Driveway Pressure Washing Prices

A typical 2-car driveway runs 800–1,200 sq ft. At market rates of $0.10–$0.20 per square foot, that prices between $125 and $225 in most US markets — with $150–$185 being the most common landing zone for a driveway in average condition. Always measure rather than assuming: '2-car' driveways vary by 50% or more in real square footage, especially once the street apron is included.

Almost never as a real price. Once you account for drive time, setup, fuel, insurance, and equipment wear, a $99 standalone driveway typically nets less than minimum wage for the hours consumed. $99 works only as a route-density play (several neighbors on the same street, zero extra drive time) or as a loss-leader with a high attach rate to house washing and sealing upsells — and both need to be deliberate, not accidental.

Measure first either way. Flat pricing by size tier (1-car / 2-car / 3-car) is fine for marketing, but confirm the actual square footage before you commit — tiered pricing without measurement is how contractors end up washing a 1,900 sq ft courtyard driveway at their '2-car' price. Per-square-foot pricing with a job minimum is the more defensible structure as you grow.

Yes — measure it and include it. The apron (where the driveway flares to meet the street) adds 150–400 sq ft on many homes and is usually the dirtiest section. Leaving it out of the measurement but washing it anyway is one of the most common silent margin leaks on driveway work.
