Before
After
Two seasons of bay leaf packed solid across the run, moss along the full north face. Cleared by hand, downspouts flushed, two joints resealed. Half a day.
Gutters, roof moss, grimy siding, filthy glass and a yard packed with fire fuel. One call to Mark and every bit of it goes.

Oil spotting at the parking end, algae across the shaded half. Surface cleaner at full pressure, then rinsed down to the street. Four hours.
Before
After
Juniper and bark mulch hard against the wall inside the first five feet. Removed and replaced with clear gravel. Two truckloads off site.
Needles, leaf litter and dead brush cleared back off the house for fire season, then hauled off the property the same day.
Gutters emptied, downspouts flushed until they run clear, moss lifted before it works under the shingles.
Drives, walkways, patios, fences, siding. Full pressure where it is safe, soft wash where it is not.
Glass inside and out, frames and sills wiped, screens pulled and washed rather than shrugged at.
The whole outside brought up together in one visit, for a listing, an open house or family arriving.
The part of your property most likely to catch is the part you never look at. Needle pack in a gutter. Leaf litter in a roof valley. Dead juniper against a wall.
Mark clears it, bags it and takes it away, so it leaves the lot instead of sitting in a pile by the kerb. Book it in late spring. By July the whole county has worked that out at once.
Book a fire season clear outIt lands on Mark's phone as a text and he rings you back, usually the same day. No fee for looking, no obligation, and nobody else gets your number.
No sales visit and no subcontractor you have never met. The man who walks your property is the man on the ladder.
Old redwood, painted stucco and a concrete drive all want different things. Soft wash where soft wash belongs, so nothing gets stripped or etched.
Roofs, gutters and the first five feet cleared before the dry months, with everything hauled off the property rather than stacked by the road.
You get the number before he starts. If something underneath is worse than it looked, he stops and asks you first.
“I have been cleaning houses in this county long enough that the same families ring me back every year. I turn up when I say I will, I tell you straight when something does not need doing yet, and I would rather do one house properly than three of them fast.”
“Ring me and ask. If it turns out I am not the right person for the job, I will usually know who is.”

Call Mark 707-328-4139Send the form or ring him. Tell Mark roughly what is going on. Photos help but they are not needed.
He walks the property and writes you a price. You do not have to be home and you are not committing to anything.
Booked for a day that suits you. Debris hauled away, hoses coiled, gate shut behind him. Photos when it is done.
★★★★★
Roof & guttersOur gutters had not been touched since we bought the place. Mark found a downspout packed solid that was pushing water into the crawl space, and showed me the photos before he fixed it.
★★★★★
Full exteriorWe had a week before the house went on the market. Driveway, windows and the whole front elevation in a day and a half. The listing photos look like a different property.
★★★★★
Fire clearingHe cleared the slope behind our house before last summer and hauled every bit away. He also told us which two things could wait a year, which nobody else has ever done.
If he can get there and back in a morning, he will come out and look at it.
Not on the list? Ring and ask anyway
It comes down to the size of the house, how many storeys and how long it has been. Which is exactly why looking is free and why Mark would rather come out than guess down the phone. You get a written number before anything starts, and it does not move unless you ask for something extra.
Yes. Mark carries liability insurance and will send you the certificate before he starts. Ask for it, it is not a strange request.
In the wrong hands at the wrong setting, absolutely. That is the whole reason Mark looks at the surface first. Older redwood, stucco and painted trim get soft washed at low pressure, with the solution doing the work instead of the force. Concrete and stone take a great deal more. If something is too far gone to wash safely he will tell you rather than take the job.
No. Plenty of people leave a gate unlocked and come home to it finished. Mark texts you when he arrives and again when he is done, with photos if you want them. If you would rather be there, that is fine too.
Gutters and a roof clear on a single storey house is usually a morning. A full exterior with windows, driveway and siding is normally a day, sometimes two on a bigger property. Mark tells you which when he quotes it.
Estimates are usually within a couple of days and the work within a week or two after that. Spring and the run up to fire season are the busy stretch, so if you are thinking about a summer clear out, call early.
Yes, and most people end up doing exactly that. Gutters twice a year, once after the leaves drop and once before the rain. Fire clearing in late spring. Mark keeps the list and rings you a couple of weeks beforehand to check the timing still suits. Nothing to sign, no charge for being on it.
On the truck and off your property the same day. Green waste, needle pack, gutter muck and cut brush. Nothing gets left by your kerb for you to deal with.
After the work is done and you have had a look at it, not before. Card, cheque or transfer, whichever is easiest.
Free estimate, no obligation, and Mark on the other end rather than a call centre.
