This year my plans are to create a web site, then place a series of small ads in the yellow pages with the url to my site. That way I can educate my potential customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all without them ever picking up the phone.

Neither HP or PSI is important when considering a new pressure washer. What you want is flow, and lots of it. At least 4.0 GPM is bare minimum, while 5.0+ being the preferred among pros. If your gonna do concrete, your gonna need hot water. Never haul water if you can help it. Its hard on...

Wouldn't 16 HP be a bit underpowered for 5gpm at 3000 PSI?

Yup 5 GPM @ 5000 PSI is overkill for most everything except concrete. Then you would need a unit with a burner. Expect to spend a pretty penny on that one. If it were me, and all I would be doing is houses, I would get a 3500 PSI direct drive unit at 4.0 GPM with a general or cat pump. Spend...

I'm not sure I'd want to take on any job site unseen because you never know what your getting yourself into. Plus you would be making a burnt run if they decide not to accept your bid then your out quite a bit of windshield time and money. I'd just say price it out to them as high as you...

Or do what attornies do when they don't want to take your case, charge a crapload for the bid!

Where the hell is Ross Perot when you need him on the ballot? Nevermind. Stupid Question. He's off with some pie chart and a pointer explaining something to somebody.

I'm a rookie too, but I went out and got my equipment after reading this board and I spent a pretty penny on it, but it is well worth it. You as a professional pressure washer needs equipment with lots of flow, plain and simple. Time is money to a pressure washer, and in most applications we...

The war in iraq was created by bushy to take our eyes off the economy, and it was based on false information. Kerry supported bush because he wanted to look good in the eyes of voters and probably did not pay that much attention to the reports. Saddam was the best ally we had in the war...

You might want to give Steve Rowlett a call at 1-800-357-6295. He hooked me up with his Citracleen Housewash Mix and Gutter Shock product. This stuff is the bomb for doing houses. Dirt, mildew, and algae just melts right off. I use it, I've seen Steve use it, and I know it works. For a...

I love my big guy surface cleaner made by whisper wash.

If your doing very much concrete work, you must have heat and your best bet is to have a skid mount unit on a trailer. I would recommend that you purchase a 20 HP honda powered belt drive unit with a general pump and a beckett burner. Don't forget a surface cleaner!!!

Spinners, gotta have the spinners... Oh BTW I seen a set on a beat up late 80's model F-150... HILARIOUS!
