About Us

2,000+ Crystal Coast properties transformed

Crystal Coast Pressure Washing LLC is a residential and commercial exterior cleaning company based in Jacksonville, North Carolina. Owned by Chris Shotwell, the company provides house washing, concrete cleaning, roof cleaning, deck cleaning, gutter cleaning, and commercial exterior cleaning across Onslow County and the Crystal Coast.

Chris grew up in a military family (his father served 22 years) and brings that same discipline and attention to detail to every job. "I wanted to build something of my own," he says. "I've always liked seeing instant results, and cleaning homes and driveways is one of those things where you can truly see the difference."

What started as a one-man operation has grown to 2,000+ properties cleaned, with commercial clients like Popeyes, Starbucks, Bank of America, and Taco Bell. Chris personally handles every job and stands behind the work with the Crystal Clean Guarantee.

Chris grew up in a military family. His father served 22 years, and that upbringing shaped how he runs the business: show up when you said you would, do the job right, and leave the property better than you found it.

"I started my business because I wanted to build something of my own. Something I could be proud of," Chris says. "I wanted to provide honest work, fair prices, and leave every property looking better than when I arrived."

When you call Crystal Coast Pressure Washing, you talk to Chris. He walks the property, quotes the job, does the cleaning, and checks the results before he leaves. There is no call center, no sales team, and no crew you have never met showing up at your door. The person who gave you the price is the person doing the work.

The right method for each surface, not maximum pressure

Most exterior surfaces should never see high pressure. Vinyl siding, roof shingles, and painted surfaces get soft washing: low pressure paired with cleaning solutions that kill mold and algae at the root instead of blasting the top layer off. Concrete and stone can handle controlled pressure that cuts through embedded grime. We match the method to the material and test in an inconspicuous spot before cleaning the full surface.

That distinction matters here. Coastal humidity, salt air, and shade from heavy tree cover give mold and algae exactly the conditions they need. A cleaning that only strips the surface looks good for a few weeks and then the growth comes back. Killing it at the root keeps your home cleaner longer and protects the siding, seals, and paint underneath.

You get a fixed price before we start. No hourly billing, no surprise charges, and no upsells on the job site. If the property needs more work than the quote covered, we tell you first and adjust the price before touching anything.

What the Crystal Clean Guarantee covers

Every job comes with the Crystal Clean Guarantee. If we damage anything during the cleaning process, we fix it free or you don't pay. If you are not satisfied with the result, we come back and re-clean at no charge. You do not chase us for it. You call, we return.

The business is fully insured with $2M in general liability coverage, and we provide certificates of insurance on request. That coverage is why property managers and commercial brands trust us with their locations, and it protects your home the same way on every residential job.
