What should a pressure washing business put on an invoice?
Pressure washing invoices price most jobs by area or as a flat rate per surface, so list driveways, siding, and decks separately with their size. Add soft washing and sealing as their own lines. Recording the square footage and surfaces cleaned shows the customer how the total was reached.
Your invoice needs the basics plus job specifics that matter for pressure washing. Include the property address you worked on, not just the client's billing address. Break down what you cleaned: driveway, house siding, deck, fence, whatever. Note the square footage if you charged by area. If you applied any treatments like mildew remover or sealant, list those separately. Clients forget what they agreed to, and their accountants want to see exactly what they paid for.
Most pressure washers take a deposit for bigger jobs, usually 25-50% upfront. Residential work under $500 often gets paid on completion. Commercial clients will want Net 30 terms, which means you wait a month to get paid. For multi-day jobs, consider splitting it: half to start, half when done. This protects you if someone cancels halfway through.
Take before and after photos every single time. When clients question the invoice two weeks later saying you did not clean something, photos prove what you did. Send the invoice the same day you finish, while the clean driveway is still wet and they are happy. Wait three days and they have already forgotten how good it looks.

How the work is charged
Pressure washers charge by the square foot or a flat rate per surface, with pricing set by the job size and how dirty the surface is. Commercial and recurring contracts are often quoted at a set rate per visit.
Payment terms and deposits
Residential jobs are commonly paid on completion, often the same day. Larger or commercial work may take a deposit, and ongoing accounts can run on agreed net terms.
Tax and compliance
If you are registered for sales tax or VAT, show it as a separate line with your registration number. Whether cleaning services are taxable varies by region, so confirm what applies where you operate.
Frequently asked questions
How do pressure washers price services?
Pressure washing is priced per square foot ($0.15–$0.75) or flat rate per surface. Driveways $100–$300, house exteriors $200–$500, decks $150–$350. Commercial rates are higher for larger areas.
What should a pressure washing invoice include?
Include surfaces cleaned, square footage, cleaning method (pressure wash, soft wash), chemicals used, before/after photos, and any seal-coating or treatment applied afterward.
Should pressure washers offer seal coating after cleaning?
Yes. Offering driveway or deck sealing as an upsell adds value. Price sealant application at $0.20–$0.50/sq ft on top of the cleaning. It protects the surface and extends time between cleanings.
