Townhome and condo communities are everywhere in Mountain View — tucked between El Camino Real, downtown Castro Street, and the neighborhoods around Cuesta Park and Rengstorff. Most share the same layout: multi-story buildings around a common drive court, garages facing shared stamped or broom-finish concrete, and an HOA responsible for keeping it all presentable.
Drive courts sit between buildings, so large sections get little direct sun. Irrigation overspray from the planting beds keeps edges damp, mature trees drop leaf litter that stains, and winter rain feeds algae through the cool months. On this Mountain View job, the community's paver-stamped concrete had darkened to near black in the shaded corners — the before photos show exactly how far it had gone.
HOA work is coordination work. We walk the property with a board member or property manager, put the scope in writing, provide a certificate of insurance to the management company, and supply resident notices so vehicles are moved on schedule. The work runs in phases so garages stay accessible, and we close out with before-and-after photos and a single invoice to the association.
Some associations call us when the concrete has already gone black; others put common-area cleaning on an annual or semi-annual schedule. Recurring plans hold fixed pricing and keep the property at a consistent standard — and light maintenance cleaning costs less than heavy restoration.
Ready for a walkthrough at your Mountain View property? We scope every HOA and commercial job in person — written scope, fixed quote, certificate of insurance on request.
We walk the property with a board member or the property manager. Every surface in scope gets mapped — drive courts, walkways, courtyards, garage aprons — along with drainage paths and problem areas. You get a written scope and a fixed quote.
We coordinate dates with the HOA or management company and supply notice text for residents. The work is phased in sections so vehicles can be moved on schedule and the complex stays usable throughout.
Planting beds are pre-wet before detergent goes down, and runoff is directed to the drains. Utility banks, gas meters, and garage doors along the work area are worked around with care — protect first, clean second.
Detergent pre-treatment breaks down algae and organic staining so it releases at moderate pressure. Then a 20-inch surface cleaner runs the open concrete — even, overlapping passes that leave no wand stripes on stamped or colored surfaces.
Garage aprons, planting-bed edges, and tight walkway corners the surface cleaner can't reach get controlled wand passes to match. A full rinse pushes the loosened material to the drains — no residue left on the clean concrete.
We walk the property before packing up and send before-and-after photos to the board or property manager. One invoice to the association or management company. Missed spots get hit before we leave — no return visits for rework.
Common areas cleaned with zero coordination headache. Call or text for a walkthrough — same-day response most days.

Whatever the association maintains — shared drive courts, walkways, courtyards, garage aprons, pool decks, mailbox areas, and stairwells. On this Mountain View job the scope was the community's stamped concrete drive courts and side walkways. We define the exact scope in writing during the walkthrough so the board knows precisely what is included.
One point of contact, everything in writing. We walk the property with a board member or the property manager, deliver a written scope and fixed quote, provide a certificate of insurance to the management company, and supply notice text so residents know when to move vehicles. After the job we send before-and-after photos and invoice the HOA or management company directly.
Yes. Bull Run Exterior Wash LLC carries general liability insurance, and we provide certificates of insurance naming the HOA or property management company as required before work begins.
Yes. Most associations put common-area cleaning on an annual or semi-annual schedule. Recurring plans get fixed pricing, priority scheduling, and a consistent result — the concrete never reaches the blackened state that requires heavier restoration work.
Shade and moisture. Townhome drive courts sit between multi-story buildings, so parts of the concrete get little direct sun. Add irrigation overspray from planting beds, leaf litter from mature trees, and winter rain, and algae and organic staining build up season after season. The stamped concrete on this job had turned nearly black in the shaded corners.
Not the way we do it. We pre-treat with detergent so the buildup releases at moderate pressure, then run a 20-inch surface cleaner instead of a wand across the open areas — that is what prevents the striping and etching you see after amateur wand work. Edges and corners get controlled wand passes to match.
We phase the work in sections so the complex stays usable. Residents get advance notice through the HOA or property manager telling them which section is cleaned on which day, and garage access is restored as each section dries. A typical townhome complex takes one to two days depending on square footage.
Yes. Beyond flatwork we handle building washing, gutter cleaning, roof washing, and window washing for HOAs and commercial properties. Many associations bundle several services into one visit to save on mobilization.
Yes. Bull Run Exterior Wash LLC is fully licensed and carries general liability insurance on every job.
