First of all, the quote we received for holiday lighting was significantly lower for the same quality, type and layout of lighting than any other competitors. Second, they showed up at the exact date and time as promised, which is rare these days. Thirdly, they did a great job and were 100% professional. I would totally call them for any other services they provide based on this experience and will continue to have my holiday lighting installed every year by them going forward.

They really are the best. Did not need them to come back and clean our house again until almost 3 years later! Dan and Robin are wonderful to work with. We have front and back porches (one screened) and an outdoor shower that they cleaned in addition to the house. Our sidewalk and patio are no longer green. Don’t waste your money on traditional power washing and try First State at least once. Their cleaning will last you more than a year and most likely more than two, as in our case.

Great job cleaning gutters and cleanup. Showed up to do the job as scheduled.

Both my front porch & back deck had been neglected for years. I purchased the home late Jan 2020 & knew both deck & porch needed an overhaul. First State Roofing & Exteriors worked a miracle. Both are gorgeous now !! In addition to the workmanship, the professionalism & ease to work with both Dan & Robin made the entire experience PERFECT.

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.

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

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.

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!

I liked EVERYTHING about this company. They came on the scheduled day to put up my lights. Completed the job that same day. The lights looked FABULOUS! Not a bulb out of place, not an extension cord to be seen, and I think they left the front of my home cleaner than when they started. Better job on the lights than I could have ever done, and that's saying something.

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!

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.
