Great vid man! Not sure why I enjoy watching these vids, maybe it's that feeling of entrepreneurship. I didn't run power washing, but ran my own business in a completely different category, and nothing feels better!
You and Kyle with soft wash tv have been pivotal to my small business growth. Keep making that great content and love seeing the growth. Va based and getting that $ when I can .
Years ago I renovated a house for a guy that owned a super successful commercial landscaping company. The guy was the nicest guy. He was so enthusiastic and a great listener. Everyone loved spending time with him and wanted to be involved with whatever he was doing. I think that was the secret sauce to selling jobs and running his company. I think you and him probably share that same quality
That serpentine belt is for your AC Compressor&Tensioner. So when you turn your AC on an wonder why it's not working that's why.. also you have serpentine belt that runs your engine accessories (water pump, alternator, power steering pump ect...) it's much longer tho.. just a heads up.. btw I love your channel my fav pressure washing youtube channel.. #rockon
Was wondering what method you used on that dumpster pad to contain the waste water. There very strick in our area about contaminated water going back into the street drains. Just wondering what you use
Hey man, I’m a local and this is my first time hearing if you. I also have a similar but definitely smaller small business would love some in person tips and tricks about the wash game. Thank you.
killin it!!!! You gotta take day brotha otherwise what's the point of even making money i feel like so many guys whether employed or self employed forget that, work to live not live to work .... having good work ethic is a good thing but being a workaholic is as much of a sickness as being a drug attic or alcoholic
What pressure do you recommend when cleaning those composite decks along with what type cleaner? I heard to never put bleach because it could cause fading
When you use your gold assassin degreaser, how much square footage does one gallon cover when using ratios of 4 to 1 and 10 to 1 based off there recommendations.
Hey Austin Davis, thanks for your videos, they very informative. Quick question, the dumpster cleaning service on this video was only on the exterior? Do you also offer the interior of it?
Hey Austin I don’t downstream much at all so I gotta ask. When you downstreamed those soffits or anything I guess, how much time do you spend pre wetting plants? Thanks brother
Not much if any at all. One percent down stream will hardly not affect plants. If they are really delicate flowers then I will probably wer them down a little bit.
You live in Austin? I've been thinking seriously of moving back after 16 years away. I've been told cost of living has gotten way higher. I'm planning to make a visit in May. Might be looking for a job myself. Tired of the office job I'm working in all the way up in Kansas.
I'm a fan. I just started my Pressure Washing Business. About to start my first season. Any tips for starting out? I've been whipping my ass for 42 years lol
I bought a dewalt 4000psi 3.5 gpm , for Clean my house , but I don’t know how to mix the bleach and soap without damage the siding and briks , how much of each one per gallon of water I need , or if I need my down stream from machine to mix it
Let's assume you're using a pump up sprayer or a water pump and not a down stream injector. Let's say you have 10% Sodium hypochlorite bleach and need a 1.25% solution. You get your needed percentage and divide that by the current bleach strength. 1.25÷10=0.125. now you multiply that number by the 128oz in a gallon. 0.125×128= 16oz of the 10% bleach. So you add 16oz of the 10% bleach and 112oz of water to give you a 1.25% strength solution. As for the quantity of soap you have to play with that but you can add a couple of table spoon or up to 10oz. Avoid using a dish soap if you're trying to keep it cheap especially if the dish soap says on the bottle don't mix with bleach. You'll have some better luck with dish soap. 2 pods does the trick for me. If it's heavy thick mold then you might need a hard scrub brush for the brick like a deck broom or a hand scrubber. Down streaming percentages and ratios is still something I'm trying to wrap my head around so I can't say much on that. I believe a fully open down streamer gives a maximum of 20% of whatever the solution is. With that thought in mind you'd need a 6.25% solution to be down streamed so it'll come out the hose at 1.25%. so same thing 6.25÷10= 0.625 x 128= 80oz of 10% bleach. So 80oz bleach and 48oz water to get the 6.25% then the downstreamer knocks it down to 20% of that. 6.25% × 0.2= 1.25% out the hose downstreaming.
Really liking the content man, since starting to watch your videos I’ve register my own business about to start off. Quick question for clothing purposes any recommendations man? 🙏🏻
Most recommended 100% polyester to avoid discoloration from the bleach. Me personally I recommend long sleeve to help protect your skin while out in the sun all day.
Talking with Mike from Polk about a skid, I have a question about yours. Can you fit your truck in an average height garage with a ladder on it, or is it too high? Also was the surface cleaner rack made Specifically for your size surface cleaner?
Most garages I can’t fit into but that’s mostly because lose garages have 8-9ft clearance. Most skids won’t fit. Some bigger garages that are taller I can get into
Maybe this is a dumb question, but what do you do about the inside of the dumpsters? That one was filled with trash bags, so do you just not clean out the bottom? If you do, what happens to the water at the bottom of the dumpster? Thanks for the video!!
From what I've seen, the inside of the dumpster is not cleaned up at all. It's the outside part that is and the surroundings around the dumpster. It's gonna get dirty faster even if you clean the inside.
I'm assuming he used the same downstreamer as the dumpster pad and he was saying he was pulling 10 to 1. So 9.1% of whatever his SH percentage is. 10% × 0.091= 0.91% downstream solution or 12.5% × 0.091= 1.14% solution. I'm pretty sure his SH is the 12.5% since he buys from a chemical plant.
While doing the cleaning services at someone house do you have any experience encounter a flirting women homeowner ? lol, thats a normal thing to happen here in LA.
Hello @Austin Davis I'm from the Netherlands living on the border with Germany please let me know how I can contact you I have some questions after watching your videos. The high pressure (house) washing business doesn't exist over here.
Lol actually I have money because I don’t spend a bunch of money on a brand new work truck that’s just going to get beat up from all the chemicals anyway
I’m 36 and just got my LLC to start a business like you. I would love to pick your brain and learn from you. Do you have a direct message that people can contact you?
Where do you guys live? What types of jobs do you get the most of(residential houses,businesses. Barns, trucks)? I’ve been barn washing for ten years and I’m wondering what you guys and others job breakdowns are as far as what you wash and how much or little and what you charge per this job or that? What are your biggest and best paying regular or recurring washes? I’m a wealth of knowledge in my own pressure washing lane and could answer any questions related to large barn washing, etc..

That’s a serpentine belt from your engine definitely get that fixed part number will be on the belt for cross reference
Do you also do the inside of the dumpster? Yes im new dont judge
Where do you go for bulk chems in Austin? Or even just to top off your tanks? Pool places like SCP/FWP? Chem plants? Thank you!
I get my chem from a plant just outside of Austin. called Napco chemical
@@AustinDavis24 Luling Napco has a degreaser that I love! $15 a gallon, can’t beat it!
Did you get any sh on that deck carpet? I saw that carpet and was wondering how you worked around it.
so, you don't move furniture or anything ???? or even the small potted plant on the small house in the back ????
Of course i will if i need to
What do you mean by CRM’s?
Loved the video. Quick question, what kind of rain boots are you rockin?

Hey Austin Davis, thanks for your videos, they very informative. Quick question, the dumpster cleaning service on this video was only on the exterior? Do you also offer the interior of it?
I could do the interior if its empty. Most of the time it isnt empty and you couldnt pay me to clear the trash and put it back in
What chemicals do you use for soft washing houses? Do you just make Bleach (SH) percentage solutions? Chlorine?
Yes it’s a SH based solution. With soap. Depending on what I’m cleaning will determine the SH strength levels
Go ahead you are doing a great job, I am confused to start work in Arizona where there is no humidity and it is very hot, what do you think bro?
Are there people needing pressure washing services??
