What if it rains on my scheduled outside window cleaning day?
If it is not raining it is our policy to complete the job as scheduled. If it is raining but the precipitation is light we will proceed as scheduled because rain does not affect the cleaning (see next question). In the circumstance of heavy rain/ showers or high winds, we will re-schedule your appointment (usually within 2 or 3 clear days). All inside work may be completed as scheduled to avoid disrupting your busy calendar. If you have an appointment with inside cleaning services we will confirm by telephone the morning of service.

Does the rain make my windows dirty?
Rain does not make the windows dirty, dirt does. Dust accumulates on the outside of the glass from lawn mowers, leaf blowers, tree pollen, car exhaust and many other sources. This dust settles as a uniform layer on the glass. When it rains, the rain drops push the dust into different patterns and after the water dries the dust remains on the glass. This new “mud residue” is now highly visible because it is no longer uniformly spread but is sporadic throughout the pane. Clean glass will stay clean after a rain because once the rain water dries, there is nothing left behind to obscure the view.

We have shrubs and flowers around the house, will they be affected/harmed by the cleaning solution you use?
We use reverse osmosis de-ionization process that purifies the normal tap water and turns it into pure water for window cleaning. The pure water does not harm/affect the shrubs or flower. To clean the siding we use normal tap water and this too does not affect the flowers, in fact, it waters the plants as we wash. As our technicians are working around your home, they take the utmost care not to walk on the flowers, drag the water hoses or cleaning equipment on the shrubs and flowers.
