About
I am Mark Lovishuk, the proud owner and founder of Elevate Power Washing. At the young age of 17, I decided to open my own exterior cleaning business inspired by an afternoon spent with my late grandfather. My grandfather was the ultimate handyman; whenever there was any kind of problem around the house, he was the one to call, and he always found a solution. One day, he decided to power wash the patio at my house and, as usual, asked if I wanted to help him. I agreed, as I enjoyed not only spending time with him but also learning from him. Once he gave me the chance to operate the machine, I was amazed at how satisfying it was. When we were done, the patio looked brand new. I thought to myself, “Wow, this is awesome, I wonder if I could do this for other people?”
In the year and a half leading up to the summer of 2021, I had started and failed at three separate e-commerce businesses and another service business. My parents were supportive of my endeavors but kept pressuring me to get a “real job” for the summer before it was too late. The next day, I asked to borrow the power washer to see if I could start a small business. My mom agreed, and I was off to find my first client. Once hired, I set out to do my first job on April 10th, 2021, with my small electric power washer stuffed in the back of my 2007 Honda Accord. After completing the job, I experienced the biggest sense of fulfillment in making someone else happy with the results I provided and knew this was something I wanted to continue.
After gaining some referrals, I secured a couple more jobs and completed them during the end of my senior year of high school. I was doing jobs on the days when I attended school remotely. I vividly remember having a Zoom call for my English class in my headphones while simultaneously washing a fence. My mom was extremely unhappy with me missing school and came close to making me stop my business in the middle of my second job.
Since those early days, we have grown exponentially, completing over 200 jobs, including contracts with large condominium associations and multiple commercial clients, all while I was in college pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Data Science.
