City Wide Building Services is a full service building maintenance company with 40 years of experience maintaining and preserving Texas’ best landmarks. Our professionals are ready to help you maximize the value of your property.
Officially, Odessa had a population of just under 100,000 people in 2010, making it the 28th most-populous Texas city. However, over the last decade, the population has grown dramatically, causing Forbes to rank it as the third fastest-growing small city in America, which means today, it may have moved up that list a bit.
Odessa has a variety of different buildings scattered all across its area. That includes both high-rise and low-rise buildings. This is especially true due to the fact that Odessa’s economy has historically followed the booms and busts of the crude oil industry, so its building trends have followed these time periods as well.
Industrial services have also experienced booms in Odessa as well. If you’re thinking about running your business out of Odessa, you need to pay attention to industrial services. City Wide can help you maintain your business’s building as easily as possible.
We provide quality building maintenance services to ensure compliance with the highest safety standards and building code regulations prescribed by local, state, and federal authorities. Our services not only focus on improving the interior and exterior of your building — they can help enhance energy efficiency, prevent costly repairs, and extend the lifespan of your property. Our services also aim to preserve the structural integrity of your building.
Commercial window cleaning is an integral part of our building maintenance solutions. We offer weekly, bi-monthly, and monthly window cleaning services for high-rise, mid-rise, and low-rise buildings. Whether you need stain removal or construction cleaning, we have the proper skills, tools, and expertise to undertake any window cleaning task. Our certified window cleaners work full-time and follow best practices and safety procedures by the International Window Cleaning Association (IWCA), Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA), and the Scaffold and Access Industry Association (SAIA).
We provide pressure washing and maintenance under our exterior façade services. This service focuses on the outer walls, windows, and barriers. It utilizes high-pressure water jets to remove dirt, stains, and grime from the external surfaces of your building. You can select between hot pressure washing and a soft wash, depending on the magnitude of the task. Our experienced cleaners will mix eco-friendly cleaning agents in precise ratios with the high-pressure water to help remove stubborn stains and dirt from the exterior façade, leaving your property sparkling all year round.
Odessa is nothing if not a fast-growing city, and that quick growth is one of the things that’s put it on the map in terms of business. If your business wants to maintain a great structure in Odessa, you’re going to need to maintain it with three things: beauty, structural integrity, and DIY maintenance.
The beauty element of your building is certainly important; it’s integral if you want to make sure your building makes employees excited to work there. This is exactly why City Wide offers a variety of beautification processes for your buildings, including window washing, pressure washing, and high dusting.
The structure of a building is something you can’t overlook. It’s important to maintain a building’s structure, especially if it’s an older building, which many of the buildings in Odessa are. City Wide offers building restoration, anchor inspection, and anchor installation, which is a great opportunity to maintain your structural stability.
In general, most of these things are best to leave to an expert, but there are some elements of building maintenance you might be able to do on your own. To help you with your DIY fixes, City Wide offers equipment rentals and anchor load test certification.
The design styles all around Odessa are definitely something to love. Odessa has managed its economy largely through the oil system in the past, which means that every time an oil boom occurs, Odessa has mostly started to build bigger buildings; that means there are many early-1900s buildings scattered around Odessa.
The tallest building in Odessa, however, is the Prosperity Bank Building, which is a 176-foot, 13-story building that saw its completion in 1960. It’s a primary feature of the Odessa skyline, as the second-tallest buildings all clock in at only eight stories tall, or around 100 feet.
Odessa’s history is nothing if not rich; its initial founding was in 1881, though it was only incorporated in 1927. Another one of the main factors that draw people toward Odessa is the fact that former president George H. W. Bush and former first lady Barbara Bush made it their home.
A combination of the interesting designs and the incredible natural landscape make Odessa truly a beautiful place to live and work. You can even find a replica of Stonehenge at the University of Texas in Odessa. No matter what you’re hoping to use it for, Odessa is certainly a treasure of Texas.
Property owners in Odessa can take action before their building is rundown. The structural integrity of your building is vital and cannot be understated. Old buildings in Odessa can benefit from our building restoration services. This service includes wet glazing or sealing of windows, concrete repair and cleaning, and rust removal. It also entails caulking and sealing, restoring your treasured asset, and leaving it looking as good as new.
Legally, Odessa is not yet 100 years old, but its first post office opened way back in 1885. That means it has dramatically more than 100 years of history behind it and more than 100 years of architecture to draw on.
Of course, regardless of how old a building is, every building is going to need a certain amount of upkeep. Don’t think that you’ll be able to avoid upkeep entirely just because you’re planning to move your business into a modern building.
You should definitely put more thought into the structural stability of a historic building than a modern building. It’s much more common for historical buildings to have structural concerns, but if you manage those, you can put a lot of emphasis on the external beauty.
Don’t assume that modern buildings have no structural problems, however. Modern buildings can still have pretty significant issues with structural concerns. As long as you’re maintaining any potential structural problems, you can focus your attention on the outside of the building with no problem.
Anchors support rooftop and façade systems, providing structural stability and reinforcement. In most states, including Texas, anchor inspections are mandatory. They ensure the anchors of a building adhere to the highest safety standards. Each anchorage requires certification every ten years after performing the necessary load test. Our licensed experts provide annual inspections and load test certifications for rooftop anchors and davits. We have the experience and expertise to inspect different roof anchor systems. We also provide 10-year PE anchor certifications for buildings that comply with anchor safety requirements and state regulations. We can also install and assess anchors to meet the required specifications.
Citywide offers a range of rental equipment for working on your indoor or outdoor projects. Whether you are hanging signage on the exterior of your building or installing new ceiling tiles, you can hire our specialty lifts to help you complete the task. We have a fleet of rental atrium lifts for buildings with a reach of up to 95 feet.
We also have certified lift operators with vast experience tackling these jobs and can offer guidance on the appropriate lift for your project.
With over 50+ years in business, Citywide remains your go-to option for all your architectural maintenance needs. Our mission is to ensure all buildings in Odessa stay in pristine condition. We provide architectural consultancy services to help property owners maintain their buildings for enhanced safety and functionality.
