Post by: Adam_london_uk on April 10, 2009, 03:43:55 pm

Hi guys,

how much is an average machine for residential customers. Everyday use. Im guessing the £90 one down at argos aint no good.

Fell free to post...

Thanks
Adam

For a decent but basic set up with hp hoses, lances, nozzles, reservoir tank and FSC you're looking minimum of near enough £3000 and then as you go along you'll find that you need more stuff to be able to answer all questions asked during the course of cleaning.


PPE also essential as are a few spares and tools just in case.

I use and always recommend Malcolm Smith.

Top bloke who knows his stuff.

Tell him what you're looking for and intended use etc. He'll put you right.
