5 Things to Consider When Hiring a Pressure Washing Company
Pressure washing often comes with a variety of terms and conditions. The bottom line is that it’s important to know what you want before you choose which company to hire. This includes knowing if they offer an onsite location or not, the type of equipment they have, their warranties and more! That way, you can make sure there won’t be any surprises later. Here are five things to consider when hiring a pressure washing company.
Equipment
I’ve found that it can be hard to tell what type of equipment a company has. Some people say that it’s the size of the machinery that is most important, but there are also other factors. For example, some equipment is better at cleaning certain things more effectively. If you are trying to clean heavy grease or dirt, you might want to consider hiring a stronger machine. If you need something lighter duty, like cleaning the outside of your home or a small business establishment, then hiring a weaker machine might be fine. If not, then there is really no reason to settle for anything less than what you need.
Onsite Location
Another factor that can affect cost is whether or not they have an onsite location to do the job from. Many companies will charge extra for travelling and set up and tear down fees if they don’t have their own office nearby. It may end up costing the same price as hiring someone local who has everything in one place. So, ask yourself: will it really save me money by getting a company that doesn’t have their own place? For example we are located in Charlotte, NC and here is a map of where we service.
It’s also worth considering if this company has insurance and liability protection. This is one of the most important things to look for when hiring a company, and it can be enough reason to hire them over another company that doesn’t have such coverage. Look around the website of each potential company to see if they list insurance or not or find out if you need to ask them directly.
Availability
Lastly, don’t forget that you might want an option to call service again after your job is done. It’s always nice to know you can get in touch with this person and their business later if something happens down the line! Many companies offer extended warranties and guarantees so feel free to ask about these too!
Online Presence
One of the best ways to learn about a company is from their online reviews. Make sure you read both the pros and cons of each review to get an idea of what other people’s experiences have been like. The BBB website also offers a lot of valuable information about companies, including history, licensing status and complaint records, so make sure you check out that option too! Yelp and Google Maps are also great places to look for information but remember that many people might not leave feedback on these sites. That’s why it’s always good to ask for references and look at the company’s previous work for yourself before hiring them.
Hiring a power washing business is not as simple as it seems. You need to consider several factors before settling on the best one for your needs, such as their equipment and location, liability insurance coverage (and if they offer extended warranties), availability after the job is complete, online reviews and references. We hope that this article has helped you make an informed decision about hiring a power washing service!
