Why Measurements are Important for PowerPro

At PowerPro and Prograss when measuring the surface areas of drives, patios and difficult lawns we now use the latest, state of the art technology as accurate measurements are crucial for our calculations of how much product to use.  This especially applies to sealant and fertiliser so we can not only achieve the best results but also it also enables us to accurately quote for the job so the customer knows he is only paying for the product being used.  For example pictured here the drive I am measuring here was 35.65m2 and was an odd shape and maybe using a measuring wheel it would have been rounded up to 40m2 and the 4.35m2 difference can make a significant difference to the quotation.

The system is motion based enabling us to calculate not only the exact surface area but will also give us a 3D image so we can determine run-off which is very important when pressure washing.  It has been a game changer for us and customers have made comments about being reassured that they are only paying for what they get.

Now operating with 2 teams of 2 and 4 pressure washers we are working at full capacity so anyone wanting a quotation on this work there is still time to get this done for the Summer season.  The results we are getting are amazing and the optional but beneficial sealant finishes the job perfectly.  When doing a written quotation we always price with and without sealant.
