ABOUT PLATYPUSPOWER WASHING
Richmond-Born. Richmond-Built.
Matthew Nelligan grew up in Richmond and has spent his career serving the people and properties of this community. Before launching Platypus Power Washing, he built and operated Junk Goats Junk Removal into one of Richmond's top-rated home service companies — earning 420+ five-star reviews over five years of serving local homeowners. That same standard of communication, reliability, and doing things the right way is what Platypus was built on — just applied to exterior cleaning with better technique and results you can actually see.
Platypus Power Washing was built on a simple belief: hiring someone to clean your home should be easy, honest, and stress-free. That means a clear quote before any work begins, a technician who shows up on time and treats your property with care, and a finished job you're proud of. If anything falls short, we make it right.
How We Work
We specialize in soft washing for siding, and controlled pressure washing for concrete, driveways, decks, and hardscapes. Every job uses biodegradable, eco-friendly detergents that are safe for your landscaping, your pets, and your family.
Whether it's a historic Fan District porch, a brick Colonial Heights driveway, or a vinyl-sided home in Short Pump — we assess each surface individually and apply the right method for a deep clean without unnecessary damage.
