Starting a pressure washing business while working full time, raising a family, and trying to honor God isn’t easy. In this episode of Wash and Win with Friends, Logan from Purpose Pressure Washing (Portland, OR) shares exactly how he’s doing it.

In this conversation, we unpack Logan’s journey from Dutch Bros manager to new pressure washing business owner with a clear purpose: glorify God and disciple young men through work.

We talk about:

• The internal battle and self-doubt when you start a pressure washing business
• How one mentor and one YouTube video changed his entire path
• Why he chose to invest in better equipment (and why time matters more than we think)
• The day he made more in one day pressure washing than two weeks at Dutch Bros
• Balancing devotionals, being a present husband/father, and chasing a big vision
• Handling equipment breakdowns, long days, and the temptation to compare rigs
• His 5-year dream for Purpose Pressure Washing, drones, fleet work, and discipling young men

If you’re a Christian entrepreneur, a pressure washing rookie, or a seasoned operator who needs fresh fire, this episode will hit home.

Takeaways / Value

• How to fight the mental game: doubt, comparison, and fear
• Practical thoughts on equipment: push cart vs 8 GPM rigs
• Why your time and family are part of your business strategy
• How to define a real “win” beyond the sexy rigs and big numbers
• A faith-based approach to building a pressure washing business with purpose
