first deck bid

[Home Serve 14]

Hello from Central MO:

My son and I have been doing exterior construction/remodeling for several years and are considering adding pressure cleaning to our services. Live in Fayette, MO about 30 miles NW of Columbia.

We have previous siding/window customer with an old moldy deck that we would like to clean for her and have bidding questions. It is a 15x20 deck with 4 steps and a puny 2' tall railing with 1x2s every foot or so. I tried to get a photo today but camera out of batts. On a scale for dirty I would give it a 8.5. I'm not sure if it has been sealed before and I am not certain how to find out since these folks just moved in a couple months ago.

We don't really have our routine down yet but plan to reasearch on the site here and contact chemical folks for help.

Also have two newer decks that we built for a lady this season that we want to clean/seal. (smaller decks probably about 12x12 each).

If you have some feedback for me on pricing these two types of decks would appreciate it!! (New and old/moldy)

Thank you for your help, I've learned a lot from this forum already

Does anyone have some bidding information on the decks described above?? I don't think there is sealer on the older one, just mold. Just have to clean and seal, no stripping. Ideas?

Thanks,

David

The 15'x20' anywhere between $700 and $1200 is a median range.

~500sf at $2.25/sf I'd be near $1,125 cleaned and sealed.
