Roof Cleaning and Power Washing in Newton, Massachusetts
Newton is really thirteen villages and they do not present the same problems. The large Victorians and shingle-style houses around Newton Corner, Chestnut Hill and Waban carry a lot of painted wood, complex rooflines and multiple stories, which means more setup and more care. The mature canopy across most of the city keeps roofs damp longer after rain, which is why algae streaking shows up heavily on north-facing slopes here.

More setup, more care
Painted wood, a lot of it
The large Victorians and shingle-style houses carry more painted surface than anything else we work on, and most of it is detail rather than flat run.
Complex rooflines
Dormers, turrets, valleys and multiple pitches. Every one of those is a place where the approach has to be worked out rather than assumed.
Multiple stories
Three stories changes the equipment and it changes the price. We say which one you are looking at when we walk the property.
The canopy is the other constant. It keeps roofs damp longer after rain across most of the city, so the north-facing slopes streak heavily while the south side can still look close to new. That asymmetry is the single most common thing Newton homeowners call about.
