  1. Concrete washing & sealing

    to be honest i really dont have that great of equipment but i do have a 20k truck and the equipment to make things possible. Here is how i came about the pricing. washing-.14 per sqft sealing . 15 per sqft i am just using the thompsons sealer it going to cost me 5.5 cent per square for the sealer so i tripped it almost. total for the job. =$1550.00 before taxes does that sound reasonable? it did take us 10 hrs just to wash it but i only have a 3000 and 3.2 gpm pressure washer how does the price sound guys? thanks for all input!
  2. Concrete washing & sealing

    5385 sqft of concrete driveway and sidewalk. never cleaned, 12 years old, trees all around and its pretty dirty! How much would you guys charge for this job in your area for a good customer that gets you a good amount of work? Thats wash and seal. this is residential concrete. thanks for ALL the input. I know theres alot of different prices but what do you guys charge to seal per sqft and what would u charge for this job? thanks in advance!
  3. new to the business and wondering how these prices look? i did a couple decks at these rates and made roughly $85 an hr after supplies. Power wash only-.75 sqft seal only-.80 sqft clean/seal- $1.35 per sqft for dirty surfaces up to 1.75 for mildew/green surfaces. railing -$3.75 per linear ft. this includes spindles and joints. Steps=$4.00 per step single or double benches is by the square ft.

    i used half quart of bleach to 1 gallon of water with a little drop of soap for the vinyl siding house. applied detergents standing on ladder then used 0 degree tip to rinse it off mildew and all looks brand new now! took about 3 hrs and a half!

    for the house it was vinyl. i used 16 oz of bleach to to 1 gallon of water. I used a ladder to apply the water/bleach and a drop of dawn. then i put on my 0 deg nozzle and stood a little way on the ladder and washed it all off pretty easy mildew and all! i done the house in about 3.5 hours! i covered all the plants with a tarp to ensure protection.

  7. Help with pricing

    today I finished up a 20x12 deck with 40 ft of handrail and 5 steps. going back monday to stain it. total charge is $800. Also we pressure washed a 2100 sqft 2 story house no scaffolings just a high pressure nozel and done that in 4 hours and made $550 including the cleaning of the gutters. we used 1 cup of bleach to 10 parts of water for the solvent and it worked great! so today in pressure washing alone with my little 2550 pressure washer made me $1,000 and my landscaping made me $2,300. not too shabby!

    thats the point noone around here offers pressure washing and sure i wouldnt care if you got a few of my full maintenance account for landscaping and lawn maintenance services. ' ' ... and no insurance @ all on power washing why would you need it? once i get a clientell of about 100k per year then ill worry about insurance lol i wouldnt have asked you qustions if i knew you were a girl pro wash lmfao
  9. Help with pricing

    some of you guys are helpful(not many) and some of you are simply plain rude. I do have experience with pressure washing. Im not abandoning my landscaping business for this little pressure washing business trust me this is just something for some extra income im not wanting to get rich from pressure washing. I have 5 workers for landscaping and going to do the pressure washing by myself until i get it going steady. So far i have (2) 2500 sqft vinyl houses to do, 8 decks, and 5 or 6 large concrete driveways, (2) 1,000 sqft patio of pavers. like i said im not trying to get rich but i know i can make an extra 50k per year doing this.
  10. Help with pricing

    after doing some further research on these threads i have come to find out that i am going to charge $1.40 per sqft of wood with stain, where as i am going to apply the stain with a painters roller. i am going to charge $3.00 per linear ft for railing which will include the spindles (no sanding) 3 steps included with the price anything over 3 on steps will be $3.00 per step. is that realistic and profitable for me? thanks

    pressure pro you sure can talk like you know what you are talking about but i do not see any help for me up there from you. I have done some research and find that i am pretty close to what others are charging.
  12. Help with pricing

    here is what i found on some pricing reasearch i have been going by. it says $2.50 per ft for handrails! that seems crazy to me! $0.75 to $2.00 per SqFt., $1.25-$1.50 per SqFt. for the average home. Add $50.00 for stairways (or $10.00 per step) and 2nd story. The Sq Footage is in the floor only, most contractors do not figure the railing separately. Second Method: $1.50 per SqFt. for first story, $1.75 for second story. Clean only: $0.85 per SqFt. Seal only: $0.85 per SqFt. Over 400 SqFt discount 20%, over 1,000 SqFt discount 30%, over 2,000 SqFt discount 40%. Lattice: $0.75 to $0.90 cents per square foot. Handrails: $2.50 to $3.30 per linear foot Undersides: $1.40 per sq. ft. Be sure to include all the square footage, including joists and supports. Sealers will generally cover 100 to 250 SqFt per gallon. Older surfaces may require two applications.
  13. seals/stains

    i youtubed it and looked at some videos. the best i seen and the quickest way was with a wool applicator. the 2nd best i seen was with the air gun then follow along with a painters pad not a roll on brush.

    i understand measuring but whats the point of measuring if you do not know the prices to go by?
  15. good detergent for vinyl

    have a 2500 swft house to do. 1.5 stories (about 18 ft of vinyl tall) what is a good detergent to use so that i dont have to do any scrubbing? also after i spray detergent and let it soak in can i use the high pressure hose and just rinse it off or will i need to get scaffolings and actually use the general spray tip up close? thanks from the noob
