Pressure Washing invoice template
Pressure washing is billed by measured area and surface type, and both belong on the invoice. Build one below — prefilled pressure washing services, payment terms, PDF download, and a public payment link.
How pressure washing invoicing actually works
Pricing by the hour punishes you for being fast and good. Pricing by measured square footage, with a rate that varies by surface, makes the invoice verifiable and lets you quote from a satellite image before you drive out. State the measurement you worked from.
Surface matters more than area. Soft-washing a roof or a painted siding is a chemical process at low pressure; cleaning concrete is a mechanical one. Naming the method protects you when a customer expected a high-pressure result on a surface that would have been damaged by it.
What belongs on a pressure washing invoice
Beyond the universals — your details, the customer's details, a unique invoice number, dates, totals and payment terms — these are the lines that matter in this trade.
- Area cleaned, measured, by surface
- Driveway, walkway, siding, deck, roof — each with its own square footage and rate.
- Method: pressure wash vs soft wash
- Naming the method is what explains the result and protects the surface.
- Treatments applied
- Detergent, degreaser, mould and algae treatment, sealant — each named.
- Water source and access
- Whether you supplied water or drew from the property, and any access arrangements.

Getting paid as a pressure washing
- Collect at completion — the result is immediately visible and that is the moment the customer is most satisfied.
- For HOA and commercial contracts, bill on their cycle against a purchase order and expect a longer cycle than residential.
- Photograph before and after. On cleaning work it settles almost every dispute in a single message.
Example invoice wording: Pressure washed driveway and walkway, rinsed surfaces, and cleaned work area.
Pressure Washing invoicing questions
What should a pressure washing invoice include?
A pressure washing invoice should include your business details, the customer's contact information, itemized services, materials or fees, taxes, payment terms, a due date, and a clear total due.
Can pressure washing businesses send invoices from a phone?
Yes. BillingDone is designed for fast mobile invoice creation so you can create, send, and collect payment while you are still on site.
Can I save common services?
Yes. Start with the built-in Quick Add Invoice Library, then save custom services, prices, and descriptions for your own repeat work.
Should pressure washing be priced by the hour or by area?
By measured area with rates varying by surface type. Hourly pricing penalises efficiency and makes the invoice hard to verify; area pricing lets you quote before you drive out.
What is the difference between pressure washing and soft washing on an invoice?
Soft washing uses chemistry at low pressure for roofs and painted surfaces; pressure washing uses mechanical force for concrete and masonry. Naming the method on the invoice explains the result and protects you if the customer expected the other one.
