Water Reclaimer & tips?

[pivster29]

I just got in this business. What is the deal with reclaiming the water. I have my first job on monday. There is a moss problem.

I was also wondering what kind of chemicals would be good for concrete driveways.

Also different tips. Where could i get different nozzles and what is each one meant for.

Also i was asked to bid on pressure cleaning a house. What type of nozzle would be good for stucco. without damaging the stucco or taking off the paint.

I am new to this industry and have good intentions to do well. I am 20 years old and doing this all by myself. I go to devry university full time, have a part time job on the side and now this business. If you guys have any helpful tips to make my learning expirence easier I would really appreciate it.

Seriously take a step back. The damage you could do to one stucco house would be more than you can make in a year. If you are looking at moss is it on the roof? Another area you could seriously damage a home.There is alot to learn before buying a machine and going for it. You will find many people willing to help you out but you need to investigate and research a little bit before opening shop. This is expected in every business not just pressure washing.

Congratulations for being enthusiastic and industrious, just don't jump into thing before you are ready. Just because startup costs seem cheap, ( a common misconception when done properly) doesn't make it easy to do. You could find yourself with several upset homeowners wanting their damages fixed NOW. You could also find yourself being fined by the E.P.A or what ever the CA state water quality agency is and just about any other CA gov't agency. California is one of the more strict states when it comes to water quality enforcement. Take the time investigate everything and then start doing the jobs the right way.
