How to Price Pressure Washing Jobs (Per Sq Ft Guide)

A practical guide to pressure washing pricing by square foot, minimum job prices, and travel fees—plus how software like SpringOS automates quotes.

Most residential pressure washing companies price house washes, driveways, and roof cleaning by square footage. Flat minimums and travel fees protect margin on small or distant jobs.

Common per-sq-ft ranges

  • House wash: $0.12–$0.20 per sq ft
  • Driveway: $0.20–$0.35 per sq ft
  • Roof soft wash: $0.30–$0.45 per sq ft
  • Deck or fence: $0.15–$0.25 per sq ft

Minimum job price and travel

Many operators set a $150–$250 minimum job price so short visits stay profitable. A flat travel fee ($25–$50) can cover fuel and windshield time for out-of-area calls.

SpringOS lets you configure products with per-sq-ft rates, minimum job price, and travel fee so estimates and website quotes calculate automatically.
