Title: How long to clean 5 square metres of pavement
Post by: Rob125 on January 26, 2011, 02:55:39 pm

Hi - bit of a random one - but someone requested to clean 5 square metres of pavement outside of their drive (it is on a main street) - said that that would not meet minimum charges - but just wondering how long would an 'average' take - with a 3000 psi pressure washer and turbo lance?
(have only done pavements ages ago - mainly do stones etc. and from memory the take quicker than block paving / stone??)
cheers,
Rob

I'd double check their measurements as 5 sq m wouldn't be worth the bother on it's own. Whatever you charge you'll sound expensive and word travels quickly.

If you have a trailer set up or similar and driving past then £20 for 10 minutes couldn't hurt.
