Estero, FL – 5 Tips for Hiring The Right Powerwashing Company | Underpressure

5 TIPS FOR HIRING THE RIGHT PRESSURE WASHING COMPANYIt’s the perfect time of year to get your roof, pavers, driveway or house pressure washed, because here in Southwest Florida it’s fairly dry right now. There’s a lot to consider when you are hiring a Powerwashing company though, so we’ve put together a quick guide to help keep you from getting overwhelmed, or ripped off. So here’s a few things to look for.

Testimonials and references—Nowadays there are so many places you can look to see if the company you are considering hiring to do your pressure washing job has good reviews and testimonials. In fact, right away when you google pressure washing in your area, you will most likely see not only the company’s website come up, but also, on the right hand side of your computer search, you should see a Google My Business listing, which will have reviews to look at. There are several things you should note about reviews. First of all, how many stars does the company have. Secondly, how many reviews is that based on? Finally, how recent are the reviews. Because a company might have five stars, based on five reviews that were put up two years ago and you don’t want to give them more credence than the company that has four and a half stars with 100 reviews and the most recent ones are from just a month ago. Once you’ve chosen a company, you may also want to ask them for several references so that you can call the former customers and find out what they think of the company.

Pricing—It’s always tempting to go with the cheapest option, but before you do that, find out what is covered, and make sure they don’t cut corners to keep the price low. Sometimes a bid comes in lower than all the others, but has hidden costs, or the company may add in repair charges later on. Again, check the reviews to see if anyone has mentioned them cutting corners.

Warranty or Guarantee—You want to choose a company that is honest and professional and one of the ways company’s prove this is by offering a warranty or guarantee on their services. That means if something goes wrong with the service, they will compensate you appropriately. When you sign a contract, make sure there is a guarantee written into it. At Under Pressure, we believe that if we leave a home without the homeowner completely excited and satisfied with the results of our work including roof cleaning and pressure washing, we have not finished our job. We are so sure you will be completely satisfied that we provide a complimentary 1-year warranty on all roof cleanings and driveway sealings.

Equipment, experience and licensing—It goes without saying that you want to hire a company that has professional, not consumer grade, equipment, and cleaners, and who has a lot of experience in doing this kind of thing. Most quality contractors use 5.5 gallons per minute cold water pressure washing units for residential use. Contractor grade cleaners are necessary in order to achieve quality results, without using high pressure, which could lead to damage. Pressure washing equipment is no joke, and if it’s not the right equipment, manned by someone who has a lot of experience with it, it could tear your screens in your lanai or on your house, etch patterns into the concrete on your driveway or the paint on your house, or ruin roof tiles. Pressure washing is a highly skilled job that requires the right level of experience and expertise. You are paying for professional services and the end result should look professional. The company should also hold a business license.

Insured—Make sure the company you hire has liability insurance. You never know what could go wrong when your property is being pressure washed, and you want to make sure the company can cover expenses should anything happen during the job. It could be something like tripping a breaker and not correcting it before leaving, which has the possibility of your freezer being off long enough to make the food in their defrost and go bad. In any case, the best bet is to be sure they are insured, just in case.

By following these simple steps, we know you will be able to find the right company for you, and of course we are hoping Under Pressure Cleaning and Sealing Services comes out at the top of your list. Give us a call today for a free estimate! 239-218-5085
