Jason? That's it? Hiding income from the IRS is a crime, you know.
We did $400k our first year and that was with no insurance and no chemicals so it was all profit. Just think of what we could do with ten more crews of illegals.

You do not need to advertise. I suggest you hide all your equipment in a garage, you will have people from as far as 100 miles away knocking on your door. People just don't get it, all you have to do is buy any pressure washer and business will come to you!!! The key is to do the job really really fast, if the quality of your work isn't so good that's ok, the customer will have to call you again and then you charge him another time. This is the easiest business to run in the world. If you really want to make some good money, try washing decks at 1/2 million dollar homes...these customers have money to burn!!! Again remeber speed is key....after your second year you can retire down to the Caribbean like me and your business will be on auto pilot making you money while you are on the beach sipping your pina coladas and rapping to the fine ladies!!! Welcome aboard, you are on your way to a great start!!!

What a bunch of smart a**** .
There are a wide variety of guys that are on this board, and many of them have their own specialties. Some do houses, some do decks, some do decks and houses. SOme do concrete, some specialize in just doing restaurants. Some do fleets. I do a variety of htings for a particular type of customer. It just all depends. There are also a variety of different income levels. Some are happy making a grand or two extra a month as a part time job. Some are workign as owner operators and making 50-60k and there are some people on these boards that are netting a quarter million or more a year.
It all depends onhow hard you want to work, how hard you sell, and if you want to deal with employees.

LOL, Scott you must be a Democrat with an answer like that
Talk about vague. ....To answer you question, I've had jobs where I've made nearly $500 per hour.....so multiply that out times 40hrs a week, 52 weeks a year. Heck ya, I'm getting rich. Outdoor service businesses tend to be where the REAL paper can be made. ....and you get rain days off, the whole winter, water restrictions, etc......but like I said, I've made $500 an hour before, go try that at your day job.

Shoot, I have had jobs where I made a thousand dollars an hour. That does not mean it is ordinary. As for the vague answer, it was a vague question. And for calling me a democrat, you are no longer my friend.

LOL, ...I retract the 'democrat' remark. I must have been in a really foul mood to ever insult someone so deeply
....I's being sarcastic as well, I wish everyone would just get it in their head that for the most part, a hands-on service business is going to pay in the same ballpark. Anything beyond "a good living" will only come through growth or finding something unique to sell. I just think that at the end of the day, two service businesses that have similar start-up costs will come out about the same.
