About Apartment Community Cleaning

Apartment and Townhome Community Cleaning Planned Around the Property

Apartment and townhome communities have residents coming and going, shared spaces and many different exterior materials. Durham Power Wash starts by looking at the surfaces, the buildup, resident access and how the property runs day to day.

We clean communities in Durham, Chapel Hill, Carrboro and the rest of the Triangle. Work can cover building siding, breezeways, stairwells, sidewalks, curbs, dumpster areas, pool decks and townhome exteriors. We pick the equipment, water temperature, pressure and cleaning solution for each material instead of using one setting across the whole property.

What Apartment Community Cleaning Fixes

Common Problems at Apartment Communities

Building Siding
Siding and trim collect green growth, dirt and pollen. Low-pressure soft washing cleans them without the force used on concrete.
Breezeways
Covered walkways hold dirt, cobwebs and foot-traffic grime. We clean them in sections so residents can still get to their doors.
Stairwells
Steps and landings collect tracked-in dirt and spills. We clean treads, landings and rails with care around doors and light fixtures.
Community Sidewalks
Shaded walks turn dark with algae and dirt. Cleaning the full length of the path brings back an even look.

Apartment Community Cleaning Steps

Our Four-Step Apartment Community Cleaning Process

  1. Walk the Community

    We note the buildings, shared areas, buildup and the spots that matter most to the property manager.

  2. Plan Around Residents

    We plan parking, access, drainage and work zones so residents can get in and out during the job.

  3. Clean Each Shared Area

    Each surface gets the method that fits it, from soft washing on siding to pressure washing on concrete.

  4. Community Walkthrough

    We review the finished areas with you and point out any permanent marks that did not come out.

Apartment Community Cleaning Around the Triangle

What We Plan For at Triangle Apartment Communities

Humidity on Shaded Buildings
Warm, damp Triangle weather brings back green growth on shaded siding, stairwells and walks.
Pollen on Pool Decks and Railings
Spring pollen settles on pool decks, railings, windows and walls.
Working Around Residents
Work zones are set up around residents, parked cars and daily foot traffic.
Matching the Method to Each Surface
Heat, pressure and cleaning solution are matched to each surface and type of buildup.
Communities Across Durham-Chapel Hill
We serve communities within about 40 miles of Durham, including Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Hillsborough, Cary and Morrisville.
Resident Traffic and Runoff
Resident traffic, water runoff and access to each work zone are all part of the plan.

Apartment Community Cleaning FAQ

Apartment and Townhome Community Cleaning Questions From Durham-Chapel Hill Customers

Browse all FAQs
What is included in apartment and townhome community cleaning?

Common items include building soft washing, breezeways, stairwells, community sidewalks and curbs. The final scope depends on the property, access and the areas you want cleaned.

Can you clean while residents are home and using the property?

Yes. We talk through access and timing during scoping, then work area by area around residents and site conditions.

How often should our community be cleaned?

Managed communities across Durham-Chapel Hill can choose annual, semiannual, quarterly or custom schedules. How often depends on traffic, shade, weather, property standards and the type of buildup.

Will community cleaning remove every stain?

Not always. Results depend on the stain, the surface condition and how long the discoloration has been there. Some older stains may lighten without fully going away, and we point those out at the final walkthrough.
