How much start up cost is involved? How lucrative can this business potentially be?Does anyone know how good a mobile pressure washing business is?
~READ ME~ I CAN HELP!!
Depends on how many employees you intend to initially have. If you plan to have, lets say, 2 employees at first. Each has to have a truck, a uniform, a commercial pressure washer, and miscellaneous equipment, ok? Each truck, maybe two used ones at $9,000. 2 Commercial Pressure Washers @ $1,300 each. Let's say 3 uniforms per employee @ $30 each. And miscellaneous equipment @ $75 a month.
I would say you're looking at about $25,000 in start up costs, which isn't bad in comparison to other business ventures. But still a lot of money.
Depending on how much you are planning to charge - I would suggest charging by the square foot - it will probably take you 2-3 years to turn a profit if you are successful.
Now check by yourself if you can see use for a pressure-washing business in your area. - Is there graffiti anywhere- that would be the most common use, probably. Also pressure washers can be used for refinishing pools, so if you can partner up with someone who does something like that - all the better for you.
Also - profit is majorly determined by how and how much you are visible to your potential customers. You need to advertise - and to the right people.
Also, advertising is very expensive, no matter which way you chose.
So decide, is this business present a large enough opportunity to make a profit - That's the decision maker.
Good luck and I hope this helps.Does anyone know how good a mobile pressure washing business is?
Hopefully all pressure washing businesses are mobile, people can't bring their houses to you unless they live in a trailer, in that case you don't want to get it pressure washed because it might cave in.
The start up costs should be minimal you'll need the machine any cleaning materials and advertising costs. Also you have to be able to get business my sister's husband made good washing cars for dealerships
