Thinking about starting a pressure washing business? Start here. 💦

Buying a pressure washer is the easy part. Building a professional pressure washing business means knowing your equipment, understanding the property in front of you, spotting potential problems before you start cleaning, and setting the right expectations with your customer.

In this training video, Josh Wagner walks through:

🔧 The basic pro-level setup you need to get started
🏠 How to evaluate a typical residential property
👀 Trouble spots to identify before you begin
🤝 How to manage customer expectations
🛡️ Steps that can help protect you and your business
🧼 Equipment, accessories, and cleaning products used for different applications

Because running a power washing business is about a lot more than pulling a trigger.

The equipment gets you started.

Knowing how to use it (and how to approach the entire job) is what helps you operate like a professional.

The biggest machine on your truck isn't always the thing that stops the job.

Sometimes it’s something small.

An O-ring. A nozzle. A fitting. A worn section of hose.

Professional contractors don't just think about what they need when everything is working. They think about what they'll need when something isn't.

Make equipment inspection part of your routine and keep common wear items and replacements close by.

Because your customer isn't paying you to drive back to the shop.

What’s the one spare part you ALWAYS keep on your truck?

“How much PSI does it have?”

It’s one of the first questions people ask when shopping for a pressure washer.

But it shouldn’t be the only one.
PSI matters. So does GPM.

Flow affects how much water you're moving, and that can have a major impact on productivity, rinsing, and what your setup can accomplish.

That’s why we’d rather start with different questions:

💦 What are you cleaning?
💦 How often are you cleaning it?
💦 What kind of productivity do you need?
💦 How much reach does the job require?

The best pressure washer isn't automatically the one with the highest PSI. It's the one that makes sense for your work.

Not sure what you need? That’s exactly the kind of conversation we have every day at Atlantic Pressure Washers.

Soft washing isn’t about finding one chemical mix and using it on everything. 💦

The surface matters. The stain matters. The chemistry matters.

In this soft wash tutorial, the Dirt Killer team breaks down the fundamentals behind choosing the right cleaning approach, including:

🧼 Sanitizers, degreasers & acids
🏠 Vinyl, stucco & other exterior surfaces
💦 General chemical ratios and mixing considerations
🏡 Roof and asphalt shingle cleaning
🧱 Concrete, stone & walkways
🟠 Rust and mineral staining
⚖️ pH, neutralization & why chemistry matters
The takeaway? Know what you’re cleaning before you decide how to clean it.

Whether you're new to the pressure washing business or want to sharpen your process, this seminar is packed with practical knowledge you can take to the jobsite.

Your pressure washer usually gives you clues before it gives you problems. 👀

A change in pressure. Pulsing. A leak you’ve been ignoring. A new sound or vibration. A machine that suddenly doesn’t perform the way it normally does.

Those little changes deserve attention.

And before you assume the most expensive component has failed, start with the basics: water supply, nozzle, hoses, fittings, filters, connections, and other wear items.

That’s one of the differences between simply using equipment and really knowing your equipment.

Catching an issue at the shop can mean replacing a wear item or making an adjustment.

Ignoring it can mean discovering the problem when the machine is supposed to be making you money.

🔧 Something not right with your pressure washer?

When was the last time you really looked over your pressure washer?

Fall is the perfect time to give your equipment a checkup.

Inspect your hoses. Check your fittings. Look at your nozzles. Clean your filters. Address those little leaks you've been ignoring.

Because the small issue you notice in the shop is a lot easier to deal with than the breakdown that happens in the middle of a job.

And with cooler temperatures on the way, now is the time to start thinking about winterization.

What's the best chemical for the job?

The answer depends on what you're actually trying to remove.

Grease, rust, organic growth and everyday grime aren't the same problem, so they shouldn't always get the same solution.
One of the easiest ways to improve your cleaning process is to identify the stain first and match your chemistry accordingly.

What stain gives you the biggest headache?

More pressure isn't always the answer.

When you're dealing with dirty concrete, the right pre-treatment can help loosen the grime before your surface cleaner gets to work.

The result? A more efficient cleaning process and a better finish.

🍂 Wags' Fall Tip: Let your chemicals do some of the heavy lifting.

Save this one for your next concrete job.
