    DECK WASSIHG vs. TRUCK WASHINGvs. HOOD CLEANING

    Whiplash, My advice stay away from deck restorations. We offered this service for 7 out the 11 years in business. When we dropped the deck refinishing our profits jumped 30%. No joke!!! Do you want to own a painting business or a pressure washing business? Hood cleaning is a great section to...

    "Pressure Washer" vs. "Power Washer"

    When we first started we did tons of advertising in the phonebook. (not anymore) We always had TWO large ads for both pressure washing and power washing. I hated to do it but other compaines were and we wanted to stand out too. Glad to be on to bigger and better methods of getting new customers.

    Pressure Washing in Las Vegas

    Nice Pics, I purchased a small tripod that I keep in the truck for moments like this. The tripod would allow you to get all the lights in the background to stay sharp and saturated. Great job though. i'm sure it was cool to clean in that area.

    x jet ?

    We use them on occasion to reach the top of some of these McMansions here in Boston. They don't seem to last very long. I purchased four of them at the beginning of last season. All of them are beat up. I assume my guys are not the easiest on them though. Down stream is the way to go for the...
