Contractors & exterior cleanersCommercialGovernment
I run an exterior cleaning company, and I built this for it first. Marketing and back-office systems for contractors and trades across the Willamette Valley — plus commercial and public-sector work. Salem-based, on-site.

On Top Home Services is my exterior cleaning business. It ran on WordPress, Smartsheet, Google Drive and DocuSign — four subscriptions, four renewal dates, and the same customer detail typed into each. These are the actual screens. It now runs on one system it owns.
Customer names, phone numbers, filenames and document contents are redacted in the three screenshots above. They are live production tools, and the redactions are left visible rather than cropped out — a cropped screenshot asks you to take it on trust that nothing was hidden.
Four lines of work. Each one is sold as named deliverables built on products already proven in my own business — you see what you receive before a number is attached to it.
Field service and job management software that replaces the repetitive back-office work — quoting, scheduling, invoicing, intake — for exterior cleaning, roof cleaning and contracting crews.
Spec-first reviews and honest answers about where AI and automation are worth the money in a contracting or exterior cleaning operation — and where they plainly are not.
Local SEO for contractors — pressure washing, roof cleaning, gutters, decks — built on the playbook that put an exterior cleaning company on the first page in various Oregon cities.
Contractor websites and quoting software you own outright — fast, accessible, search-legible, and free of the plugin tax a template charges you forever.
A fixed-scope engagement that tells you what AI is actually worth in your operation — and what to build first. Delivered in 10 business days.
What you get
The full assessment fee is credited toward an implementation started within 90 days of delivery. If the assessment says the build is not worth doing, you still keep the register and the roadmap.
Ongoing advisory is available as a Fractional AI Lead engagement, scoped to a standing set of deliverables rather than a retainer for hours.
Most of my work is for contractors and exterior cleaners, because that is the business I run and the problems I have had myself. The technical work overlaps almost entirely with commercial and public-sector jobs — what changes is the evidence each buyer needs before they can say yes.
01
Pressure washing, roof and gutter work, decks, remodels — trades where the owner is on the truck in the morning and doing paperwork at night.
02
Multi-site and mid-market operations carrying real headcount, several systems and an integration problem nobody owns.
03
Public agencies and municipalities that must show their work — to a council, an auditor, or the public record.
Every engagement runs on the same stack and the same discipline these were built with. They are not a portfolio of client logos — they are the evidence that the method survives contact with production.
The business-growth platform behind the standard. A free tenant track for owners running a service business, the SPEED method the work is built to, and the implementor door for people who want to build to it. Free to read; certifications and consults when you want more.
Long-form writing on technology, power and civic accountability, produced with AI in the loop and the process kept visible.
The flagship consolidation — WordPress, Smartsheet, DocuSign and Google Docs replaced by one owned operating system.
A wildfire prevention, detection and extinguishing-support concept. The software and implementation plan are designed. Nothing is deployed, nothing is funded, and no agency has engaged it.
Concept render. Designed, not deployed.
A governance and orchestration layer for AI-driven delivery: spec-first enforcement, change tracking, observability and quality gates that catch drift before it ships.
The service area is the same territory On Top Home Services works — which means on-site is normal rather than an upsell, and the local knowledge is first-hand rather than researched.
Yes. Public-sector work is scoped so it can survive a council packet or an audit — documented requirements, named deliverables, written acceptance criteria, and answers on data residency and records retention before anything is built rather than after somebody asks.
Almost always the AI Readiness Assessment — fixed scope, delivered in ten business days. It produces a ranked opportunity register and a 90-day roadmap naming the specific first build. The fee is credited in full toward an implementation started within 90 days of delivery.
Plans for marketing, ads and business operating systems are built on best practices in the field, and they are priced against deliverables rather than by the hour. A short ad-spend campaign can be $500. A marketing and operating system install starts at $25,000, with financing available.
Yes, outright — the code, the data, the domain and the hosting accounts. That is the entire point of the approach. If the arrangement ends, the system keeps running and you are not renting your own operations back from anyone.
Salem-based, and the service area is a driving radius rather than a marketing claim — the same seventeen Willamette Valley cities On Top Home Services works in. On-site is normal, not an upsell. (971) 915-8401 reaches a person.
Then the assessment says so, in writing, and you still keep the register and the roadmap. A recommendation to not build something is a legitimate outcome and has been the honest answer more than once.
08 — Next step
No pitch deck. Bring the process that wastes the most time each week and we will work out whether it is worth automating — including the answer where it is not.
A record and a book, both built with the process I sell — specification first, the reasoning kept visible, shipped rather than described. They are here because the discipline is easier to trust when you can see it applied where nobody was paying for it.
