Exterior Cleaning in Beverly
Beverly is twenty minutes from our shop. It's our furthest service area, and it's also our highest-value. The properties here are large Victorians with wood siding, wraparound porches, and long driveways on the Ridge. The lots are big, the homes are substantial, and the multi-service jobs are the norm. A single visit usually involves pressure washing, painting, deck staining, and gutter cleaning all on the same property.
The wood siding on the Victorians needs exterior house painting every 5 to 7 years. The prep is the most important part. We pressure wash the siding first to remove the chalky oxidation and mildew, then scrape and prime the bare spots, then apply two coats of quality exterior latex. A good paint job on a Beverly Victorian is a big job, but it protects the wood for years.
The wraparound porches are a specific call. They're large, they take foot traffic and sun, and they need deck staining every two to three years. We strip, wash, dry, sand, and stain. The porches on the Victorians have ornate trim and railings that need careful prep. We hand-sand the trim and use a brush on the railings, not a sprayer, to get even coverage.
The long driveways on the Ridge are concrete or asphalt. We pressure wash them with a rotary surface cleaner for even, stripe-free cleaning. If the concrete is cracked or pitted, we assess whether it needs driveway sealing. The asphalt driveways need seal coating every 2 to 3 years.
The gutters on the large homes are high and long. We do gutter cleaning twice a year. The mature trees on the Ridge fill them fast. We have the ladders and harnesses to do it safely. We also flush the downspouts.
Window washing is a big job on the Victorians. The tall window lines need a water-fed pole for the exterior. The interior glass needs a crew with shoe covers and drop cloths.
We do roof washing on the roofs that develop algae and moss. We also do holiday lighting in December. The Victorians look stunning with C9 LEDs along the roofline and wraparound porch. We install, maintain, and take down.
In winter, we do snow removal for the long driveways and sidewalks. We also do lawn care for the large lots. Call (217) 722-5379 for a free estimate.
What I See Working in Beverly
The wood siding on the Beverly Victorians is the biggest job. We pressure wash the siding first to remove the chalky oxidation and mildew, then scrape and prime the bare spots, then apply two coats of quality exterior latex. A good paint job on a Beverly Victorian is a multi-day job, but it protects the wood for 5 to 7 years.
The wraparound porches need careful prep. We hand-sand the ornate trim and use a brush on the railings, not a sprayer. A sprayer wastes stain on the trim and leaves uneven coverage on the railings. We strip, wash, dry, sand, and stain. The porches take foot traffic and sun, so the stain wears off the treads first.
The long driveways on the Ridge are concrete or asphalt. We pressure wash the concrete with a rotary surface cleaner. The asphalt driveways need seal coating every 2 to 3 years. We assess the surface and tell you what it needs.
