Yes. Gulfshine works with homeowner associations, condo associations, and property managers on window cleaning and exterior washing for common areas and managed buildings, serving 61 South Florida cities across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties.
What does an HOA scope actually spell out?
Shared properties come with their own homework, and we would rather do it up front than argue about it later. The estimate spells out exactly which buildings or zones are included, which surfaces get cleaned, where water comes from, what access we need to gates and locked areas, and how residents or tenants get notified before work starts, typically with 24–48 hours of notice so nobody is surprised.
When a clubhouse, pool deck, and entry monument are in scope but the individual units are not, the paperwork says so plainly. That 1 sentence in the scope prevents 90% of the confusion boards deal with, because residents know what the association paid for and what remains their own responsibility.
Why do boards prefer a recurring plan over one-off cleanings?
Boards care about 2 things in our experience: predictable budgets and not hearing complaints. A written recurring plan handles both. Visits land on a schedule the board approved, commonly every 3 months for common-area glass and 1–2 washes a year for walkways and entries, the scope does not drift, and the property stops cycling between looking neglected and paying for an expensive catch-up cleaning. Catch-up jobs routinely take 2–3 times the hours of a maintained visit, which is money a schedule simply does not spend. The details of how those plans flex season to season are covered in commercial maintenance plans.
How is working in a community different from a single home?
Community properties punish sloppy technique more than single homes. Overspray near parked cars, slippery walkways left wet at school pickup time, chemicals drifting into landscaping the association just paid to replace. Planning the work zones and timing around how the community actually moves is a real part of the job, not an extra. Washed walkways need 1–2 hours to dry before foot traffic, so sequencing which zones get cleaned at which hour is planned before the first hose is unrolled. Larger communities commonly get split into phases for the same reason; cleaning a 6-building property in 2–3 phased zones across consecutive days means no single day locks down every parking area at once.
Access planning matters just as much. Gate codes, locked pool decks, resident parking that has to be clear of a work zone, and quiet-hour rules all go into the schedule ahead of time, because a crew standing at a locked gate is a wasted visit that somebody still has to pay for.
If your association needs specific documents before a vendor can be approved, tell us what the checklist requires and we will send what applies — Gulfshine is licensed and insured, and a current certificate of insurance is available whenever a board or management company needs one on file. Boards commonly review proposals at monthly meetings and set budgets 6–12 months ahead, so allowing 30–60 days from proposal to approval is a normal timeline for managed properties, and we treat the paperwork that comes with it as part of the job.
