We understand institutional procurement — vendor registries, RFP responses, budget cycles, and compliance requirements.

From city buildings to university campuses to K-12 districts, we make the paperwork as easy as the cleaning. Downtown Madison sits on the narrow Isthmus between Lake Mendota and Lake Monona, which makes it one of the most unique urban cores in the Midwest and one of the most challenging environments for keeping buildings clean. The constant lake moisture from both sides accelerates algae and mildew growth on everything from the historic limestone facades around Capitol Square to the brick row homes on Mansion Hill. State Street's mix of commercial storefronts, restaurants, and upper-floor apartments all deal with urban grime, exhaust residue, and seasonal buildup that regular rain simply cannot handle. Over in First Settlement and James Madison Park, some of the oldest residential architecture in the city needs gentle, expert soft washing to preserve original materials. The Total Wash Co. serves both commercial property managers and residential homeowners throughout the downtown core, navigating tight lots, shared walls, and street-level logistics that other companies shy away from. If you own property anywhere between the Capitol dome and the Memorial Union Terrace, we know the terrain, we know the challenges, and we deliver results that hold up in Madison's demanding four-season climate. Serving Capitol Square, Isthmus, State Street, Mansion Hill, and more. 5-Star Rated Fully Insured Free Quotes [Get Your Free Downtown Madison Quote](/instant-quote)[(608) 360-5818](tel:+16083605818) [The Total Wash Promise100% satisfaction guaranteed — or we come back free](/promise) ![Institutional in Downtown Madison - Photo 1](/images/jobs/com-building-exterior-cleaned-dunkin-donuts-showcase.webp) ![Institutional in Downtown Madison - Photo 2](/images/jobs/com-blue-apartment-courtyard-hero.webp) Downtown Madison Areas We Serve:Capitol Square •Isthmus •State Street •Mansion Hill •James Madison Park •First Settlement ## Government & Institutional Services in Downtown Madison Here's what's included with every institutional job — no add-ons, no surprises. ★ Most Popular ### Government Building Maintenance Exterior window cleaning, building washing, and pressure washing for city, county, and state facilities. ### University & Campus Cleaning Multi-building portfolio pricing for universities, colleges, and technical schools with summer scheduling. ### K-12 School Exterior Maintenance Annual exterior cleaning programs for school districts with coordinated summer and break scheduling. ### Healthcare Facility Services Non-disruptive exterior maintenance for hospitals, clinics, and medical campuses with background-screened crews. ### HOA Community Maintenance Association-wide exterior cleaning programs with per-community billing and bulk association discounts. ### General Contractor Partnerships Post-construction window cleaning and exterior cleanup with same-week availability and subcontractor agreements on file.

Our soft wash system uses contained runoff collection when required, and we carry the insurance coverage that downtown property managers require. From Capitol Square office buildings to James Madison Park residences, we deliver results without disrupting the neighborhood. - $2 million general liability insurance - Workers' compensation coverage - Fully bonded - Background-screened crew members - Madison-based — serving all of Dane County - W-9 on file, SAM.gov registration available - References from institutional clients - Volume pricing for multi-location portfolios - Flexible scheduling around your operations - Certificates of insurance naming you as additional insured ![After](/images/web/after_commercial.webp) ![Before](/images/web/before_commercial.webp) Before After ### Proudly Serving Downtown Madison From Wisconsin State Capitol to neighborhoods throughout Downtown Madison, we bring professional cleaning services right to your door.
