Capitol Square's historic residences and condominiums face unique cleaning challenges from constant foot traffic dust, event debris from the farmers' market, and exhaust from circling traffic. We deliver discreet, efficient cleaning that respects both the buildings and the busy public setting.


From Wisconsin State Capitol to neighborhoods throughout Downtown Madison, we bring professional cleaning services right to your door.
Limestone and sandstone facades near the Capitol absorb soot and vehicle exhaust, darkening over time. The Saturday farmers' market and frequent protests also leave organic residue and foot-traffic grime on lower-level windows and entryways.
The Isthmus location between two lakes creates a microclimate with higher humidity than surrounding areas. Moisture from Lake Mendota and Lake Monona keeps building facades damp longer, feeding algae and mildew growth on stone, brick, and painted surfaces year-round. Urban pollutants from traffic compound the issue. We recommend bi-annual cleaning for downtown commercial facades and annual cleaning for residential properties, with gutter service before the winter freeze cycle begins.
Condo owners around the square should coordinate exterior cleaning schedules with their HOA for maximum impact and cost efficiency. Cleaning an entire building face at once eliminates the patchwork appearance of unit-by-unit maintenance.
Great communication start to finish
“Ashton and a partner arrived to clean out our impossibly high gutters. I was impressed with the efficiency! I really appreciated the communication. A text reminding of day and time. Also a notification when they were on the way. All on time!!!!”
