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.

I have been using Dan & Robin’s service to clean the exterior of our townhome for the past 5 years now and they were a referral to me by our friend who used them as well. The attention to detail before and on the job is second to none. They also offer Holiday Lights services which If I did that I would use them as well. If you are in the market for their services please do not hesitate you will not be disappointed. Thank you again Cindy & John

Their reviews speak volumes for their high quality work. Such a quick response time to my initial inquiry of services. They completed the quote in a timely fashion and had the paperwork sent over quickly. Not only was their response time exceptional so was the quality of work they completed on my home. I wish I hadn't waited to have the house and fence pressure washed as it looks like a brand new home. I highly recommend this company.

First State did a complete soft wash of our home in the Rehoboth area in late summer. They were wonderful to work with and the quality of the house power washing was great. They were extremely careful and we were very pleased with the results. We had many windows that were so clean when finished they didn’t need any additional cleaning. We were super happy and will call them back again next year. Great family company to work with.

I have used them for 3 jobs now and have referred them to several close friends. Their work product is unmatched and the lower pressure doesnt damage siding, paint or shingles. They also go the extra mile every time. They also cleaned things that were not even on the list, just to be thorough. I cant say enough about them. Polite, courteous and hard working. 5 stars for sure!

Our experience with First State Roof and Exterior Cleaning could not have been better. From the on-site estimate to the installation of our Valor Gutter Guards, the service, communication and installation was outstanding.

They exceeded our expectations!

I had left a detailed review and it was not posted. This Exterior Cleaning Service did an excellent job of power washing the outside of my house. They are a husband and wife team who couldn't be more professional, polite, and very thorough about their jobs. They took care of all of our outside furniture and plants. My windows were so clean that I didn't have to clean them over. I look forward to having them back to power wash our roof. Thank you. Marie and Al

First State did an excellent job. Dan was on time & ready to work.I have had my house power washed before, but this time was the best! Even my windows came out shiny and sparkling! Both Dan, and his wife Robin, in the office are true professionals. I plan to make First State power washing a spring tradition!

The Wanamakers do a terrific job in P/W’ing our house. We are repeat customers. Apparently, builders are not installing waterproof-photocells. 1st State sealed the device and protected the photocell prior to washing by covering it with plastic & tape. It is this type of work ethic that sets them apart. They take precautions to protect flowers and plants as well. They are a pleasure to work with and treat each house as if it is there own. We are very satisfied with their work and plan on using 1st State in the future.

First State cleaned 48 homes in our community and all of the owners were very happy with the results. Dan and his crew were attentive and took their time to make sure the entire unit was perfect. Unfortunately some cars were not moved and their trucks had to maneuver around them without causing damage to their vehicles. Even after dealing with this dilemma they continued to get the job done. Their communication was outstanding. The Woodlands of Pepper's Creek unit owners are thrilled about how great their homes look. Thank you, Dan and your team!

I have used First State previously and was very happy with the results, and this time I was equally pleased with the results. They are very professional, will tell you if something you requested doesn't need to be done. And they do a terrific job. I heartily recommend them. Next time I need exterior cleaning on my home - I will call them. Incidentally they were more cost effective than other estimates as well.

We had an issue with our gutters getting clogged constantly causing the mulch to wash out of the flower beds around the house. After getting a very hard sell from Leaf Filter, we called First State to look at a competitor's product. They came out and showed us the product I was interested in and also suggested a different product (less expensive) that they thought would work better. We went with that and couldn't be happier. It solved our problem. First State gave us a quote and scheduled the install. They showed up on time, installed the product, then cleaned up so well that you couldn't tell they were here. Very impressive!

I can’t write enough good things about this company. The quality of their work is excellent and they went above and beyond what I expected. They fully explained the process and took great care not to do any damage to the landscaping. They are professionals with an outstanding work ethic. If all companies were like them, the world would be a better place.

First State Roof & Exterior Cleaning did a great job for our exterior "pressure wash" job. They use a biodegradable cleaning solution carefully applied. They follow the application of the cleaning solution with a careful and specific water rinsing with just the right amount of water pressure to finish the cleaning job and provide a thorough rinsing. No water leaks through the windows due to excess water pressure like you get with some companies. They are prompt in returning any calls and provide great e-mailed information/instructions in preparation for your house cleaning job. Their prices are very reasonable and competitive. They also offer discounts if you use their services next year. They are a victim of their own success as you need to schedule services about 6 weeks out. I will be using them again, and would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and neighbors in our HOA.
