You take good care of your home or property, but Knoxville’s weather can make exterior buildup hard to stay ahead of. Algae, mold, mildew, dirt, and staining can return again and again on siding, shingles, concrete, gutters, windows, patios, and pool surrounds. Some surfaces need pressure. Others need a safer soft wash approach. Knowing the difference matters, especially when the wrong method can damage siding, shingles, paint, landscaping, or outdoor surfaces.
That’s why we built SmartWash around one principle: you should never have to guess whether the company you hired knows what it’s doing. Our team brings over 18 years of exterior cleaning experience and more than 600 five-star reviews from Knoxville homeowners who trusted us with the same decision you’re facing. We’ll tell you exactly what your property needs before we start, and we’ll protect it throughout the process.
Whether you need residential or commercial exterior cleaning, the goal is simple: help your property look cleaner, feel better cared for, and stay protected without turning the project into a stressful guessing game.
Imagine pulling into your driveway and your home looking as good as the day you moved in: no green streaks on the siding, no black stains on the roof, no embarrassment when guests pull up. That’s the kind of result our customers call us back for every year.
Algae and mold don’t just look bad. Left untreated, they can accelerate shingle deterioration, compromise paint and siding, and reduce your property’s value. The longer it sits, the harder it is to remove and the more likely you are to need a replacement instead of a cleaning.

Algae, mold, and mildew can make siding look older than it is and may continue spreading if left untreated. We soft wash your siding with a bleach, soap, and water solution applied at low pressure, and we protect your plants throughout the entire process. If algae returns within one year, we come back at no charge.
Pressure washing shingles causes damage and can void your manufacturer warranty. We soft wash following Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association guidelines, working from ladders whenever possible. We service asphalt shingles, metal roofs, and occasional slate. Every roof cleaning comes with a three-year warranty.
Your patio, pool deck, and outdoor concrete surfaces take a beating from weather, algae, and foot traffic. We pre-treat the surface, clean with a professional rotary surface cleaner using as little pressure as the job requires, and post-treat when needed.
Move your cars out before we arrive and we handle the rest. We pre-treat, clean with a rotary surface cleaner, and rinse. We clean concrete and paver driveways. Asphalt is not part of this service, and oil stain removal depends on the condition and depth of the stain.
Your home is likely the biggest investment you own. The way it looks on the outside affects its value, its curb appeal, and whether you actually enjoy coming home. We handle every major exterior surface, and any available multi-service savings can be reviewed during the quote.
Larger surfaces, tenant schedules, water access, runoff concerns, and daily operations all need to be considered before the work begins. SmartWash helps property managers plan the work clearly so the service fits the site instead of disrupting it.
Call us or fill out the request form. We use an AI answering system so your call is captured no matter when you reach out, and a real person follows up the same day. We do not provide instant quotes, but most customers have an accurate number in hand the same day they reach out.
In most cases, we do not need to come out before giving you a number. We review your property using satellite imaging, real estate photos, and online property data to measure surfaces and understand what the job involves.
This means no wasted visit for you and no added cost for us to send someone out unnecessarily.
For properties with complex layouts, unclear access points, or larger commercial scopes where photos are not enough to build an accurate quote, we schedule a quick on-site visit first. This is how we make sure you get a number that reflects the actual job rather than a rough guess.
Once you accept the quote, we send a confirmation by both email and text. You will also receive a reminder one week before your appointment and another 24 hours ahead. No last-minute surprises on either side.
Your quote arrives by email and as a text with a direct link so you can review it wherever you are. If we have not heard back after a couple of days, we follow up with a phone call and a series of automated reminders. We just want to make sure it reaches you.
After the job is done, you will receive a review request and periodic reminders over the coming months. A lot of our repeat customers come back when their one-year reminder arrives. For commercial clients, we track your property’s cleaning cycle and follow up when it is time to book again.
Exterior cleaning is not just about making a surface look better for a day. The right method depends on the material, the level of buildup, the surrounding landscaping, and the risk of damage.
With over 18 years of exterior cleaning experience, our team has seen almost every surface, stain, and situation which means we know how to tell you what your property actually needs before we ever touch it. No upselling. No guesswork.
Choosing an exterior cleaning company can feel uncertain, especially when you are trusting someone with your home, landscaping, roof, windows, or commercial property.
SmartWash has earned 600+ public reviews from Knoxville-area customers, giving you a way to see how other property owners have experienced the service before you make a decision.
We invest in high-quality professional pressure washing equipment because good equipment does not break down mid-job. That matters to you more than it might seem.
SmartWash invests in professional-grade exterior cleaning equipment so your appointment is less likely to be disrupted by avoidable equipment problems.
You should not have to wonder whether your landscaping, pets, or property will be considered during the job. For house washing, we pre-wet plants before applying solution, rinse during the cleaning, and rinse again during cleanup.
For roof cleaning, one technician handles the roof while another remains on the ground to focus on plant and property protection. We also ask that pets stay out of the immediate work area while service is active.
For multi-story commercial properties, access and insurance matter. SmartWash has two certified technicians for high-rise exterior work, including window cleaning, pressure washing, and dryer vent cleaning. We also carry specific insurance for high-rise jobs along with $3 million in standard coverage.
That helps property managers move forward with clearer expectations and better protection for larger commercial scopes.
Every house washing comes with a one-year algae return guarantee: if algae comes back within twelve months, we return and handle it at no charge, no calls, no debates. Every roof cleaning comes with a three-year warranty. And if anything else doesn’t look right after we leave, call us. We come back, we look at it, and we make it right.
No, and we want to be straight about that. You submit a quote request by calling (865) 383-3622 or filling out the form and we typically respond the same day after reviewing your property using satellite imaging, real estate photos, and online data. For complex properties or larger commercial jobs, we may schedule a brief site visit to make sure the number we give you is accurate.
No. We pre-wet your plants before applying any solution, rinse them while we clean your home, and rinse them again during cleanup. On roof cleaning jobs, one crew member stays on the ground the entire time with the sole responsibility of keeping your plants and property protected.
Every house washing job comes with a one-year algae return guarantee. If algae comes back within twelve months of your service, call us. We return and take care of it at no charge.
We focus on composite decks, concrete and paver patios, pool surrounds, and outdoor hardscapes. We do not take on wood deck restoration.
For residential soft washing, we use your home's water supply. Soft washing uses very little water, typically only a few dollars' worth per job. For commercial projects that need higher volume than a standard supply can handle, we can access fire hydrant meters.
Yes. When you call or submit a request, your inquiry is captured so our team can follow up and help you with the next step. A real person follows up the same day.
Yes. After your service, we send reminders at regular intervals. Many customers schedule again after their one-year reminder.
For commercial properties, most cleaned surfaces benefit from service every six months to a year depending on the surface type and exposure.
