North Palm Beach

North Palm Beach is full of mid-century waterfront homes that have been updated inside and are now on their fourth or fifth exterior. Canal-front walls take moisture and salt from both the air and the ground, so the prep list here is longer than it looks from the curb.

We soft wash tile roofs and painted stucco rather than blasting them, because high pressure on a barrel-tile roof is how you turn a cleaning job into a leak. Driveways, pool decks, and pavers get the surface-cleaner treatment instead, which leaves an even result with no wand stripes.

In the country-club communities we work to the association's approved palette and keep the site tidy enough that nobody files a complaint about the contractor two doors down.
