Window Cleaning Services in Birmingham, AL
The best way to determine if a window is truly clean is in direct sunlight. When cleaning your windows our crews do their best to remove dirt and leave them streak free. However if you see something we missed in afternoon sun that you didn’t see at the time of service, just give us a call and we will CHEERFULLY return to do any touch-ups if needed!
Window Cleaning
No spray bottles and paper towels here! Our trained professionals will clear dirt, cobwebs and debris from your windows and frames with a soft bristle brush before using a professional scrubber with our proven solutions to wash every pane. We will remove minor bug deposits, sap or paint drips with proper razor techniques or solvents. We squeegee and hand dry windows with lint-free, Huck Towels to give you a sparkling, streak free appearance. When washing inside surfaces the windows will be lifted to clean the sills beneath. Note that heavily soiled windows may require detailing.
Window Detailing
For windows that require extra work, we have the training to handle your needs. From long neglected windows to new construction issues such as paint overspray, drywall or concrete deposits, our crews know how to remove these without damaging your glass surfaces. Detailing involves additional time and materials and therefore an additional charge.
Window Corrosion
Glass may suffer corrosion from acid rain, constant exposure from sprinkler systems or other building runoff issues. Stage One Corrosion (Hardwater Stains), giving a cloudy, scaly or rainbow-effect appearance may be treated and removed by a variety of polishes, cleansers or acids for an additional charge. Stage Two Corrosion that has been untreated cannot be removed. Also dual pane windows with broken sills and a cloudy appearance cannot be cleaned because the problem is between the panes and can only be handled by glass replacement.
Window Repair/Installation
Cracked or damaged frames, broken panes and minor problems that can be mended are handled by our professionals to restore windows and save owners money. If your needs would be better served by a new installation rather than repair, our crews will advise you as well.
Skylight Cleaning
Oddly enough the windows designed to let the most sunlight into your home or business are often the dirtiest. Because these windows are harder to access and due to their slanted (rather than vertical) installation they often retain water and stain easier. Our experienced crews know how to access these difficult windows and are trained to break down the extra deposits they often retain so that you can enjoy the abundant sun they are designed to capture.
Window Screen Cleaning
Window screens promote fresh air and keep out dust, dirt and insects. Since they are natural “strainers” it’s obvious that they will need periodic cleaning. It makes little sense to clean window glass and then cover it up with a nasty screen! Our crews know the best screen cleaning methods and will be happy to remove and reinstall them as well.
Window Screen Repair
Over time, window screens can become discolored, sun-bleached or snagged with a little help from our “Four Footed Friends” and may require re-screening. If the frames are in good order it’s a simple process of removing the old screen and installing new screen material. This can be done with a light weight fiberglass product or a heavier aluminum material that is more durable. If screen frames are bent or broken we can have a new made-to-fit frame and screen fabricated.
Screened Porches
Who doesn’t enjoy a rocking chair, glider or hammock on a screened porch with a light breeze passing through? We can help make that happen if you need new screening installed or if your old screens have seen better years. We can use the long time method of screen rolling with tack strips or we can fabricate and install custom screened frames for each opening. Free estimates always!
Storm Windows? Sorry…
Regrettably WE NO LONGER OFFER STORM WINDOW CLEANING after 13 years of doing so. We provided this service as long as we did because so many window cleaning companies would not even touch them. These old style windows, although energy efficient are very difficult to deal with. Because most of them have been in place for so long, frames are often in disrepair and getting them in & out of tight spaces on “settled” homes often results in glass breakage (4 on our last project!). Charging for the time it actually takes to deal with these windows would not be good value for our customers so we have now RETIRED that service.
