5 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Power Washing Service

You’ve seen those satisfying before and after power washing pictures online. You’re ready for your home or business to look more like the “after” photo.

But when it comes to actually hiring a power washing service, where do you start?

The wrong company could damage your walls, windows, or pavement, or they could even create legal issues for you if something were to go wrong during the power washing session.
​
If you want to find legitimate power washers you can trust, there are a few questions to ask before you even let them onto your property.

1. Can I See Some References?

Before you allow any professional to alter your home or business in any way, it’s critical to ask if they have any proof, testimonials, references, and reviews they can show you. This includes any details that speak to their level of experience and knowledge of power washing.

You might be able to get before and after photos from places they’ve worked on in the past, or you might be able to check out their online testimonials to see what previous clients thought of their service.

2. What’s Your Process?

Ask about the steps the cleaners will follow and how long it will take them to do the job. Ask if they have different strategies for washing different houses, and what kinds of power washing tools they use for different aspects of the job.

You might find the answers interesting, as pressure washing isn’t as easy a task as many people believe. The responses will help you understand the company’s process, and it can help you determine whether the technician is considerate of delicate parts of your home or business rather than turning their tools full blast.

3. How Do You Handle Your Pricing?

Hiring a power washing service should feel like a luxury. However, this kind of luxury should come without breaking the bank! On average, power washing costs between $100 and $500 depending on the size and type of area being cleaned.

However, the best power washing service may be able to work with you to offer cleaning within your budget. Call in advance to discuss pricing and options to be sure they’re the right fit for you.

4. Is All Your Paperwork in Order?

As we’ve mentioned, pressure washing can be dangerous—and that’s true even for people who have been professionally trained to do so. For this reason, it’s important to ask about the company’s license and insurance.

Finding a company that’s licensed and insured gives you a little extra peace of mind knowing any service technician injured on your property will be well cared for.

5. Can You Work With My Schedule?

The right company will know that you’re busy, and they’ll be willing to offer flexible scheduling around your hectic schedule or your hours of operation. Whether you need commercial or residential service, a good company will work with you to find a time that fits your needs.
