    I'm starting a driveway cleaning (pressure washing) business. I charge $100 an hour.

    I advertised to 1 street of 25 houses and got 4 contracts.

    My first one was today and was really huge. I did it in 4 hours and 30min... that was a nice little $450 check.

    I think this is going to be great. There are 5,800+ houses in just my city.

    I suspect that the "average" parking pad will take about 1 1/2-2 hours.

    What kind of investment did you put into the equipment?

    Great Idea......The good ole' home business !

    Where you get the water....use theirs or do you have a water truck??

    Good idea. Take it a step farther and start staining them as well. Your already there and you got the equipment !!

    I use their water. I do have a 550 gallon drum but it only lasts about an hour and 1 half.

    I do maintain an internet business as well.

    I took 15 oil stains of my driveway with my 4,000psi steam cleaner and HEAVY DUTY degreaser. :D
