Area and surface in, job price out — with your rate, minimum charge, and time on site. Then send it straight into a quote.
Ballpark, not gospel. This prices the job from the numbers you punch in — adjust for access difficulty, water supply, and local competition before quoting.
Straight answers, no fluff. Then run your own numbers above.
Typical US rates: concrete/driveways $0.15–$0.35, house siding $0.20–$0.40, wood decks $0.25–$0.50, roof soft wash $0.30–$0.60 per sq ft. Set a minimum charge ($125–$200) so small jobs stay worth the trip.
A standard 2-car driveway (~400–600 sq ft) takes 1–2 hours including setup. Figure roughly 300–500 sq ft per hour depending on how dirty the surface is.
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water for hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure plus detergents for roofs and siding — safer, and you should charge more for it.
By the square foot for standard jobs — clients understand it and you get faster at quoting. Use hourly only for unusual work like graffiti removal or multi-story commercial.
