Practical exterior cleaning solutions for real people, by a real person
Who is Tim George?
I grew up locally in Brunswick, and graduated Brunswick High School in the 1990's. I have very deep ancestral roots in both Frederick County, MD and Loudoun County, VA - dating back to British Colonial America. What started as looking for a way to offset a new truck payment in 2019 has gradually turned into a real business. As someone who has worked various cleaning jobs, including stripping and waxing tile floors, the pressure washing industry immediately appealed to me. Over time, and after a lot of industry research, I have learned how to properly invest in better equipment, building a proper curbside rig with enough water volume to reach as high as needed, usually without needing a ladder.
A Business Philosophy
for the People
It is my belief that the only way to ever really build a successful business is for the owner to become personally, directly involved in every aspect of the business. I am always learning, and trying to improve my systems. Not just the washing, but I oversee all of the marketing, accounting, inventory and ordering, repairs and maintenance, and the website & social media. Admittedly, some of these things have never been the types of things that I've been very good at, but cleaning stuff is something that I have always been good at, and as long as I can be good at pressure washing, I figure the rest will sort itself out.
"It is entirely possible for busy people to do this entire process without ever having to actually physically be at home or schedule meeting us in person, if that is their preference or what their schedule dictates."
Many businesses have a philosophy of pouring huge amounts of money into marketing, particularly where their website and "SEO" are concerned. This creates an unnaturally large lead flow which allows them to set very high prices - knowing that they don't need a high conversion rate. As a growing company, Tim George Pressure Washing seeks to eliminate the need for unnecessary middle men. Our pricing structure does need to cover things like the cost of our website, equipment and tools, business liability insurance, health insurance, 3 - 4 months of off-season, taxes, and other expenditures.......but that doesn't mean we have to charge you $800 for something that will take 2 hours. You can expect a basic house wash on a 2,5000 square foot home, with no promotions or special pricing, to cost somewhere between $400 - $500.
Making it easy for You!
What is the estimate, cleaning, and payment process like?
Contacting us about a service has never been easier than it is now, with links to estimate forms in various places on the website. Quite a few people still prefer to call on the phone at 3014016070, but the entire process for having really any type of home service done is much more seamless than it used to be. We still like to do in person estimates for certain jobs, but it is entirely possible and acceptable to have estimates done remotely for very basic services, as we can use square footage from realtor sites, Google Earth, or have customers just text or email image attachments.
​
We will typically need space for a truck and trailer - usually in front of the house. It is important for us to be able to freely go in and out of gates, and usually best for pets to be kept inside during the cleaning process. In some cases, we may request the temporary parking of your vehicle away from the house, but this is usually not necessary. Obviously, garage doors and windows should be closed as well. One other thing that sometimes is an issue, particularly early in the spring, is that the water lines going to your outside spigot be turned on.
​
Payment - Upon job completion and after a successful inspection by you, the customer, we accept all the usual forms of payment. Cash, check, or card.
​
We have an integrated Customer retention management software, fully integrated with the lead forms on our website. Customers who are not from the website are entered into this database manually, and it is here where these estimates, if accepted by the customer, are turned into work orders, scheduled, and then turned into customer invoices, which are emailed upon job completion. Card payments are simply entered manually by the customer, without the need for a physical card swipe.
