- If we are only cleaning your outside windows, please make sure all windows and doors are shut tightly and locked up. We wouldn’t want to get any water inside your house!
- If we are only cleaning your outside windows, please discuss any exterior screens with our scheduler. Most outside screens need to be removed from inside, so we’ll have to co-ordianate with you on that.
- Please make sure your pets are inside during the service. We don’t offer pet bathing, so you’ll have to call someone else for that
- We will need access to a functional exterior water source.
- If you have any valuable items on your window sills or near your windows, it would be a good idea to move them to a safe place prior to our arrival.

Properly pitched gutters and leaders gather that water and channel it away from the home. Doing so prevents water penetration into the home and its foundation.
Because of how important a properly flowing gutter system is to your home, you must keep them clean, all year round. If you don’t, rainwater can seep into your home’s roof, siding, and even its foundation. Water damage to these parts of your home can result in costly repairs. Simply cleaning your gutters prevents these expensive projects and keeps water flowing away from your home.
No. For your convenience, you do not need to be home. On the day we arrive, please close your windows and doors. We’ll also need access to a outside water spigot.
Absolutely. Not only can we remove all paint-based graffiti, but we do it safely. In some instances, graffiti can be found near vegetation or other sensitive surfaces.
