For residentals go by the job. Figure out a price in your head and add 20-30% to it. This will be the fat zone. This zone is for the times where you have underestimated or a issue arrises where something is very difficult to come clean. Trust me these will arise.

Plus always check and ask"how long has it been since the building has been professionally cleaned?" This phrase will be a precurser to issues you might face;

• improper chemicial were used in the past(STAINS CHEMICIALLY BAKED IN)
• cleaned by the average joe=trouble!!!
• high demanding customers
• Pita JOBS

Never feel you have to do a job. If a client seems to be unrealistic or strange, give a stupid high quote or make them last on a very long list!!

I use purple power straight with a brush. Don't have to scrub real hard but helps break the tiger striping loose. Just use plenty of water when rinsing, also if the soap drips on the concrete wash it off right a way, will leave big clean spots! Have recently been told by a siding contractor that 409 works great, haven't tried it though and don't know if you can get it cheap enough to make it worth wild to use.
