How to estimate a driveway pressure washing job
Three steps, all from your desk. The only number you have to get right is the square footage — and that's the part SurfaceMeasure handles for you.
Measure driveway square footage
Search the address and trace the driveway on satellite imagery — apron included. Straight, curved, circular, or multi-section, the area calculates automatically in seconds.
Apply your rate per square foot
Multiply the square footage by your driveway rate. Concrete typically runs $0.08–$0.20; price pavers and stamped concrete higher for the extra care they take.
Add minimum, materials & extras
Apply your job minimum, then add oil-stain or rust treatment, a post-wash sealer, or a degreaser pass as separate line items so the quote reflects the real scope.

Example driveway estimate
Two-car concrete driveway with an apron and a light oil stain, washed at $0.15/sq ft.
Driveway + apron — 1,100 sq ft × $0.15
$165
Oil-stain treatment (add-on)
$45
Subtotal
$210
Above $175 minimum — quote stands
$210
Measuring the driveway and apron took under a minute. The oil-stain line is what turns a $165 wash into a $210 ticket.
Common driveway surfaces
Surface type changes both your approach and your rate.
Concrete
$0.08–$0.20 / sq ft
The standard driveway surface. Straightforward to wash; oil stains and heavy grime push toward the top of the range or a separate treatment line.
Pavers
$0.12–$0.30 / sq ft
Lower pressure and more care to avoid displacing joint sand. Offer re-sanding as an add-on — it protects the surface and raises the ticket.
Stamped / Stained Concrete
$0.12–$0.25 / sq ft
Decorative finishes need a gentler approach so you don't strip the sealer. Slower work justifies a rate above plain concrete.

FAQ
Driveway washing questions
Measure the driveway square footage, multiply by your rate per square foot, then add your job minimum and any extras like oil-stain treatment or a sealer. A two-car concrete driveway usually runs 800–1,500 sq ft. At $0.12–$0.20 per square foot that's roughly $100–$300 before add-ons — though most residential driveways land at the job minimum once it's applied.
Most driveway pressure washing jobs fall between $100 and $300, with many priced at a job minimum of $150–$250 because the square footage is small relative to drive time and setup. Larger driveways, heavy oil staining, or a sealer add-on push the price up. The reliable way to quote is square footage times your rate, then compare to your minimum.
Pull up the address in SurfaceMeasure, trace the driveway outline on the satellite image — including the apron where it meets the street — and the square footage calculates automatically. It handles straight, curved, circular, and multi-section driveways. No tape measure, no measuring wheel, no site visit.
Usually, yes. Paver driveways need lower pressure and more care, and often a re-sanding of the joints afterward, so they justify a higher rate than flat concrete. Stamped and stained concrete sit in between — aggressive washing can strip the sealer, so it takes a gentler, slower approach. Price these above your standard concrete rate.
Yes. A single-car driveway at a per-square-foot rate often won't cover your time and chemical. Set a job minimum — commonly $150–$250 for residential — and charge the greater of square footage times rate or the minimum. It keeps small driveway jobs profitable.
