Turn-of-the-century frame and brick houses here have original wood windows, plaster, and aging porches and trim. We make repairs suited to historic construction, from sash windows and plaster patching to porch and railing fixes, with respect for the period detailing.

Cleveland Park is distinctive for its large, detached, generously scaled houses on deep lots, a rarity this close to the center of DC. Built mainly between 1880 and 1941 as an upscale streetcar suburb once called the Queen of Washington suburbs, the neighborhood is a designated historic district of roughly a thousand buildings: Craftsman houses, Tudors, Queen Annes, Colonial and Georgian Revivals, and a notable number of frame houses set on Rock Creek granite foundations. It sits between Rock Creek Park, Wisconsin Avenue, Woodley Road, and Tilden Street, near the National Zoo.

Detached single-family homes make up a large share of the housing here, many with wide porches, mature landscaping, and original wood and plaster interiors, alongside condos and apartments closer to the Connecticut Avenue corridor and the Cleveland Park Metro. The scale of these homes and the historic-district protections shape the work: large interiors and multiple bathrooms to clean, period windows and woodwork to maintain, and deep tree-shaded lots to keep up. KleanCierge is insured for general liability and serves the full neighborhood.
