Do you mainly do house washing?
Forum wonât let me just reply with emojis. But if I could, it wouldâve just been:
I mainly do window cleaning. But the power washing I do, is all house washing.
Window cleaning, an average day for me is somewhere between $450 and $700.
But when Iâm washing houses, if Iâve made less than $1000, itâs because it was a short day 
But Iâm in the NorthEast, and prices are particularly good around here. Our pw season is also rather short.
There seems to be an âalgae beltâ where house washing is a gold mine. Texas to Florida? I am not sure how far north?. Here in the NW it is less prevalent. I guess the rain keeps the algae somewhat at bay. It is common not to wash a house for 10 plus years.
I unfortunately do a car lot (just as a time filler and free advertising ) I normally just spray them down and have a helper dry them off with a back pack blower. It seems to work and not worth the money to do anything more. The GM of the lot said heâs never seen anyone dry a car with a back pack blower, and he was impressed. Ha

I live outside of Portland Oregon which according to the map is a heavy area. That doesnât seem to be the case unless the building is under a canopy of trees.
Youâve got plenty of mildew and moss up there. I see guys post pics of roofs theyâre cleaning and the whole thing is moss.
Well, most days I drive around doing IT work. If a building is under trees thereâs a good chance itâll have issues. Roofs definitely get moss and lichen growth. Concrete gets a black growth and sometimes white lichen(?). But houses in general? For the most part no. I am sure there are exceptions. I came across this one A frame house that has moss 2" thick on the roof!
Ive seen grass and weeds growing on roofs around here before but i live in the south you never know what your going to see
