Pressure Washing Commercial Buildings, Is It A Good Idea?

robertpaint

When I'm driving, more often than not I see commercial buildings that are leasing that are very dirty.

Do you think it's a good idea to call the leasing office and asking them if they would like to have that certain property pressure washed?

I mean, when you are trying to sell your car, you wash it first. Wouldn't that also apply to buildings that are trying to lease?

Make's sense to me.

You would think so..

Can't hurt to try it.

What I have run into in the residential market is this weird aversion to spend money on something that is being sold. My thinking is the same as yours.. The moment someone pulls up to the curb they are going to form an opinion of the home and property. If the concrete is clean and white, the siding free from mold and dirt, and the windows are sparkling next to that freshly oiled deck, the potential buyer is going to be impressed, right? People don't have that mentality. They have, already in their minds, reversed ownership and are very short sighted. Its very bizzare. I have bought quite a few vehicles and when the thing was dirty I immediately started thinking "what else is wrong with it?"

I find the same thing in my area. Especially with homeowners selling, they just don't want to spend the money. I always get the question "can't you just blast the deck and slap some stain on it to make it look better?"

I actively solicit...

Some people act as though I was from mars,
but others are intelligent enough to at least listen to a short, well presented pitch on the benefits of a clean business being more inviting to the public.

Do it!

I don't know what kind of experiences other people have had, but I do residential only now. Commercial properties always go with the cheapest bid, take thirty days to pay and have no loyalty. Residential customers generally are not price shopping, pay immediatly, and will call you back next year.
