Wisconsin State CapitolMemorial Union
Cleaning Challenges Unique to State Street
Restaurant kitchen exhaust vents deposit a greasy film on upper-story windows and masonry that attracts and holds dirt. Street-level construction, delivery trucks, and pedestrian activity also kick up particulates that settle on every exterior surface.
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 State Street Residents
Request grease-cutting window cleaning solutions if you live above a restaurant. Standard glass cleaners leave streaks on kitchen-exhaust films, but professional degreasing restores full clarity and prevents long-term etching.
