Why is it important to clean windows ?
Beyond the obvious reasons of cleaning windows, creating a clearer view and improving heat profeciency, the most important reason for glass maintenance is to avoid glass degradation. Glass will over time become permeated with a variety of contaminants, such as:
-
Acid rain
-
Sea spray
-
Hard minerals
(caused by sprinkler systems and building run-off)
-
Oxidization (caused by windows encased in metal frames & screens)
-
Over spray (caused by paint, chalking, mortar and more)
in most cases item #1, hard mineral or hard water
is the biggest threat to most home and business
owners and a great source of extra income for
professional window cleaners. the need for basic
glass restoration can be avoided with regular
cleaning to exterior window glass surfaces.

types of windows:

POWER WASHING
The exterior surfaces of your home are constantly exposed to harmful elements, both natural and man-made. Natural elements such as: ultraviolet light rays, wind, rain, dirt, and grime physically attack surfaces causing them to degrade, discolor and oxidize also known as "chalk" over time. Other natural factors including: mold, mildew, birds, insects, spiders, tree sap and “shot-gun” spores can add to these effects. Man-made elements such as industrial pollution, automotive exhaust, acid rain, chimney soot, and even smoke from your BBQ can cause significant damage if left untreated. These nuisances and toxins take a toll on your structural surfaces over time and can cause significant damage if these residues are not removed pieriodically. Potentially, destroying the beauty and reducing the market value of your property dramatically.
Therefore, we recommend professional power washing
no less once a year for the following types of surfaces:
-
Exterior Siding
-
Patio

Deck
-
Fence
-
Pool
-
Roofing
