idea?

Pressure Washer Telescoping


would work with out setting up all that scaffold. and the electric ones will work for a little bit of time, just remember to drain the water after every use and store them in a heated place in the winter.

Seriously Doc, if you want to get one, go gas or forget it. The one you see at your local what ever (Hardware, Fleet store, or Cannucky stand) really aren't gonna do what You want it to do. Works great for your typical home owner for some minor cleaning jobs. That's just not you.

we have always bought electric pressure washers and they do just fine most of the time. the gassers have alot more ***** but a gas engine that needs to be maintained. one of my buddies had an electric washer and tried to wash his wood deck and it didn't seem to be doing the job fast enough for him so he went and bought a gas powered washer, can't remember the brand but he ended up replacing a board or two cause he wasn't paying attention and splittered it. good investment just have to be a little more carful is all.

get a gas with a honda engine i cant remember the brand of pump but they crank out 3200 psi. that is all we use at work and they are amazing. pretty much all the electric ones suck. If you want a kicka** pressure washer get a Hotsy. they are worth every penny.
