Many pressure washing contractors are always asking the same question: “What else can I offer to grow?”
Some guys want to stay in their lane — and that’s fine. But others are looking for smart, scalable add-ons that don’t require a complete overhaul of their business.
The easiest (and for a long time, hardest) option has always been window cleaning.
For years, traditional window cleaning had a high barrier to entry. Squeegees, soap, ladders — it took finesse, time, and serious skill. Most avoided it because the ROI just didn’t make sense.
But that changed the moment water fed pole systems hit the market.
Now?
✅ No ladders
✅ No squeegees
✅ No skill gap
With a WFP setup, you can clean windows of all shapes, sizes, and heights safely and quickly — using pure water, carbon fiber poles, and ground-based operation. You can bolt the system onto your current trailer or truck setup, train a tech in a day, and instantly start offering a high-value service your customer already needs after a house wash.
It’s a no-brainer growth move — and the easiest way to raise average tickets without slowing down your day.
How Water Fed Pole Equipment Actually Works
(And Why It’s So Effective)
If you’ve never used or seen a Water Fed Pole system in action, here’s what you need to know:
A Water Fed Pole (WFP) system uses pure, deionized water and an extendable carbon fiber pole with a brush head to clean glass — all from the ground. There’s no soap, no squeegee, and no ladders involved.
Here’s how the process breaks down:
🔹 Step 1: Pure Water Filtration
The system uses a built-in or standalone multi-stage filtration unit (usually RO/DI — Reverse Osmosis / Deionization) to remove all minerals, sediments, and impurities from tap water.
Why? Because pure water dries spot-free. No streaks. No residue.
🔹 Step 2: Pole + Brush = Gentle Scrub
A lightweight carbon fiber pole extends up to 30–60 feet (depending on your model), with a brush head at the end. Water flows through the pole and out through jets in the brush.
The brush loosens dirt, pollen, cobwebs — while the water rinses it all away.
🔹 Step 3: Spot-Free Rinse
Because you’re using pure water, you don’t need to dry the window.
The water evaporates on its own, leaving behind a clean, crystal-clear surface — no towels, squeegees, or touching the glass required.
Why Contractors Love It:
✅ Safe – You stay on the ground. No ladders, no OSHA issues, no harnesses.
✅ Fast – A standard 2-story home’s windows can be cleaned in 15–30 minutes.
✅ Scalable – Easy for techs to learn and add to any pressure washing route.
✅ Professional – Leaves a spotless finish your customers will rave about.
Whether you're cleaning residential windows, storefronts, solar panels, or even awnings — WFP systems give you a professional edge without the complexity.
If you're in the pressure washing business and you're serious about growth — not just surviving this year, but scaling over the next five — there’s one move you need to seriously consider:
Add window cleaning with a water fed pole system.
Not because it’s trendy.
Not because it’s something “extra.”
But because it’s exactly what your customers already expect — and it’s one of the fastest ways to increase your average ticket, build route work, and land consistent contract clients.
Pressure Washing Is Powerful — But It’s Not Always Complete
You just finished washing a house. The siding looks great. Driveway’s gleaming.
But the windows? They’re left spotted. Still dirty. Still noticeable.
What do you think the customer sees?
You gave them 80% of the result… but left the last 20% right at eye level.
You didn’t do anything wrong. But to them? The job feels incomplete.
Customers Want Full-Service, One-Call Solutions
People don’t want to make three separate calls to clean their home exterior.
They want one provider who handles the house, the flatwork, the windows, the details.
And that provider could be you — if you’re willing to evolve.
Adding window cleaning means:
✅ You raise your average ticket. This is how you stop chasing the next lead… and start building a schedule that runs like clockwork.
The Tool That Makes It Possible: Water Fed Pole Systems
Here’s where most guys used to tap out — window cleaning used to be slow, dangerous, and not worth the time.
But the game has changed. Water Fed Pole (WFP) systems, especially from brands like
Tucker, have made window cleaning faster, safer, and more scalable than ever.
⚙️ Pure water systems remove minerals that cause spotting — no soap needed.
⚙️ Carbon fiber poles reach up to 3 stories from the ground.
⚙️ No ladders, no squeegees, no streaks — just clean, clear glass.
You can finish the job right — on the same day — without slowing your schedule.
More and more suppliers across the nation are adding supplies to their stores to cater to this side of the industry. Years ago, you could only buy window gear at chemical supply companies. Now it's nice to see the crossover happening at the supplier level. The Pressure Washing and Soft Washing Industry is built to facilitate window cleaning on its rigs, trucks and service routes. Suppliers jumping on board with this are setting the trend and leading the pack!

I’ve Seen It Firsthand
When I ran my own pressure washing business, we had clients who wanted their pool decks and windows cleaned every single month.
Why? Because we delivered a full-service experience they couldn’t get anywhere else.
That kind of contract work doesn’t just increase revenue — it builds predictability. And in service-based businesses, predictability is gold. Recurring contracts are also the greatest way to build a book that you can sell with your business.
Final Word: You’re Closer to Scaling Than You Think
You don’t need another truck to grow. You need to maximize the value of every job you're already doing.
Adding window cleaning with WFP technology is the lowest-lift, highest-leverage move you can make right now to:
🔹 Raise your average ticket.
🔹 Create recurring route work.
🔹 Close more contracts.
🔹 Deliver a better customer experience.
If you're looking for smarter ways to grow your pressure washing business — and you're ready to play the long game — this is the move.
