Questions, answered straight
The things people actually ask before they book. If yours is not here, text us.
General questions
01How do I get a quote?
Use the quote form on this site, or text (440) 865-8993. We set a time, come out, look at the property in person and give you an exact price on the spot. Nothing to sign, no pressure, no obligation. Often we can do the work on that same visit.
02How much does it cost?
It depends on the size of the house, the number of windows, the condition and what you are bundling. We price every home in person, so the number you get is exact, and the quote is free.
03Do I need to be home?
No. Exterior work does not need you there. We need access to an outside spigot and the gates unlocked, and we will text you when we are done. Interior work obviously needs someone to let us in.
04Do you take a deposit?
No. You pay when the job is done and you have looked at it. Card, cash, check or Venmo.
05Are you insured?
Yes, $1 million in general liability coverage. We will send a certificate of insurance to you or your HOA or property manager on request.
06What is the No Spots Promise?
If you find spots or streaks within 48 hours of the job, text us and we come back and redo it free. Free, every time.
07What if it rains?
Rain runs off clean glass. If your windows genuinely look worse within 48 hours, the No Spots Promise covers it. If rain is forecast for the day of your job we will call you and move it rather than work in it.
08How far out are you booking?
Same week in most cases. Spring and fall are the busy seasons and can run two weeks out. Ask when you reach out and we will tell you the truth about the calendar.
09What areas do you serve?
Cleveland's west side: Rocky River, Westlake, Bay Village, Fairview Park, North Olmsted, Olmsted Falls, Lakewood, Cleveland, Berea, Strongsville, Avon, Avon Lake and North Ridgeville. If you are just outside that, text us and ask. We travel for larger jobs.
10Who owns Purified Wash?
Stephen Cain, who has always lived on Cleveland's west side, founded Purified Wash in Rocky River and still runs it. It is locally owned and independent.
11Is Purified Wash environmentally friendly?
Where it can be, and we are straight about where it cannot. Windows are cleaned with purified water and no soap at all. Siding and roofs need a cleaning solution to kill algae, so we apply it at low pressure, soak your plants before and rinse them after, and never blast a house. Gutter debris is bagged and hauled away. And part of every year's proceeds goes to Charity Water for clean water projects.
12What is the fastest way to get a quote?
Text (440) 865-8993 with your address, or use the quote form, which takes about a minute. We text back to set a time, come out and quote it in person, and a lot of the time we can do the work right then, so you are not waiting on a second visit.
13Can you do the work the same day you quote it?
Often, yes. If the job fits the day and you are happy with the price, we can usually start as soon as you say yes. That saves you a second appointment and gets it done sooner. Bigger jobs are booked for the next opening, usually the same week.
14Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Storefronts, offices, restaurants, medical suites and small apartment buildings, on a weekly, monthly or quarterly schedule and outside your business hours if you need it.
15Who actually shows up?
A trained Purified Wash crew, and you will know we are coming. When you text or book online, a person here answers and prices the job, so there is no call center between you and a real answer. Whoever is on your property is trained on our methods, and every job is backed by the same guarantee.
16Do you use chemicals on my house?
Window cleaning uses purified water and nothing else. Soft washing siding and roofs uses a cleaning solution, because algae has to be killed rather than rinsed, and the landscaping gets soaked before and rinsed after so runoff is heavily diluted.
