HOA and Multi-Unit Community Washing
We clean whole communities: building exteriors, breezeways, stairwells, sidewalks, parking areas, pool decks, entry monuments and dumpster pads, on a schedule the board can plan around. One crew, one scope, resident notices handled, and a photo report when it is done.

How it works
Washing an HOA or multi-unit community, explained
Community washing is mostly planning. The board needs a clear scope and a price it can vote on, and residents need to know what is happening and when.
What to put in your bid request
Whoever you hire, ask every bidder to cover these. Our written scope answers each one.
- The number of buildings and which surfaces on each: siding, breezeways, stairwells, garage doors.
- The common areas: sidewalks, parking, pool deck, clubhouse, entry monuments, dumpster pads.
- How often each surface is cleaned, and in which season.
- The dates the work happens, and any days to avoid.
- How residents are told, and what they need to move.
- A certificate of insurance.
- How plants, cars and patios are protected.
- What the board receives when the work is done.
A typical schedule
Siding and building exteriors every 12 to 18 months, sidewalks and driveways every 6 to 12 months, roofs and gutters every 2 to 3 years. A large community can be split across seasons so the cost lands in more than one budget year.
How we handle a large community
We schedule building by building, so a large property is finished in days. Our largest community to date had 37 buildings. Residents get a notice with the dates, what to move off patios and balconies, and a number to call with questions. The board gets a photo report when the work is done.
Getting it approved
The scope comes with a per-building price, so a board can phase the work or approve it all at once. Most boards see it within a week of the walk-through.
