House cleaning in Hinsdale, IL

Hinsdale is a nineteenth-century railroad village in DuPage County, platted in the mid-1860s when the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy came through and incorporated in 1873. Its downtown wraps around the Metra station on the BNSF line, about seventeen miles from Union Station, in an 1890s depot that is the only one of the village three stations open daily. Roughly five and a half thousand single-family houses sit on one of the oldest continuously built residential fabrics in the western suburbs, and the village has surveyed it in detail.

The Robbins Park Historic District alone carries three hundred and sixty-eight buildings, of which two hundred and thirty-two contribute: Gothic Revival at the earliest, then a great deal of Late Victorian, Colonial Revival, Italianate, Queen Anne, Craftsman, Bungalow and Shingle Style. Around that core the village has a substantial modern overlay, because Hinsdale has seen a lot of rebuilding. So a single street can hold an 1890s Queen Anne with its original interior next to a house finished last year.

The prewar houses ask for hand work. Plaster walls and ceilings hold dust in the texture, are fragile at hairline cracks and old patches, and do not take a wet wipe the way drywall does. Original hardwood is cleaned with the right product and never soaked, and painted millwork and old sash are dusted rather than washed. The water is Lake Michigan water bought from the DuPage Water Commission, so soap film on glass is the ordinary problem here and well-water mineral scale largely is not.
