Considering the pressure
washing business?
If so, you will find this site
most enlightening and worth your time to read.

Most people consider the pressure washing business because
it is conceived to be business that can be started with a very low investment.
Simply buy a $500 pressure washer at Home Depot plus some bleach and detergent; throw
it in the back of your pick up, and PRESTO, you're in business.
Because one can get into this business with a relatively
low investment you will be facing a lot of competition.
Don't be discouraged.
By working smart,
you can bury competition and make a lot of money. Below is a story of
how we made money in the power washing business
In 1993 my buddy, Dick, was making a decent living doing power washing work,
while I was in the air conditioning and heating business. Since he was not
very mechanically inclined, he kept bugging me about helping him come up with a
method to clean roof stains without using high pressure. Compared to the
HVAC business, pressure washing did no seem very challenging to me, thus I could not
get interested. One day, after his numerous pleads I broke
down agreed to look into his business. Dick had an open trailer, a pretty
good pressure washer (13 HP, 3400 PSI) 200 feet of hose coiled up, a five gallon
sheetrock bucket for mixing chemicals, a case of Clorox, some Dawn detergent and
a couple ladders. This was his entire business.
I felt like his idea about the roof cleaning business
offered the most promise if any money was to be made, as no one was doing it. I
couldn't even find any info on the new information highway (internet). My
interest grew when Dick announced he had heard through a supplier that a
company in Georgia was producing a chemical that would clean roofs with garden
hose pressure. We promptly ordered a case and found the chemical did an
excellent job cleaning but garden hose pressure was not going to do the job, at
least in a timely manner. All we needed was a little bit more pressure but
nothing like the pressure produced by a power washer. We went to our local agriculture supply store and
began buying pumps, motors, tanks and nozzles and put together a machine we
thought would clean a roof. We must have spent $5,000 on pumps, regulators
and other contraptions until we finally got it right.
While designing a rig to clean
roofs we incorporated labor and chemical savings features that allowed us to
clean most homes siding, roofs and decks in a
fraction the time using half the
chemicals
. This translates mathematically to earning more money per hour
with less chemical cost than our competitors. However, our biggest money maker
was simply being able to advertise
LOW-PRESSURE
CLEANING
NO
DAMAGING HIGH PRESSURE USED
"It's
in the process, not the pressure"


"Did we make any
money?"
The first year we did
$50,000, not bad for being the new kid on the block. By the third year, our
one
trailer was doing $120,000.

What was our secret?
Before I go any further with this story, I want to talk
about
high
pressure cleaning. The only places for high pressure
(I'm talking about 1500 psi or greater) is for popping bubblegum off of
sidewalks and cleaning mud off heavy equipment. I recently had my house
painted, and part of the deal was having the painter clean the house before
painting. I recently had a hernia operation so I let the painter do the
cleaning. He arrived at my home with a pressure washer, 50 foot of hose an
8 foot extension wand and 33 gallons of Clorox, you heard me right, 33 gallons
(He
ended up only using 25 gallons).
My house is only 2500 square feet. I
asked, "Where is the detergent"? He replied, "Don't need any, been doing
this for 20 years and when I get through your house will be clean as a whistle
and the treated steps will look like they just came from the lumberyard".
I knew I was in trouble now, but I thought this would be a great opportunity to
get some good pictures to put in this article. Below are the res
ults.
Sure glad I didn't have vinyl siding or it could have been blown off

The good news is the paint
job came out great.
The reason I'm tell'n you all this is
because you can go broke repairing the damage caused by using high pressure and
misusing chemicals. Secondly, if the painter used the system I'm about to show
you, he could have washed my house with less than 2 gallons of Clorox and 1/3
gallon of detergent. Thus reducing his chemical cost from over $50 to
about $10. That's like making $80 extra a day if just two house were washed.
Our system is successful because we have
developed a process that combines the right equipment, the right setup, and the
right chemical delivery system with the right chemicals. The result is an
exterior cleaning rig that cleans better, faster, safer and at less cost than
any of your competitor's.
You will learn where to purchase cleaning chemicals
displaying your company name and logo on the label. Your company will look
much more professional and your competitors will wonder what your using.
Not to mention, you can
save
a bundle on chemical purchases
.
(FYI we do not offer chemicals or equipment,
nor have any financial interest in them, but we will tell you where to get these
items)





Our system safely cleans
siding-decks-roofs-concrete
Our competitors are scared of roofs, we aren't!
Another milestone in our business was the development of
our
"
ROOF GITTER"
,
which enables us to clean the steep pitched roofs that
are not safe to walk on. This accessory gave us a leg up on the
competition and made us so profitable we kept it off
the market for years. A local competitor has attempted to copy it and
sells it nationwide, but believe me, its effectiveness is nowhere near that of
the
"ROOF GITTER".
I'll show you how to make one
GLOEOCAPSA MAGMA!
The plague that infects homes in
nearly
80 percent of the United States
Gloeocapsa Magma
is a species of algae
that causes black streaking and discoloration on
asphalt/fiberglass shingles. If left untreated this algae will
feed and grow until the entire roof becomes infested. Meanwhile,
the roof becomes unsightly, and the algae covers the roof
granules, which leaves the shingles unprotected from the sun's UV
rays. Without UV protection, a roof will experience premature
failure. The algae has migrated form Florida and the Gulf Coast
are to cover about 80% of the nation.



Since you've found this site, I assume you are
looking for a business that can be run either full or part time and produces
a pretty decent income. If so, read what a veteran roof cleanerhas to
say about it.

First
, roof cleaning is
one of the few businesses that is not floating in a sea of competition, there ain't
non, or at least there's very little. Take a look around town; you'll
see thousands of roofs needing cleaned and nobody cleaning them. Most people
don't even know their roof can be cleaned; they think it needs replaced.
Most pressure washing guys are afraid to get on a roof. And even if
you have competition, there's enough roofs to go around for everybody. We
rarely run into the other guy.
Second
, the investment needed to get into the business is nil compared to
your return on investment (ROI). It's entirely possible and common
place to earn $75,000 or more on an initial investment of $5000 in equipment
and
chemicals.
Third
, since roof cleaning may be new in your area you
will have to be persistent to make your first sale. But, once you get a few jobs under your belt,
pictures taken and the neighbors gawking at the roof you just cleaned, you
are on your way to seeing your business snowball.
Fourth
, roof cleaning is not difficult, but its not as
simple as the chemical web sites pitch. There are companies pitching chemicals that will clean roofs simply by spraying it on the
roof and letting mother nature rinse it clean. That's fine, if you want
to wait six months to get your money. No matter what they tell you,
the roof will have to be rinsed off after applying chemicals, and if you
think a garden hose with street pressure will do the job, you are absolutely
correct, if you have a week to spend rinsing. Fact is, YOU WILL NEED SOME
PRESSURE GREATER THAN STREET PRESSURE if you expect to finish the job in a
timely manner. Therefore you will have to modify your pressure washer
so it will produce just enough pressure to rinse but not damage the
shingles.

Why house water pressure is insufficient
It takes .433 lbs. of water pressure to raise water 1 ft.. If
your cleaning the roof of a two story home, the roof will likely be 24
to 32 feet high. This height translates into a pressure lose of 10
to 14 psi. If the water pressure at the street level is 40 psi
then the pressure at the roof top will only be 26 to 30 psi, which is
not much pressure for rinsing

Fifth
, there seems to be a lively and sometimes heated discussion over
which chemicals are best for cleaning roofs. This author, doesn't give
a hoot. Both have pros and cons. I haven't seen any roofs ruined
with either chemical. I am somewhat partial toward sodium hydroxide
because it seems to do a better job of restoring the roof colors, and is
easier on plants and shrubs, however it
is more time consuming to rinse. As for making your own
chemicals, you are welcome to experiment all you wish, but we've found it
ends up costing more. Besides, I like the idea of using the other guys
product liability insurance and MSDS sheets. If you're concerned about
the other guy finding out what chemicals you are using, we will tell you
where to get them privately labeled
Below, I am offering my book that gives step-by-step instructions for
setting up a low-pressure cleaning rig and building a
"Roof Gitter"
for cleaning steep roofs. You may be asking yourself, "Why
should I pay this guy for his book." You don't, but if someone offered
to give me all the information offered below, before I
attempted to build our rig, I could have saved $1000's and 100's of hours on
research and development
