Question

We were talking about p/w at work and people who p/w homes for a living.

How long have people been paying to have there homes washed?

My guess is some where around 25 years.

I looked it up on the puter(webtv)but couldn't find a anawer,does anyone know?

I have no idea when this first started but I started to see it myself around the mid eighties in Minneapolis. After I moved to NC in the 90's, I didn't see it at all while there. After moving to South Florida, Any and all service industires are HUGE here. There is plenty of disposable cash and people who don't do for themselves, if they can pay someone to do it for them. Can't say as I blame them, in the summer here it is so hot/humid outside, no one wants to be out in it. (Some of us actually don't mind the heat or at least can tolerate it).

I used to wash houses and mobile homes in FL in the '70's. Started out with a 5 hp, 4 gpm, 1,000 psi unit and thought I was all that when I got a 4 gpm, 2,000 psi electric start Briggs 11 hp. Used to get $29.95 for a singlewide and could knock it out in 20 min.
