Patriot Exteriors: Local Service, Lasting Relationships
For the past three years, Patriot Exteriors has proudly served the Table Rock Lake area, offering professional pressure washing and soft washing services for both residential and commercial clients. Locally and family-owned, Patriot Exteriors specializes in house soft washing, commercial building cleaning, roof soft washing, window cleaning, gutter cleaning, equipment and concrete cleaning, and more.
What sets Patriot Exteriors apart is their deep commitment to quality, punctuality, and customer satisfaction. Owner Chance Herrman emphasizes building lasting relationships with clients, viewing every customer as a valued member of the community—not just a job. "You’ll likely run into us at local ballgames, the grocery store, or community events," Herrman shares. "Being part of the community is at the heart of what we do."
Chance credits the Table Rock Lake Chamber of Commerce for helping Patriot Exteriors grow and adapt. Through networking, relationships with other local businesses, and guidance on navigating tools like Google analytics, the Chamber has been a valuable resource. "They’re always just a phone call away," Herrman says.
His advice to new business owners? "Don’t underestimate the power of marketing. Getting your name and services out there is crucial for growth and success."
For a company that treats customers like neighbors and holds quality as its top priority, Patriot Exteriors is proud to be a trusted name in the community.
