Many new entrepreneurs are inclined to drop their prices in the beginning — it seems like the best way to get the contract. This inevitably leads to problems because business owners forget that clients still expect full-price results when paying discounted prices — which causes conflict and leads to bad reviews. It almost never leads to repeat work. When you’re just starting out, make sure to set prices that take your expenditures into consideration and stick with them. Do Spot Tests There are tons of different materials and types of build-up that one has to contend with as a paver power washing professional. No one expects anyone to get everything right immediately, but there’s a huge difference between needing to do some investigation before getting started and ruining an element of someone’s home. As power washing professionals, we often work with strong and dangerous chemicals. Take the time to test things out in an inconspicuous spot before beginning on the larger task. It ultimately saves time, money, and frustration.
