😳
Get it bud💪🏽
Love the setup
i just bought a truck on auction and getting it shipped. ive learned all my information from you and cant wait to finally apply it and get out there 🙏 thank you Austin!!
That's awesome
Just remember that when you are self-employed you have zero benefits, pay social security self employment tax (double the regular rate), and if you are injured, you have zero protection. It's not an easy life.
You can earn $150k pressure washing. However a new hire at Google earns $165k + benefits right out of college.
@@user-sw8et6jc2rur right about all of that. But Google only hires people that are smart. Not everyone is smart. Also working for someone else means they own u. They can fire u when they want, change rules and policies when they want, u have to be there everyday, u only have so much personal and sick time off from them, they only increase ur pay when they want to. They will make ur work for the same pay but expect u to always do more. As a company owner the ability to make more money is basically unlimited and up to u. U can start work when u want u can be sick and not worry about getting fired, u can take as many days off that u want and so on. U are ur own boss. U are right about self employment tax. But the more money u make the easier it is to pay that tax. U also get right offs which lower ur taxes. Unlike when ur a employee u can't really wite off anything. U pay based off the tax bracket ur in. If everyone had the same mindset as u no one would own a business. Tik tok, facebook, Google and so on wouldn't even exist. But if u plan on starting a business and always work for ur company and never have employees then ur doing it wrong. U wanna grow ur business to the point where u hire people to do ur job while u sit at home or start other business's and make money or more money.
@@user-sw8et6jc2r that’s true they own you for 40 hours a week minimum there is no way I could go to a office or cubicle for 40 hours a week. I want to be able to takeoff when I want to takeoff have long weekends all that is you have your own business and you take all the extra money and put it aside for retirement invested properly, and then you have the best of both worlds. once I became self-employed in 1994 I never looked back. It was an easy, but it was worth it.
I "Really Really" like your videos! 😄
I love your honesty too lol
Great clean
Hey Austin, I recently started my pressure washing business I’ve tried several commercial jobs but it’s just either no higher ups are there or they have “corporate” who does it which is a lie buildings look like a mess. How do you go about reaching them and trying to land the commercial job?
always have a question about the awning. since you used 6% did you discolor or damage the awning?
Loved the vid and F the thief
Quick thoughts as you've noticed I'm new in the comments, researching the field. Would love this course that covers the business aspect of things.
If you want to include in the course or make a video maybe on the supply of bleach. I'm not sure if it's a temporary boom in the price but I can't seem to find anything less than $6 a gallon on a 150 mi radius. Just waiting back on a quote from Univar Solutions. My best bet right now is Walmart 10% for $5/gal.
About the electric hose reels, would it be more efficient if the reel would be on a remote so you can be at the end of the hose holding the gun and pressing a button on the remote to roll it up?
Thank you, keep up the good work
Hey man! Nothing much I can do about your bleach problem. I would reach out to your competitors and ask where they are getting it. I get it locally. Also, I don’t believe a remote reel exists. Even if it did, I have to many remotes for my equipment haha
Hey Austin I would love to know what tips you have on your jrod for the softwash
What size softwash hose is that and brand?
Was the roof too soft for a turbo nozzle?
Yo Austin just thought I would let you know that your website gallery page is broken as well as a few other pages
Where can I get one of them m5 ?
Looks like a painted soldered zinc roof
You've been doing a lot of commercial jobs lately, and I can see why-the money is better.
do you know how you can downstream with a 8 gal machine while controlling what percentage of bleach is coming out?
I mean if your downstreaming it’s pulling 10/1
So your gonna pull 1% and 1% only
@@AustinDavis24 do you need a soft wash machine to put out anything higher than 1 percent
When you blow off all those leaves do you pick them up?
No, not to this degree. The had a whole fields area covered with leaves so i moved them there with the blower as the customer told me i could
If I just watch to the end I would find out. 😂
I'm new to Austin where I'm a visiting professor at UT from Britain. I must say that one thing that shocks me is the heavy use of chemicals, I had my patio and roof cleaned and was shocked to see that the person allowed the chemicals to go into my pool. He said they were safe but if they were, why did he wear heavy rubber gloves! I expected better.
Leave politics at home. This is business.
@@vampirehunter2698 What politics? I said nothing at all about politics but asked about the practice of washing chemicals into a pool...where my kids swim. If you consider worrying about my kids politics, then fine! I also don't see anything political in questioning some of Texas' environmental regulations, especially given the weather and disasters we've had lately.
@user-sw8et6jc2r the chemical they used to clean the exterior of ur house and roof is bleach. Also know as sodium hypochlorite. The reason they are wearing gloves is because the bleach is at suck a high percentage rate it could cause a chemical burn on their skin. However, the high percent of bleach they use going into the pool will not hurt anyone because u have so much water in the pool that it would dilute the bleach they are using and make it safe for people to get in the pool. Chlorine is also sodium hypochlorite. Keep in mind that if the people who cleaned ur house buys their bleach in bulk they can get 12.5% bleach/sodium hypochlorite strength. If they know what they are doing they would never use 12.5% bleach at all on ur house whether it's on the roof or house. That's way to strong and a waist of money. They dilute their bleach. So if they did ur roof they mixed have water and have bleach which would be about 6% bleach sprayed on ur roof. That's the strongest professionals would use on ur roof and dilute it even more depending on ur roofs material and how dirty it is. On ur house they would dilute the 12.5% bleach down so much to get around 1 to maybe 1.5% bleach content. And depending on the material ur siding is and how dirty it is they may bump it up to a higher bleach strength. So the bleach going in ur pool is ok and safe for u and ur family. Now as far as why they are wearing protective equipment is because they work with this stuff everyday all day. It's like when u have a xray and u wear the lead vest wire the xray tech runs and hides and gets away from u as far as possible. Even though they are not directly exposed to the radiation this is their job and do it all day. So little by little they would cause themselves harm. If they only were to be exposed to it non directly say only once a month they wouldn't go hide from it like u see them do.
@@user-sw8et6jc2rhe wears rubber gloves since he’s around chemicals all day, and whatever his work week is. Whatever he is most likely bleach and some soap. Which would be heavily diluted by the time it got into your pool.
The chemicals are basically soap and pool cleaner.......so if anything they should be upcharging you for pool services.
I need help with batch mixing. I'm getting a Northstar soft wash system. It only has a 14 gallon tank. How do I figure out what I need.
Check out Kurt's Pressure Washing , he breaks it down in a video very simply.
@@destinationom need help on learning on have to batch wash. I'm working with a Northstar soft wash system.
@@gregbecker2723it's all easy math to an extent. It really all depends on what % bleach your using and how many gallons ur tank is for batch mixing. Say u have a 10 gallon batch tank and u are using say 6% gallon jugs of bleach. If u put 5 gallons of 6% bleach in the 10 gallon tank and then 5 gallons of water that would give u a 3% bleach strength. Say u need a 1.5% bleach strength but are still using 6% 1 gallon jugs. Then u would add 2 and a half gallons of 6% bleach and fill the rest with water. That would give u 1.5% bleach strength. So in a empty 10 gallon batch tank that would be 2.5 gallons of bleach and 7.5 gallons of water =1.5 bleach strength. When it comes to say getting a 1% 2% 4% 5% bleach strength the formula would be a little different. If u were doing a roof and u were gonna need 6% bleach strength then just add 10 gallons of 6% bleach in the 10 gallon batch tank. Other things that will effect ratios is if u needed less then 10 gallons or if u had a 12, 15, 20 or bigger gallon batch mixing tank. If u go to his channel and find one of the first few videos he has posted he explains how to do the formula way better and breaks it down for u. U may need a calculator especially if ur using a bleach strength higher or lower then 6% bleach strength. I only used 6% bleach strength in gallon jugs as a example because the hottest strength u would probably ever use is 6% and its easier to devide. If u bought bleach in bulk it could come in a bleach strength anywhere from 6% up to 12.5% and maybe even 13% bleach strength. Math would still be the same though, u would just need more water to delute down more to the percent u would need based off of job. The problem with batch mixing is if u mix a batch at say 3% bleach strength and don't use it all then go to another job where u need a lower or higher bleach strength then the math gets even harder to figure out and most of the time it will be way to strong or not strong enough. That's why when u batch mix u wanna try to mix less then what u may need even if u have to make several batches to get the job done. It'd better then having a left over batch and trying to add more water or more bleach to get different strengths for different jobs.
Ryan trahan… is that you🥺😋
yes
Hey Austin my name is Ashton i am 13 and have made 5k this month. Any i delays on what I should reinvest in I have a 4pm machine and 20inch be surface cleaner what other equipment should I invest in. Thanks for all the great videos.
If your 13, Keep stacking cash brother. You cant drive so im not sure how your making this money. But anyway, if your able to maintain this, Keep doing exactly what your doing until you 16 and can drive a truck. By then you should have incredible amount of money saved and we can have this discussion again. Keep kicking ass
Hey I have a question if you can get back to me
What’s up
@@AustinDavis24 when you do these jobs do you use their water? If so how do you go about making that clear with clients/how do you go about asking?
Commercial jobs let you use their water as long as you have a special key to open up the water utility box. Some homeowners don't want you to use their water so they call tankers instead.@@GraveDiggaTV
@Top_Tales l make my money off my computer bringing in 6-8k a month & currently trying to launch a side business (because my funds come primarily come from trading)I’m not really a social person so I just want tips on conversational approaches please leave me alone & get some money before you fall behind in this economy😂ps I’m 19 with my own everything💰
@@GraveDiggaTVbottom line, if a customer doesn’t want you using their water walk away from that job. The amount of water you use is not gonna cost anyone that much. Don’t ask them to use their water, TELL them your using their water.

*hey I'm professional thumbnail designer on fiver I can design your thumbnails eye catching*
Instead of dickin' with the % of your chemical, you could have just actually PRESSURE washed it. Dude, you're mostly doing SOFT washing. You're not really blasting away the dirt and mold.
Lol… I don’t know if you have any idea of what your ACTUALLY doing. I think your user name says it all
Views are dwindling. People don’t seem to be interested in your content.
I'm interested. I love his vids
