Is this a good pressure washer for startup?

I'm looking for something to get me going on domestic driveways, decking, and possibly roofs.

Will this type of thing do a job?

That would be fine but a diesel would be far cheaper to run

what is the main difference from RTT models  having an external unloader valve with return to tank bypass,  what difference is this for your washer,    or does it not matter  full price £1260.

An internal by-pass just dumps the water back into the inlet manifold so the same water is going round and round getting very hot which wrecks seals etc. An external by-pass dumps the unloaded water into a seperate return line which you run back to tank, this means the pump is still fed cool water even when unloaded for longer periods.
