First contact
Missed call (pressure washing)Text
Hi, it's [name] with [business]. Sorry I missed your call. I'm on a job with the machine running and will call you back by [time]. If it's easier, text me what you'd like cleaned (house, driveway, deck, fence, roof) and a photo or two, and I'll get you a price.
Web lead reply: photos and sizesText
Hi [first name], thanks for reaching out to [business]. A few quick questions so I can price it: 1. What would you like cleaned? (house siding, driveway, patio or walks, deck, fence, roof, gutters) 2. A photo of each from a few steps back, plus a close-up of any mold, algae, or oil stains. 3. Rough sizes if you know them (driveway length x width, how many stories, fence length). 4. Is there a working outside water spigot? 5. Your address, so I can check it on the map.
Tip: Photos and the address are often enough for a firm price on driveways and one-story houses. For roofs, two-story homes, or heavy staining, offer a quick walkaround.
Quotes and booking
Sending the quoteText
Hi [first name], here's your quote: [link]. Each surface has its own line with the size, so you can see what's covered. Total is [$][, or [$] each time if you book a repeat wash]. Some stains (rust, oil) may fade but not come out all the way, and I'll point those out before I start. The quote is good until [date]. Reply YES to book.
Tip: Price it first with the free pressure washing price calculator, then save the quote as a PDF and paste the link where [link] is.
Booking confirmationText
You're booked, [first name]. [Day, date], arrival window [window]. We'll need the outside water spigot and about [hours] on site. I'll text the night before with a short prep list. Need to change it? Just reply here.
Night before: prep listText
Hi [first name], [business] here. See you tomorrow at [time]. A few things that help: - Move cars off the driveway and away from the house - Close all windows and doors (and the garage door) - Make sure the outside water spigot is on and works - Bring in pets, and move grills, planters, and patio furniture away from the walls - Unlock the side gate if you won't be home We'll wet down plants before and after. Thanks!
Tip: Send it the evening before, not the morning of, so there's time to move cars and find the gate key.
On the job
Weather rescheduleText
Hi [first name], [rain / high wind] is in the forecast for [day], so we're moving your wash to keep the soft wash mix where it belongs and get a clean result. Does [new day, window] work? If not, reply with a day that's better. Nothing changes on the price.
Tip: Text as soon as you decide, and offer a specific new day.
Before we start: existing damage or stubborn stainsText
[First name], before we start I took photos of a few things already there: [e.g. "loose siding on the back corner, chalky paint on the north wall, a crack in the driveway"]. We'll wash around them carefully. The [rust / oil] stain by [spot] may fade but not come out all the way. OK to go ahead?
Tip: Get a reply before you start, and keep the photos with the job.

AI prompt with a pressure washing example
AI prompt: turn walkaround notes into a clear quoteAI prompt
Turn my walkaround notes into a quote I can send. One line per surface with its size (square feet, or linear feet for a fence). Note heavy mold, algae, or oil stains on the line they apply to. List add-ons separately. Add one short line about stains that may not come out all the way. Don't make up prices: put [$] where each price goes. My notes: [e.g. "2-story vinyl, about 2,400 sq ft, green on the north side; driveway 30 x 30 with oil by the garage; deck 16 x 20; fence 120 ft one side; gutters 140 ft"] My minimum charge: [e.g. "$175"]
