VANIER, OTTAWA
Exterior Cleaning & Permanent Lighting in Vanier
Compact homes, duplexes and close-set streets between the Rideau River and Beechwood. House Homie cleans windows, siding, gutters and walkways for Vanier homeowners, and installs permanent LED lighting where the house is a good fit.
Built Around Vanier Homes
Vanier began as Eastview, formed in 1909 when the villages of Janeville, Clarkstown and Clandeboye joined together. It became a city in 1963 and was renamed in 1969 to honour Georges Vanier, Canada’s first francophone governor general, before joining Ottawa in 2001. Montreal Road is its main street, and Kingsview Park along the Rideau has some of its oldest homes, dating to the 1920s and 1930s.
Housing here is a real mix: small single-storey and storey-and-a-half homes, duplexes and triplexes, low-rise apartments and newer infill. Lots are tight and many homes sit close to the sidewalk, so windows and siding take more road dust and grime, and shared walls are common. That makes Vanier mostly about cleaning. Permanent lighting can work well on a detached home or a fresh infill, and we will tell you plainly if yours is not a fit.
Exterior Cleaning in Vanier
Homes close to busy streets collect grime fast. Our Vanier work is mostly windows, siding and walkways, with gutters wherever trees hang over.
- Window cleaning: road film and dust cleaned off glass, with frames, sills and tracks done too.
- Siding cleaning: grime and organic growth washed from siding using methods that will not damage it.
- Gutter cleaning: debris cleared from gutters and downspouts, especially under the older trees near the river.
- Pressure washing: front steps, walkways and small driveways cleaned of dirt and stains.
- Gutter brightening: dark streaks removed from the gutter faces.
- Interlock cleaning: paver walks and patios cleaned and re-sanded.
Permanent Lighting in Vanier
On a detached home or a modern infill, permanent LED lighting adds a clean outline and a welcoming glow. The track is custom-fit to the roofline and tucked behind the trim. For semis and multi-units, we check shared rooflines and access first.

- Warm white year round, colour for Christmas, Saint-Jean or Canada Day.

Customer Reviews
Vanier Exterior Cleaning FAQ
Do you serve Vanier?
Yes, from Kingsview Park and the Rideau River to Montreal Road, McArthur and Beechwood. Call 613-854-6779 to check your street.
Do you clean duplexes and semi-detached homes?
Yes. We clean windows, siding, gutters and walkways on attached and multi-unit homes. Lighting on a shared roofline needs a closer look, which we do in person.
My house is close to a busy road. Will cleaning help?
Yes. Window and siding cleaning remove the road film and grime that builds up on homes near traffic.
Is permanent lighting worth it on a smaller home?
It can be, especially on a detached home or newer infill with a clean roofline. We do an in-home demo so you can see it before deciding, and we will be honest if it is not a fit.
How long does a lighting install take?
Most installs take one to three days.
Are the lights rated for winter?
Yes, to -40, and every install is backed by a warranty. Ask us about the details when we quote.
