C&M Services, Inc. “The Soft Wash Pros” handles power washing in Somers, CT around one principle: the right solution at the right pressure does more than high PSI ever could. New England homes deal with freeze-thaw cycles, tree canopy that keeps north-facing roofs damp, and pollen seasons that pack gutters before most homeowners think to call. If a previous company left your landscaping dead after the house wash, or you are unsure whether pressure washing will damage your siding, this is the process we built for those concerns.
Every property gets an in-person visit before we quote, with the goal of arriving within 48 hours of your call. The estimate follows within 24 hours with our Certificate of Insurance and W-9 included. We work Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, and by appointment on weekends. Call 413-216-4588 or request a quote online.
We are a soft wash company first. Equipment capable of 3,000 to 5,000 PSI gets dialed to 200 to 300 PSI around home exteriors because solution chemistry and dwell time do the cleaning. Each truck carries a 325-gallon buffer tank that runs machines at 5 to 8 GPM without straining your water supply, and plants are covered with breathable Tyvek before any solution runs. See the Special Offers section for pricing.
From single-story ranchers to 5,000-square-foot luxury homes, we assess every property before deciding how to clean it. Paver pool patios, stamped concrete, and hardscapes are far more common here than concrete driveways because New England freeze-thaw cycles break those down faster. Our residential services include:
Roof cleaning is touchless, applied from the gutter line, and solution cannot contact solar panel mounting structures due to corrosion and warranty risk. Gutter cleaning is done entirely by hand with every downspout flushed before we leave, and we will not work below 45°F or after a freezing night.
Property managers and business owners across our CT and MA service area get the same documented approach we bring to every job. Our commercial services include:
We recently cleaned the lower six floors of a downtown Springfield high-rise and handled the street permit as part of our scope. We cover drains where runoff could reach storm drainage, outsource water reclamation when required with that cost in the proposal, and can bring in lifts up to 100 feet.

Our equipment reaches 3,000 to 5,000 PSI, and we work at 200 to 300 around home exteriors because that is what siding and trim tolerate. Concrete handles more, so hardscapes run at 600 to 800 PSI, and for brick we adjust solution strength rather than increasing force and risking blown mortar joints.

Before any solution runs, plants and shrubbery are covered with breathable Tyvek rather than plastic that traps heat, and doors, doorbells, cameras, and fixtures are protected in the same pass. We hear every season from homeowners whose last vendor left landscaping dead two days after the house wash, and physical coverage is how we prevent that.

We do not estimate from satellite images because two houses on the same street can need completely different approaches depending on surface condition, drainage, and last wash date. Brian walks every side of the property, photographs each area of concern with bright yellow annotated arrows, and timestamps any pre-existing damage before we touch anything.

A site visit happens within 48 hours of first contact, and the estimate arrives within 24 hours with our Certificate of Insurance and W-9 attached. Whatever documentation your HOA or property manager needs is in that first email.

Well over 60 days of combined classroom and on-the-job training comes before any technician runs a job independently, because that is how you build the judgment to recognize when a dilution ratio needs adjusting or when a surface warrants a conversation before proceeding. Every job runs against a service-specific checklist so the end-of-job review is systematic, not memory-based.

Our machines run at 5 to 8 gallons per minute, three to four times what a retail pressure washer delivers. Most homes supply around 5 to 5.5 GPM, and hooking a high-output machine directly risks damaging a well pump, which is why every truck carries 325 gallons on board and never over-draws your supply.

Solution goes on from the gutter line using ladders with stabilizers on the lower shingles, not the gutters, and when roof access is necessary, OSHA-compliant fall arrest gear uses large hooks over the peak with nothing driven into the roof. Shingle granules protect against snow and ice shedding and are central to shingle lifespan; pressure washing strips them and can void insurance coverage.

Permit needs, drain protection, and runoff management are assessed for every commercial job and handled on our end. When water reclamation is required, we coordinate a qualified outsourced outfit and include that cost in your proposal upfront.
Every job is priced assuming credit card payment, so paying by cash or check saves you 3% right away. Bundle pricing applies when you book more than one full-priced service in the same visit. Small already-on-site add-ons work differently, such as adding a front sidewalk to a $395 house wash for an extra $25, and bundle discounts do not apply to those smaller-scope line items.
A military discount and a senior citizen discount are both available upon request. Neither is advertised publicly, but both are real.
Every organism we treat is dead when we leave your property. A fixed-term warranty on regrowth is not something we offer because that timeline depends on pollen levels, shade, moisture, and tree canopy density, none of which we control. Most treated roofs stay clear for three to five years, though heavily wooded properties with significant north-facing shade may see organisms return sooner.
Visible clearing after a roof wash takes anywhere from four months to a year as organisms shed naturally with rain and weather. If Brian determines that any area within the originally treated scope needs a retreat, including at six months post-service, we return and re-treat at no charge.
On concrete and hardscapes, we work to remove as much staining as possible, but 100% removal for rust, oil, or grease is not something we guarantee, and we say that clearly before the job starts. For solar panels, we do not guarantee production increases because cloud patterns, sun angle, and consumption habits all affect output regardless of panel cleanliness.
Call 413-216-4588 or submit a request through our website and we will get back to you right away. If you share a cell number, most communication goes by text, which is faster and keeps a clear record.
Brian visits within 48 hours and walks every side of the property to assess surfaces, staining, organism growth, and access, photographing each concern with bright yellow annotated arrows. Pre-existing damage is timestamped before we touch anything, and every additional service spotted during the walk gets a line item in the same proposal.
The estimate goes out by email within 24 hours of the visit, with our Certificate of Insurance and W-9 included. Whatever your HOA or property manager needs is in that first email.
We confirm scope on arrival, position equipment so nothing needs to move mid-job, and cover plants and shrubbery with breathable Tyvek before starting. Doors, doorbells, cameras, and anything else that should not get wet are covered in the same pass.
Home exteriors run at 200 to 300 PSI; concrete and hardscapes at 600 to 800 PSI with surface cleaners sized to the area; roof solution goes on a dry surface from the gutter line and needs three to four rain-free hours to work. We postpone for all-day rain, gusts above 25 to 30 mph, temperatures below 40°F, heat near 100°F, and gutter work requires above 45°F.
Before packing, every technician runs a checklist and inspects their own work, and if you are home we walk the property together before teardown to address any area needing a second pass. Payment goes through a tablet, we ask for a Google review via business card scan, and we follow up by text, email, or phone after the job.
Somers sits at the edge of two states and gets the full range of what New England does to a property: winters that heave pavers, tree cover that keeps roofs damp into the morning, pollen seasons that fill gutters before most people think to call, and freeze-thaw cycles that test every horizontal surface from pool patios to stamped concrete.
We have been cleaning across this CT and MA corridor since 2015, and those conditions are not abstract to us. The soft wash-first approach exists because of what high pressure does to siding and mortar joints on homes here; the twice-a-year gutter cadence reflects what the oaks and maples in this region do by November; the weather thresholds exist because rushing a job when conditions are wrong never serves the property. We would rather reschedule than cut a corner on a Somers home.
