Dilworth: Charlotte's First Suburb

Edward Dilworth Latta developed this neighborhood in the 1890s with Charlotte's first streetcar line. Over 130 years later, Dilworth remains one of the city's most desirable addresses. The National Register of Historic Places recognized the district in 1987, and today over 1,000 structures within the 63 blocks have historic significance.

The houses here are bungalows with dormer windows and sloping roofs. Queen Anne homes with decorative shingles. Colonial Revival architecture with original wood siding. Leaded glass windows that have survived more than a century. Each material requires care that standard pressure washing can't provide.

The iconic tree canopy that shades Dilworth streets creates constant maintenance needs. Some of these oaks have been growing since the neighborhood was built. They drop debris year-round into gutters, keep surfaces damp, and create perfect conditions for mold and mildew. Historic materials are more vulnerable to this organic growth, and aggressive cleaning methods can cause permanent damage. That's why soft washing is essential for Dilworth homes.

We approach Dilworth properties differently. Soft washing uses lower pressure and appropriate cleaning solutions to remove growth without harming century-old materials. We understand that preservation matters here, and we clean accordingly.
