Quick Quoting Scripts
Homeowner asks 'How much?' on the phone
"Great question — driveways and houses depend on size and condition. Send me two quick photos and I'll text you a firm price within an hour, no obligation."
Homeowner says your quote is too high
"I understand. Our price includes safe soft-wash chemistry, licensed insurance, and a written 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Cheaper quotes usually skip one of those. Want me to walk you through the difference?"
Closing a repeat house-wash annually
"Since you're on file, I can lock you in for next spring at this year's rate. Want me to schedule the same week in April?"
