For a long time, cleaning windows meant a ladder, a bucket and a squeegee. That method still has its place, but for most homes a pure-water pole does a safer, more thorough job, and the glass stays clear longer. Here’s why we clean the way we do.
No ladders against your house
We clean from the ground with a lightweight pole that reaches up to 50 feet. On most homes, even three storeys, every window is done without a ladder. That’s safer for our crew, and it means no ladder feet in your flower beds, no weight on your gutters, and no marks on your siding.
The whole window, not just the glass
A squeegee mostly cleans the middle of the pane. A pole has a soft brush that scrubs the frames, tracks, sills and screens too, then rinses the whole window with pure water. You get a window that looks cared for edge to edge.
It stays clean longer
Pure water dries with no minerals and no soap film left behind, and we finish with RainBlock so rain beads off. A soapy clean can leave a residue that attracts dust, so the glass hazes over sooner.
Gentler and tidier
A soft brush and clean water are gentle on older frames and screens. There’s no metal blade dragging grit across the glass, no dirty water down your walls, and no mess in the garden.
When the old way still wins
We’ll be straight with you. Hands-on cleaning still has its moments, such as heavy construction clean-up or glass that needs hard water restoration first. A good window cleaner uses the right method for the job, and we’ll tell you which yours needs.
