This is the year I take the leap and start this business! Your channel is immensely helpful and informative. I love how down to earth you are, no BS. Keep up the hard work!
As someone who powerwashes homes and cars,I would like to suggest using a Snow Foam Cannon to apply cleaning solutions, it is very easy and simple, you can have multiple different mixes,hot and mild ready to go.
Thank you very much for such an informative and detailed video for new guys like me looking to start this business. Greatly appreciated! Love the video and content very helpful. I look forward to watching the rest of your videos and continuing to learn 👍
Bro thank you for all this content, you are legitimately one of my favorite people on youtube, just wanted to say that before your channel blows up lol. Anyways, I'm from the Corpus area, hoping to start this journey soon, currently working as a service writer for a dealership, I'm sure you're familiar with that grind. Quick question, if I'm starting out with a setup like you just described, should I hold off on roof cleanings until i can upgrade equipment or is there a way to get a decent roof wash with this system?
I found out that I can pretty much survive on $300 per week during the pandemic. I was unemployed for 2 years and i relied on 6 months of unemployment and my savings to get through it. So, now that I have a job, I’m looking to save my pennies towards a pressure washing business. Thanks for all your advice on this video.
austin man i love your videos and have been watching for a while now. im actiually right about to pull the trigger as i type this, 2300$ is not a large investment but its still not chump change either, anways my question is is there another pressure washer you could reccomend aside from the one you have listed on your description? im in california and unfortunately they wont ship to me. I do plan on moving out of state however. thank you hope to hear back from you
Pressure washer products has the Honda/AR 5gpm belt drive for $1333. Includes 50' hose, gun wand assembly with tips and high draw injector w/quick connects.
Which brand for a 4gpm do you recommend BE, Simpson. So i got lucky and was able to get a contract on an entire townhome community and i was a semi nebbie at this but was able to pressure wash all 80 units driveways from a Dewalt 2.5 from home depot and then it gave out in the end. But i want to be professional and take on commercial jobs and willing to spend 2k on a pressure washer if its going to last me a few years at least.
Probably should’ve included a turbo nozzle, when I first started out I had a crappy surface cleaner and my turbo nozzle wasn’t as fast but it did a better job and was not much slower than my surface cleaner
Hey I’m going to start and am mobbin in a 2021 Chevy Colorado Im not working with a lot of bed room ..I want to install a tank with a chemical pump as well but also want to utilize what little space I have to work with
Any particular reason you suggest this spray gun over the one that comes with the pressure washer? Thanks for all your tips, probably gonna get this exact setup.
The one that comes with the pressure washer is a long lance gun already put together. You’ll use that gun for your Pressure Washing . You’ll need a softwash gun set up for your pressure washer that you can downstream with
You think I could get buy just starting out pressure washing (with the plan to expand into soft washing) with a F150, a 4 gpm machine and a surface cleaner? Obviously chems, hose and consumables. Looking to do it part time while I keep my 2nd shift job.
Most people do not soft wash. Thats mostly for roofs and siding. You can definitely do without soft washing early on. Especially if part time you wont need a lot of jobs to fill your time anyway. 3 months late to answer but for others to know
Hey, I'm just now getting into pressure washing so this may seem like a silly question but what is the need for a flexzilla garden hose as well as the high pressure hose? are they used for different purposes? Thanks!
That is a silly question!! Haha. The flexzilla feeds the machine with water and the high pressure hose is the hosed that goes out of the power washer and to the gyn
Hey man, I just bought that five dollar thing there to be able to send property management companies and I didn’t get it. I did not get what I paid for says it went to archives well I looked in your archives or mine and I got nothing. absolutely nothing I gave you five bucks for nothing.
what are your thoughts on starting with just a good softwashing system (p40)? I was thinking If I needed it for a job Id rent a pressure washer until I could afford one.
Not sure. Haven’t looked into it. I’m sure some of these stuff you can get off Amazon. I would just buy it from a legit commercial pressure washing distributor
@@AustinDavis24 I do have a few other questions and Im going to send a link and see what you think. I read reviews snd a couple of them caught my attention. Look them over please??
For storage try a 5 gallon bucket or plastic tote. Or if you have somewhere on your trailer to hang it you can roll it up and wrap it with a bungee type cord and hang it.
Have now used this to clean house siding and it performed well ruclips.net/user/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX I also bought some wand extensions which enabled higher washing without needing a ladder. I recommend both. This unit arrived quickly, was easy to assemble (only had to attach the handle), and arrived in perfect condition. The only very slight downgrade from a perfect score is the design has a low handle and requires pulling from the side. My old washer was an upright model, while this one is more horizontal. Other than that, it's perfect for my needs. It has a great deal of pressure and more easily cleaned the house siding, porch rails and concrete than did my older model. The engine is a bit louder, as well, but the total time to clean was reduced by the more powerful spray. Did I mention it starts on the first or second pull every time?!! I am definitely happy with this model.
They are just not built to go for a lot of hours. Mine went out within 40 hours. And the difference between a AAA pump and a general pump it’s just night and day when you actually have used both of them. You can clearly see the difference in operating and longevity
You just have to do 100% reclamation. Look up how they recommend you doing it. But it usually means you just cant get it down any drain. It has to stay in the yard so that it doesnt go into the water system.
The chemical that pressure companies use is mainly bleach. I don't know how the laws differ but what's the difference then putting bleach on concrete washing it down into the gutter vs using bleach in ur washing machine to clean up clothes. It ends up in the same place. So I don't think that really matters as laws go. I'm not a lawyer so take it for what u will.
I have the predator 4.2gpm 4400 psi. If I get 4000psi rated hoses will I be ok? I’m banking that I won’t get 4400 or should I get a higher rated hose. I also could throttle it down.
Start out with appreciate the video and your work.. however to be a bit critical if I came in with 2k .. you just spent something like 2500 with the underpricing and shipping costs not included haha . . Sorry just trying to be realistic. I'm hoping I can afford all you have here as from the tons of videos I have watched you have picked a higher quality set up than many, but it may just be a bit out of the budget. Anyway thank you for sharing I really wasn't trying to be a D.. just that for someone who is starting out that is a bit misleading
I wanted to get a legit Pressure Washing starter kit video out there. This is everything that you could possibly need if you want to start this business. If I left things out of this video he would come across jobs that you would not be able to do.
you have a lot of helpful tips! great advice and i highly recommend people watch... BUUT..... dont buy the email. lol. my 8 year old can type up a better email than that.
@@ChanneledByRUclips I hear you. I offered it with a three dollar price tag because everyone is wondering how they can compensate me. I sell no courses nor sell any equipment.

Dont use the discount cleaning products!!!!!! My order was "shipped" 2 weeks ago. Just got an email that they wont even be shipping it out for 5 weeks. Im trying to email/ call / IM the company, and nothing.
Hey, I’ve used them for quite some time. The fact that it’s not gonna arrive for five weeks is not their fault. If you look across-the-board, the supply chain is screwed right now with everything that is going on. Prices are getting inflated and things are getting harder and harder to get.

@@stefan4165 I hear you. I like Pressuretek too. Sorry you’ve had a not so good experience. You can most likely find this unit on another website I’m just not sure of the price and if it will be the same.

I'd also like to see this
Thank you for the break down!👍🏾
Hi Austin, you list all the equipment we need for pressure washing, what about the tanks? Don't we need that too?
Not for this setup you don’t. This setup you can connect straight to the spigot
Pressure washer products has the Honda/AR 5gpm belt drive for $1333. Includes 50' hose, gun wand assembly with tips and high draw injector w/quick connects.
Nice
But then you need your own tank I think right
@@sebastiaanvanderhoek8945 yes, any good pressure washer will have a buffer tank for supply and to keep the pump cool in bypass.
What’s your opinion on the Simpson 4400 PSI 4GPM pressure washer? It’s relatively cheap
Which brand for a 4gpm do you recommend BE, Simpson. So i got lucky and was able to get a contract on an entire townhome community and i was a semi nebbie at this but was able to pressure wash all 80 units driveways from a Dewalt 2.5 from home depot and then it gave out in the end.

Your the man bro 💯💯🫡🫡

The one that comes with the pressure washer is a long lance gun already put together. You’ll use that gun for your Pressure Washing . You’ll need a softwash gun set up for your pressure washer that you can downstream with
Which pressure would you choose if you had the money if California cannot get a Honda engine? It suggest a kohler but which is best?
Que buen video hermano
How about another video covering 2500 and 3000 ?
so what are you storing your chemical in? just a 1 or 5 gallon container or just leaving it in the bottles?

Here’s a question people may wonder can u use that 100 foot cord that’s rated 4200 psi on a 2700 psi machine?
Build your own pressure washer you will save a lot and have more money for other things like marketing

Lazy,...... do it yourself unless u need someone to hold ur hand.....
what are your thoughts on starting with just a good softwashing system (p40)? I was thinking If I needed it for a job Id rent a pressure washer until I could afford one.
But you can soft wash with a pressure washer. You cant pressure wash with a soft washer.
What orfice size for jrod for 4 gpm i need distance... i orderd 00040 and 00050. My 00030 was short and mistty😢
How about a 3400 machine?
so no issue running a 4gpm pw and 20" surf cleaner? what tips to use in surf cleaner.....25002 or 25025?
Going broke while investing is not the same as going broke while flexing
True.
Buy food or new pressure washer?
You need a van to start with, also.
Or a truck
Is there a big difference between the pressure pro hose and the be hose?
What if you take the risk and go with no insurance or llc until start to create revenue. But will still market
Aren’t ball valves detrimental to the pressure washer motor ?
What would be the lowest gpm or Psi Machine minimum requirements that I can start with,on a lower budget?Thanks
Can these same products be bought off of Amazon without losing the quality?
Not sure. Haven’t looked into it. I’m sure some of these stuff you can get off Amazon. I would just buy it from a legit commercial pressure washing distributor
What kind of chemical I can use to wash concrete and roof.
@AustinDavis24 could I get a truck with flatbed or is it better to have a regular bed? Looking at flatbeds but also 8' beds.
Ether works!

any recommendations on how to handle 100' of pressure washer hose if not installing a reel on your trailer?
For storage try a 5 gallon bucket or plastic tote. Or if you have somewhere on your trailer to hang it you can roll it up and wrap it with a bungee type cord and hang it.

What exactly is so bad about a Triple A( AAA) pump?

Is anybody from Colorado? When I looked up the law it said chemical use is strictly prohibited, is there something I am missing?

Does the pressure washing machine come with a gun similar to the M hydro premium spray gun mentioned?
Yes. You can use that gun as well. But you’re gonna want that to be your designated Lance gun.
How does this set up pull from the soap bucket ?
You can use this set up and use the downstreamer. Just install the downstreamer and put the tube in a 5 gallon bleach bucket
