I'm looking to add patio cleaning to my business. This will be done on a basic of "whatever" comes up, I'm not looking to spend thousand of £ on it.

This is my opinion. 

Firstly having looked I can find no company in the USA called Wilkes who build pressure washers.
Secondly the company on EBay flogging them sell everything they are simply stock movers.  They have numerous negative  and neutral feedback against them with what appears to be Zero customer service.  3 Very Negative Feedbacks this month alone are about that pressure washer.  Says it all really but my true thoughts are below:

Conclusion I have reached is that:

It is a pile of poo cleverly called and labelled Wilkes-USA and personally I wouldn't part with 50p of my money  for it but the decision is yours

The words on the fuel tank:
"among engine exhaust emissions there toxic CO so never use in an enclosed room without good ventilation"
doesn't bode well for a start and seems to indicate that the machine is made by the same Chinese factory that makes the majority of petrol washers on Ebay.
A similar one on alibaba is available with differing sized 'Honda' engines. These are not in fact Honda engines but manufactured by a Chinese company who are the subject of litigation by Honda as we speak. The same machine is branded jet-usa in Australia.
Most of the sellers on ebay (uk and au) have similar negative feedback about this machine which seems to fail after about 6 months.
They only cost £65 in china so get one shipped direct......on the other hand get 2 so you get a whole year of cleaning....lol

Minimum requirements for pressure washing, at least something like this to start you off..  Lots more you can buy to go with it, great reliable engine, great pump

I wouldnt mate. I bough one very similar, it lasted about 6 hours of use.

Absoloute Minimum i would say 12 LPM for small pato areas and drives etc with a bit of Hypo it will be fine just a bit slower than the big boys toys. For the brand minimum i would say a Loncin from Jetmac. iF you have a grand or more to play with a honda gx390 15 LPM + would be ideal but if its only for the odd small job then its up to your budget
