The Texas Comptroller treats pressure washing of buildings, sidewalks and parking lots as taxable building or grounds cleaning, and the rule covers homes as well as businesses. Washing personal property, such as outdoor furniture, is taxable too. A company providing the service must hold a sales tax permit and collect tax, so a quote with no tax line deserves a question.

Where Frisco wash water goes

Some Texas cities spell out runoff rules for washers. Dallas, for example, says it violates city code and the federal Clean Water Act for businesses to let soapy or chemical wash water reach the street or storm drains, and tells washers using chemicals to block drains and wet-vacuum the water. Fort Worth requires mobile power washers to hold a city permit. Those are other cities' rules; ask a Frisco washer how they handle runoff, and ask the city whether a rule applies to your job.

Plan exterior washing alongside other outdoor work. If you are having the house painted or the roof inspected, washing first shows the surface clearly. A washer who uses water only can direct runoff onto grass, which Dallas recommends as good practice, and that also keeps it off your neighbor's drive.

Before a wash near your foundation or flower beds, mark sprinkler heads; Frisco's free sprinkler checkup through the myFRISCO app can catch heads a crew knocks out of line.
