About CLH Painting & Power Washing
CLH Painting & Power Washing is a locally owned company serving Raleigh, Wake Forest, Cary, and the Triangle. Clay Harvey and his crew handle exterior and interior painting, power washing, and garage floor epoxy for homes and businesses.
The crew keeps its work in house rather than handing jobs to subcontractors, so the same painters who quote a project are the ones who complete it. Clay stays involved as the work moves and walks the finished result with each homeowner before the job is done.
For power washing, the team runs a gentle soft wash system that cleans siding, decks, fences, and driveways without stripping good paint from the surface. On exterior painting they prep carefully, protect what surrounds the house, and guarantee they will return and fix any problems at no added cost.
Homeowners can request a Free Estimate, and the company carries full Workman's Compensation and Liability Insurance. Much of its work arrives through neighbor referrals, and reviewers describe crews that show up on time and leave the site clean. Reach the team for exterior painting across Raleigh.

Additional Questions Answered
What kind of pricing do customers report from CLH Painting & Power Washing?
Competitive, and often the best of several quotes. Katie Beth Groover wrote that "Clay had the best pricing out of the eight or so quotes I got, and his crew did a fantastic job removing our popcorn ceilings." Homeowners across the reviews tie those rates to careful work rather than corner cutting, which is why value comes up so often for this crew right alongside the price itself.
Does CLH Painting & Power Washing use in-house crews or subcontractors?
In-house crews. Donna King recalled that Clay "was able to tell us exactly who would be painting & completing any needed carpentry; no subcontractors." The painters who scope a project are the ones who finish it, and owner Clay Harvey stays on site through the job. That keeps responsibility with a single team from the first walkthrough to the final review.
How does CLH Painting & Power Washing handle power washing for homes?
Thoroughly, and often more than once for the same home. Caitlin McMullen shared that "This was the second time Clay and his employees have been out to power wash our house and deck." adding that "he goes above and beyond." The crew uses a gentle soft wash approach that cleans siding and decks without blasting good paint off the surface of the house.
Is CLH Painting & Power Washing good at communication and scheduling?
Yes. Laurie Ruettimann described the crew as "super responsive, organized, and competitively priced." and noted they were "clean, quick, respectful of my neighbors, and great at communicating timelines." Steady updates and clear scheduling come up throughout the reviews, which helps a painting or power washing project stay on track from the first quote to the last coat.
What do homeowners say about CLH Painting & Power Washing exterior painting?
They describe careful, high quality work. Lauren Mann wrote that the company "did an incredible job on the exterior of our home" and called the team "on time, extremely thorough, very knowledgeable, and so friendly!" Exterior projects also carry a plain promise from the company that it will come back and fix any problems at no additional cost.
Do customers return to CLH Painting & Power Washing over the years?
Many stay for the long haul. Verne Ingersoll wrote that "Clay's team has been doing exterior and interior painting projects for me for over 14 years." and praised the same crew led by Carlos. Repeat business like that, built over more than a decade with one homeowner, says more about earned trust than any single project ever could.
