Fire Fighter Started a Pressure Washing Company
Bailey Brothers Exterior Cleaning was founded by Tyler Bailey, a working firefighter and paramedic, after years of looking for something more meaningful to do on his off shifts than sit in a post-shift funk. Twelve years in the Greater Lansing area later, the company is family-owned, locally owned — and built around a single discipline: every job, done to the standard Tyler would expect on his own home.

The Story Behind Bailey Brothers
I’m a career firefighter/paramedic. I’d come home after being up multiple times a night and would get into a funk. One day I decided I wanted to do something more than just coming home with nothing to do, so I started a power washing business.
Tyler Bailey is a career firefighter and paramedic with a busy department. The kind of department where a typical shift means being up three or four times a night running calls. He’d come home from those shifts looking for something to point his energy at — something tangible, something he could finish, something he could be proud of when the day ended.
Tyler had pressure-washing experience from his high-school years. He didn’t have soft-washing experience, so he taught himself — through YouTube, manufacturer references, and a co-worker at the fire department who’d built his own power washing business. The discipline wasn’t new; the technique was. As a 16-year-old in his first job, Tyler had been taught the importance of showing up on time, staying busy, and taking pride in whatever the work was. Twelve years later in the Lansing area, that’s still the standard the company runs on.
What started as a way to fill off-shift time grew into Bailey Brothers Exterior Cleaning — locally owned, family-owned, and operating across the Lansing tri-county area. Whether Tyler is on a specific job or not, the standard travels with the company — not with one person on one truck.
About the “Brothers” Name
Bailey Brothers is the family-business name we operate under. The “brothers” is intentional. It means every crew member — whether they share the Bailey last name or not — operates as a brother to the next, accountable to the same standard, the same insurance policy, the same workmanship guarantee, the same client.
Tyler hires and trains to that standard so every property we work on receives the Bailey Brothers level of care, regardless of which crew shows up or which day it is. The standard travels with the company, not with one person on one truck.
What We Stand For
Quality
" I treat every job like it’s being done for me. If the job isn’t to my standards, then it certainly isn’t going to be to the customer’s standards. "
Tyler Bailey
Trust
" You should trust our business because we have built a reputation focused on being honest, delivering quality, and treating every customer fairly. We stand behind our work and make sure our customers are satisfied. "
Tyler Bailey
Service Recovery
If a job isn’t right, we come back and re-do it. Free re-service if you’re not satisfied with the results — every customer, every job. That’s the offer Tyler made the day he started the business and it hasn’t changed.
Honest Pricing
The estimate you sign is the price you pay. We measure on-site, then quote — per-job estimate, by square footage, by linear foot, or a combination depending on what makes the math fair. No bait-and-switch. No “extra surface area” charges added after we’re done.
Local & Accountable to Lansing
Family-owned. Locally owned and operated. We answer to our neighbors and to the homeowners and businesses across the Lansing tri-county area — not to a national franchise office. We’ve been here for 12 years. We’ll be here next year if you need us back, the year after that, and the year after that.
How We Show Up in the Community
Bailey Brothers isn’t just a business that operates in the Lansing area — it’s a business that’s tied into it. We’ve sponsored local sports teams. And we donate to suicide awareness causes — a cause that hits close to home for Tyler given his work in the fire/EMS world. The same accountability that shows up on calls is the same accountability that shows up on cleaning jobs and in the neighborhoods we serve. They have donated to Lansing Cathlic robotic program.
