Pressure Washing Google Ads

The Tradesmen Agency has generated over $3 million 

GET FREE GOOGLE ADS AUDIT

Everyone is fighting over residential. Commercial costs 60 cents a click.

“Pressure washing near me” pulls twenty-six thousand searches a month at difficulty 64, and every one-truck operator in your market is bidding it.

“Commercial pressure washing” pulls seven thousand two hundred searches at difficulty zero and sixty cents a click. Parking lots, storefronts, fleet washing, and property management work. Recurring contracts instead of one-off driveways.

Same trade, same equipment, five times cheaper traffic on jobs worth many times more. Almost nobody in this industry runs a commercial campaign.

We own trade businesses. We run our own accounts before we run yours.

What the numbers look like

KeywordVolumeDifficultyCPC
pressure washing near me26,00064$3.00
roof cleaning near me16,00025$7.00
commercial pressure washing7,2000$0.60
house washing5,60052$3.00
driveway cleaning1,9002$2.50

Roof cleaning is the other one worth noticing. It costs more per click than anything else in the trade, and it should, because a soft wash roof job is worth several driveways.

What breaks in a pressure washing Google Ads account

One ad group for everything

The most common mistake in this trade. Someone searching for roof moss removal sees an ad about driveways, clicks away, and you paid for it.

House washing, roof cleaning, concrete, and commercial are four different jobs with four different tickets and four different buyers.

Ads running while you are on a roof

This one is specific to owner-operators. If you are on the job from eight to five, ads running at eleven in the morning generate calls nobody answers.

A missed call in this trade is a lost job. They call the next result.

No before and after photos anywhere

Pressure washing is the most visual trade there is. The entire value proposition is a photograph of the difference.

Most accounts run text-only ads and send traffic to a page with stock imagery. The single highest-leverage change in most pressure washing accounts is putting real before and after work in the ad assets and above the fold on the landing page.

Budget too thin to learn anything

A widely-read thread in this industry describes spending a hundred dollars, getting thirty clicks and three thousand impressions, and concluding Google Ads does not work.

Thirty clicks is not a test. It is a rounding error. In a trade where clicks run $3 to $14, a hundred dollars buys you nothing but a bad conclusion.

Rental and retail traffic unfiltered

Enormous volume goes to people renting a machine from Home Depot or buying a pressure washer pump. Without a negative list, you fund all of it.

Commercial ignored entirely

Covered above. It is the biggest missed opportunity in this trade by a wide margin.

How we build a pressure washing account

Ad groups split by service

House washing and soft wash

Vinyl siding, stucco, exterior house cleaning. Volume driver, moderate ticket, heavily seasonal.

Roof cleaning

Soft wash roof cleaning, moss and algae removal. Highest cost per click in the trade and the highest residential ticket. Worth its own budget.

Concrete and driveway

Driveways, sidewalks, patios, sealing. Lower ticket, faster close, and good filler work between larger jobs.

Commercial and fleet

Parking lots, storefronts, dumpster pads, drive-thrus, fleet washing. Recurring contracts, near-zero competition on the terms, and the campaign that changes a pressure washing business.

Ad scheduling built around when you can answer

We set the schedule to the hours you actually pick up the phone, not to a default that runs while you are twenty feet up a ladder.

If you have someone answering, we run wider. If it is you and a truck, we run tighter and spend the budget where it converts.

Before and after imagery in the ads and on the pages

Image assets on every ad. Real jobs, not stock. Landing pages that lead with the transformation rather than a paragraph about your commitment to quality.

Campaign settings we correct first

Location targeting

Presence only, set to your city and zip codes. The default also serves people who merely showed interest in your area.

Networks

Display and Search Partners both off. They waste local service budgets on accidental clicks more than in almost any other category.

Match types

Phrase and exact. Broad match in this trade finds rentals, equipment, and detergent recipes immediately.

Negative keywords installed before launch

Rental and retail

Rental, rent, home depot, lowes, walmart, harbor freight, buy, price of, parts, pump, hose, nozzle, repair.

DIY and informational

DIY, how to, detergent recipe, mixture, psi, best pressure washer, reviews.

Employment

Jobs, hiring, salary, employment, careers, start a pressure washing business.

Wrong service

Car wash, mobile detailing, dry cleaning, laundry.

That last one is not hypothetical. Your current page is picking up impressions for “dry cleaners google ads management agency.”

Ad copy that is local and specific

City name pinned in the first headline. A trust signal or offer in the second. Call assets so mobile users can dial without loading a page, and callout assets carrying licensed and insured, satisfaction guaranteed, or free instant quote.

Landing pages per service

Roof cleaning traffic hits a roof cleaning page with roof photos. Driveway traffic sees concrete work.

Click to call above the fold, a short form, before and after galleries, and Google reviews visible.

Tracking

Call tracking

Dynamic number insertion. This trade converts almost entirely on the phone.

Conversion tracking

Calls and forms both primary, through Google Tag Manager.

Offline conversion import

When a commercial contract closes, that value needs to feed back into bidding. Otherwise residential one-offs will always look like your best campaign because they close fastest.

What we report

Cost per booked job and cost per closed contract, split by service. What commercial produced against residential. Which services are actually paying for the truck.

Not impressions. Not click-through rate. Not a dashboard screenshot with a green arrow on it.

What it costs

Google Ads management

$2,500 a month, flat.

What to expect on media spend

Pressure washing clicks run roughly $4 to $14 depending on service and market. Well-structured campaigns in this trade commonly return three to six times ad spend.

The budget floor matters more here than most trades. Below a few hundred dollars a month you will not gather enough clicks to know whether anything works.

How ad spend is handled

Ad spend is billed to you directly by Google. We never take a cut of the media, and you own the account. If we part ways, you keep the history and everything the account has learned.

Why us

We own trade businesses. That’s the difference, and most agencies pitching you can’t say it.

Bear Brothers Cleaning is ours. We’ve priced jobs, hired crews, run the phones, and lived with a cost per lead that had to work against real margins. We also run paid search for Plastic Fusion Fabricators and TriHaz Solutions, both industrial operations with long buying cycles and large contracts.

We’ve generated over $3 million in revenue for the businesses we market.

Frequently asked questions

Do Google Ads work for pressure washing?

Yes, and the returns are strong when the account is structured properly, commonly three to six times ad spend. The failure mode is a single generic ad group and a budget too small to gather meaningful data.

How much do pressure washing Google Ads cost?

Clicks run roughly $4 to $14 depending on service and market. Residential near-me terms sit around $3 at high difficulty. Commercial pressure washing runs about $0.60 a click at difficulty zero.

Should pressure washers bid on commercial keywords?

Yes, and almost nobody does. Commercial pressure washing pulls 7,200 monthly searches at difficulty zero and roughly sixty cents a click, on contract work that recurs rather than one-off residential jobs.

How should pressure washing ad groups be structured?

Separately by service: house washing, roof cleaning, concrete and driveway, and commercial. Someone searching for roof moss removal should not see an ad about driveways.

What negative keywords do pressure washing companies need?

The rental and retail cluster above all: rental, home depot, lowes, pump, parts, psi. Enormous search volume in this trade comes from people renting a machine rather than hiring anyone.

When should pressure washing ads run?

During the hours you can actually answer the phone. For owner-operators on the job all day, running ads at eleven in the morning generates calls that go to voicemail, and those callers dial the next result.

Do you mark up ad spend?

No. Ad spend is billed to you directly by Google and you own the account. We charge a flat $2,500 management fee and never take a cut of the media.
