Great experience with Ashlyn! She offered great service and was very detailed oriented. She helped me with all my needs at my property and was very thorough. I told her the scope of work I was looking for and she was able to provide that service. Thank you, Ashlyn!

They did a fantastic job. We had our gutters cleaned out and townhome washed. We have the nicest looking townhome on our block now. Thank you LBL for a great job done and they were great to work with. Would recommend them to anyone who wants a great and professional job done.

The techs gave me the information about how their process works and it was perfectly accurate. My house looks better than it has for several years. The house is very tall and not super small which makes it slightly higher than some other companies but I got my moneys worth. I would recommend this company.

Used the service for my front end rear deck, had a couple of issues and have reached out several times to the company and have yet to hear back. Multiple automated responses that they will reach out to me. Nothing. Fast forward 2 weeks, still nothing. I do not recommend as the follow-up for poor service is silence!!

The house and windows look amazing for my daughter's wedding reception! They had great attention to detail. Some places they had to do multiple times to get it clean. Thanks so much!

We hired LBL Softwash to clean 215 linear feet of gutters, including guard removal and downspout flushing. We were charged $1,075 for the service, which was quoted to take approximately 5 hours.

The team arrived without notifying us, spent only 1 hour and 20 minutes on site, and failed to meet several commitments listed in the service agreement:

No debris was bagged or properly disposed of. Instead, it was blown across the yard and patio.

Dozens of sharp screws from the removed gutter guards were left all over the property, presenting a safety risk to our young children.

The used guards were thrown into the garbage bin instead of the recycling, making it difficult for us to access our trash.

The team did not check the underground downspout drainage as discussed and appeared unfamiliar with the system despite guidance.

No photos were provided as promised, and visible sections of the gutters still contain black sludge.

We reached out via email and text within 24 hours and followed up again, but we have received no response after a week.

Based on the lack of communication, poor quality of work, and disregard for safety and professionalism, I do not recommend this company. While older reviews may have been favorable, our experience under their current ownership was extremely disappointing.

This review will be updated if the company makes any attempt to address or resolve the situation.

-- UPDATE --

They contacted me about 1 hour after this review was posted and sent a new crew out a few days later who completed the job. The job took the second crew about 3 hours, which was more in line with our expectations and the initial quote.

LBL was engaged to clean the common deck in our condo community. They arrived earlier than expected, got started right away, and did an AMAZING job on the black mold on the deck. Omar led the crew and explained the process then made sure to get our feedback and approval afterward. Just a great job!!

Crew was on time and friendly. They were happy to do a quick wash of our porch chairs at the last minute which was really appreciated. We had a lot of green buildup on the siding and it looks great. Windows are sparkling. We are very satisfied.

My house looks brand new again! Working with LBL was great. I knew exactly what to expect before, during, and after the clean. The crew was friendly and professional. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures bc there was so much algae build up, but the house truly looks perfect now.

I would highly recommend using this company. I asked for a couple of areas to be retreated and they came promptly. The estimates are honest and fair. The house looks great. They are not the most inexpensive option but worth the money. I plan to use them again and recommend to my neighbors.

Good service. A neighbor shared a flyer with me. They came out, offered an estimate. I paid half up front and the final payment was made after the work was done. I had so many leaves and pine needles in my gutters. I will for sure look to hire them again next year.

James Miller

LBL crew arrived on time and are very professional, courteous, and friendly. They asked (and listened) if there were any concerns. They were very respectful of the property and completed the work ahead of the schedule time I was given. I am satisfied by their workmanship and professionalism!

The lead technician was knowledgeable & gave good explanations of the process. He explained how the technique for the vinyl siding varied from that given the brick. The sidewalk and brick worked looked new. The siding was brilliant. The gutters looked the best they ever have!! Thank you!

I had a phenomenal experience with LBL Softwash. The team did an excellent job pressure washing/cleaning my 2-story house. The team showed up on time and were very friendly and professional. They earned/deserved a 5 Star rating. Incredible service at a fair price. These guys are great. I will be getting LBL Softwash the next time my house needs pressure washing.

I've used this company for gutter cleaning, pressure washing and gutter brightening treatment. Always quality work. Always on time or they communicate the time change in advance. Jonathan T. did the brightening treatment. Not an easy task. He went the extra mile and it shows. Old gutters look like new.

The gentleman driving this vehicle came to my house in error myself and my mother gave him the correct instructions to get to the correct location. When he left he said "God Damn I'm not trying to be a sick and sell ypu something " We stated we helped you. I have the ring video of this rude gentleman.

Very friendly helpful staff! Roof moss growth was killed but has taken a while to wash off the roof with the rain. Did like that it was a soft wash that doesn’t damage the shingles.

Overall it was a good job except they did not complete the chimney work because the technician said they were not getting on the roof. I did pay for the service which they did credit my account.

I recently had my house and driveway cleaned by LBL Softwash, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From the beginning, their customer service was exceptional. They responded quickly to my inquiry and were able to schedule my service at a convenient time.

The team that came out was professional and thorough. They did an amazing job, making my house and driveway look brand new. The attention to detail was impressive, and I appreciated their dedication to quality work.

On top of that, their pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the high level of service and the excellent results. I highly recommend LBL Softwash to anyone in need of exterior cleaning services. They offer great value and outstanding customer care.

Recently I called LBL Soft Wash to discuss an HOA violation concerning my roof. I had already gotten three other estimates and for some reason I was afraid that LBL would be too expensive for me. However, I was not pleased with any of the companies that came to give me an estimate so I called LBL. From the moment that I spoke to them and then they referred me to their salesperson Billy, I relaxed. For one thing their estimate was right in the ballpark with everybody else but they provided a 5-year warranty and no one else did. As a homeowner and a rental property owner, this fact was very important to me. I received several phone messages which were reassuring and then I promptly received a call from my salesman. Billy took over. He explained everything to me and detailed just exactly what they would be doing. I just continued to be assured that I had done the right thing by calling. I paid the first half up front which I felt was very fair and then the morning of my appointment they showed up bright and early and just hit my property. They started covering my expensive landscaping and got to work. They were cheerful and positive and just reminded me that I did not have to stand there all worried, so I went home. My wife was surprised to see me but I told her all was well. The next day I went and looked at my property and my roof was just gleaming. Aria and Dylan had done such wonderful jobs. It was just a delight. The only downside is that my neighbor's roofs look that much worse now as all three houses in the cul-de-sac at the Gardens of Howe Farms in Hampton had received HOA violations. I feel honestly that you will not be sorry if you contact LBL a small family business to address your needs concerning the outside of your house and roof. We are so thankful and grateful that we contacted them.

LBL Softwash is attempting to clear dryer vents on an apartment community that’s recently been featured on the news for being Slumlords. Clearly LBL Softwash isn’t much better as they yelled at and recorded people on day 1.

They have no idea how to properly operate the equipment they are using and are not taking any safety precautions when it comes to pedestrians or vehicles.

Birds have been nesting in these vents for years, they still are. They need to be rehoused by professionals in wildlife and then have the vents cleaned and sanitized. This company and the individuals running the job, are taking on a HUGE liability and will have to defend their work in court.

There is a reason nobody local will touch the job…stopbreeden com has more info, including the news stories.

LBL came out to wash our roof, which had streaks of black mold. Their bid was competitive with the other firms we contacted, but, they offer a 5-year warranty on their work. The gentlemen that did the work explained the process before starting, and finished the work well within the time period they had indicated. In short, excellent work and service.

Sue Stallings

I read about how gutters are cleaned prior to hiring a company. I wanted to use LBL’s coupon, but the coupon was misleading. I hired this company anyway. The cleaners simply used a blower and blew the debris from my gutters out. The debris was all over my deck and outside furniture. No water flush. No downspout evaluation of water flow. So this morning I went out and had to clean out a downspout. The price of $330 for simply blowing out the debris and leaving it scattered all over is ridiculous. No cleaner, no water, no downspout evaluation. Nobody should advertise gutter cleaning based on the square footage of a house. That’s just stupid. Linear footage should be used. Professionals say this was not the correct way to do this job. See photos.

I wanted to get my concrete driveway and new patio sealed. LBL says they do that, so great. They came out, power washed my driveway, and here we go. It was done unevenly, so there are swirls on my driveway now, but I had some stuff on there before, so we let that go. It also didn’t occur to them that the split in my driveway would continue underneath my garage door, so when they power washed there they sprayed water and dirt all over my garage through the split. I cleaned it up, let it go. Then, they attempted to seal the two areas. First time it rained, it was immediately apparent that it wasn’t applied properly. Called them up, they came out again. This was a couple of weeks later, and rather than washing accumulated dirt/bird droppings/etc, they just took blowers to it and put sealant on top of all of the dirt. Time passed, it rained, job isn’t done correctly. Called them up, they said they were going to talk to a “specialist” to find out how to do it properly. Now…let that sink in for a bit. They took thousands of dollars from me and now they have to talk to someone else to figure out how to do it. They tried to come out a third time, but I wasn’t able to be there because of work, so nothing was done. Now, they’ve stopped responding to me altogether, so I have a driveway that looks worse and no properly sealed areas. I asked for a refund, no response.
In conclusion… if you enjoy shelling out a few thousand dollars and getting nothing in return, LBL may be the company that you’ve been looking for. If you don’t enjoy any of those ridiculous things, I would strongly, strongly advise you search for a company that has a clue how to do the things that they advertise.

Edit: in case you all are wondering, despite the business response, there has been no contact/messages from them. Do yourselves a favor - look elsewhere.

What a wonderful experience I had with this company!! They came to my house in Virginia Beach to do the estimate and Billy was on time and a delight to talk to. It was very easy to schedule the entire process. They showed up on time for the appt and I headed to work as they started and I got home and my house looks brand new! The patios, the roof, the entire house, the driveway… Everything was super clean and looked new! I highly recommend LBL to soft wash or pressure wash your home, you will not be disappointed. A+++++++ service!!

The technicians that did the work, were excellent. They did an incredible job. LBL did our roof last year and it still looks fantastic. My husband asked them if they had time to do our 15 year old wooden fence as an additional job. They did, and it came out way better than we could have imagined. We will definitely be using LBL again.

We Answer Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing questions
1. What is the average roof replacement cost for a residential home?
+-

2. How much does it usually cost to replace the roof of a commercial building?
+-

3. What factors affect the overall roof repair cost?
+-

Several factors influence roof repair cost, including the extent of the damage, roof accessibility, material type, labor costs, and whether it’s a general repair or an emergency fix. Minor repairs can start around $150–$400, while major repairs may exceed $1,500.

4. What is the typical roof leak repair cost, and how is it calculated?
+-

Roof leak repair cost generally ranges from $300 to $800, depending on the size and location of the leak, the materials required, and labor intensity. Complex leaks involving structural repairs or interior damage will cost more.

6. How much is the mobile home roof replacement cost compared to traditional homes?
+-

Service questions
1. Should I stay home during roof replacement?
+-

It's not necessary to stay home during roof replacement. Roofing work is noisy and can cause vibrations inside the house, which might be uncomfortable. Most homeowners choose to leave during major parts of the project, but our team ensures safety and keeps you updated, whether you're home or not.

2. How long does roof replacement take?
+-

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

3. How to hire a roofing contractor?
+-

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
