Roof cleaning and house washing can be difficult to do by hand, not to mention a bit dangerous if you have to balance yourself on a ladder. Hiring a professional house cleaner is the way to go. For pressure washing services in Franklin, NC and Macon and Jackson counties turn to Sharp's Soft Wash. We have been in business for 25 years and can provide you with quick mold removal and moss removal while also blasting away dirt and filth from your concrete, siding, and gutter. There are so many benefits to pressure washing. To start with, pressure washing is the guaranteed most affordable way to increase the value of your home. Doing so can increase the value of your property by almost $15,000 in some cases. It is a good investment if you are looking to sell your home at some point. It will also improve the curb appeal of your home, another benefit if you are looking to sell. It removes stains and mildew that detract from the aesthetic appeal of your home. Pressure washing is a great form of preventative maintenance as well. Routine washing will help you save money on repair costs and help hinder decay, rot, and premature aging. In addition, it helps keep your family and guests safe and healthy. Over time, your home can accumulate mold, mildew, and algae, all of which harbor bacteria and germs. Pressure washing will blast these away with ease, improving the longevity of your property in the process.

"SharpsSoftWashWNC did an excellent job pressure washing our home. They provide great customer service as well as being professional and punctual. They are very friendly and easy to talk to. I was super impressed the quality of their work, which was done in a timely manner-no loafing on the job. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pressure washing service."

"Dario Valdes and his crew did a great job for a great price- a significantly lower price than bids from competitors. This was a difficult job - 3 story house, bevel cedar siding and shakes, steep roof covered in solar panels, multiple gables, 4 different colors. Dario and his team are pros - hard working, skilled, pay attention to detail, never cut corners, took care of the little things that make a difference, e.g. cleaning, surface prep, masking, drop cloths to protect surfaces.

We do decks interact service pressure washing electrical carpentry work and we especially are good in doing epoxy garage floors and patios if you need it done we can handle it we are all handyman service don't call the rest when you call the best we just don't do painting we do it all

"Chad S from Lee's Painting came to our house after he reached out to us from Angi's list. He came up a two different quotes..for outside painting and caulking around the chimney $700..then he said he would sand and revarnish our inside ceiling for a total of around $2000. We agreed. He then told us he needed cash of $200 to purchase supplies..he followed us to our bank and even went inside, where we handed him $200 cash. He was supposed to return the following day but did not, instead, we received a call from him saying he was at Home Depot and needed more supplies than he thought and requested that we give Home Depot our credit card number to cover the additional supplies...our credit card was charged $155.24 on 2/6/25. He simply never came back to our home. He contacted us twice saying he couldn't come because of "daughter" issues, then another time due to problems at home. After he never showed up we asked for our money back, he texted me asking for my Venmo and said he would repay but never did. We have made several attempts to contact him but he will not respond, either by phone or text. Finally, just this morning 3/5/25 he answered his phone (I think because he did not know it was us)..we told him we wanted our money back..he just hung up! I now believe he is a scammer..it sure feels that way."

"They did a terrible job. They came on the 9th Started the job. SupposEdly that used 36 80 and 100 sand paper. I couldnt find it if they did. I think is what he said They did our bedroom and the spare bedroom.They were rough, we asked them to resand them.They didn't feel any of the nail holes We We asked them to put apoxy in the holes on the floor in our bedroom.They did not do that.The nails holes weren't filled and they scratched.The dug in with the sander in a couple spots. They use filler in the spare bedroom.And it set up wrong and they stained over that and it was spotty so we asked them to resand it. And then they came to the living room could.Not get it all up.We asked them to sand the floors to get the barcodes off the new wood. They did use a drum sander.But they still did not get the barcodes off.They stained it , we asked them to Take it back down because the barcodes were still on the floor you could see them through the stain. That was on the 12th They got upset And left.Me and my husband Spent 12 hours on sunday , sending these floors down with an orbital sander hand sander. They came back Monday. It was supposed to be here at 8:30. That showed up at 2. My husband took off work. When they did get here, my husband showed them stuff that he wanted them to do before they stained the floors he went in and talked to his brother and said this is what we're gonna do for you. You're not happy with the outcome. You're not satisfied so we are gonna stain the floors and not charge u anymore money. but we are not going to poly. And my husband told him that if you're not gonna poly , you're not gonna stain in either , you can get your stuff And leave because we paid you to do all of the work.He went back and talked to his brother.And they didn't agree to do the staining and the poly. So they did not fill the holes.They did did not do the apoxy. They were supposed to stain under my oven and pull it out which they did not. So the bottom line is the floors in the bedroom and our laundry room and the spare bedroom are all still rough and Scratched They're not smooth.You can barely walk your socks over the floor. In the bathroom they did not feel any of the holes in the living room.They didn't feel holes.The barcodes are still all over the floor."

Exterior painting services FAQs

You should paint your home exterior every five to 10 years, on average. Climate and surroundings can affect how well paint holds up. Wood siding will likely need a fresh coat of paint every three to seven years. Paint on brick tends to last about eight to 17 years, on average.

Calculate the square footage of the area you want to paint. Divide the square footage by 350 (the average square footage a gallon of paint covers). Multiply the number of gallons you need by two, as you’ll likely be applying two coats of paint. For a more accurate estimate, subtract the square footage of the windows and doors from the initial square footage total. It’s a good idea to plan for an extra gallon of paint to make sure you have enough to finish the job.

To calculate the square footage of a home exterior, painters multiply the length of the wall by the height of the wall to be painted. Then they add the total square footage for all of the walls to be painted. To calculate the price, they multiply the total square footage by their cost per square foot to prep and paint. Additional costs may factor in such as repairs, additional trim, and walls higher than the first story.

The cost to paint the exterior of a house ranges from $1,900 to $4,500 or about $1.50 to $4 per square foot, depending on the size, height, and complexity of the home layout. Other cost factors include your location, the type of siding (e.g., wood, aluminum, brick, stucco, etc.), and the kind of paint (e.g. oil-based, latex, acrylic, etc.). Painting the trim a different color or painting intricately designed trim can also increase the cost.

You should apply at least two coats of paint when painting the exterior of your house. Two coats of paint provides better durability and more even coverage than just one coat.
