About Surf & Shine Cleaning Solutions
A Melbourne, FL exterior cleaning company built on honest work, real results, and a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Serving Brevard and Indian River Counties.
How We Started
Surf & Shine started in Melbourne because the Space Coast has a specific set of problems that generic cleaning companies are not always equipped to handle. Salt spray off the Indian River Lagoon and the Atlantic coats windows and siding within days of a cleaning if the mineral deposits are not properly neutralized. Hard water from Brevard County's limestone aquifer leaves staining that regular soap cannot remove. Gloeocapsa magma bacteria turns roofs dark gray within one to two Florida summers, actively degrading shingles while it grows.
We built the company around solving those problems correctly rather than quickly. That means using the right chemistry for each surface, not just the fastest equipment. It means a soft wash approach for stucco, EIFS, and roofing — surfaces that get damaged by pressure that most homeowners cannot see until weeks later. It means pure deionized water for windows so no mineral spots come back the next time it rains.
The work is not complicated, but it does require doing it right. That is what we focused on, and the 23 Google reviews at a 5.0 rating reflect that.
Where We Work
We are based in Melbourne and work throughout Brevard County — from Titusville and the Kennedy Space Center corridor south through Cocoa Beach, Merritt Island, Rockledge, Melbourne, Indialantic, and Palm Bay. We also serve Indian River County communities including Vero Beach, Sebastian, Fellsmere, and the surrounding towns along the Indian River Lagoon.
Most of our residential work comes from neighborhoods along the lagoon and barrier islands where salt air is a real factor, and from inland Brevard communities like Viera, Suntree, and Baytree where HOA standards and newer construction mean homeowners are particular about results. Commercial work spans storefronts along Wickham Road, US-1, and the Melbourne Square Mall corridor, as well as office parks and property management accounts across the county.
What Sets This Company Apart
Eco-Friendly by Default
Every cleaning solution we use is biodegradable. We pre-wet and post-rinse landscaping near work areas. Our pure water window system requires no chemical additives at all. This matters on the Space Coast, where storm runoff ends up in the Indian River Lagoon.
Insured for Every Job
Full general liability insurance covers every visit. You do not have to wonder what happens if something goes wrong. We carry coverage specifically for exterior cleaning work.
100% Satisfaction Guarantee
If the results are not what we described, we come back and fix them at no additional charge. This is not a marketing line — it is how we handle complaints. We have never charged a customer twice for the same job.
Professional Equipment
Pure water-fed pole systems, rotary surface cleaners that prevent stripe lines on driveways, commercial soft wash equipment with adjustable pressure, and proper nozzle configurations for each surface type. The tools matter as much as the technique.
Reliable Scheduling
Most appointments confirm within two to five business days. If you have a deadline — a home sale, an HOA notice, an event — tell us when you book and we will do our best to work around it.
Locally Owned
Surf & Shine is not a franchise or a national chain with a local phone number. There is no call center. When you message us, Ethan responds. The person who shows up is the person who takes responsibility for the result.
Our Approach to Exterior Cleaning
Florida's climate creates exterior maintenance demands that don't exist in most other states. The combination of subtropical humidity, year-round UV exposure, salt air from both the Atlantic and the Indian River Lagoon, and hard well water creates buildup on exterior surfaces that forms faster and bonds harder than homeowners in cooler or drier climates are used to dealing with.
The wrong approach — high-pressure washing on stucco, pressure-cleaning shingles, using basic soap on glass with hard water — makes things look clean briefly and then leaves the surface in worse shape than before. Pressure on stucco works moisture into hairline cracks. Pressure on asphalt shingles blasts off granules. Soap residue on glass with hard water leaves a cloudy film that is harder to remove than the original mineral deposits.
The right approach depends on the surface. Concrete driveways and pool decks: rotary pressure washing with pre-treatment for stains. Stucco and painted siding: soft wash with dwell time. Asphalt shingles: ARMA-recommended low-pressure biodegradable solution. Glass: pure deionized water with a water-fed pole. Pool cages and aluminum frames: gentle soft wash with aluminum-safe brightener.
That is the technical side. The other side is simpler: show up when we say we will, do exactly what the estimate described, and stand behind the result. Most of our new customers come from referrals, which suggests the approach is working.
