I love watching your videos so much! I actually went out and purchased a big pressure cleaner from Lowes, the 4400 PSI one. I purchased the Whisper 20 inch surface cleaner, I have yet to buy a ball valve, the original pressure hose that comes with the machine is total GARBAGE! I wanted to mimic your videos at my home for fun, my house came out excellent. Now I have my neighbors asking me how much I would charge them to do theirs. I will be honest, you make it look so easy, the SH is expensive, the time and equipment is not cheap. The sun in Florida is unforgivng for those that work in front of a desk. I have a full time job, and I had to take an extra day off to recover from my Sunburn.😂 after pressure cleaning my house on my day off. My wife found it hilarious. I'm going to buy all the best equipment you advise for a soft wash system. Keep up the fun videos, my wife and I really enjoy them.

Thanks for sharing. That is so awesome! To do this job 1st one must truly enjoy it because it is very taxing on the body. As far a soft wash system I would with this one.

@chrisgood97152 жыл бұрын
I know you asked Clifford but I just wanted to say, it happens to us all man. A lot of “on the job” training in this field. Here are some tips. 1. If you’re having a hard time with normal stains & down streaming, start putting your down stream hose directly into the SH & draw 2%. Don’t be scared of SH. Think of it as chlorine, because well, it is. Soak all plants before & after work & you’ll be fine. Clifford’s videos are a prime example. He’s running 3,4,5% all the time and doesn’t even flench. If you find the 2% helps, get a soft wash system asap. You’re work will turn out better, guaranteed, with a soft wash system regulating your chemicals. Plus bleach will destroy your high pressure hoses, fittings, down stream injector, basically everything related to the pressure washer & it’ll do it quickly. 2: With that said, we work with high pressure, plumbing, water, & chemicals. Stuff is going to break (a lot.) If your problem is parts failing then make sure your charging enough to afford spare parts to fix stuff when it breaks. And, once again, get a soft wash system. Only using your pressure washer for concrete & rinsing will save you a lot of money in the long run. 3. Pro tip- Avoid dark hardy board at all cost till you know what to look for. If you put SH on a dark green hardy board home painted with Sherwood Williams paint, you can kiss your business goodbye. If you don’t have insurance you’ll be paying to repaint the home. To add to this, avoid over pleasing people by taking on oxidation removal, paint removal & other miscellaneous jobs & focus on perfecting your house wash instead until you’re comfortable. Don’t get discouraged. Anytime something goes wrong, instead of getting mad, think about how to fix it for next time. Get a CRM, LIKE RIGHT NOW!, if you don’t have one. Lastly, work on marketing. My biggest mistake when starting was trying to learn everything I could about the cleaning process and I didn’t focus on marketing at all. Well it doesn’t matter how good you are, if you don’t have customers, you’re not in business. I learned this the hard way. Think about it like this. If you want $900 days & you’re average job is $300 then you’ll need 3 new customers a day or 72 customers a month!!!! (Based on 24 days.) Take into account closing rate & you basically need 100 leads every month. Now that you understand the importance of marketing in this business, get on it!! Perhaps you’re already doing some of this stuff & I know this is a long post but I want to help. I almost gave up my first year and it was stressful. I didn’t sleep some nights. My problem at the time, marketing. Lead generation, marketing, sales, invoicing, follow ups, how you quote, all of these things are the MOST important thing you can learn as a new business owner. Hope this helps! Believe in yourself & you’ll succeed. & pay attention to Clifford when he talks about SH values! Very few people on KZbin are doing it like Clifford & that’s why he has 250+ 5 star reviews on his business page!

So I have to give a quote this week. Customer wants sand and seal and I’m at least going to charge $1 like you told me. My question is what sand should I use ?
@PinkFlamingoPowerWash2 жыл бұрын
Any sand will do. I personally like the silica sand cause it's easier to manage. The lowes and home depot sand always seems mushy like playground sand.

Yikes. Try a pool apply store. Pool chlorine down here is cheap. Tell them you're a business they may give you a slight discount especially buying in bulk.

I feel like every video you do has a screened in pool lol. I use to clean pools and even then, I’ve never seen so many screened in pools. Maybe 1 in 40 pools here have a screen. Must be a Florida thing. Edit: you’re getting huge Clifford. That chest bro, dang. Where do you get the energy to work, make videos, record, take phone calls, raise a family & hit the gym so hard. Share the secret to your high energy with us mortals lol.
