In today’s breakdown, we’re cleaning a massive church covered in cobwebs and grime—nothing too crazy in terms of organic buildup, but still a solid job. The price tag? Over $3,000 for a single day’s work.
If you’ve ever wondered how pressure washing can provide financial and time freedom, this is the perfect example. The right setup, knowledge, and strategy can help you close high-paying jobs and work on your terms.
The Process: From Prep to Profit
1. Pre-Treatment & Chemical Application
Before we started blasting away dirt, we applied a light coat of muriatic acid for some extra cleaning power. When tackling unknown stains—like the strange rub marks on this church—it’s all about using the right chemical mix.
We hit the stains with Dynamite Degreaser, a strong solution that, when scrubbed in, lifted the marks instantly. Choosing the right chemicals saves time and increases profitability by reducing labor hours.
2. Equipment: The Secret to Speed & Efficiency
Ben, who’s running this job, has invested in high-flow softwash equipment, including a Skunk Valve system that pulls twice the normal chemical mix rate. This setup allows for faster cleaning, cutting the job time down to six hours instead of a full day or more.
- Faster mix ratios = Faster jobs = More profit
- Investing in better equipment leads to higher efficiency
- The right tools help you charge premium prices and complete jobs quickly
If you’re just starting out, this might seem like a huge investment, but the ROI (return on investment) is undeniable.
Why Start a Pressure Washing Business?
Ben started his pressure washing business after working as a nurse during the COVID era. He was tired of long shifts, stress, and having a boss breathing down his neck. Sound familiar?
Starting your own business allows you to:
✅ Control your schedule – No more working for someone else.
✅ Set your prices – Charge high-ticket rates for premium services.
✅ Gain financial freedom – Scale your business on your terms.
✅ Live life on your own time – More family time, vacations, and hobbies.
With the right strategy, you can dictate your future, just like Ben did.
How Much Can You Make?
On this job, after factoring in gas, chemicals, and equipment use, Ben is walking away with $2,800-$2,900 net profit for a single day’s work. Imagine doing this 2-3 times per week—that’s a serious income with minimal overhead compared to other businesses.
What’s the key to success?
- Investing in the right education
- Using the best tools for the job
- Mastering high-ticket sales and efficiency
