Here are some suggested questions that you should ask any pressure washing company before making your decision to hire.
Do you use professional grade pressure washers and cleaners?
Many companies start up by buying home owner pressure washers from hardware stores instead of buying professional grade pressure washers and equipment.
Pressure washing is a serious business that requires the right equpment and materials for the job. Short cuts like these can cause mechanical breakdowns, surface damages and longer completion times causing disruptions to your home or place of business.
Does the pressure washing contractor have any training or experience? There is a quite a bit of pressure washing training courses and seminars available to pressure washers, but many rely on using too much pressure that causes thousands of dollars in damages!
Are their prices incredibly low because they desperately need the work? Saving money is nice but when pressure washers bid a job low they may make up for your savings by cutting corners or giving a lower quality service.
Can the pressure washer perform the service properly? If possible, have the contractor provide customer testimonials or give you a demonstration of their process.
Is the contractor licensed? Many states require licensing for pressure washing and for sealing decks. Make sure your contractor has met all of your states legal requirements!
Is the contractor insured? Many new contractors start up without having the proper insurance to protect your property. Unfortuanetly most new contractors don't know how to safely clean surfaces so they an end up causing extensive damages. If they don't have insurance to cover any losses, you could lose everything you own with little or no recourse.
Does the contractor follow EPA guidelines? Very few contractors understand and follow the EPA's Clean Water Act guidelines for pressure washing. In most cases EPA compliancy is simple and fairly inexpensive but violating the law could lead to fines as high as $50,000 for the contractor and the property owner.
