Property Manager · 40-Unit Burlington Apartment Complex

The Challenge

A Burlington apartment complex PM needed three exterior surfaces — sidewalks, facade, and dumpster pad — cleaned before a mid-season tenant walk-through. Two prior attempts with a general handyman left algae on the walkways and recurrent odor complaints from the dumpster pad. The property manager needed one crew, one visit, and a written scope up front.

The Resolution

GreenCore hot-water-washed all three surfaces in a single morning visit — soft-wash on the siding, surface-cleaner pass on walkways, hot-water degrease and sanitizer treatment on the dumpster pad. The PM had a written scope the day before, a single invoice after, and no tenant complaints the following month.

Step 2 — Pressure Wash Day

Hot-water commercial rigs on dumpster pads, soft-wash on siding, surface-cleaner pass on concrete; catch-basin inlet filters installed throughout.

Step 3 — Inspection & Close-out

What the property manager had to say

(Sample quote — awaiting real client sign-off.) I've tried three different handymen for the exterior and kept getting the same result — algae still on the walkways, same odor complaints two weeks later. GreenCore showed up with a written scope, finished all three surfaces in one morning, and I haven't had a single complaint since. That's exactly what I needed.
