Built by two locals who care about the work.
Blake James & Lachlan Bommer
J&B Exterior Cleaning was founded by two graduates of Rye Country Day School, class of 2025. Blake is now studying finance at the University of Virginia. Lachlan runs day-to-day operations on the ground in Fairfield County and Westchester. We've been working in this market for two years.
What started as a way to put serious work in over the summer has become something we take much more seriously. We invested in commercial-grade equipment, learned the chemistry behind the work, refined our process for every surface type, and built relationships with homeowners who expect the same level of care from their power washer that they expect from their landscape designer or stonemason.
We're young, and we don't hide it. We think it's an advantage. We answer the phone ourselves. We show up when we say we will. We work hard because the business is ours and our reputation is on the line every job. We hire other hardworking young people who meet our standard, and every job is held to the same level of care.
J&B is a Connecticut limited liability company. We're in our second season and we intend to be the most trusted name in exterior cleaning in this market.
Three things, held seriously.
Process before pressure
The right chemistry, dwell time, and sequence will outperform raw PSI on almost every surface. We build our work around that principle.
Every job is an audition
This is a referral business in a small market. We treat every property like our reputation depends on it — because it does.
Reputation compounds
We don't cut corners because we can't afford to. The work we do today is how we earn the work we want tomorrow.
