Lakewood.

Lakewood is our largest inland township by population, with dense residential streets, substantial multi-family properties, and a busy commercial corridor. Volume work with tight scheduling.

Conditions in Lakewood

What the air does to Lakewood.

Well inland, so salt is a non-issue. What Lakewood has instead is density and dust: heavy traffic on the commercial corridors, ongoing construction, and closely spaced buildings that shade each other. Road film and construction dust settle on siding and hardscape far faster here than in the shore boroughs, and the shaded gaps between tightly spaced homes hold moisture and grow the usual green film.

Lakewood is our largest inland township by population, with dense residential streets, substantial multi-family properties, and a busy commercial corridor. Volume work with tight scheduling.

What Lakewood homes are built of

Dense single-family and multi-family residential, plus significant commercial and institutional buildings along the main corridors. Buildings are large relative to their lots and often close together, so access, ladder placement, and runoff control are the planning constraints rather than surface fragility. Most siding is vinyl or masonry and takes soft-wash chemistry without trouble.

From our base in Brick, Lakewood is a 6-mile drive.

Lakewood FAQ

Asked in Lakewood.

What homeowners in Lakewood ask us most. If yours is not here, call and ask. We don't run a phone tree.

Do you handle multi-family and apartment buildings?
Yes. Larger residential buildings are a scheduling and access problem more than a technical one: work has to be staged so entries and parking stay usable, and runoff has to be controlled where it would otherwise cross a walkway. We walk the property and plan the sequence before quoting.
What is the grey film on my siding if it is not algae?
On the busier corridors it is usually road film and construction dust rather than biological growth. It looks similar from a distance but it is a different problem, and it comes off with a detergent and rinse rather than needing a mildewcide. We can tell which one you have on the walkaround.
FAQ

Things people ask.

Quick answers to what shore homeowners ask most. If yours isn't here, call and ask. We don't run a phone tree.

Are you insured?
Yes — fully insured for residential and commercial work, including a $2M general liability policy and $1M commercial auto. We provide a Certificate of Insurance issued to your specific property on request for commercial jobs and HOA work.
Will pressure washing damage my siding?
Not if it's done right. We use soft-wash technique (low pressure plus a cleaning solution that does the work) on vinyl, wood, painted, and stucco surfaces. High pressure only goes on concrete and brick. We never strip paint or void siding warranties.
How long does a typical house wash take?
Most single-family homes are 2–3 hours start to finish. Larger homes or jobs that include the roof, deck, and driveway run a full day. We give you an arrival window and a finish estimate the morning of the job.
What about plants and landscaping?
We pre-rinse landscaping before any cleaner touches the house, cover plants that physically touch the siding, and post-rinse everything once the wash is complete. Our cleaning solutions are biodegradable and break down within minutes of contact with water.
Do you offer recurring service?
Yes — most commercial customers and many homeowners are on a recurring schedule (annual house wash, bi-annual driveway, etc.). We bill per visit; no contracts required for residential. Recurring residential customers get priority scheduling and 10% off each visit.
Are you DOT-licensed for commercial work?
Yes. Our trucks are commercial-DOT-registered, drivers carry CDLs where required, and we're set up to work in parking lots, drive-thru lanes, and commercial properties with proper traffic-control plans. COI and DOT documentation are available on request.
Do you work with HOAs and property managers?
Yes. We work with several HOAs and property-management companies on scheduled common-area maintenance, mailbox-cluster cleaning, sidewalk pressure-washing, and inspection-prep deep-cleans. We can issue COIs at the property level and bill on net-30 terms for commercial accounts.
