Getting the forecast right for a pressure washing business
- Use booked jobs for the next few weeks and last year for the weeks after.
- Put commercial payments in the weeks they usually arrive.
- Add equipment purchases and repairs in their weeks.
An example
In April a pressure washing company adds an HOA contract, washing 120 homes over six weeks. Crew pay and chemicals go out every week. The HOA pays monthly, 30 days after each invoice. The forecast shows about eight weeks of cost before the first payment.
What to watch
- Commercial invoices past 30 days
- Equipment repairs in peak season
- Chemical costs per job rising
