Do pressure washing companies use my water?

<div><p>Yes, pressure washing companies typically use your home’s water supply from the water spigot outside your house. While arrangements can be made with the pressure washing company to supply its own water, it’s very rare. Unless the company is already set up to supply its own water, this will likely incur additional costs for the company to fill a tank and haul it.</p></div>

What’s the difference between pressure washing and power washing?

<div><p>The main difference between pressure washing and power washing is that power washing uses hot water and pressure washing does not.

"James came in promising that he would do a great job. Well my 78 year old aunt paid him cash for the job and he didn’t give her a receipt even after requesting it many times. He keeps telling me that he will email it. He didn’t complete the job. I do not know where to start. The kitchen, he only painted 1 out of the four walls. He didn’t paint the walls to the trim in any of of the rooms The old paint shows through in many areas. He didn’t move a few pieces of furniture and so when we moved them there was an outline of the china cabinet. The stairway he didn’t go up to the ceiling. He was supposed to fix a piece of molding and didn’t. See photos for example. It has been 2 months since he painted the place. I have called many times asking him to come and complete the job. I gave him plenty of time to correct it and finish the job. A couple days shop he even told me he was there but had the wrong code to get in so I gave it to him again and he said he was at the store 5 minutes away. I gave him my realtors number if he needed help. He never went back nor did he contact her for assistance opening the lock. Now I have to hire someone else to complete the job. I also believe he charged me for 4 cams of paint but only brought 3 into the house. On the thing I had heard him tell his worker that was with him to leave the other can. I never saw them bring another can on the ring."
