Pressure washing is a volume game. Jobs are fast, margins are tight, and the difference between a full schedule and a slow week comes down to how many calls you convert. When you're on-site blasting a driveway, you can't hear your phone over the machine - and by the time you check it, the homeowner who called has already booked someone else.
Pressure washing generates high call volume with relatively low per-job revenue, which means you need to convert at a high rate to stay profitable. But the nature of the work - loud equipment, outdoor job sites, back-to-back appointments - makes it nearly impossible to answer the phone consistently. Homeowners looking for a driveway or deck wash are usually comparing prices quickly and booking whoever responds first. You can't justify a full-time receptionist when individual jobs run $150-$400, but you also can't afford to lose five calls a day to voicemail. The math doesn't work either way - until the phone answering is automated.
Curb collects exactly what you need to quote fast - surface type (concrete, wood, brick, vinyl siding), approximate square footage, current condition, and any staining or special concerns - so you can text back a ballpark price in minutes instead of playing phone tag.
Curb coordinates availability and collects the caller's address, preferred dates, and access details so you can confirm jobs quickly and keep your schedule packed tight with minimal back-and-forth.
After every wash, Curb sends an automatic review request while the driveway is still gleaming and the homeowner is impressed - capturing five-star reviews at the moment of peak satisfaction.
Every call answered immediately - whether it's a homeowner asking about a driveway wash or a property manager needing a fleet of buildings cleaned - even while you're running the pressure washer at full blast.
Calls that come in during jobs get an automatic text follow-up within minutes, keeping leads engaged instead of letting them scroll to the next company on Google.
Quote requests from property management companies, HOAs, and commercial clients that arrive by email are captured and queued alongside your phone leads - nothing falls through.
Every new lead arrives on your phone with surface type, size estimate, address, and timeline - so you can fire back a quote from the truck between jobs.
Every completed job triggers a review request automatically, building the Google rating that keeps your phone ringing without any extra effort from you.
Leads, quotes, and job details sync directly to your scheduling or CRM system - no manual entry, no lost leads, no double-booking.
Start each morning knowing exactly how many new leads came in, which quotes are pending, what follow-ups are due, and how your week is shaping up - all in one quick read.
Curb generates before-and-after style posts from your completed jobs - those satisfying driveway transformations - keeping your social channels active and driving new inquiries.
When a repeat customer calls for their annual house wash, Curb remembers their property, past services, and pricing - making rebooking effortless and personal.
Roughly the revenue from two to three driveway jobs. Compare that to hiring even a part-time phone person at $1,200-$2,000/mo who still can't answer calls at 7am when early-bird homeowners are booking their weekend. Pays for itself if it converts just a handful of extra leads per month - and in a volume business like pressure washing, that happens in the first week.
