Most multifamily properties benefit from professional exterior cleaning every 12–24 months, although frequency depends on the building materials, surrounding vegetation, climate, exposure to moisture, and the property's appearance standards. Livingston Pro Wash can evaluate your community and recommend a cleaning schedule based on actual property conditions.
We select the cleaning method based on the surface and condition of the building. Many apartment exteriors are better suited to a controlled soft-washing process rather than high- pressure washing. Harder surfaces may allow different methods. Our goal is effective cleaning while protecting the building materials.
We can evaluate vinyl siding, brick, stucco, painted surfaces, concrete, composite materials, and other common multifamily exterior surfaces. Cleaning methods and solutions are selected according to the material and its condition.

Yes. Whole-community exterior cleaning is one of our core services. Larger properties can be divided into buildings, phases, or work zones to help minimize disruption to residents and property operations.
