Los Angeles grease and graffiti need hot water

Los Angeles is served from the Pacoima shop at 13250 Weidner St. Machines are sold and repaired there, and the shop's service trucks work Los Angeles County, so you can drop a machine off or have a truck come to you.

About 18 miles from the Pacoima shop to downtown, straight line

What gets washed here

  • Restaurant back alleys, grease-stained loading docks and dumpster pads
  • Graffiti on walls, signs and utility boxes
  • Sidewalks and storefronts in busy commercial streets
  • Delivery trucks, buses and box vans that run the freeways every day

A lot of what gets washed in this city is oily. Cooking grease, tire and brake residue, the film a diesel leaves on a truck body. Cold water moves that around. Hot water melts it so the detergent can lift it, which is why city work usually calls for a hot-water machine.

The shop sells Hotsy, Alkota and All American machines, portable and stationary, and repairs those brands and other makes. For crews that move from site to site, Universal Trailer rigs carry the machine, the water and the reels on one trailer. On the published price grid, a 5 GPM hot-water rig on a single-axle 230-gallon trailer is $14,488 and the 8 GPM builds start at $15,788. The Alkota 5357C builds, with a Kubota diesel engine, are the ones the trailer site tags California-compliant, from $19,988. Graffiti crews have their own line: the Roadline graffiti-removal truck, quoted on the call.

Call (818) 252-0706. The first questions are about the job: what you're cleaning, what's going wrong, and what it's costing you now. Machines and prices come after that.

What are you cleaning?

Tell us the job in your own words. A person at the counter calls you and starts with the problem. Nobody pitches a machine until we understand the job.

A dead burner, a citation, a bid due Friday. Your words.
How do we reach you? A phone or an email is enough.
A few more questions (optional)
Downtime, labor, a lost bid. A rough idea is fine.
Brand, model, age if you know it.

Here's what happens next: The Pacoima counter calls you within one business hour, or emails you if you leave no number. The call is 15 minutes. We ask what's going wrong, how you plan to pay, and who else weighs in. At the end we set a next step, or tell you straight that we're not the right shop. Nobody pitches anything until we understand the job.
