About Jacksonville Washers

An exterior cleaning company that publishes its prices, explains its methods, and will tell you when a job does not need doing yet.

What we do differently, and why it is not complicated

There are a lot of pressure washing companies in Jacksonville. The equipment is broadly the same, the chemicals are broadly the same, and most of the work is not technically difficult.

What varies enormously is judgement — whether someone knows that a chalking painted wall needs testing before it gets touched, that a cool-deck coating will not survive driveway pressure, that pavers cannot be sealed the same day they are cleaned, and that a roof should never see a pressure washer at all.

That judgement is the whole product. Everything on this site is an attempt to demonstrate it before you have to trust us with your property.

Three things we do that most companies do not

  1. 01

    Publish every price

    Every service, with size tiers and the factors that move the number. You should not have to ring four companies to find out none of them were in budget.

  2. 02

    Say what will not work

    Etched glass will not clean back. Four-year-old oil will shadow. A worn roof looks worn once clean. We say so before taking money, not after.

  3. 03

    Tell you when to wait

    If your house was washed eight months ago and looks fine, we will say so. We would rather have the booking next spring than sell you something you did not need.

How we work

Every job runs the same way, whether it is a $95 driveway or a whole-property clean.

We walk it first. Siding condition, paint that has started to chalk, failing caulk, soft fascia, existing damage, where the water goes, where the spigot is. Five minutes here prevents most of what goes wrong in this trade.

We prep before we clean. Beds soaked, fixtures and outlets covered, furniture moved, gates and pets confirmed. This is the part that gets skipped when someone is working to a schedule rather than a standard.

We match the method to the surface. Soft wash where force would cause damage, surface cleaner where an even pass matters, hot water where grease is involved. The pressures we use are published on every service page — here is the full table.

We walk it again before leaving. Landscaping rinsed, hard surfaces flushed, and we look at the result with you. If you were not home, you get photos.

Equipment, and what it is for

Not a specification list for its own sake — each of these exists because a particular surface needs it.

  • Soft wash system. Low-pressure application with adjustable solution strength. Used on roofs, siding, stucco, screens and anything painted. This handles the majority of a typical house.
  • Rotary surface cleaners. Even pressure across the full width for driveways, sidewalks and pool decks. The tool that prevents tiger striping.
  • Hot water unit. For grease, oil and gum. Genuinely necessary on restaurant pads and garage floors, genuinely unnecessary on a residential driveway.
  • Water-fed pole with deionised water. Second-storey windows and solar panels. Dries spot-free with no ladder work.
  • Water tank. For properties with no working spigot or a well that cannot keep up with demand — common in Middleburg and the rural Northside.
  • Containment and recovery. For commercial dumpster pads and covered parking decks, where runoff cannot legally go to a storm drain.

Where we work

We are based in Jacksonville and cover Duval, Clay, St. Johns and Nassau counties. Pricing does not change by area — a house wash in Fernandina Beach costs what a house wash in Riverside costs.

What does change is the work itself. A century-old wood-frame house in Riverside under full oak canopy, a well-water property in Middleburg with iron staining across the driveway, and a tile-roofed home in Ponte Vedra with a travertine pool deck are three genuinely different jobs. We wrote a page for each area explaining what that area actually needs.

On reviews

You will notice this site does not display star ratings or customer testimonials.

That is deliberate. We would rather show none than show invented ones, and a surprising number of exterior cleaning sites display quotes attributed to people who do not exist. As real reviews come in they will appear here and on the reviews page, with the reviewer's real name and the platform they left it on.

In the meantime, judge us the way you would judge any contractor before they have a track record with you: by whether the person explaining the work seems to understand it, by whether they tell you the limits as readily as the benefits, and by whether the price was what they said it would be.

Answers

Questions about working with us

Are you licensed and insured?
Yes to both. We carry general liability insurance and hold a local business tax receipt. We will send the certificate before work starts rather than waiting to be asked, and for commercial or HOA work we issue it named to the property.
Do you use subcontractors?
No. The people who quote your job are the people who do it. That matters more than it sounds — most of the damage we get called out to fix was done by someone who had no relationship with the customer and no reason to slow down.
What areas do you cover?
Duval, Clay, St. Johns and Nassau counties — Jacksonville proper, the Beaches, Orange Park, Fleming Island, Middleburg, Nocatee, St. Augustine, Fernandina and everything in between. Coverage is confirmed by address rather than neighbourhood name.
How do I get an estimate?
Send photos and your address. Wide shots of each side plus close-ups of the worst areas is usually enough for a firm number, and most go back the same day. For anything complicated we would rather come and look at it.
What if something goes wrong?
Tell us and we will come back. Exterior cleaning is not complicated work but it is done on somebody else's property, and things occasionally need a second visit. That is what being insured and being local is for.
Do you require a deposit?
Not for standard residential work — payment is due when the job is finished and you have seen it. Multi-day work such as paver sealing, where material is bought upfront, is the exception and we will say so when quoting.
