Pressure washing prices: what should you charge?
Pressure washing is usually priced per job or per square foot. Here are the typical ranges pros report, and how to price your own work so it is worth it.
Most pressure washing pros quote a flat price by surface, or roughly $0.10 to $0.80 per square foot depending on the surface and how dirty it is. Soft washing a house often runs more than blasting a driveway.
Typical prices
| Job | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Driveway or walkway | $100 – $250 |
| House soft wash | $250 – $600 |
| Deck or patio | $150 – $350 |
| Roof cleaning | $300 – $600 |
| Per square foot | $0.10 – $0.80 |
These are general ranges reported across the US, not a quote. Your prices depend on your market, your costs and the specific job. Always price to cover your own numbers.
What affects the price
- Surface type and size
- How dirty or stained it is
- Soft wash vs pressure wash
- Water access and setup
- Travel and your local market
