Pressure Washers face unique challenges: Scheduling around weather — rain cancels everything. Giving accurate estimates without seeing the property first. Managing recurring customers (house wash every year, driveway every 2 years). Tracking chemical costs and usage per job. Customers ghosting after you send a quote. On top of all that, QuickBooks charges $38/month ($456/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median pressure washer earns $45,000/year. Software at $456/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Pressure washer units (hot and cold) is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

Most of my jobs are driveways, house siding, decks and fences, and knowing when not to use pressure is the skill. Siding and roofs get a soft wash: low pressure with a cleaning solution that kills the mildew and algae, rinsed carefully so I don't force water behind the siding or strip paint. Concrete gets a surface cleaner at high pressure for an even finish without stripes, with a degreaser on oil stains first. Wood decks are delicate; too much pressure raises the grain and leaves marks, so I clean gently and often recommend sealing afterwards as a second job. Before I start I'm walking the property, covering plants, taping outlets and lights, and pointing out anything that's already damaged so nobody blames me for it. I haul my own water tank for houses where the supply is weak. Chemicals have to be mixed, stored and disposed of properly. The season is spring through fall, so I'm booking regulars for annual cleans and adding commercial work, storefronts, dumpster pads and gas stations, to keep busy.
