81-Unit Condo Soft Wash at Lyman Meadow in Hinesburg Vermont

We just wrapped up one of the bigger jobs we've taken on - a full soft wash of all 81 units at Lyman Meadow in Hinesburg, Vermont. That's a lot of siding. And before we got to work, a lot of it was covered in green algae, black mildew streaking, and years of buildup that had really taken hold.

Here's what most people don't realize about that kind of growth - it's not just a cosmetic problem. Mildew and algae actually break down the surface of siding over time. Left alone, that buildup shortens the lifespan of the material and can lead to costly repairs or premature replacement. Cleaning it off regularly is one of the simplest things a property owner can do to protect their investment.

Soft washing is the right approach for jobs like this. It uses low pressure combined with professional-grade cleaning solutions to kill the organic growth at the source - not just rinse it off the surface. That means the results last longer and there's no risk of damaging the siding the way high-pressure washing can. For a property with 81 units, getting that process dialed in across every building, every corner, and every elevation takes real attention to detail.

The difference unit to unit was dramatic. Siding that looked dull and stained came back clean and uniform. The contrast between a building before and after is exactly what you'd hope to see - and across a full condominium complex, that adds up to a property that just looks well cared for. That matters for residents and for the long-term value of the property.

We still have room in our schedule if you've been putting off an exterior cleaning - whether it's a single home or a larger property. Jobs like Lyman Meadow are our wheelhouse, and we're ready to get to work.
