The Clean Slate Promise

If your property doesn't look better than the day we showed up, we make it right. No back-and-forth. No fine print. That's the Clean Slate guarantee.

How Can We Serve You?

Built for The County. Backed by a Guarantee.

Locally Operated in Northern Maine

Kristian Philbrick built Clean Slate Services right here in The County. When you hire us, you're hiring a neighbor — not a crew driving up from out of state.

The Right Method for Every Surface

Vinyl, wood, asphalt shingles, concrete, painted trim — each one needs a different touch. We bring the right pressure, the right products, and the experience to know the difference.

Seven Specialized Services Under One Roof 

Soft washing, pressure washing, window cleaning, gutter cleaning, roof washing, wood restoration, and stain & oxidation removal. One call covers your whole property.

10% Off for Veterans and Returning Customers

We're grateful for service — to country and to us. That gratitude shows up in the price.

No-Pressure Estimates

Every quote is free. Every quote is honest. You'll never get pushed into work your property doesn't need.

Satisfaction Guaranteed — Always

We don't pack up the truck until you're happy. That's not a marketing line. That's how we run the company.

More Than Cleaning. Renewal.

Properties in The County take a beating. A hundred inches of snow. Months of road salt and grit. Spring thaws that bring out years of organic growth all at once. By May, even the nicest homes are wearing the winter on their siding.


Clean Slate Services exists to undo that. We renew the exterior of homes, businesses, and investment properties across Aroostook County — pulling off the mildew, the algae, the oxidation, and the grime that builds up between thaws.


Kristian Philbrick founded the company on a simple idea: do honest work, stand behind every job, and treat every property like it belongs to family. That's the standard every truck rolls out with


Your Property, Renewed.

Services That Bring Properties Back to Life

Soft Washing 

The gentle approach. Low pressure plus cleaning solutions does the work — perfect for siding, painted surfaces, and any material that can't take a beating.

The heavy lifter. Driveways, walkways, patios, foundations — the surfaces tough enough to handle real water pressure get the full treatment.

Professional Window Cleaning 

Streak-free glass, inside and out. Homes, storefronts, commercial buildings — we let the northern Maine light back in.

Gutter Cleaning

Aroostook gutters work overtime. We clear out the buildup before ice dams, overflow, or foundation damage start a problem you didn't see coming.

Roof Washing

Black streaks, moss, algae — gone. We use soft-wash technology to clean shingles safely. No blasting. No damage. Just a roof that looks ten years younger.

Wood Restoration & Renewal

Decks, fences, and wood siding lose their color to weather and time. We bring it back — clean, prepped, and ready for stain or sealer if you want it.

Stain & Oxidation Removal

The marks that other companies say can't be removed. Rust streaks, tannin stains, the chalky oxidation that dulls vinyl and aluminum siding — we specialize in the work nobody else wants to take on.

From Spring Thaw to First Snow

In Aroostook County, exterior cleaning runs on a different calendar than the rest of Maine. Our season opens late and closes early — which is why timing matters.

Spring (May-June)

The biggest cleaning window. We undo what winter did: salt residue, road grime, organic growth, and the dirt that built up under the snowpack.

Summer (July–August)

Maintenance season. A mid-summer rinse keeps siding and decks looking fresh through the busy months.

Fall (September–October)

The pre-winter checkup. Gutter cleaning, a final wash, and getting your property buttoned up before the first storm rolls through.

Book early. Our calendar fills up fast once the snow melts.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • Is your satisfaction guarantee real?

    Yes. If you're not happy with how your property looks when we finish, we stay until you are. No charge. No argument. That's the whole point.

  • What's the difference between soft washing and pressure washing?

    Soft washing uses low pressure and specialized cleaning solutions for delicate surfaces like siding and roofs. Pressure washing uses high pressure for tough surfaces like concrete and driveways. The wrong method on the wrong surface causes damage — we use the right method every time.

  • Are your cleaning products safe for kids, pets, and landscaping?

    Yes. Everything we use is biodegradable and safe around your family, your animals, and your yard.

  • Do you serve businesses and rental properties?

    Yes. We work with homeowners, business owners, landlords, and property managers across The County.


  • How does the veteran and returning customer discount work?

    Veterans get 10% off any service. Returning customers get 10% off their next job. Friends and family of past customers also qualify — just mention who sent you when you call.

  • When can I book?

    Our season runs roughly May through October, depending on the weather. Book early — the spring calendar fills up fast.

  • How do I get a quote?

    Call or text 207-631-0500, or fill out the form on this page. You'll hear back the same day, often within the hour.
