Websites for pressure cleaners and soft washers that let the before-and-after photos do the persuading, explain how you price a driveway or a roof, and take a photo of the job with the quote request.
Pressure cleaning is easy to show and hard to price over the phone. Homeowners want to see a stained driveway come up clean, get a rough idea of cost, and feel sure you won't damage their roof, render or pavers. Real estate agents, strata managers and shop owners bring a second set of questions about insurance, timing and invoices.
A driveway half-done with a clean line down the middle, a mossy roof beside the same roof a day later, a grey timber deck back to its original colour. Pairs taken from the same angle and grouped by surface (driveways and paths, roofs, house washes, decks, pool surrounds, commercial and graffiti) let a customer find a job like theirs. A slider that drags between the two photos works well on a phone.
If you price on area, surface and condition, perhaps with a minimum charge, say how you work it out: a rate per square metre for flat concrete, a set price for a standard single or double driveway, roofs priced on size and pitch, sealing quoted separately. Starting prices with what each includes give genuine customers a number to plan around before they call.
Customers worry about blasting the paint off their render or cracking roof tiles. Explain which surfaces get high pressure (concrete, pavers, brick), which get a low-pressure soft wash with a cleaning solution (roofs, render, weatherboards, painted surfaces), and what that solution means for gardens, pets and pools, in your words. It saves repeating the explanation on every call.
The form asks for the suburb, the surfaces to clean, a rough size (or the number of bedrooms for a house wash), when it was last cleaned and whether sealing is wanted, plus a field for photos. A picture of the driveway or roof tells you more than a paragraph of description, and lets you price many jobs without driving out first.
Councils, strata managers and commercial clients may ask where your runoff goes. The NSW EPA's stormwater guidance for small businesses says runoff from any washing activity must not enter stormwater drains, and that it's against the law to put material where it can flow into a waterway and pollute it. If you use drain covers, bunding or a recovery vacuum, or collect wastewater for proper disposal, describe your method on the site.
Roof cleaning means working at height, so describe in your own words how you work safely up there and when you'll turn down a roof that isn't safe. Homes built before 1990 can contain asbestos inside and out, including asbestos cement roofs and fences. The Commonwealth's Asbestos and Silica Safety and Eradication Agency says it is illegal in all Australian states to use high-pressure water spray on asbestos materials; Queensland's Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011, section 446, is one example. If you won't clean those surfaces, saying so up front saves everyone a wasted call.
Property managers want end-of-lease and pre-sale washes at short notice; strata managers want common areas, car parks and building facades done on a schedule; shop owners want graffiti gone before opening. A section for them covers your public liability insurance, after-hours work, how you invoice and how you send photos of the finished job.
We haven't built a site for a pressure cleaning business, so we won't present one as if we had. The two nearest are Phoenix Housekeeping, a NSW cleaning business that publishes its prices, and Tomi's Bobcat and Excavation, whose site is built around a large photo gallery. Between them they cover the two things a pressure cleaner's site relies on: prices people can read and photos that show the result.
A family-run cleaning business covering Lake Macquarie, Cessnock and the Central Coast. Its site publishes pricing, gives each service a page and lists suburbs across its area, and the quote form offers a discreet call-back. A pressure cleaner could follow the same layout for driveway, roof and house wash prices.

Bobcat and excavator operators in the Bega Valley. The one-page site carries a swipeable 42-photo gallery and a testimonial carousel, with a contact form and tap-to-call on mobile. That gallery format would carry a long run of before-and-after pairs well.

Our suggestion for a sole operator
$399
Before-and-after photos, the surfaces you clean, starting prices, suburbs covered and a quote form with a photo upload, on one page.
$899
A home page, a gallery page grouped by surface, and a prices page covering driveways, roofs, house washes and sealing.
$1,499
For businesses with residential and commercial crews: driveways and paving, roofs, house and building washes, decks, graffiti removal and strata or commercial work each get a page, alongside the gallery and prices.
Starting prices usually help, as long as each one says what it covers: the surface, a typical size, and whether sealing or a second treatment costs extra. A note that the final price is confirmed from photos or a visit keeps it honest. If you'd rather not publish figures, explain what affects the price instead. Changing prices later is a text update covered by the $30 monthly hosting.
If your area has rules on using drinking water outdoors, a short note helps. Victoria's permanent water saving rules apply statewide and allow drinking water on driveways, paths and other hard surfaces only after an accident, fire, health or safety hazard or other emergency, during construction or renovation, or to remove staining once a season, using a high-pressure cleaning device, or a hand-held hose or bucket if you don't have one; South East Water explains the Victorian rules (opens in a new tab). Greater Sydney's Water Wise rules don't allow hard surfaces to be cleaned with water except for health, safety, emergency, construction or contamination reasons, but do allow building structures, including walls, gutters and roofing, to be washed at any time. Check your water authority's current rules; we set them out in your words.
Yes. For jobs with a set price, such as a standard driveway or a house wash, we can build booking and payment into the site, quoted per job, or add a button that opens a booking tool you already use. Roofs and large commercial jobs usually need a quote first, so those go through the form.
Fewer than you'd think. Pick the clearest ten to twenty pairs, spread across the surfaces you want more work on. Pairs taken from the same angle in similar light work well; we crop them to match and size them so the page loads quickly on a phone. Adding new pairs to an existing gallery later is covered by the $30 monthly hosting.
A one-person operation can start on the one-page site at $399. The 3-page site at $899 gives the gallery and the prices their own pages. If you run residential and commercial crews and want a page for each surface, the 8-page site at $1,499 fits. A site that size takes 2–3 weeks once we have your words and photos.
