Centuries of Architecture on Every Block
Cambridge, MA is a living catalog of New England building styles. Along Brattle Street, grand Georgian and Colonial Revival houses sit on generous lots. Mid-Cambridge and the streets around Harvard and Inman Squares are dense with mansard-roofed Victorians, Queen Annes and Italianates. Cambridgeport and East Cambridge hold modest Greek Revival cottages and brick rowhouses, while North Cambridge and the neighborhoods near Porter Square and Alewife are thick with triple-deckers and two-families. Glass-walled labs and offices rise around Kendall Square. For window cleaners in Cambridge, no two days look quite the same.
Working in a dense city also means paying attention to logistics. Lots are narrow, side yards are tight, and porches, fences and gardens crowd every inch of open space. Our crews plan setups that protect your property and your neighbors', and they work efficiently so equipment is not tying up a driveway longer than necessary.
Windows From Garden Level to the Mansard
Victorian homes often have tall first-floor windows, bay windows and dormers set into steep mansard roofs. Triple-deckers stack three floors of glass above porches. Many units in converted buildings are owned separately as condos. Our residential window cleaning adapts to all of these, cleaning glass inside and out, wiping sills and tracks and washing screens. Upper floors are reached with ladders or water-fed poles, and our aerial lift services handle glass that is out of reach any other way. Retailers, restaurants and offices in the squares can rely on commercial window cleaning to keep their glass clear for the constant foot traffic.
Street Trees, Gutters and Siding
Cambridge invests heavily in its urban canopy. Large sycamores line Memorial Drive along the Charles, and lindens, maples, oaks and honey locusts shade residential streets. Fresh Pond Reservation and Mount Auburn Cemetery add even more trees on the western side of the city. All that foliage ends up on rooftops. Our gutter cleaning crews clear gutters by hand and flush every downspout, and gutter guards can reduce clogs between visits. When a gutter or downspout has been damaged by ice or a falling limb, our repair service can help.
Shaded clapboard and shingles often turn green on the north side of closely spaced houses, and brick steps and walkways collect grime. Our power washing service uses gentle soft washing on siding and careful pressure on masonry. We can also clean and repair screens through our screen service and restore porch and entry lights with exterior lamp cleaning. Inside larger homes, our chandelier cleaning brings high fixtures back to life.
