What East Shore Homes Deal With
Zephyr Cove sits at about 6,750 feet in Douglas County. Settlers arrived in 1862 and named it after the Washoe Zephyr, the wind that comes down off the Sierra, and that wind still drives dust and pine debris into siding and decks. Glenbrook's weather station, just up the shore, averaged about 92 inches of snow a year over its record.
Wind, dust and pine needles
Siding, decks and gutters collect grime fast on the east shore. A soft wash brings the finish back and shows you what actually needs new stain.
Second homes
About a third of homes in the 89448 zip are seasonal. Spring and fall care visits keep a house in shape while the owners are away.
Lakefront color rules
On the lakefront in Zephyr Cove and Marla Bay, TRPA keeps main colors to subdued earth tones. Homes up the hill generally aren't affected.

Zephyr Cove Painting Questions
Do you do exterior cleaning without painting?
Yes. We soft wash siding and roofs and power wash decks, driveways and pavers as a service on its own, or as part of our spring and fall Exterior Care Plan.
How often should an east shore deck be restained?
Plan on checking it every year. Snow sits on east shore decks for months, and once water stops beading, the stain is done.
Can you work on my Zephyr Cove home while I'm away?
Yes. You'll get daily updates while we work, and the Exterior Care Plan covers spring and fall visits. If a property manager looks after the house, we can work through them instead.
