We used First State this year to put up Christmas lights on our home. It was unbelievable how fast they were and how it transformed our home overnight. Thanks so much, Dan!

This is an update to my prior review. First State does whole house exterior cleaning including roofs, decks, patios, and walkways. I have now used First State three times on two different properties. They are fantastic. They were very careful to protect sensitive material and, as always, have amazing results. Stains and discoloration that I though could not be removed vanished. WOW!!! Saved me time and money from painting or replacing stained material. My prior review from the first time I used them: First state provided gutter and exterior house cleaning. They did an excellent job for a fair price. I had a lot of grey discoloration on my eves that I thought could not come off. To my surprise it all came off and looks great. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them for your roof, gutter and whole house cleaning.

Through the whole process, First State was professional and informative. They patiently answered any and all questions I had and never put any pressure on the sale. Through the whole process I always felt First State focused on our needs and never tried to “upsell” on things that we didn’t require. I strongly recommend First State for any of the services offered. Most recently we worked with First State on the cleaning of gutters and the installation of gutter guards. Previously, they had done a great job with their power washing service.

Sparkling Clean! I contacted First State Roof & Exterior Cleaning services to powerwash the exterior of my house, my deck, and my outdoor furniture. They immediately came by to take a look at the house and give me an estimate. When I opened the estimate they emailed I was immediately impressed by their website and the many other services they provided..(I added the furniture and was very happy I did).. will most likely add window washing next year! They were so friendly and professional. The house looks fantastic!! Great job... well done!! I have already booked for next year. Thank you First State!!

They are the very few who you can trust to do a great job. Even if your not home, you can depend on First State Roof and Exterior Cleaning to do perfect work. That says plenty about this Company. They are reliable and always call with updates about scheduling. I usually don't give reviews, but this Company deserves a great review. Vincent W Verdisco, Happy Customer.

Thank You Dan and Robin for coming to our home on two separate days to make sure the entire exterior, decks, windows, driveway and garage were sparkling clean😍 We LOVE y’all so much. If you want a company with amazing talent and work ethic to take care of your home this company is the one. They not only are cleaning your home but are making mental notes of things they see that you don’t. Like that window needs the seal checked. That gutter might need the down spout adjusted. There’s a big wasp nest under your deck or did you know you got a shingle loose by that far left window. Because of the love the care they took with the exterior clean of our new build they will soon be installing our gutter guards. If you have trees in or near your home. Give them a call. That recent storm filled our gutters with GALLONS AND GALLONS of debris. In a few weeks we want have to worry about that anymore😍

I recently had a house wash, driveway and patio cleaning and a dryer vent cleaning by First State Roof and Exterior Cleaning and would highly recommend each of these services! They did a terrific job and I was very well pleased. The team arrived on time, went right to work, were done within two hours and were able to add the driveway cleaning, which had not been in the original order. After they cleaned our sidewalk, I decided that the driveway needed cleaning also. Great folks to work with and very much appreciated.

We were super happy and will call them back again next year. Great family company to work with.

We used First State to put in Gutter Guards (great job and working fantastic) and now had a house cleaning by them. I was amazed how clean the house was after the cleaning. All of the algae that was growing on the north side of the house and especially the black oxidation stripes on all the gutters, all were completely gone. House looks like new and Dan is a pleasure to talk to and learn from him while he works. Would highly recommend First State for these types of jobs.
