When sizing up gutter cleaning costs, don’t forget to factor in some important accessories that will make your work easier and safer. You may be working from a scaffold or ladder now, but purchasing a telescoping wand gives you the safer option of working from the ground. The telescoping wand should be used in conjunction with the flexible gutter cleaning tool. This gutter cleaning accessory is specifically marked for "ground use only" and your model may have a restriction on the amount of pressure it can handle. Don’t exceed the PSI! If you are purchasing gear for a new gutter cleaning business, consider buying the optional harness belt if you plan to use the telescoping wand. It makes the whole unit easier to control, with less wear and tear on your back.

By using a gutter cleaning wand in combination with your pressure washer telescoping wand, and you can get most gutter cleaning jobs done without using a ladder or scaffold. Once you feel comfortable with the equipment you can try cleaning from an elevated position. When cleaning from the rooftop, check to see if the area above the gutters is easily accessible and make sure there are no loose roofing tiles or other hazards. If you aren’t comfortable working from the roof, try using a scaffold instead of a ladder. Scaffolds offer a more stable center of gravity when using the gutter cleaning wand.

If you have a grout cleaning job coming up, a hot water power washer with a rotary brush attachment can make the job go much faster. Apply a stripper to the grout and let it sit for 20 minutes. Then activate your hot water pressure washer and use the rotary brush attachment. Set the hot pressure washer between 800 and 1100 PSI and begin cleaning. If you are cleaning floor tile, try using a surface cleaner attachment for faster work. If you aren’t using a surface cleaner or brush attachment to spray away the stripper, be sure to keep the water flow at the right distance to avoid damaging the grout or loosening tiles.

Hot pressure washers have so many applications that you may require different power for different jobs. Those in the market for hot water pressure washers should make "task-specific" purchases. Outdoor tasks for hot water pressure washers may require forklift support, and some jobs are better done with trailer-mounted models, especially "extended use" tasks. Smaller jobs won’t require as much power, some jobs may require hotter water temperatures, and some will demand portability. Make a list of your washing needs before searching for a hot water power washer.

An electric hot water power washer is a good bet for indoor applications, as they are exhaust-free and there are no worries over carbon monoxide. Shop for an "electric-electric" model that has both an electric motor and electric hot water heating. There are a wide range of combinations of other types including electric motors with diesel heating, gas motors with diesel heating, and combination units. If you choose a fuel-fired hot water power washer for indoor use, it’s vital to follow the instructions regarding proper venting of your unit. Failure to do so puts you in a legally liable situation, and you may be in violation of a wide range of safety regulations.
