Power Washing and Roof Cleaning Forum

Tayib, good to see you made it here. Take some time to use the search button, there might be answers to your questions. Beyond that, we are here to answer your questions. We all started as you are.

Many of us have started small,..very small in fact. And a few of us didn't have the benefit of any type of model to get direction from. Be very glad you have the information you have in front of you for the reading. Asking questions is good,..but reading is way better,..you'll get answers to questions you didn't know you had.

Small is ok,..but a few tools should be "required" to even get started. I could go through a whole list of things I would now consider as minimum,..but then I'd sound like I was Preaching .

*But get 200' of High pressure hose so you aren't dragging the machine around. 50' is ok for working at home,...but it isn't as much as it may seem once you get on a job.

Learn the various cleaners and which side of the PH scale they're on.  And to go further,.... understand how different dirt reacts to these cleaners. There isn't a one size fits all by no means.  The knowledge of this will enable you to start small,.yet make your work with less equipment much easier.

For instance,..red clay stains and rust need negative PH and it's the chemical reaction that works not pressure,...as is with most of our work,..the water is mostly for rinsing,..not cleaning. Except when concrete is done,..then you need some PSI to do the job more efficiently.
