what to use? A gas power pressure washer or electric
​Here it goes, I can tell you, that I have worked in the "Kitchen Exhaust" cleaning business since I was a teenager, starting with my uncle's company which was started in 1966, so needless to say I have been around, I have done every job there is in cleaning from the floor to the roof, was always looking for ways to make it easier, how I hated them old days with steel wool, rags, chemical and don't forget the Sheila shine, as my uncle would tell me, that is the most important part of the job.
So needles to say, I was so happy when I came up with the idea in 1987 to start using a pressure washer, it was hard to convince my uncle to change, as he was set in his ways, but convinced him, that was the way to go, also to had to persuade our customers whew them where the days.
As it is the norm today to use pressure washers, so which way to go, which one to use, I always thought the bigger the better, and wanted to impress our customers, we were sophisticated, but it doesn't mean a thing, if you don't do the job right, in some cases, you will need a hot powered pressure washer, but the majority of the time, you will be able to use the electric pressure washer, I am talking about a custom made one, which will cost you about 1,500.00 to 1,800.00, capable of 2,500 PSI, and can run 200 degree water thru it.
Much easier to carry and move, think of the space you will save, and the gas on top of that, just so many benefits to using a electric pressure washer, I could list them all, but if you are in the business, you will understand me.
But once again I will reiterate, no matter if you do by hand or pressure washer, you must do the job right to the best of your ability, no short cuts.

Squeeky Clean on Brushing Gutters
We Always hand scrub the outside of the gutters and downspouts during a house wash. We perform a lot of gutter cleaning in the early spring and fall' date=' and never scrub the inside. We remove by hand the debris and clear out blockages. When possible, we also hydro-test downspouts. A penny test or a rock test is effective as well if the customer's garden hose isn't long enough to hydro-test.Here is a recent video we produced on our gutter cleaning and gutter guard system. Let us know what you think!
