I've just used my mates diesel karcher power washer to jet wash two cottages prior to painting them , done a grand job beast if a machine but probably costs a grand too !

And the diesel ones weigh like they have a big engine in them.....surprisingly

Get a decent one, should last longer and spare parts ought not be a problem. So to my mind, a Karchter, say K4 or K5 will give plenty of oomph.

I use a electric clarke 150 power washer with the spinning turbo nozzle fab bit of kit.Dont get the petrol version

[hedgesparrow]

get yourself a petrol one with a italian pump. and one that will take gravity feed from a tank if doing site jobs. mine is 1600psi as i had new pump fitted to it as last one broke due to frost damage. in winter drain them down and keep out of the frosty air new pump £200

i have a 800ltr ebc tank that goes in back of pickup and can do a fair bit with that amount. but it goes quick so if you need to refill find were you can fill it fast as normal 1/2 inch pipe will take a hour to fill up.

I have one of the smaller sthil ones ( 107 ) i think. Its not bad for general duties. The nilfilsk altos are decent machines as well. I personally dont like karcher, i think they have gone down hill and are now just trading on their name.

cpc.co.uk are doing a 110 bar Nilfisk for around 65 pounds http://cpc.farnell.com/nilfisk-alto/c110-4-5-pc-x-tra/pressure-washer-patio-cleaner/dp/SI16061 They also have more powerful models and their prices seem good. I have bought from them in the past and have had excellent service (they do some nice 10W LED security lights which I have installed around my garage).
