Local petrol station to use the pressure wash only, back home cover car twice with watering can, shampoo and wash mit, watering can it off and dry.

Easy just a ball ache!

By living in an area with no hosepipe ban

Buy a water but, fill it with a bucket and attach a power washer.

Simples.

What hosepipe ban by the way? Ha, ha.

I was just wondering how people are getting round it. I've got a water butt and use one of these to pump the water out the water butt to the preassure washer.

Theres a hose pipe ban?

We stock Nomad portable pressure washers. They are the perfect way to get around the hosepipe ban, as they have their own water tank.

I'm not in a ban area, but I don't use a hosepipe anyway. 2 buckets, 1 watering can. Job done. Takes me 2 full buckets (10l each) and 6 watering cans (5l each time)

50 litres per wash.

I'm on a water meter, so I am already tight with water!

They're not cheap, but they're very good quality machines.

they look fantastic and ideal for me who lives in a terraced house with no way of getting a hosepipe to the front of my house lol. Have you used one Matt, are they as powerful as a Karcher for example?

I use one regularly. It is not as powerful as a conventional pressure washer, but it's still easily powerful enough for car washing.

We do a small amount of mobile valeting and the choice was using buckets/watering cans or using the Nomad. It was a no-brainer for us.

We're going to continue using the Nomad after the hosepipe ban because it's so much easier than having to drag a hose and pressure washer around with us (both in terms of transporting it and using it).

That's fair enough. If there's anything I can help with, just send me a PM/email.
