Zach's responsiveness and flexibility made scheduling a breeze – talk about service with a smile! When the big day arrived, He was punctual to the minute, ready to tackle dirt and grime like a superhero on a mission. Professionalism? Check. Courtesy? Double check. Efficiency? Off the charts! And oh, the results! My driveway, patio, and siding are shining brighter than a Hollywood star's smile. I half-expected to see my reflection in the gleaming surfaces. They didn't just clean; they performed a dirt exorcism! But wait, there's more! Not only did they zap away every speck of filth, but they also treated my property like royalty, leaving it in a state of spotless perfection.

We hired Zach to pressure wash our driveway, and house. He was prompt, very accommodating with our schedule and his work was impeccable! We will definitely be recommending his services to everyone we know!

I was very impressed with the work Zach’s Pressure Washing did for me today. He was very responsive to my booking inquiry, arrived promptly, was courteous and professional and priced at an excellent value. I just went out to take a look at the driveway, sidewalk and front porch he cleaned. I hadn’t seen it since it dried. My house is over 7 years old and the concrete was showing some severe mold from the weather and my irrigation hitting it. I’m not exaggerating when I write that it looks brand new right now. This should keep the HOA nasty grams away for a long time. Will definitely use him again when my house needs to be pressure washed in the spring!

Zach was on time, very professional, courteous, very thorough and did a fantastic job on my lanai. I would definitely recommend him.

Zack is a aspiring young man with an entrepreneurial spirit to build a good business from scratch.

I had Zach's Pressure washing do a soft wash on my house this past weekend. I would highly recommend using them for all your pressure washing needs.

A neighbor recommended Zach and his company to pressure wash the exterior of my home, which included the house, lanai (pavers and pool cage), sidewalks and driveway. Zach is responsive and communicates well. His prices are reasonable and he does great work.

I would recommend Zach for all your pressure washing needs!

Zach has been awesome to us! We’ve used him a couple times now, and he’s been responsive and quick. He’s laid back and hard working…which makes me want to use him even more. Our HOA hits us with a warning every once in a while and I’ve tried to take care of it on my own, but the pressure washer I have at my house just cannot accomplish what he can. He’s super fair priced and saves me time too. I’m 100% on team Zach.

Highly recommend! I have used Zach’s services multiple times the past 3-4 years, and he has never disappointed! He has been professional, courteous, and never failed to impress us with his work.

He was on time, responsive and very professional! His work is excellent and he is very very reasonable! 3/4 the cost of another local company who didn’t take the time to do a good job and ruined our outdoor tv! I highly recommend Zach!!!!!

Zach is a true professional! Great service at a great price. Highly recommended!

Zach has pressure washed our pool pavers and screen enclosure twice now in the last 4 years and does amazing work for a reasonable price. Did paver sealer too and it came out great. Highly recommend!

Zach did a great job on our driveway, sidewalk, lanai, and gutters. His was very responsive to our initial request from his website, was able to schedule us quickly, and performed the work on time and with great value.

Zach did an awesome job on my house, driveway, and sidewalk. The soffit on my house was covered with hundreds of caterpillar cocoons after being overrun by so many caterpillars. It was a very difficult job. Zach cleaned up every cocoon and now my home is beautiful again. He was very friendly and hardworking. I’ll definitely use his services again!

Great job and great value. Finished my driveway and walkways in an hour.

Highly recommend Zach's Pressure Washing. He is very thorough, professional, and reasonable in cost. Our vinyl fence, driveway, and sidewalks are now free of dirt, grime, and rust.

My fence, pool screen, and lanai hadn't been cleaned for at least 3 years. Lots of mold on the fence and spider webs on the screen. Zach came out and gave me an estimate and his price was less than I expected so I didn't even call around. He did an amazing job and I highly recommend him to everyone who needs pressure washing done. Thank you Zach!!!

Highly recommend! I was in a pinch and Zach fit me in the next day. He did an excellent job and he is great to work with! Thank you Zach!!!

Very professional and absolutely amazing roof cleaning job at a very reasonable price.

I heard about Zachs Pressure Washing from the Fishhawk Neighborhood FB page, a page I still follow even though I now live in Seffner. I’m so glad this company expands outside of Lithia. Zach was punctual, professional and his prices were reasonable. I’ve worked with numerous pressure wash companies in my 25 years in Florida. Zachs Pressure Washing is by far the best. Definitely add on the window wash. I was skeptical as I usually hire a company that specializes in windows. Zach had the windows looking amazing at a much more reasonable cost.
