I've happily had Simple Joy out three times over the past seven or so years to remove moss from our cottage roof, and they've always done a great job. The person handling the appointments is prompt in responding, and the various moss-removal people who have come out are always on time within the parameters set (a half hour on either side of the appointment time). read more

Wow! I am simply amazed by the impressive job our tech Israel did with the cleaning and moss removal on the roof of our house. Israel was prompt, professional, and quick. He went above and beyond with the cleanup of debris afterwards and exceeded my expectations of excellent customer service. Isabel the office coordinator who helped me get a quote and set up the appointment over the phone was also wonderful to work with and very professional keeping in close contact with updates of the appointment and arrival of the tech. Simple Joy was super affordable, well worth the money and great value. Thank you to your whole team! read more

See all

Contacted Simple Joys to obviously clean our windows. He did a good job. However.......be aware that: 1) He will remove screens from the windows but will not put them back on. 2) He will wash the outside of your storm windows but will not take storm windows off and wash the inside glass or the inside of the storm window. 3) Our daughter paid him in full ($370) upon completion of the job. 30 days later we begin getting invoices in the mail with little notes attached that he would like to get paid. Call him on the phone and explain he got paid, who paid him, when and when he cashed the check. Still getting invoices claiming the bill is unpaid. Left him a voice message today advising him to file a lawsuit in small claims court if he thinks he did not get paid. My take - he is a prima donna. read more

Simple Joys has been providing quality service for years. Today they did our roof and gutter cleaning and inside and out window cleaning. On time. Perfect. As Realtors we need people who are on time and reliable. Highly recommend. read more

Jeremy cleaned up our roof, put zinc and cleaned up all debris. Because of the high windows on our house, we extended the job to also include that. We've hired him for the second time after enjoying how easy the first time was. His prices are very fair and he is a reliable hard working gentleman. 10/10 would hire again! read more

Simple Joys showed up on time and did a scrape-and-zinc treatment and gutter blow on my house and cottage roofs. The employee was professional and had useful suggestions for future avoidance of trouble with one gutter and a part of my roof where tree branches might start rubbing into the roof tiles. It will take a couple of weeks for the zinc treatment to work on the cottage moss because of the type of moss it is, but I'm confident that all will go normally. read more

I filled out the quote request for gutter cleaning on the Simple Joys website and received a call back the next day. After a brief discussion, I added roof cleaning/moss treatment as well. Jeremy came out a few days later and very quickly got the roof cleaned up, the gutters emptied out and moss treatment down. He even cleaned up a few extra areas. The cost was fairly reasonable and within the quoted amount. I will be using this company again. read more

Simple Joys was supposed to come by my house between 11:30am and 1:30 pm to clean my gutters and windows. They never showed. When we called the office to find out where they were, they said they would find out and give us a call. After another 30 minutes go by, we hear absolutely nothing. So I called again and they still don't know what's going on. Finally, we hear back only to find out that they never even put us on the calendar, and to call the office if we want to reschedule. Why would I want to reschedule? I basically wasted my entire afternoon for nothing. read more

I highly recommend Simple Joys - Pressure Washing, Window Cleaning & Gutters. My real estate clients have used this company to prepare their homes for sale and been completely satisfied. I personally hired them to clean both the inside and outside of my own homes windows. They were on time, efficient, cleaned up when they were done and left my windows sparkling. The owner even stopped by to check on their work and make sure I was a satisfied customer. Yes, Jeremy, your crew did and excellent job! Thank you. Vienna Waale, Real Estate Sales read more

Very nice staff, the lady on the phone was pretty funny. I had 2 chimney's cleaned and they did a great job, for a reasonable rate. Clean up was not as good as I had hoped though; there were black blotches on the carpet and we'll have to do some carpet cleaning now...but overall I would probably hire them again and just cover the area before they came. They also came a day early than scheduled, probably by mistake, so I didn't have time to prepare by covering the carpet. read more

I was very pleased with Simple Joys. They came right on time and seemed to do a very adequate job. They did not go above their quoted price which can be very rare for technicians these days. My roof and gutters look great. read more

You know when a task seems inordinately overwhelming so you just put it off until you can't anymore? That was gutter cleaning us. My partner found these guys. Within a few hours the whole job on a large 2-story house was taken care of. They were surprisingly reasonable. It made me want to find more things for them to do just to relive that satisfaction! I have recommended them to many friends. read more

First the good news - Rick did a good job of cleaning the gutters on our medium sized home in Seattle. Not so good was the moss cleaning off the roof. When my wife booked the cleaning of the roof she was told by Krista that "the moss will be brushed off the roof". When Rick arrived to start the work, I asked if he needed to use my power washer on the roof cleaning and he said "no I use a brush to get the moss off". There was still lots of moss left on the roof after the job was supposed to be completed. There was a sporadic sprinkling of the zinc powder on the roof but there were places where the zinc could not reach moss growth even when spread down by the rain - for example immediately next to the dormers on the house. After I raised my concerns about the incomplete roof work, Rick returned and did a little more brushing, but still did not do a reasonably complete job in my view. Things I could have done better as the consumer: 1. Do a more comprehensive search on Yelp for all reviews for this contractor - there are 2 sets of reviews on Yelp for this contractor based on 2 different street addresses - the link from their web site to the one set of Yelp reviews shows all positive reviews, while the other set of reviews are not all positive. 2. Read the Contractor web site carefully - especially this sentence: "The scraping is only to pop off moss 1/2 inch or greater in height..." This essentially means that you can be left with lots of moss on your roof as they are relying on the zinc powder to eventually kill the moss. (I suppose this will eventually work if the zinc is correctly applied to reach ALL moss areas.) So even though you are told that the moss will be brushed off, this in reality does not happen to much of an extent. 3. Ask the contractor more questions and discuss expectations - I would have realized that their approach would not result in a mostly moss free roof on completion of the work and that the cost was very expensive for the actual amount of work involved. (mostly sprinkling zinc powder on the roof.) Bottom line - if you expect a moss free roof immediately after this contractor has completed work, this does not happen. If you think that sprinkling zinc powder on the roof will work for you, then you might be OK. I will be finding another contractor to finish the job. read more

Simple Joys arrived promptly about 3 days after we contacted the company - and on time. Our home was built in 1895 and has original wavy glass windows as well as lead glass. He was careful, thorough and done in 3 hours, 2 and a half stories. He cleaned inside and out all floors. The price was fair. read more

I had Simple Joys come out for a gutter cleaning and treatment for moss. THe technician came within the 2 hour window and promptly got to work. He was professional and efficient and explained exactly what was going to happen. My gutters were air blown clean and he did a great job with that. The roof treatment was to scrape off what he could and let the ZINC treatment do the rest. It looks like he applied a generous amount of the treatment so hopefully in a few weeks the moss will be gone. I was charged 245 for both jobs, a very reasonable amount based on pricing with other companies that do the same jobs. Pending success of ZINC treatment, I will change rating to 5. read more

I found Simple Joys when they were cleaning the roof on a house across the street from me. I desperately needed mine cleaned, my Chimney too, so I called for a quote and they were able to come within the week. Rick arrived on time and got the job done extremely well and quickly! I would definitely use them again and will be referring them to anyone who needs quality, professional roof and chimney cleaning at a reasonable rate - Thanks Rick! read more

This is the 3rd year in a row we have used Simple Joys for window cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. They have always been punctual and have done good work in a timely fashion at a fair price. We have referred them to the neighbors in our townhouse quad and they have also been pleased. We will definitely be calling Simple Joys again next year! read more

Came on time, worked hard on a steep steep roof, cleaned roof peak to gutters, hosed down any messes, finished with a moss treatment. Prices were reasonable, work was done to my satisfaction. I will be using Jeremy again! Nice guy! read more

No Show for a scheduled appointment, no headsup for cancelation, called the office twice to find out what was happening, no call returned...

Simple Joys cleaned our windows today. There were over 700 French panes and Rick did an amazing job cleaning them on time and with perfection. We highly recommend Simple Joys for similar services. V&B read more

I have been using this company for about 4 or 5 years now. I honestly can't live without them! They just came and cleaned my roof & gutters and treated the roof for moss. The moss treatment lasts about 4 years on my house. They will be back again to clean my windows in a couple of months (after the Seattle rain slows down a bit). They are always on time, clean, friendly, and professional. When they clean the windows, I have them do inside & out and they do all of the screens - it's great with a great price. My windows are up high and difficult to get to, but they have the equipment to get to them without a problem. I have recommended them to many people, and everyone agrees that they have great service and prices. Jeremy - I am sure you must treat your emloyees well, because each one I have met has a wonderful attitude and outlook. Keep it up - whatever you are doing!! And thank you!! Christine read more

If I can give a negative star here, I will . They mislead you when they quote you on the phone ! They just simply scrap the roof very quick and dump the zinc powder on the roof, then tell you to wait the rain to kill them. That they meant the treatment. You could do it yourself by buying those zinc powders in Home Depot. the moss on the roof looked no different after they've done the work. No one called me back after I expressed to talk to their manager. I have never received the bill after 3 months, the owner threaded to send me to collection agent. When I went to court to fight for the case, there was another customer had the same compliant at the same day. Now you can imagine how much complains this company have. Two per day ! There are plenty roofing services, why take the risk by using this company, waste your time , money and UPSET you ! read more

Very good job cleaning the roof. We had quite a moss issue and Rick spent the time to get the roof all cleaned. Very satisfied with their work. The only negative would be that they had to come back to finish putting the zinc powder on and getting that scheduled was a bit of a hassle. read more

Simple Joys was exactly what you want: on time, quick, clean, effective, and eco-friendly. He used powdered zinc on the moss on my roof and cleaned my gutters. I would use Simple Joys again and recommend them highly. read more

We used Simple Joys once a year for 3 years. They were great. On time and got the job done well (we did gutter cleaning and moss removal). This last year, they changed to a new billing system and would only send a bill via email. I never got the bill. I called back 9 different times and talked to Jeremy (the owner) or the receptionist in the 5 months since the service and they never would send me out a physical bill. They kept saying they sent me a bill via email; but I never did get an email from them. They finally threatened to send it to a collection agency. I NEVER will do business with this company again; it shouldn't be that hard to give them a payment. read more

Beware of this outfit...collected money up front and never showed up! Fortunately I paid with a credit card so was able to reverse the charge. I found his contractor license but no bond and no workers comp. read more

In getting my house ready for sale, was advised by Realtor to clean roof, gutters and pressure wash driveway & sidewalks ASAP! In calling different companies for quotes, my calls were either not returned timely &/or the quotes were quite high. No one took time to explain what to expect until I spoke w/ Jeremy @ Simple Joys. He returned my urgent call & was extremely kind & supportive about my unwanted move. His website showed before & after shots so I had a sense of what to expect. Even so, Jeremy explained what could and could not result which I found quite helpful. ***MY REALTOR AND I WERE STUNNED AT THE EXTRAORDINARY RESULTS!*** Way down the block, you could see the glistening sidewalks. Embarrassing to admit, I had never pressure washed in 30 years and the previously gray/black driveway with car oil spills and stains LOOKED BRAND NEW! I had explained how picky I was about my gardens. They were undisturbed after the superb roof and gutter work. My neighbors and friends have requested his professional work. NOTHING could have been done better! I CANNOT RECOMMEND SIMPLE JOYS HIGHLY ENOUGH FOR THEIR PROFESSIONALISM, COURTESY AND UNBELIEVABLY DETAILED RESULTS. My Realtor said the improved value far outweighed the costs for the 'street appeal.' wwwsimplejoys.info read more

I had Simple Joys out to clean my roof on July 8, 2011. They scraped off the larger moss pieces and treated it with zinc powder. I told them that the little bit of zinc they put on will not clear all the moss off. They said it would and that if it was not clear in a month or so to call them and they'd come back out. It is now August 23rd and the moss is still heavily residing on my roof. When I called I received a response stating they do not guarantee their work and that my moss will come off eventually. Now I'll have to hire someone else to kill the moss on my roof. I hired them due to the reviews here on Yelp. I can only guess that these reviews are "fixed" by the company. Bad, bad service and a total waste of money!!! read more

We hired Simple Joys to clean out gutters (with small trees growing in them), pressure wash a large patio and driveway, and wash windows in a sunroom. They did a great job, were very pleasant and respectful, and cleaned up afterwards. The price was about half of the other estimate i got, so I was very pleased. read more

Simple Joys did a fantastic job cleaning my roof at a great price. They responded to my request for quote quickly, scheduled the service, showed up on time and did everything they promised. The roof looks great and and the cleanup was spotless. I would recommend them to everyone that needs a roof cleaning. read more

Simple Joys is an apt name since it's a joy to work with them, and the result--sparkling clean windows and a clean roof are a real joy, too. We've been putting off window-cleaning for several years due to the problem of finding a dependable contractor. Even when getting bids for the job this time, we had two services bail on us, but Simple Joys followed through on all out questions beforehand, and Jeremy and Mark were consummate professionals while on the job. Highly recommended. read more

The guys are true professionals and have great customer service. I have been having service done by SimpleJoys for last 4 consecutive years. When you assign them a job, expect to get a great service, just sit back, and relax. I have used their roof and gutter cleaning, and window cleaning services with no issues. I would highly recommend these guys. read more

Simple Joys cleaned our roof and chimney. We are very pleased with the work done and the staff is very friendly!! We will use this company again. read more

I am preparing to sell my home and windows, roof, gutter were one of the finishing touches. Rick did a very thorough job and the windows are amazing. Of course, if I washed them before maybe I wouldn't have been so amazed! He was very professional and helpful in finding other resources that I need to finish getting ready. I'd recommend him hands down...great job and very kind. He also showed up as expected and I appreciated that as well during this appointment critical time. Call Simple Joys! read more

We had roof, gutter and window cleaned. Either they missed some windows or that's their typical way to do their job. The windows are foggy, either not wiped off or completely missed some. There are still visible moss on the roof as well. read more
