Pressure Washing Prices Update
It can't really be said what you can anticipate to pay for a certain power washing service due to it varying around the country, but here are some things to reflect on and to be aware of.
(1) Reputable pressure washing companies will almost never offer a solid quote over the phone. An experienced contractor knows there are way too many variables that can influence the price from one job to another. The great news is nearly all of them will present a free evaluation and will put a quote in writing so you know precisely what the exterior cleaning project will cost. If a contractor readily quotes you a price over the phone it could be a sign of an unethical company.
You Should Hire the Company that Offers the Lowest Price. Possibly but not always, here are some points to mull over:
(1) The pressure washing prices you see advertised may not be the price you are actually charged. Many home owners have figured out that the low price they saw advertised was only good until the estimate. Then they were bombarded with a variety of ridiculous up-charges.
(2) Some contractors' market approach is to win jobs by being the lowest bidder. They will then cut corners in order to turn a profit.
(3) Stemming from low start up costs, many companies come and go. When first getting started, a lot of companies do not train themselves because pressure washing looks easy and lucrative. So they lack the proper equipment, chemicals, insurance, knowledge, professionalism, and normally will charge a tremendously low price.

Pressure Cleaning Advice
A power washing machine is a fantastic tool and can be exactly what you need to clean up your home's exterior. But pressure washers can harm the surfaces that you clean and even yourself if you aren't very careful.
A pressure cleaning unit takes the pressure from a garden house and boosts the pressure with a special pump. The pump is normally operated by a gasoline engine or sometimes an electric motor. The business end of a pressure washer is the spray wand. You can change the tip or nozzle at the end of the wand to get different spray patterns and pressures.
Be sure to read the owner's manual including all the safety tips and recommendations or you could either harm the pressure washer, yourself or the surfaces you are pressure cleaning. Be sure to wear the proper safety equipment like gloves, ear protection and especially safety glasses. When used safely, a pressure cleaning machine is a great tool for cleaning up your property.
