trim was finished being power washed, whoever wasn't using the power washer started scraping the trim. Although it had been scraped once, it needed to be scraped again once the power washer had loosened more paint.
Johnny worked mostly inside, well besides for the beginning of the day where he prepared the house for being pressure washed. He put up hardie backer (concrete board) in the shower and helped Josh and Parke whenever they needed it.
