As the summer sun bears down on Texas, commercial properties across the region face unique maintenance challenges that can’t be ignored. Heat, humidity, and UV exposure all take a toll on buildings—especially those with high visibility and foot traffic. For property managers, now is the time to invest in preventative maintenance that protects building integrity, improves safety, and ensures every square foot looks its best.
City Wide Building Services is here to help with a full lineup of essential summer services designed to meet the season head-on.
1. Window Washing: Maximize Natural Light and Appeal
The intense summer sun highlights every smudge, streak, and speck of dust on your windows. Clean, sparkling windows not only improve your building’s curb appeal but also allow more natural light in—reducing the need for artificial lighting and helping create a more inviting space.
City Wide offers interior and exterior window washing for low-, mid-, and high-rise properties using both boom lifts and rope access techniques. Our safety-certified teams ensure every job meets OSHA standards, delivering flawless results with minimal disruption to your tenants or operations.
2. Pressure Washing: Say Goodbye to Summer Grime
High foot traffic and long, hot days lead to buildup on walkways, walls, parking lots, and facades. Pressure washing removes oil stains, chewing gum, mildew, and dirt that accumulate quickly during summer months. This not only enhances aesthetics but also helps prevent slip-and-fall hazards.
City Wide’s professional pressure washing services can be scheduled during off-hours to avoid peak traffic and ensure your property stays fresh, clean, and safe.
3. Anchor Inspections: Don’t Miss Your Annual Deadline
If your building utilizes rooftop anchors for window cleaning or maintenance, summer is the perfect time for annual anchor inspections and load testing. Inspections are mandated by OSHA to ensure all fall protection systems remain compliant and safe for contractors.
City Wide’s team provides certified anchor inspections and testing with detailed reports for your records. If repairs or upgrades are needed, we’ll coordinate and complete the work so you’re covered for another year.
4. Parking Lot Sweeping and Striping
Your parking lot is often the first impression tenants and visitors get. Summer storms, debris, and constant use can wear down striping and scatter trash and gravel.
City Wide offers comprehensive parking lot sweeping and restriping services to improve navigation, enhance safety, and maintain a clean, professional look. We use industrial-grade equipment and durable traffic paints to maximize visibility and longevity.
5. High Dusting and Interior Detail
Summer is a great time to perform interior deep cleaning, especially high dusting in large lobbies, atriums, and retail spaces. Dust and debris in elevated, hard-to-reach areas can impact air quality and detract from your building’s polished appearance.
Our trained crews handle high dusting for light fixtures, beams, vents, signage, and more—keeping your interior looking sharp and clean.
6. Facade Restoration and Building Maintenance
UV exposure, high temperatures, and summer rain can accelerate wear on exterior finishes, masonry, metalwork, and caulking. If your building facade is showing signs of fading, cracking, or water intrusion, it’s time for restoration.
City Wide provides exterior building restoration services, including sealant replacement, caulking, waterproofing, and facade repair. Addressing these issues proactively saves money in the long run and helps avoid more costly structural damage.
Why Summer Maintenance Matters
Ignoring summer maintenance can result in long-term damage, higher costs, and safety risks. By investing in seasonal upkeep, property managers:
● Extend the lifespan of building materials
● Ensure compliance with safety regulations
● Improve tenant satisfaction and occupancy rates
● Boost the building’s overall value and appearance
