Details about our cleaning methods and services
Professional Cleaning Process Photo Placeholder
Hard water stains require specialized professional treatment that goes beyond standard window cleaning:
science Professional Treatment Process
- Acidic cleaners: Professional-grade solutions that dissolve calcium and lime deposits
- Scrubbing pads: Non-abrasive pads that lift mineral buildup without scratching
- Diamond polishing: For light etching, we use diamond-impregnated pads to restore clarity
- Rinse with purified water: Prevents new mineral deposits from forming
When DIY Works vs When You Need a Pro:
DIY Can Handle:
- • Fresh deposits (less than 2 months)
- • Light surface film
- • Small affected areas
Try: 50/50 white vinegar and water solution
Professional Needed For:
- • Heavy buildup (6+ months)
- • Etched or cloudy glass
- • Large areas or whole windows
Cost: $100-$300 depending on severity
⚠️ Important: If glass is deeply etched (permanently cloudy), it cannot be restored and requires replacement. Prevention is key—clean windows every 3-6 months and redirect irrigation spray away from glass.
Yes! We safely clean windows up to 50 feet high using professional equipment and safety protocols:
stairs Extension Ladders (up to 40 feet)
- check Professional-grade fiberglass ladders
- check Ladder stabilizers prevent wall damage
- check Team member spotting at all times
- check Best for interior + exterior access
water Water-Fed Poles (up to 50 feet)

Safety & Insurance:
All high-access work includes comprehensive liability insurance, OSHA-compliant fall protection equipment, and trained team members. Additional charges may apply for 3rd-story or difficult-to-access windows.
We can clean during light rain, but reschedule for heavy rain or thunderstorms.
Here's why rain isn't the issue you might think:
- water_drop Rain itself doesn't dirty windows — dirt and debris do. In fact, rainwater is relatively clean (it's the dirt it picks up that causes spots).
- cleaning_services We rinse with purified water — so if it rains after we clean, your windows stay clean. No minerals = no spots.
When we DO reschedule:
- • Heavy rain or thunderstorms: Unsafe for ladder work and equipment
- • High winds: Ladder work becomes dangerous above 15 mph winds
- • Lightning within 10 miles: OSHA safety protocols require us to stop
We reschedule at no charge if weather prevents safe service.
Screen cleaning is included in our standard residential service at no extra charge.
Our Screen Cleaning Process:
- Careful removal: We remove screens from their frames, noting any damage
- Brush cleaning: Soft-bristle brushes remove pollen, dust, and debris without tearing mesh
- Rinse with purified water: Leaves screens clean with no soap residue
- Air dry: Screens dry while we clean glass, then get reinstalled
- Reinstallation: Screens go back securely in their original frames
Screen Repair Available:
Torn or damaged screens can be repaired or replaced for an additional fee:
- • Minor repairs (small holes): $10-$20 per screen
- • Re-screening (replace mesh): $30-$50 per screen
- • Frame replacement: $50-$100 per screen
Yes! Professional solar panel cleaning can restore up to 30% lost efficiency. Dirty panels are costing you money every month.
Why Clean Solar Panels?
Our Safe Solar Panel Cleaning Method:
- water Purified water only: No chemicals, soap, or detergents (which void warranties)
- cleaning_services Soft-bristle brushes: Gentle on panels, effective on dirt, pollen, and bird droppings
- shield Manufacturer-safe: Our methods comply with all major panel manufacturer guidelines
- close No pressure washing: High pressure can crack panels and void warranties

Florida windows should be cleaned every 3-6 months due to our unique climate challenges:
Coastal Properties (Every 3 Months)
Salt air accelerates buildup and can etch glass. More frequent cleaning prevents permanent damage.
Inland Properties (Every 4-6 Months)
Pollen, humidity, and rain create gradual buildup. Twice yearly minimum recommended.
Properties with Irrigation (Every 3 Months)
Sprinkler overspray causes hard water deposits. Quarterly cleaning prevents permanent etching.
Why Florida is Different:
- • Year-round pollen (oak, pine, ragweed)
- • Daily afternoon thunderstorms (June-Sept)
- • Love bug season (May & September)
- • Hard water (120-200 ppm minerals)
- • High humidity promotes mold/mildew
We use both methods depending on your windows:
cleaning_services Traditional Squeegee
Best For:
- • Ground level & ladder-accessible windows
- • Interior cleaning
- • Heavy dirt or stuck-on debris
Pros:
- ✓ Immediate streak-free dry
- ✓ Works on interior + exterior
- ✓ More thorough for tough buildup
water Water-Fed Pole
Best For:
- • High windows (up to 50 feet)
- • Exterior-only service
- • When interior access is unavailable
Pros:
- ✓ Safest (no ladder required)
- ✓ Reaches extreme heights
- ✓ Pure water leaves no residue
We determine the best method based on window height, accessibility, and whether you want interior cleaning. Most jobs use a combination of both techniques.
DIY cleaning works for maintenance between professional services, but has limitations:
Professional vs DIY:
Why DIY Falls Short:
- • Windex leaves soap residue (attracts dirt faster)
- • Consumer squeegees often streak
- • Can't remove hard water stains
- • High windows are dangerous
- • Tracks & sills get neglected
- • Screens rarely cleaned
Professional Advantages:
- • Purified water (zero residue)
- • Professional-grade squeegees
- • Hard water treatment available
- • Safe high-access equipment
- • Tracks, sills, screens included
- • Lasts 3-4x longer
Our Recommendation:
Get professional cleaning 2-4 times per year. Between visits, you can spot-clean with a microfiber cloth and water. This keeps windows looking great year-round without the frustration of DIY streaks.
Florida-Specific Questions
Unique challenges of Central Florida's climate
Florida Climate Challenges Infographic Placeholder
Florida's water contains high levels of minerals (120-200 ppm hardness) that cause white, chalky buildup on glass:
Primary Causes:
- water_drop Irrigation overspray: Lawn sprinklers hit windows daily, leaving mineral deposits that dry in the sun
- shower Rain + minerals: Rain picks up minerals from air and roof runoff, then dries on glass
- location_on Limestone aquifer: Florida's groundwater passes through limestone, picking up calcium and magnesium
Prevention Tips:
- • Redirect sprinklers away from windows
- • Clean windows every 3-6 months (before buildup becomes severe)
- • Install water softener for irrigation system
- • Squeegee windows after rain (if you're home)
