Help/advice needed

[moonpig]

Hey guys I'm looking into adding power washing onto my services but don't know anything about it really what's the kind of starter setup and what's the pricing ect that I could charge. (I know it's what ever you can get away with) but where to start ? Any help advice would be great thanks

I am fairly new to the pressure washing game. I picked up a cheap one from aldi. £200. I have earned that back straight away. I done a bit of research on how much to charge and you just need to think about how long it will take, how much sand you will need and how long putting that down will take and also how much of a hassle it it going to be. I got called out last Sunday for the next morning to remove some paint from a wall. Took me 4-5 hours with travelling and charged £200. Only a small section. I was home by 1

Ahh nice yeh I like the sound of that sort of money so do you need to resand every time. ? What's the score with using Chems too ? I just like toys men and there toys haha.

The guy I was working with that day bought some brick and patio cleaner to get the paint off. But for drives etc, I don't think it's necessary dependant on the type of machine you get and how powerful it is. Hopefully some others on here with a bit more experience will be able to enlighten you on that subject /emoticons/smile.png

Borrowed a pressure washer today off a mate think it was a Honda gx240 with the standard lance and nozzle and had a bit of a epic job started at 10 and didn't finish untill 4 was really wishing for a more powerful motor and turbo nozzle but done the job just about fine I would have liked it to come up a bit cleaner but custy was over the moon with it so just went along with it they even gave me a 50 tip boom really wanting my own now and get me some more of that work.
