[@WeberPowerWashing]

i appreciate that my friend, I am trying

[@larrypond2631]

Nice workmanship - good business attitude - you get an A+ (Suggestion watch other power washers on you tube such as sb power washing, keep learning stay humble and can't wait to see more.)

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Yes, thank you ! Going to keep learning 🙏🏼

[@artbennett2869]

Great Job,You had a lot of great information and you have established a great relationship with your customers already.I hope you don t mine if I share a couple of things that will help on your next Commercial Job.I would first let the water run from the building into your tank and check your pressure washer to make sure it s ok to use the water from your tank.If you going to down stream I would use my soap tip to supply my chemical and you wouldn t need the pump sprayer or the ladder.You re doing bricks so let your Chemical soak on that side with no windows.I have several wands and tips I use that will reach 40 ft. from the ground.When you begain your rinse ,I start from the bottom of the building all the way on that side and work my way up to the top.Sometimes the top takes longer but be patient and go over it as much as you have to.The side with the windows,I have a tip 45 degree that use for that stucco above the windows.I also use Windex streak free solution on the windows after I finish my jobs.This can be applied with your chemical injector and soap tip.These are just my experiences that I have faced and works for me.I started out just like you and have missed and made mistakes along the way.So I think you re doing a great job of being transparent.I recently landed a Contract taking care of 21 Commercial properties and this keeps me busy all year round.The work is out there customers are looking for companies that they can trust and depend own.Keep up the good work,you ve got pleanty of work coming your way.Hope this helps.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

[@nandeecastaneda8297]

love the honesty. awesome video I'm in the process of quoting an old dirty brick building right now, definitely insightful. keep up the great work. What size surface cleaner are you using?

[@maxvillanueva4227]

Wow , love the honesty and humility brother👍🏽

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Thanks brotha🙏🏼

[@mikebuggs904]

New subscriber here. Been in it for 4 years and still learning things everyday. Keep up the good work. And i realized that the water pressure in commercial buildings do tend to suck a little bit but i have to seal with it because i don't have a water tank yet.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

welcome mike! thanks for the sub. I am constantly learning too my friend. and yes! it's an oxymoron with commercial water pressure

[@jadeemclerran6760]

Best of luck on the channel

[@WeberPowerWashing]

thank u

[@northjerseykevin3915]

Well done. Great video. I like your style

[@WeberPowerWashing]

thanks my friend

[@ppaton3553]

Sean, Great video and some good lessons as well. Cheers :)

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Thank you my friend!

[@davegardiner8850]

Great job pal, just start using a respirator when you are doing your SH. You are going to kills your lungs!! You will know this with your job as a fireman 🧑‍🚒!! I also do a jet wash business that i started just over a year ago and also like yourself I am a paramedic across the pond in the UK. Keep up the good videos pal, I have now subscribed so will watch the rest of your content and look forward to your new stuff with your 31LPM Honda, very jealous, but I am happy with my 21LPM. 👍👍

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Thank you, Dave! You’re right, it is a dangerous game we play using such high percentages of SH. It’s one of the dark secrets of this business. I really do need to start using some protective equipment. I appreciate you saying that, and your concern thank you brother! - that is so cool! A fellow first responder, youre in good company, my friend. Thanks for the Sub 🙏🏼

[@thatnewkid8203]

Good video man. Appreciate the honesty, definitely some good lessons here. Thanks, keep em coming. Subbed.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Thank you man!!

[@debraholman1811]

Beautiful blue eyes!! 💙

[@marcellasneumann]

Hopefully the price will bring you in more work because it is pretty low for commercial work and the amount of work there . But besides that hows your 4gpm machine working for you.and even with low water pressure doesn't,our machine run off of your buffer tank??

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Yes! Price was competitive, but I really wanted the job. - 4GPM is great, works awesome. Buffer tank is what I run off of, so with bad water supply I can’t keep the buffer tank filled!

[@user-tt8lf3fv1y]

When you said you dont have the best equipment, i forgot your American and so that doesnt mean i have a karcher washer and a patio attachment, it means a full on pickup truck, trailer, water tank, petrol motor powered pressure washer with everythinf 😂 my word we are poor in UK in comparison

[@WeberPowerWashing]

let me rephrase it this way! "not the best equipment, to professionally pressure wash with" - we make do with what we got over here too!!

[@benhayes3565]

Hey bro I’m new to the game and thanks for the info

[@WeberPowerWashing]

of course! thanks for tuning in

[@obg7]

Man you have a great job. Mouth of a sailor but cool start to your channel

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Thank you! I need to work on the mouth

[@barracade24]

Good job, next time up sale him on oxidation removal on that covering over he entrance.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Not a bad idea

[@lsizemo]

I soft washed my vinyl house yesterday. Amazing what you can do to some mildew! I have a little Honda 3700 2.5. I bought the little attschment where depending on which one you have on it'll be a heavy stream or light and then heavy or light with soap. It's so cool. I was pulling 1 oz of Dawn dish soup per gallon of sodium hyperchloride. Just amazing My neighbors fence after a few years is really looking bad and so I sprayed some of that on just a section of it to see what it would look like without using any pressure and it got cleaner but nothing crazy what would your recommendation be cleaning my side of the fence?maybe I need to go over it multiple times with the same technique what were you spraying on the side of the brick commercial building in that little red canister??

[@WeberPowerWashing]

It’s satisfying, isn’t it! For the fence you probably need a higher percentage of the bleach, but you can also do multiple layers and longer dwell times. Up to you!

[@lsizemo]

@@WeberPowerWashing thanks so much I have a pool supply store close to me too so I may go see what they have as far as a higher percentage than the pool essentials 10%. Also the normal wand that comes with most pressure washers is what I have been using how much better do you like the mini gun? and in what instances are you using that?

[@WeberPowerWashing]

@@lsizemo the long wand is absolutely fine, you'll have less recoil with the wand and actually get more reach! the only disadvantage is the weight of it. lot of the commercial guys run the gun (no wand) because its more ergonomical

[@lsizemo]

@@WeberPowerWashing cool. Thank you!!

Don’t let the chems dry on the glass man!

[@ChrisEdmunds-km5lp]

Just come cross your channel i live in the UK just started my own Business and work two jobs like your self. Ive subscribed. doing driveways for now and until i can build up custom and tools to offer other services.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

Welcome, my brother! I’m glad we connected. Let’s learn from each other and figure this game out.🙏🏼 I most definitely don’t know everything, but if I can be of assistance reach out!

[@ChrisEdmunds-km5lp]

@WeberPowerWashing appreciate your kind words and looking forward to your journey.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

@@ChrisEdmunds-km5lp ! - Y’all on the other side of the pond have some ridiculous algae growth!! You gotta share some time lapse work. , the moss and algae on those driveways are unbelievable!!

[@marcellasneumann]

What size surface cleaner are you running

[@WeberPowerWashing]

24” now , I was using a 16” I believe

[@southeastsoftwash4020]

bro that water pressure is weak as hell lol. good job tho

[@WeberPowerWashing]

right?? that's on me for assuming and not checking tho

[@srdjannakalamic5856]

You were way too low for that size of a building for that price. 12 to 1500. Per side. Window cleaning would have been just a little extra not much upsell. You know you're going to mess him up so you might as well charge him to fix it. I'm talking about streaking on the windows. You should invest in a 12 V basic. $350 should I get you going.. I would have 12 v. The whole entire building in an hour or 2. Quick rents. Hit the windows. Outdoor couple hours.. I do appreciate your Patience thinking out of the box. And getting the job done no matter what it takes. That's the most important part of the whole experience

[@WeberPowerWashing]

I like your plan!

[@jojoreynoso9408]

Nice content brotha ease up on the swearing though it's not a good look

[@WeberPowerWashing]

I appreciate the input, for real!

[@anthonywhite9443]

Not trying to be an asshole but with a 4 GPM machine, you don't need a buffer tank. 99% of the time, the water from the bib is fine. It's only an issue if they have well water and their pump is shit. If you wanted to run a buffer tank so you can run the unloader to it, you would do fine with a 15 gallon tank.

[@WeberPowerWashing]

good point! i built this thing with a plan to upgrade later, so i was thinking ahead. Ended up having to upgrade the buffer tank anyway lol
