I used to pressure wash concrete a lot working maintenance for a gas station company during the summer. I don't remember it fondly in the heat. frick people who chew gum.

That said I'd imagine it will depend on your ability to line up work, like any other side job whether it's yard work, carpentry, etc. Distance traveling to jobs and maintenance on equipment will eat away at that $100/hr you are envisioning, and it may turn out to be more trouble than it's worth, but if you're willing to put in the effort I'm sure you could put some cash in your pocket.

This is all it would be. Like literally buy a slightly nicer pressure washer than I'd buy for personal use since it would kind of pay for itself. Just do enough work to cover the machine and insurance and let me buy some toys on the side when I want to.

But at the same time, that's probably what would bite me. Not hustling would probably make it difficult to get my name out there and it'd be difficult to even get just a few clients here and there like I'd want to.
