Unlike modern buildings, which are often built with new materials designed for sturdiness and durability, historical buildings to be cleaned with a certain sense of delicacy and caution. The Columbus, Ohio area has many beautiful historical buildings, for which consistent and proper maintenance is, arguably, even more important to the longevity of the structure than it is for modern buildings, considering the age of these historical buildings and the various materials used to construct them.
