Wisconsin State CapitolMemorial Union ## Cleaning Challenges Unique to Capitol Square 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. ### Maintenance Tip for Capitol Square Residents 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. ![Google](https://www.google.com/favicon.ico) · + Reviews ## What Downtown Madison Customers Say About Surface Cleaning Retaining wall restoration “Our retaining wall was covered in moss and the steps were black with mold.
