Adams Power Wash

About us

All work is billed when the job is completed. That gives the customer the guarantee that we will complete the job to the best of our ability in a timely manor. All the risk is on us. For exceptionally large jobs, a portion of payment may be requested after the wash, but before the seal. Again, that is in the case where a large amount of material has to be purchased to complete the project.

Kim and Randy at Adams Power Wash have been my go-to guys ever since I first tried them nearly a decade ago. They're fast, professional and worth every penny. I have them come out every two years like clockwork (even if the deck still looks good - just my way of keeping everything pristine). We went through any number of companies before finding them. And we'll never go anywhere else!

Randy and Kim are very helpful and informative. their crews are all hard workers. We had them out last week and they did a great job. Everyone was very polite from the phone call I made to making the appointment to the end of the job with the staff. We have used Adam's Powerwashing for years. I would highly recommend their services.

Adams came out and did the job that others said could not be done. They cleaned up really well and treated it. They did a beautiful job and I would highly recommend them. Even their price was very reasonable as well and I will hire them again. .

The service provided last spring went pretty much as expected with a power wash, treat and stain of our cedar deck. The home and deck is about 18 years old and we've lived in this home for 11 years. I've had the deck treated and stained basically every 3 years since we've been here. By mid-winter (8/9 months after service) I could already see that the product used was either sub-par or the application was improper. The surfaces (both horizontal and vertical) are practically bare in multiple areas all over the deck. I went to their website in late March and sent a short note asking for contact to discuss the matter. After 2+ weeks went by with no response, I called the business. I was told that the web site hadn't been working and they received no messages. I explained that my deck looks like it's been years since it was serviced and it had been less than a year. I have taken a dozen pictures to document it and offered to send them to them. I was shut down immediately and told that it's my deck or the products fault. "The product should last 3 or more years but sometimes it doesn't and it's not our fault, we just apply it." So they are applying a product that doesn't last 1 year and they don't guarantee their work for anything. I insisted that they should take a look at the pictures. Anyone that saw how bad this looks would know immediately that something was wrong. She said she would let Randy know and maybe he would come take a look. I was never contacted again and he never came by. In less than one year, my deck looks horrible. Bare and peeling all over the deck on multiple surfaces. Mr. Clean is not even concerned enough to even look at pictures to see how bad it is. And they do not stand behind the product or their work enough to correct a job that didn't last through one winter. As someone who has had cedar decks for a total of 16 straight years, I've never seen anything like this. Couldn't be more disappointed in such shoddy work that Mr. Clean will not stand behind or fix. Do not hire.

"I apologize, we are not on-line often and was not aware of this review. However, this project was followed through and handled with our regular phone communication to the customer. A picture of the completed job is so pretty, it is used as our advertising picture on Yelp. You can go to Mr Clean Power Washing Yelp to see the picture. Or click on this link: [Information Removed] History of the project: This was a referral from a friend. The deck had a heavy coat of a different product the customer had been putting on the deck for years. We did a heavy chemical strip (normally billed at $1.00/ sq. ft. was discounted to normal wash price of $.55 / sq. ft) We used TWP to seal the deck. The customer called back during our busiest time of the year which are the two months of May and June. His complaint here was basically smack dab in the middle of our 15 hour days. I am not trying to excuse the fact that I did not get immediately right back to him. I am trying to give great customer service to each and every customer we have. Every single customer is important to us. Every single customer would love to have their project done as soon as possible. Michigan has a short season for everyone to enjoy their yards. Also, sealing decks has to be done when we have sunny days. We have way more rain during this busy time, than dry days. We work through the weather obstacles as best we can. We may not be fast enough for everyone, but we try. I also have to say we make the vast majority of our customers very happy with the quality of our work, our timeliness and our customer service. Without seeing this review, as in it did not prompt our attention to this customer, we resolved his issues. As stated, the chemical used to strip his old product prohibited the new sealer from staying on his deck. We use a lot of water to flush the deck after the strip trying to get all the chemical out of the wood. Then we sealed the deck. He was concerned because the sealer seemed to not stay on the wood. He called and voiced his concern. We appreciate that. We did contact him. We did go back. We did re-wash the deck to even it out again and re-flush the deck. We also re-sealed his deck. Please go to the picture on this site. That is the finish picture. We value every customer. We do our best. The nature of what he had on his deck and what had to be done to get it off had a direct effect on how the next sealer could hold. Thank you for reading our response. We hope you someday will be one of our valued customers"

Large deck, took 8-9 days of work performed over 2+ weeks. But wanted sides and vertical surfaces sanded as well, only did horizontal surfaces due to safety concerns with sander kick-back. So now I have to determine what to do about all surfaces before refinishing or sealing. Sanding that was performed was excellent. All deck nails (hundreds) were all set prior to sanding, very tedious work.

They sent an employee who did a terrible job powerwashing. He didn't wait until it was dry to stain. It was not done properly. The deck, balcony, and porch look terrible. He also damaged our rear door window frame, front door, and siding. He acknowledged the damage and said to contact the company. The company refuses to give insurance information or pay for the the damages and they refuse to reply by email and say that we have to schedule a phone call. We scheduled a phone call with the owner and he never called us. Now they are ignoring all of our communication. I would advise if you are going to give this business a chance to take all of the insurance information up front.

"I am responding to this in the year 2019. I have not been on Angie's List for years and did not know this was posted until today. I have no record of business with [Member Name Removed] in the year 2016 or any other year. We are not power washing in November nor December. Most of our work is done April, May and June. The work performed after that is still a reasonable amount, however the volume of work diminishes in the following months. All of our work is completed by September. She wrote this in December. The damage she describes is impossible to do with a power washer. We do not seal a wet deck....ever. The entire scenario this person describes is ludicrous. Adams Power Wash has been in business for over 30 years. We are an excellent company and work hard to retain repeat customers. Please read our other reviews. The person who wrote this either has the wrong company, or has left a fraudulent report. I will be in touch with Angie's list regarding this post."

The re-staining of the deck was very sloppy in my opinion and as compared to other providers.   Multiple plants were damaged  from over-spray, and vinyl home trim had deck paint painted on it where deck met house.  Owners husband (person who did the work) returned upon complaint and was extremely rude, aggressive, and extremely unprofessional.  Though obvious that he had been sloppy, he denied that he did it and became quite aggressive and belligerent .  With this escalated situation, I deemed it better for him to leave immediately somewhat in fear of his next actions if he remained.  I have cleaned his sloppiness myself not wanting him to ever return.

"Mr. [Member Name Removed] procured Adams Power Wash to Wash his home, then Clean and Paint his deck. The home was covered in dirt and mold. It came out spotless. The deck was previously painted, several times. We cleaned the deck, prep for repaint. When we clean, we note areas that had been painted before, and may have been sloppy so we know it wasn't done by us. There were areas on Mr. [Member Name Removed]'s home that had previous over-paint. We were at his home to paint, and Mr. [Member Name Removed] had the wrong color. So we had to wait for him to get the correct color. When the correct paint was available, we had two men on the job. Mr. [Member Name Removed] was there during the work. He oversaw the entire job. He was happy. The men used tarps on all areas. Again, Mr. [Member Name Removed] was right there. He was very happy with the job, told the men so and had called to tell me so. Several days later, Mr. [Member Name Removed] called and left an aggressive message on our answering machine. When I received the message, I called him right back. He apologized for the message he left and asked if Randy could come out and take a look, and fix areas that were sloppy on the house. He did mention that somehow paint got on some leafy shrubs and the leaves were turning brown. He also, acknowledged that those same shrubs did have tarps on them. Randy went back to do whatever was needed. Mr. [Member Name Removed] pointed out two areas where the deck butts up next to the house, the width of a pencil approx. 3" long. When Randy said those were from one of the previous paint jobs, not ours, Mr. [Member Name Removed] became irate and told Randy to leave. Again, I say, Mr. [Member Name Removed] was there at the time of service and he was fine with how the work was performed and how the deck finished. He was really angry when Randy said it wasn't us. Our work was very good. Mr. [Member Name Removed] has a very nice deck and a very clean home. We are proud of our work. Mr. [Member Name Removed] was there during the work and at it's completion and was very happy. It is unfortunate that Mr. [Member Name Removed] took that stance after the work was completed."

Person on phone described service as problem areas would be scrubbed by hand and then pressure washed. Explained it is a 2 story house and one side needed cleaning on entire area, because of birds. I was told it would be no problem. Person that came stated late because got lost. Did not clean house as explained. Had a ladder that barely reached first floor, much less 2nd story. Did spray, but stains remained when dry. We were told stains could not be removed. House looked better, but not what was expected.

Work finished in about 2 hours. Very thorough and thoughtful about work. One small shortcoming: I felt the person on the phone was impatient with my questions.
