Thank you!
So True 👍🏾
I could say, Austin has done a shit ton for this industry from these TH-cam videos, he gives away such great information. There’s a lot of guys that I watch that do a good job, I think Austin is the most relatable.
@@josephbailey7408 thank you so much!!
@@AustinDavis24 of course bro no problem, keep it up. Before I go searching through all your vids, did you ever do one on what kind of insurance you use about how much you spend? I’m only asking because my general liability insurance is pretty cheap so I’m feeling like I might not have the right stuff.
Been watching you since last year man. I bought my equipment last year to start about a month later ended up herniating 2 discs in my back! I’m healed up now for the most part ready to see where this year goes hopefully no herniated discs 🤣. Thanks for all the great information and advice Austin!
Damn man! Goodluck
I'm sorry you had to go through that pain from herniated discs just when you're getting your new business going and what a let down it must have been to have to put it on hold until you healed up, if you healed up cause
here's no real guarantee that you could even do that work again. And brother I know that feeling of uncertainty and doubt as to whether you can make it back and it's a hard time for sure but making it through it makes you that much stronger.
Good, honest information Austin thank you!!
Nice thanks for this valuable info!
I literally ran into washing a slate roof for the first time on Saturday n omg i dont think i even made any money because of how much chemical i had to use. I was washing some spots over like 4 or 5 times... a minimum of 3 times each part of the roof.... but now i know....
Thank you so much! Your breakdown on these topics is second to none. I appreciate your input . 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks for information i see a lot videos but never like this. I try start my business i like do this.
Great info man love your page I’m just starting out this is a huge help
Awesome!
Great video! Here in the Upstate of South Carolina, it’s hard to get .10 cents a square foot for house washing. So many people doing it and doing it wrong.
Pain in the ass factor ✅😂
Thanks for dropping that knowledge
Do you recommend purple degreaser from Lowe’s?
Ha...try charging $300 per hour in Florida, charging to a Florida Homeowner. Lucky to get $75 for driveway, $250 for a roof, $175 for a pool area & screen cage. These are complete job prices, forget about charging by the hour, what ever how many hours it takes, lucky to even get those flat fees.
Maybe for you. Not for me
Out here in Silicon Valley California pressure washers charge around $1,000+ for a roof soft wash on a 2500 sqft home. Some get away with $2,000+
Which square foot do you use to calculate? Is this the total structure square foot or the square foot interior you typically see on a Zillow listing?
is this wall sqft or sqft of the floor plan
Hey Mr Davis, my names Drew and I’m 17 and i have been pressure washing driveways. I don’t have a license of LLC yet but was just wondering if I don’t have a whole set up like yours, how could I pretreat a driveway? Could I just use a bucket or some sort. Just starting off but thanks if you respond. I subscribed to you G.
You could use a backpack pump sprayer to pre-treat the driveway
How would you price 143 units 12 buildings 4556 perimeter and 63863 surface area with matching car ports and 2600 ft of walk paths 😂 in California too the bid I put out was 23,000 dollars does that sounds wrong ? Becuase I’ve never had this big of a job
What do you mean when you say 2500 square feet? Have you estimated the actual square footage of the surface to be cleaned, or is it the amount of square footage under roof, or is it the square footage of the interior of the home? Does it make a difference? I'm getting a lot of pushback on $600 quotes for jobs that take me about an hour. Thanks
I’m talking about the square footage of the actual home. You can Google the address and look at a real estate listing for the home and you can see the square footage. That’s what everyone in industry uses. Yeah if it takes you an hour, $600 is too much money. I would evaluate what you need to make per hour in order to be profitable and charge that.
Hey do you have a videos about the license’s that you need to start a pressure washing business?
Or in your course?
Yes. We talk about what you need. Most places don’t require a license though
Great video Austin, I'm out in the Desert 🌵and we don't have organic growth and I'm not sure if using cleaning agents is necessary so I'm not sure what to charge. Would .15 cent per Sqft be reasonable for the industry when not using chem. What products would you recommend to clean just dirt on a house or SH is still best?
I live in the desert as well. No SH is needed if there is no organic growth. We do however have lots of oxidation on our homes. I typically use Cleansol BC when doing my house washes. Hope this helps.
@@EastValleyPowerWash Hi, that would pull lots of oxidation off. Do you charge extra? I'm looking to just clean the dirt on the walls, I would like to avoid dealing with oxidation if I can. Please advise. Ty!
@@vcash1112 I upsell quite a bit of my house washes to include Oxidation removal. If not I personally still use a little bit of surfactant. It provides a good smell and it’s always the first thing a customer says when we are doing the final walk around “it’s smells so clean too” 😉.
@@vcash1112 I charge 18-35 cents sqft. Obviously on the higher end for oxidation removal. I also charge more for 2 story homes.
@@EastValleyPowerWashwhat part of az are you in ? I’m building a trailer right now any tips ? Also what do you use the most degreasers and surfactants on house washes ?
This was a great video and super helpful. Follow-up question, when you present the invoice to the potential customer, how do you line item “the pain in the @ss” houses or jobs?
lol! You don’t need to exactly line item that. I would just find out what the math is on the price per square foot for the new total price you want to send the customer and tell him that’s the price per square foot for this particular house.
@@AustinDavis24 thanks! That makes sense and what I was thinking. I’m about to pull the trigger and get your course. Excited to launch this year, after 10 months of soaking up content.
@@ColinHaas80 awesome let’s go!!!
@@AustinDavis24 hey, just went to sign up and it’s saying the page isn’t working.
@@ColinHaas80 hey can you DM me on Instagram? I’ll help figure out what’s going on
Greetings,
I must commend your design for the window cleaning business's t-shirts; it's quite appealing. It practically beckons customers to make a purchase. May I inquire where you had it designed?
Finprint.com. Tell them i sent you!
Hey what’s a normal price for general reliability insurance. I’ve been quoted for $600 but that seems high
That’s very high. You should be able to call up some companies and get quotes from $150-$300 a month.
If you’re paying that much you need a new guy. I do HVAC, refrigeration, cooking equipment repair, ice machines etc. 99% commercial. 700per year. I have 2mil in coverage.
I’m in Waco, Texas for reference.
I try the website and it keeps saying. This page isn't working
Yes this just happened. The web just started having some bugs. We’re going to have it back up and running tomorrow so check it then! Thanks!
It’s working now
I got the course! Thanks Austin!👍🏽
@@victorescobedo9172 sweet!
Hey Austin, I am in the austin area, how realistic would it be to get some irl help in the form of me shadowing for a day or 2. of course we could come to an agreement on $ since no ones time is free.
I think it’s realistic!
You should see what these guys in Florida are doing. They’re doing a whole roof wash, driveway and house wash for $250
That’s criminal
They don’t last. They’re idiots (I live in Orlando FL)
I'm in Central FL(Tampa area)...
1) none of my customers would hire them. They understand that price doesn't sound right.
2) that co. Won't last charging those prices. You won't be able to maintenance/fix your equipment like that. They just can't get enough work to make enough money that way.
3) those are the new customers I get.... 650 for my roof tarnations I paid 300 last time. Right, sir number 1 George W bush was president then. The economy has changes drastically. Number 2 that guys phone doesn't work anymore that's why you called me. I've been around over a decade let me be the last co. You need to hire. You like to support a local hard working business right? You like to have you property taken care the right way for a fair price right? Awesome I have next Tuesday or friday available which works best for you?
4) stop worrying about anyone else and what they do and focus on what you want to do, make a plan, and take action.
$15,000 trees!!!!!???? Good grief. Did you just place tarps over them?
Yes we did! Thin painter plastic tarp
Hey Austin, quick question! You had mentioned in another video that your business made $250k in a year. Is that Revenue or Profits?
Im just curious because for your knowledge, experience, and 5+ years in business, I would expect much more than 250k revenue. I mean you also bought out another company in your area.
I am 2 years into my pressure washing business, and I’m set to do $300k top line this year.
Not trying to speak bad, you’ve done really amazing for yourself and it’s really impressive. I am just curious about the numbers you’re doing.
Thanks!
What’s up my man! Yea look I’m not in competition with anyone nor care to be the highest grossing business. I’m a 1-2 man crew and being a 1-2 man crew doing that revenue is actually pretty damn good. I could scale past that and hire but right now it’s not of interest as I’m focusing on building the channel. People always ask me, “Austin how come you don’t have multiple trucks”…. Who says I have to?? I run a pretty lean and profitable ship as it sits. This year will probably do close to $300 or more as a 1-2 man business. I’m well aware that there are people out there who have done it quicker then I have and full kudos to them.
Dosent mean I can’t teach someone how to fish because I’m not a million dollar business. I can still teach people how to go out there and get theirs.
@@AustinDavis24 Thanks for the response, you answered my question and explained everything. I often find myself doubting myself and my business because the numbers add up to crazy things and I just have such a hard time believing it’s possible to achieve those results. I don’t come from a lot of money so having a lot of money is like a foreign concept to me. Thank you for all the videos and information you give to us, you were the very first channel I started watching before I started my business. So thank you for leading me in the right direction and helping me so I could take care of my family. Part of my success in this business is because of you.
If they have $15000+ worth of plants, they can afford the $1200 for extra care and attention around said plants. Those are usually the cheapest clients who try to stiff you as well though...
Sometimes you bid super high if you know the client is going to be a major PITA. Win-win for you because you either don't have to deal with that client or get paid extremely well to do so LOL
Something is wrong with the website
Hey! It works for me and everyone else. Try refreshing the page. Or you can DM me on Instagram and I can help you. Austin_davis23
It’s working now. 🤷🏽♂️
I’ll be signing up soon!
Awesome!@@BlackSheepEvents

First 😎
You really said “ you probably don’t have GL insurance and that’s ok” 🤯 that’s what’s wrong with this industry. You shouldn’t touch ANYONES property without GL. If you’re too broke for it , keep saving. You should be careful man with the info you spread.
Okay so I said when your first starting out. Obviously when you’re up and running, you should not be operating without insurance. I didn’t have insurance until six months into the business. If everyone that got into business was required to get general liability policy on day. One, most people wouldn’t have started the business because they couldn’t afford it.
You can re word it how you want but at best you said , “I’d get one when I can”. That’s terrible advice man. If you damage someone’s property with no insurance you’re royally screwed. The home owner and their lawyer aren’t going to care that you’re new and couldn’t afford it.
@@rusty.nesvig absolutely I agree.
$300 an hour?..........are you on dope?
No you just have a poor mindset. I been making $600 an hour or more depending on what I am doing
Not at all. I have to be at $200 an hour to be profitable and be able to grow and it sounds like this guy has a larger operation than me. So $300 isn’t unreasonable at all when you have employees, multiple $10k rigs, GL insurance, commercial auto insurance, WC insurance, etc.
