Lexington's Distinctive Architecture
Lexington is known worldwide for the Battle Green, but the town's housing tells an equally interesting story. Antique colonials and Federal-style homes cluster near Lexington Center and along Massachusetts Avenue. In the decades after World War II, neighborhoods like Six Moon Hill and Five Fields introduced flat and low-slope roofs, exposed beams and entire walls of glass. More recent decades added large colonials and contemporary homes on generous lots. Few towns in Middlesex County ask window cleaners to move so quickly between twelve-over-twelve sashes and floor-to-ceiling panes.
Our residential window cleaning adapts to each. Divided-lite windows on older homes get careful detailing around every muntin, and storm windows are cleaned on all surfaces. Expansive modern glass gets an edge-to-edge treatment that leaves no streaks visible in low winter sun. For clerestory windows or two-story great rooms that are out of comfortable reach, water-fed poles and, when necessary, our aerial lift services make the job safe.
Weather in this part of Eastern Massachusetts is hard on exterior glass. Spring pollen from the surrounding oaks settles as a sticky yellow film, summer thunderstorms leave mineral spots, and winter road treatments drift onto ground-floor panes near Route 2 and Massachusetts Avenue. Most Lexington families find that one cleaning in spring and another in early fall keeps the house looking its best.
Conservation Land and Constant Leaf Fall
Lexington has protected a great deal of open space. Willard's Woods, Whipple Hill, Great Meadows and the Minuteman Bikeway corridor all bring trees right up to backyards. That is wonderful for walks and wildlife, and less wonderful for gutters. Oak leaves, maple seeds and pine needles arrive on a steady schedule from spring to late fall. Professional gutter cleaning clears it all by hand, and every downspout is flushed. Low-slope roofs on mid-century homes can be especially sensitive to clogged drainage, so we pay close attention there. Many families also choose gutter guards to stretch the time between cleanings.
Siding, Decks and Finishing Touches
Cedar, clapboard and vinyl siding all collect mildew in shady spots, and decks surrounded by trees often turn green and slippery. Our power washing team adjusts pressure and cleaning solution to each material, keeping wood intact while removing growth. Screens on porches and sliders can be cleaned or rescreened through our screen repair service, and post lamps lining long driveways can be refreshed with exterior lamp cleaning. Inside, high foyer fixtures can be handled with chandelier cleaning and bulb replacement.
