The examples of the equipment were solid, but BRO, WRAP IT UP! You start explaining something and just settle into this long winded diatribe as though you are explaining the concept of a wheel or lever to a caveman. I literally nodded off and dropped my phone on my chest which startled me awake. Cut the length of video by 2/3 and actually thing about what you want to say before hand instead of just turning on the camera and blathering on till your truck runs out of water for the equipment!
Or perhaps it’s you that doesn’t understand that a quarter of a million people have watched this video in less than a year. And since my dislike to like ratio is 3.7% I’m satisfying the audience as a whole, not one random guy’s preference Maybe you don’t understand that I’ve been teaching this stuff to literally a couple thousand folks in the last couple years at my class. What I know and you don’t (since you’ve had a RUclips channel for 2 days, no videos, and no subscribers) Is that people all over the world with varying levels of knowledge are going to watch this video. And so, instead of answering a ton of questions in the comments section for the next 5 years, I try to be very very thorough and cover every possible thing I can. Since my business is going to do over 5 million this year, and my RUclips channel pays me over 1,000 a month, I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing. Thanks for the feedback tho 😎
@@southeastsoftwash4020 you do you man, but I think he has a point. kutos to you for your success, although we do live in a generation of instant gratification. shorter videos will get you more views and returning viewers. in turn more money from youtube.

Im in college and marketing/media classes stress this truth! keep up the good work. love the info
@@michaelkunka160 there is a place for short videos. And I’ve got plenty of those. There’s also a need for full length content. My main objective isn’t growing RUclips channel, but growing my main business. If a dude is and just about making vids, then yes you are right. If your trying to dominate a industry then long form content is going to play its role.
I learned this the hard way. I used a surface cleaner to do a whole driveway and then went back and washed the dirt off. Well it took longer because the dirt had settle back. Now I do it in sections and its a lot easier. This is a great tip for anyone do this out there.
One of the best (and actually informative) videos I have seen. Thank you for not being one of the countless masses that treat a video as an infomercial for selling all their products and courses. I know it is an older video, but damn. So much better than the rest.
This is probably the most informational video for pressure washing like this I've seen. Who cares how long it is because if it's teaching/informing more info is better than too little.
I love and respect the fact you actually take the time needed to break everything down. As a new entrepreneur in the pressure washing business this what was needed.
I didn’t think I was gonna watch this all cause I’m on the fence about starting pressure washing but it was so engaging that i watched it all. He literally covered almost everything i need to know about maintaining gear/equipment, what gear to get, how to not damage property, how to repair damages, how to route water flow, settings for equipment, tips and tricks, and it’s all necessary information.
Absolutely the BEST concrete driveway pressure washing video on RUclips - Great Job and THANK YOU! Extremely professional facilitation of the entire cleaning process!
As someone who has only power washed his home with a wand I'm very impressed with you knowledge and overall professionalism. I will be changing to a surface cleaner, particularly on my pavers. Thanks for taking the time to make this
I have been a pressure washing contractor in the Northeast since 1988. Although it is now more of a sideline play money thing I still try to pay attention. Recently my son has finally started to express interest in this field. Sometimes dad‘s explanations and speaking mannerisms don’t exactly come out right so I’ve tried to find him some RUclips explanations. Sir, you do an outstanding! Job showing and explaining your equipment, your solutions, your methods and the reasons why. If I had had you to teach me back in the early days you would’ve saved me a lot of headaches. Hopefully you can do the same for my son? Thank you for your well thought out and put together videos. Aqualazer Tim
😂😂😂 Looks like a water spout behind you at 1:08..... Coty, I dont think you guys fully comprehend how many lives you've affected. I'm 44, and married with three young daughters. In 2013 I nearly broke my back while deadlifting, and for the last 10 years Ive been a stay at home dad. I literally prayed for God to show me a way to provide for my girls, and a few days later I started running across softwashing and pressure washing videos. As of now, I've already purchased most of the equipment to plumb out my trailer, bought and LLC and insurance, and I'm about to sell my Challenger to stay afloat while we get moving. I never in a million years would've imagined myself being capable of running my own business with a busted back. Thank you, Coty! You guys on here showing men how to create wealth is an absolute ministry from God..... You're saving households from homelessness..... Thank you, brother! My girls are my life, bro. Thank you!
I don't understand why 1,000 people can like your videos. Then one person or a few people dislike something. The person will change their will to meet the negative people. I personally love your videos. The only reason he disliked the length is because he already knows the information you were saying. I on the other hand did not. Which is why I watch all your videos, their full length. I say keep doing you. Very good information here. And because of your information. I took that and learned, just finished a $22,000 parking lot. My 3rd job as a company. Bro, THANK YOU!!!
This is the video that stopped me from being the $99 guy!.....In Jan of 2021 I decided to start up a side hustle....I was going to buy me a pressure washer and throw it in the back of the truck and make a few extra bucks on the weekends..........But I decided to do a little research first.......this is the first video I came across.......I knew NOTHING about soft washing......This video intrigued me to dig a little deeper........long story short......I watched many more of your videos and discovered Mike Vidan and Aaron Parker along the way.........I still only do this part time, but I built a soft wash trailer and been learning ever since!!.....Thank you for all the helpful videos..........Looking forward to joining your in class training soon!...........HOOTIE...OUTLAW POWER WASH
Extremely well done. Answered questions I didnt know to ask yet. Appreciate the instructor demeanor instead of the street thug homeboy presentation. Very professional.
Thanks for the great through information. Here's a good tip: ignore any negative comments. There's aways a hater. Please don't waste your time. Don't even respond. What your doing is excellent. Thanks again!!!!!
Great pre inspection tips and explanation of how you do what you do from beginning to the end. You definitely need to find any problems and record them, via video and/or photos and notify the owner. You have a new subscriber.
I am glad you don't follow the pinned guys advice. I am just getting ready to get started and I appreciate the details and points you made and I was pausing the video to take notes because there is so much information! I got every bit of it. I will probably watch it one more time without any pauses before I do my driveway. You are an excellent teacher. I've always hated impatient teachers/trainers on jobs that go thru something fast and then walk off leaving me to figure it out. Not everyone already knows all this stuff. You have a gift for teaching and I am glad you are being compensated for it. You are a blessing to me and will help me get my business going.
Thanks for this video man. Wow!! You answered a ton of questions and gave some great tips for beginners and intermediates. I’m trying to get a 4 GPM unit right now so I’m really glad that’s what you were using. And it worked great! So I appreciate that. Definitely saving this video.
Cody, just wanted to say thank you for helping me better understand this business I’m from Chattanooga Tennessee and I’m about to start my own power washing business. Thanks bud
How do you keep chemicals that run down the driveway from going into the street, hence possibly going down the drain down the street? Also what's a good way to find the low spots on a surface that looks flat? And lastly, can you just wet the grass outside of a sidewalk or driveway prior to using the pre-treatment and it'd be covered in the aspect of being safe if a little overspray got onto the grass? Great video! I'm starting out and am watching as many videos as I can and yours is pretty thorough. I only have a 3.5 gallon 3,800 psi machine to start with, knowing I will need something better later down the road but that's what I have. Thanks
Superb video, am just adding pressure washing as a service within my cleaning business in the Uk and can honestly say I learn’t more in that 20 mins of watching the vid than in the last six months
Just bought a Simpson 4000psi 4gpm pressure washer yesterday off market place cheap. Ordering a 4000psi 4gpm hotsy belt drive tomorrow. Just bought that same surface cleaner. Loved watching your video. 💪
Thanks for the info. Very informative. I just expanded my business to include pressure washing so videos like this definitely shorten the learning curve of the finer points to the art.
Great Job on the How To. I appreciate the detail as well. Lots of Videos I have found leave steps out due to them knowing the whole task and forgetting to teach the whole task, which was the point of the video.
Well, as a professional troll, I feel attacked. Great job though! I was looking for some good info for my driveway and you hit everything I needed to know.
Thank you for the video! This helped me see that there is much more to pressure washing concrete than what I initially thought. I’m currently doing neighborhood pressure washing with my beat up Honda 3.6 GPL and a small surface cleaner, but looking to get a modest setup (less than what you have), but that will allow me to more effectively clean concrete. Thanks again!
Big fella! Thanks a whole Lotta bunch. This video is great for any level. Novice or experience. I learned so so much. You didn't any secrets. How do I know. You went in detail. Details are needed and necessary to help the guide the new and reiterate to the old. Thanks
Regardless of what the trolls have to say, as a former pressure washer service professional, I think you did a pretty thorough explanation of how to surface clean.
Appreciate the knowledge brother! Bout to order a BE 20inch and was a little nervous about running one with at 4gpm.. this sealed the deal! and I know what to expect and what tips to use! Thanks again! Hopefully I can catch one of your training's one day, and get me a badass skid!
did you ever order teh surf cleaner (20"). are you happy with it and which tips worked best for concrete? i assume 25025. i am looking at a BE 4gpm 4000 psi press washer. not cheap but great unit
I just started my own pressure cleaning Business in Australia, love your set up im running a small trailer atm but Im aiming for your type of set up..Nice ;)
Thank you for respecting the trade and your audience sir. Excellent video, breaking things down Barney Style! I'll happily watch this again, to make sure that this is where, my business's bar is set. Stay well.
How to pressure wash 101: Step 1: park on someone’s grass Step 2: put some green lense glasses on and getter done Step 3: tell the customer what’s up before they do
Troll: Leaving comment. Great info! I really appreciate all the videos I’ve watched of yours so far. I’m 38 and was looking for a business to start that I’d enjoy and for some reason, this seems like a job I’d enjoy. Satisfying cleaning without too much effort or thinking. I’m just hoping it’s not too hard to break into once I’ve got the equipment. Time will tell. Maybe I’ll vlog it.
You should do a how to take a before and after picture video. It would be useful for a couple reasons, you could throw a jab in there. I swear it is the hardest part of the job for me, my pics are bad.
Troll here...lol jk Thank you so much for the over detailed and informative video. It has boosted my confidence in opening my own pressure washing cleaning business. I didn't know a single thing about pre & post treating let alone the angles of the tips to allow for better waterflow. I look forward to more of your videos!
This is a great video. This video is a teaching video. I found this video very helpful and in depth look on how to do this job. A lot of people don't give this much info so you then have to look for more video on this subject. You pack it all in one video. Great job!
I just figured out something. I can put a rubber shield on the back of the surface washer to keep the water from splattering back on my feet and I can wear my tennis shoes.... you mentioned washing it two times, I wash it long ways with the driveway. My last pass goes like with the house or road. It helps hide any lines. I do appreciate the fact that you lay a last chemical spray on the driveway to kill any remaining mold.
I want to first thank you for being thorough; apparently, internet culture has lost the concept of value from people like yourself that are long-winded.. I am not. I really appreciate the finer details of a craft. I learned a lot.. I learned what to expect if I go at this from a DIY'r renting equipment from my local rental store.. or if I need to hire someone. Thank you for your time, knowledge, and pure passion of doing what you do. If I ever get into this professionally..or know someone who does.. you will be my source to come to or send to. Thank you again.
Wish I saw this before yesterday! Spent 8 hours pressure washing a driveway the old fashioned way. It kicked my ass!! Lol 😆! On the bright side it was a beautiful day!! Live and learn i always say.
This is the best and most through video on driveways. I'm just starting and until I get better equipment, sticking with flat surfaces for the time being
Great video! I appreciate the knowledge I don't care if you talk for a long time that's great people are here to learn I'd rather you go over everything than cover nothing your content is solid.
Great video and very detailed. I know it could of been longer and wish it was! but you gained a new subscriber just how you break everything down. gj bro
Solid bro 🙏 24 years old, just bought a 3.5 gpm Honda power washer, same surface cleaner, just learning to use chemicals properly and you did a great job 🙌🏼
Thank you so much for this vid. I never knew you could have a shut off lever (ball valve as you call it) to make going from a Surface cleaner to a high pressure hose easy. You have made my day and I so thank you so much. Please keep making more vids :)
According to Doc no need to pretreat or use any chemicals. He is the self proclaimed expert in every thing. He even tells you which pressure washer you need. I use 2000 psi at 6 gpm and get great results.
Thanks for the video my friend, im saving to invest in my own pressure washing business and this was very informational. I loved how you touched on the does and don'ts, you really have no idea how greatful i am, this really just gave me that much more motivation. Keep up the great work and keep making that money. Hopefully in the near future i can share my very own videos.
My dad and my self are in the process of starting our own pressure washing business and while he knows some things I don't know almost any of it. This is the second video of yours I've watched and have heard and seen things I would have never thought about. You just earned another subscriber.
Great detail in video. Why did you slightly tilt the surface cleaner each time you started it? In this case in order to keep the runoff on the property, do you hose it into the yard and just dilute a lot? Thank you.
I'm NOT a troll :) But I DO want to say what a GREAT video, and THANK YOU! I've got a 1500', stamped concrete driveway that needs doing, and this has been a big help! Thanks again.
AWESOME video. Thanks to you, I just ordered a ball valve connector for my hose. Cleaning my driveway and other things has went from easy to easier..... Thanks my friend.
Thanks... i appreciate the detail... too often people skip over key details or assume you know. Most youtube videos set people up for failure thinking they have it covered.
Great tutorial! Thank you for the explanation on the tips. No one talks about that. About the "violence" when clogged or worn. Pace of your walk was definitely evident. Again thank you.
My favorite take always from the video: why post treat, clean water act is Federal, look out for damaged nozzles and keep them even, look out for damaged concrete and don’t let the customers undervalue your work. I will consider wearing a respirator by the way. Thank you for not skipping property protection. New subscriber here!
Here I am watching these and still getting ideas! Turing the ball valve down while surface cleaning! Never thought of that! Anyone who wants to better their company never gets complacent with thinking they know it all! Thanks for the detailed video!!
The examples of the equipment were solid, but BRO, WRAP IT UP! You start explaining something and just settle into this long winded diatribe as though you are explaining the concept of a wheel or lever to a caveman.

Question about water runoff if you’re doing a driveway that’s on a hill how do you prevent the water from leaving the property
if its only clean water then it doesn’t matter, only if you are using chemicals you need to collect it
you put a picture of chuck norris at the property line , DUH !!!
@@aidanwilkiewicz7109 yes but I think he's asking, HOW do you collect it? It's a question I have as well. A vacuum of some kind?

I’m just hoping it’s not too hard to break into once I’ve got the equipment. Time will tell.
Maybe I’ll vlog it.
You should do a how to take a before and after picture video. It would be useful for a couple reasons, you could throw a jab in there. I swear it is the hardest part of the job for me, my pics are bad.
ant banks lol. I really should
Straight forward individual that set the right expectations up front and covers everything the process entails. Thanks for sharing your expertise
“If you’re a troll, go ahead and leave a comment, down in the comment section” 😂🤣😂
Do Troll's even have computers. they live in caves. still good video.
Really disappointed at the lack of Trolling going on here! LOL!
Troll here...lol jk Thank you so much for the over detailed and informative video. It has boosted my confidence in opening my own pressure washing cleaning business. I didn't know a single thing about pre & post treating let alone the angles of the tips to allow for better waterflow. I look forward to more of your videos!
Im not looking to start a pressure wash business but you give alot of great information and tips for the diy. Thank you.
This is a great video. This video is a teaching video. I found this video very helpful and in depth look on how to do this job. A lot of people don't give this much info so you then have to look for more video on this subject. You pack it all in one video. Great job!
I just figured out something. I can put a rubber shield on the back of the surface washer to keep the water from splattering back on my feet and I can wear my tennis shoes.... you mentioned washing it two times, I wash it long ways with the driveway. My last pass goes like with the house or road. It helps hide any lines. I do appreciate the fact that you lay a last chemical spray on the driveway to kill any remaining mold.
I want to first thank you for being thorough; apparently, internet culture has lost the concept of value from people like yourself that are long-winded.. I am not. I really appreciate the finer details of a craft. I learned a lot.. I learned what to expect if I go at this from a DIY'r renting equipment from my local rental store.. or if I need to hire someone. Thank you for your time, knowledge, and pure passion of doing what you do. If I ever get into this professionally..or know someone who does.. you will be my source to come to or send to. Thank you again.
You are so welcome!
Wish I saw this before yesterday! Spent 8 hours pressure washing a driveway the old fashioned way. It kicked my ass!! Lol 😆! On the bright side it was a beautiful day!! Live and learn i always say.
This is the best and most through video on driveways. I'm just starting and until I get better equipment, sticking with flat surfaces for the time being
Great video!
I appreciate the knowledge I don't care if you talk for a long time that's great people are here to learn I'd rather you go over everything than cover nothing your content is solid.
Rising important, don’t use chemicals on concrete
Thanks for all insights. You offered us all your hard lesson for free. Wish you to have more leads...!!!
Cheers...🎉
By far the best advice for a professional LLC! No weekend warrior knowledge here!
Great video and very detailed. I know it could of been longer and wish it was! but you gained a new subscriber just how you break everything down. gj bro
Solid bro 🙏 24 years old, just bought a 3.5 gpm Honda power washer, same surface cleaner, just learning to use chemicals properly and you did a great job 🙌🏼
Great vid, mate. I’m an Aussie and I appreciate your work and your information! Thanks.
Thank you so much for this vid. I never knew you could have a shut off lever (ball valve as you call it) to make going from a Surface cleaner to a high pressure hose easy. You have made my day and I so thank you so much. Please keep making more vids :)
Excellent job! The best video I’ve seen on this subject. I learned so much. Thank you
According to Doc no need to pretreat or use any chemicals. He is the self proclaimed expert in every thing. He even tells you which pressure washer you need. I use 2000 psi at 6 gpm and get great results.
Going to add driveway and sidewalk cleaning to my services in 2022. Currently a carpet and floor cleaner. Great value in this video!
I never even thought of runoff. I hardly hear anyone talking about that or having a machine to take up water that’s flowing off the driveway. Good tip
Thanks for the video my friend, im saving to invest in my own pressure washing business and this was very informational. I loved how you touched on the does and don'ts, you really have no idea how greatful i am, this really just gave me that much more motivation. Keep up the great work and keep making that money. Hopefully in the near future i can share my very own videos.
Cody I really appreciate the knowledge and skill that you share with us. Thank you sever much.
thx for taking this time and being clear and thorough, another "like" for your video...you scratch my back, i scratch yours.
My dad and my self are in the process of starting our own pressure washing business and while he knows some things I don't know almost any of it. This is the second video of yours I've watched and have heard and seen things I would have never thought about. You just earned another subscriber.
Excellent, Comprehensive, and Informative.
Great detail in video. Why did you slightly tilt the surface cleaner each time you started it? In this case in order to keep the runoff on the property, do you hose it into the yard and just dilute a lot? Thank you.
Cody, sir... Thanks for the video. I was about to ask these exact questions again and apparently I asked them 6 mos ago.
The high pressure ball valve is a good tip, thanks. Appreciate your time making this video.
I like how you added “if you’re a troll” lol. Cant post anything without those. Very informative.
I'm NOT a troll :) But I DO want to say what a GREAT video, and THANK YOU! I've got a 1500', stamped concrete driveway that needs doing, and this has been a big help! Thanks again.
AWESOME video. Thanks to you, I just ordered a ball valve connector for my hose. Cleaning my driveway and other things has went from easy to easier..... Thanks my friend.
very good video with the ppe and the water flowing out into the streets. subbed
Thanks for the video and actually telling us the cost! Most people are to afraid to even talk about the costs. Good price too!
I am very impressed with the presentation, I learn a lot from the tips. It is clear and concise. It is time well spent. Thank you.
Awesome!
Glad to help
Thanks... i appreciate the detail... too often people skip over key details or assume you know. Most youtube videos set people up for failure thinking they have it covered.
Great tutorial! Thank you for the explanation on the tips. No one talks about that. About the "violence" when clogged or worn. Pace of your walk was definitely evident. Again thank you.
You are the best professor at the Youniversity. :)
My favorite take always from the video: why post treat, clean water act is Federal, look out for damaged nozzles and keep them even, look out for damaged concrete and don’t let the customers undervalue your work. I will consider wearing a respirator by the way. Thank you for not skipping property protection. New subscriber here!
Looking forward to getting our new skid. Thanks for the help and instruction. I learn something new every day!
This was a helpful video. I appreciate the advice about keeping your tips clean and new. Thats something I hadnt considered
Here I am watching these and still getting ideas! Turing the ball valve down while surface cleaning! Never thought of that! Anyone who wants to better their company never gets complacent with thinking they know it all! Thanks for the detailed video!!
What a great video! Exactly what I needed with the kind of insights and lessons learned only a seasoned practitioner could offer.
Very informative video, thanks for helping out a newbie!!!
I like the video and the video length. I watch all your videos all the way through.
Love your videos. I learned a lot thanks a fan from Belgium 🇧🇪
Whew that driveway was Nasty lol Great video, really covered a lot of need to know info. Before and After shot was quite amazing
IM STARTING MY JOURNEY JUST BOOK MY FIRST GIG GREAT VIDEO
