Built by an operator. For operators.

It started the way most things do in this industry — on the job site. I was running a residential power washing operation, quoting every job with a patchwork of spreadsheets, Word docs, and mental math. Every estimate took 30 to 45 minutes to put together — a process that should have taken five. I was spending more time at my desk than behind the wand, and I knew I wasn't the only one.

I looked for tools. CRMs, invoicing apps, general-purpose estimators. None of them understood how residential power washing pricing actually works. They didn't know about surfaces, dirtiness conditions, square footage per siding type, multi-story adjustments, or why a house with vinyl siding prices differently than one with painted brick. I was constantly fighting the software instead of using it.

So I built the residential estimator first. The idea was simple: type an address, let property data pull automatically — including siding type. Set up your pricing once in the admin portal with your own rates, tiers, and adjustments. Then generate a professional, branded estimate in under five minutes. No spreadsheets. No guesswork. Just your pricing logic, applied consistently, every single time.

Then the requests started coming. “Can you add holiday lights?” “What about commercial?” “We do fleet washing too.” Each module followed the same philosophy: purpose-built for the way operators actually price these jobs. Holiday lights with linear-foot pricing and visual roofline builders. Commercial with multi-story calculations and pipeline management. Fleet with per-unit pricing and branded proposals.

Today, CleanEstimate Pro has four purpose-built modules with more on the way — plus a customer portal, team management, analytics, a communications hub, online payments, and a mobile app. What started as an estimating tool is now the operating system for power washing businesses. The core mission hasn't changed: give operators software that thinks the way they think, prices the way they price, and gets out of their way so they can get back to doing the work.
