Pressure Washing Heavy Construction Equipment

 Construction equipment pressure washing can be a dirty job.

The economy has been rough on a lot of construction companies.  Many have shut down and most have downsized.  One construction company that Wash On Wheels has worked with said they’ve gone from bidding jobs with a projected 10% profit margin down to a 1% margin.

This doesn’t leave a lot of room for errors from bidding the projects to completing them. As a result, they’ve cut back dramatically on how often they schedule pressure washing their heavy equipment.

However, some projects require pressure washing the equipment before arriving at the job site.  Sometimes the turnover from the time the project bid is accepted to the time the project starts leaves a small window to get the equipment pressure washing done from the last job and ready for the next.  When this happens, construction companies need a pressure washing company that has the equipment and manpower to get the job done quickly.

Equipment pressure washing to remove grease can take a lot of time

Whether the equipment just needs a cosmetic pressure washing to look good or a degrease and deep clean to minimize contaminants, Wash On Wheels has the equipment and manpower for pressure washing a lot of heavy equipment in a short amount of time.

Keep in mind that heavy equipment pressure washing for cleaning grease off can be time consuming.  The grease tends to splatter from one surface to another or to several others.  So even if the the grease isn’t widespread to begin with, cleaning one greasy spot can involve cleaning every surface between the greasy spot and the ground.

For construction companies, their name on their heavy equipment can be a primary source of advertising.  Keeping the equipment presentable and in good working condition is important to their company image.
