The homes of Fort Lee
Fort Lee stands on top of the Palisades at the New Jersey end of the George Washington Bridge, with the Hudson River below and Manhattan on the far bank. It is a borough of towers. Census figures count about 19,700 homes for some 40,000 people, and three in five of those homes, 61 percent, are found in buildings of 20 or more units. Single family houses make up 21 percent, and the small remainder is divided between houses of 2 to 4 units and buildings of 5 to 19. Height does not mean renting here. Owner occupied homes come to 55 percent of the occupied total, so a good many apartments in the tall buildings belong to the people living in them. Few homes are old: 5 percent predate 1940, and the median year built is 1971.
How a visit works here
A Fort Lee visit is arranged with the building first and with us second. The rules of the house apply to owners and tenants alike, and the front desk or the management office can tell you what they are: the entrance and the elevator to use, the days and hours allowed, and where a work vehicle may wait. Ask a few days ahead and give us the answers with your floor. At a house, the driveway and the nearest door are what we ask about. Drying usually takes a few hours and varies with the material, the weather and the airflow, so keep the ventilation running afterward.

Fort Lee: questions, answered
Does my Fort Lee building have to approve a cleaning visit?
That is for the building to say, so ask before you call. About three in five Fort Lee homes are in towers and other large buildings, and each sets its own rules for outside workers: the entrance, the elevator, the days and the hours. Bring us those rules with your floor and apartment number, and the visit is planned around them.
How long do carpet and furniture take to dry in a Fort Lee high rise?
Usually a few hours. The time depends on the material, on the weather and on the air moving through the rooms, and wool or thick fabric is slower than a thin synthetic. If the windows on your floor open only a little, keep the air conditioning or the heat running with the fan on until everything feels dry to the hand.
Do you clean houses in Fort Lee as well as apartments?
Yes. Single family houses are 21 percent of Fort Lee homes, and we clean wall to wall carpet on their stairs and in their halls as well as in the rooms. For a house, tell us the rooms, the number of carpeted steps and where we can park. The quote is free and is worked out from the size, the material and the condition.
