window cleaning after soft wash in Palmetto

In Palmetto, this comes up on older in-town houses and the newer edges toward the county line. Railroad-town concrete is stained in layers. New pads pick up clay fast. Irrigation that hits the front windows leaves mineral spots no soft wash will erase.

Drafts, gutters, and a front that faces a busy road.

Sodium hypochlorite that dries on glass can leave a haze or a spot. The prevention is simple: do not let it dry there, and rinse. A soft wash includes keeping the glass wet and rinsed. It does not include a detail of every pane, the screens, and the tracks. That is window cleaning, and it is a better result on a separate pass once the wall is done.

Screens are easy to bow and easy to stain. We do not pressure them out of the frame. If a screen is already loose, say so. Taking every screen down is something we can plan. It is not a surprise mid-job.

Mineral etch from sprinklers looks like dirt and behaves like damage. You can feel it with a fingernail. We will tell you if that is what we are seeing, because charging you to “clean” it would be a false promise.
