Low-pressure washing for Brooklyn Heights stoops, areaways, back gardens and building entrances, gentle enough for old brownstone.
A stoop is the first thing anyone sees of a Heights house. Brownstone, limestone and old brick look wonderful clean, but they are much softer than modern concrete and easy to scar with too much force.
We wash stoops, the areaway beneath them, front walks, iron railings, rear garden patios and apartment building entrances, using low pressure or soft washing on delicate stone.

Brownstone is a sandstone, and high pressure can strip its face and leave it pitted. We work with low pressure and mild cleaners and always try a hidden patch first.
Because the Heights is a landmarked district, some exterior work on its buildings falls under city rules. Gentle cleaning of steps and paths is usually straightforward, but if you are unsure about your building, check before booking and we will follow whatever applies.
The areaway under the stoop collects leaves, grime and moss. Clearing and washing it keeps the drain flowing and the space dry.
Back gardens behind row houses are often shady and damp, so bluestone, brick and tile turn green and slick. A careful wash makes them safe underfoot again.
Wrought iron railings and fences are washed gently, without blasting old paint, and we point out rust you may want treated.
For apartment and co-op buildings, entrance steps, courtyards and paths can be done early so residents are not disturbed.
Runoff is directed away from doors, windows and the neighbor's stoop.
Spring is the most popular time to book, after a winter of salt, slush and dead leaves. Many homeowners also like a wash before a summer party in the garden.
Brick and concrete paths by the side gate, trash enclosures and the steps down to a garden apartment are easy to add to a stoop booking.
Wood decks and fences in back gardens turn gray in the shade. Rinsing off that film lets the grain show again and prepares it for oil or stain.
Inside the house, our carpet service and the full list on the Brooklyn Heights page cover the rest.
