Frankfort is Kentucky's state capital and sits in a sharp bend of the Kentucky River in Franklin County. The river valley creates a microclimate that stays noticeably more humid than the surrounding hilltops, and morning fog often hangs in the valley past sunrise. The historic homes near the Capitol, along Wapping Street, and in South Frankfort have brick, stone, and painted wood originals that need careful low-pressure soft washing. We've been on jobs in Frankfort regularly for years and know the difference between a 200-year-old painted brick and a newer vinyl install down the road.
The river valley creates a microclimate that is noticeably more humid than the surrounding hilltops. Morning fog hangs in the valley past sunrise and north-facing walls along the river bluffs can stay damp until midday even in summer. That prolonged moisture is the biggest reason homes in Frankfort grow algae faster than properties at higher elevations just a few miles away.
State government buildings and the offices near the Capitol campus deal with high foot traffic and public visibility. We provide commercial pressure washing for government and private office buildings, storefronts along Broadway and Main Street, and the restaurants and shops in the downtown area. We work around business hours and carry $2 million in liability insurance on every job.
The residential neighborhoods along US 127 South, the Westwood area, and the developments near Juniper Hill have a mix of older and newer homes that all deal with the same algae and mildew problems. Annual house washing keeps things under control. Call us at 859-312-0704 for a free estimate on any Frankfort property.
