I have been in business for 4 years and have done some small apartment breezeways but nothing on the scale of my current bid. I am looking for advice on pricing and any information that may be helpful for cleaning the breezeways. There are a total of 30 breezeways that are 3 stories each. The length of each breezeway is exactly 70 feet. On the second and third floor the flooring is trex and the first floor is concrete. The walls are hardie board. I have an idea what I was thinking on the price but I don’t know exactly how to gauge how long each breezeway will take me as I’ve only done a handful of breezeways. I have 2 pressure washers on my truck one is an 8gpm hot water and the other is a 4 gpm cold water.
He’s going to tell them 30 minutes per, about $100-125 each…

I presented the estimate today but just curious what others with more experience in this area would charge. I figure each building will take between 3 to 4 hours to clean the 2 breezeways (3 story).
I bid jobs like this by sq ft, not time it takes. I’d say $.20-$.25/sq ft. Measure the breezeway and multiply sq ft by the rate you want to charge for the jobs difficulty. Then work efficiently to make the most return on your time.
Cover outlets, don’t spray directly under peoples doors… Good luck!
Hey what’s the best most efficient way to keep the water from having minimal chance of getting under ppls doorways? Any kind of blocking type items or ?
And when post treating in this situation , aside from cones and signs is there anything else you can do since obv you can’t tell ppl to not leave their house.
How did it turn out btw? Any advice from random problems?
Also asked in a diff thread but …
I broke my buildings into sections (large ones) would it be horribly inefficient to rinse and surface clean then post treat section by section to avoid traffic messing up the post treat ? Like is it always rinse and surf clean the whole building and then post treat the whole building?
And when moving down floors do you just turn off the ball valve, disatratch the hose from the cleaner, then hand the hose down and reattach on the next floor down? Or do you have to go shut the machine off bc of de pressurizing and all of that?
Sry if that’s a complete noob question but I have to ask to know and sometimes I just confuse myself.
