About Tend

A family-owned exterior cleaning company rooted in Lake Oswego — built on the belief that doing it right is always worth the extra care.

A Family Business,
Built on Doing It Right

Tend started with a simple observation: the companies we called for our own home were either unreliable or more interested in volume than quality. They'd show up late, rush the job, and leave before you could ask a question.

We built Tend as the company we wished existed. Family-owned means there's no layer of management between you and the people doing the work. When we give you an estimate, we stand behind it. When we say we'll be there, we're there.

We serve Lake Oswego and the surrounding suburbs because this is where we live. These are our neighbors' driveways, our community's pools, the neighborhoods we drive through every day. That proximity isn't just geography — it's accountability.

What guides us

Honest assessment

We tell you what your surfaces need, not what costs the most to fix.

Right method for the surface

Pressure, temperature, chemistry — all calibrated before the first drop falls.

Clean result, lasting result

We work so the clean holds longer, not just long enough to invoice you.

Your home, treated as ours

We protect what we don't clean — plants, furniture, hardscape edges, landscaping.

What to Expect

From the first inquiry to the finished result, here is how we work — unhurried, transparent, and accountable at every step.

01

The Free Estimate

We come to your property. We look at the surfaces, understand what's accumulated over time, and explain honestly what we recommend — and why. No obligation, no pressure.

You'll receive a clear written estimate before any work begins. There are no line items you didn't agree to.

02

The Job

We arrive when we say we will. We protect what we're not cleaning — plants, furniture, windows, painted surfaces — and we use the correct method and equipment for each area.

We don't rush. If something takes longer than estimated because we found additional buildup, we'll tell you before we continue.

03

The Result

Before we leave, we walk the property with you. If anything isn't right, we address it on the spot. We don't consider a job done until you've seen the outcome.

You'll also receive guidance on what to watch for between visits and when we'd recommend the next service — so the investment in your property's exterior lasts.
