Power washing is a valuable service that takes time to perfect. A contractor that is available for either residential or commercial services should be able to answer a few basic questions before you move forward with their washing services. If they are unable to answer such questions or provide proof of satisfied clientele, you may want to call another contractor.
Saving time and money can be done easily by asking the right questions before you start, including:
LICENSING:
Asking if the contractor has a license for the company is essential. If they avoid the question or place little importance on your question, you may want to reconsider the company that you are about to use. Asking for proof of licensing over the phone, prior to the contractor arriving, should help speed up the process and avoid wasted time.
ENVIRONMENTAL STANDARDS:
Water Reclaimer Certification is required for professional mobile pressure washing services. All Certified Environmental Pressure Washing companies should possess such certification. This ensures the water used does not harm the environment and is disposed of or reused properly. If the contractor is hesitant to provide such certification, be weary since there are very high standards for environmental safety within the industry.
REFERENCES:
References and testimonials can come in handy, and upon calling a power washing contractor, you can ask for previous customers to call or for testimonials or for a site to refer to find online. Making sure the services are worthy of your time and money can save you a lot of hassle in the long run. If a company representative is hesitant to share customer experiences, there may be situations that they are not so proud to share, so be weary and look elsewhere.
SIDE NOTE: Not all power washers are certified, and it is not against the law to be uncertified. Although it is not illegal to be uncertified, the specific guidelines and direction contained in such courses helps to provide contractors with a higher level of service. To ensure you receive the best possible care from knowledgeable contractors, make sure they are certified.
Asking the three questions above can save you time, energy, and potential damage.
