Why do Avon Lake windows get dirty so fast?
Avon Lake homes deal with something most inland suburbs do not, and that is Lake Erie. Houses along Lake Road and near the shoreline take steady lake spray and wind-blown grit that leave a haze a bottle of cleaner never quite removes.
Even a few streets back, near Miller Road Park and Weiss Field, glass collects spring pollen and storm splatter through the year. Sprinklers add hard water spots in summer, so most windows here are overdue before anyone notices.
The north and lake-facing sides of a house usually look worst first, since they take the wind straight off the water. Screens on those sides trap grit and lake haze too, which dulls the view even after the glass is wiped.
How does purified water window cleaning work?
Tap water in Northeast Ohio is full of dissolved minerals. When it dries on glass, it leaves behind the same spots and streaks you were trying to remove.
We clean with purified, deionized water that has those minerals filtered out, and we use no soap. The glass dries clear with no film left for dust to cling to, so it stays clean longer and looks good when the afternoon sun hits it.
A squeegee and spray bottle tend to leave a thin film behind, and on lake-facing glass that film catches grit faster. Rinsing with purified water leaves the glass bare, so the next storm has less to stick to.
What is included in window cleaning in Avon Lake, OH?
Our crews clean the outside glass from the ground with water fed poles that reach about 40 feet, so most homes need no ladders leaning on the gutters. That covers second story windows and higher.
We work carefully around landscaping and patio furniture, and the crew cleans up after itself before leaving.
Every window cleaning includes more than the pane:
- Exterior glass on every window
- Screens, cleaned and put back
- Frames and sills
- Tracks, where most of the grime actually sits
- Interior glass cleaned by hand, if you want the inside done too
How often should Avon Lake homes get windows cleaned?
Homes closest to the water see spray and grit build up all year, so their glass tends to haze over sooner. A spring cleaning clears pollen and a fall cleaning clears the spotting that builds up over summer.
Our Biannual and Triannual window cleaning plans take money off every visit, which makes a regular schedule easier to keep.
If you only clean once a year, late spring after the pollen settles is usually the best single visit, because it gives you clear glass for the sunniest months.
