Soft Washing estimate FAQ

How do I measure a house for soft washing?

Use the wall area calculator: building perimeter times wall height, plus gable triangles, minus large openings like garage doors. Enter stories or working height in the job details.

Does Built2Bid recommend cleaning solutions or pressure settings?

No. Chemical selection, mix ratios, pressure, and application methods are decided on site by the applicator following product labels and local rules. The estimate covers price and scope only.

Can I include roof cleaning?

Yes. Measure each roof plane with the roof calculator. The proposal states that access, fall protection, and cleaning method are confirmed on site before work starts.

Will my customer see my costs?

No. The proposal shows only customer prices, in the level of detail you choose. Internal costs, markup, margin, and notes never appear.

Do the suggested items include prices?

No. Suggestions help you remember what belongs in the bid. You enter your own costs, so nothing is priced with made-up numbers.
