Guides
We've replaced years of thin blog posts with a smaller set of guides that actually answer what homeowners ask us.
Twice a year suits most homes here: spring to clear off the pollen and salt-laden winter grime, and fall to head into winter with clear glass. Homes on busy roads, near fields, or under heavy tree cover often want a third visit.
Streaks come from dirty water, worn squeegee rubber, and cleaning hot glass in direct sun. We change water often, keep fresh rubber on the channel, and work a house shade-side first so the solution isn't drying before the blade reaches it.
Sprinkler overspray and runoff leave mineral deposits that ordinary washing won't touch. Fresh deposits usually come off with an acidic restoration treatment. Deposits that have etched into the glass over years can't be fully removed by anyone — and we'll tell you that honestly instead of charging you to find out.
A spotless pane behind a grey screen still looks dirty. Screens should be removed, washed and dried, and sills and tracks vacuumed and wiped. It's included in our residential window cleaning rather than sold as an add-on.
Hand cleaning with soap and a squeegee is best wherever we can safely reach. For upper floors with awkward footing, a water-fed pole running purified water rinses spot-free and keeps a ladder off soft ground and landscaping. Good crews use both, chosen per window.
Clear sills of plants and knick-knacks, unlock windows we'll be doing inside, and let us know about any panes that are cracked or painted shut. Pets are fine — just tell us where the doors will be opening.
