Window Cleaning Maintenance Schedule
Keep your views clear and protect glass from hard water damage with professional cleaning twice a year.
Twice a Year (Spring & Fall)
Homes near trees or with irrigation overspray may need quarterly cleaning. Interior windows typically need cleaning once per year.
Why Routine Maintenance Matters
Clean windows do more than improve your view-they protect your glass from permanent damage. Colorado's hard water, intense UV, and seasonal debris all take a toll on window glass over time. Mineral deposits from irrigation overspray can etch glass, while pollen and dust create a film that reduces natural light and makes your home feel darker. Professional window cleaning removes these contaminants before they cause permanent damage. The combination of purified water systems and professional-grade squeegee techniques ensures spot-free, streak-free results that last far longer than DIY methods. Twice-yearly cleaning-once in spring to remove winter grime and once in fall to clear pollen residue-keeps your windows in optimal condition year-round.
When to Schedule
Spring
Mar – May
Remove winter grime, road dust, and early pollen. Clean screens and tracks.
Summer
Jun – Aug
Monitor for hard water spots from irrigation. Spot clean as needed.
Fall
Sep – Nov
Critical cleaning window-removes summer dust, pollen residue, and hard water deposits before winter.
Winter
Dec – Feb
Interior cleaning only. Avoid exterior work in freezing temperatures.
Colorado's Climate Impact
Colorado's hard water is the biggest threat to your windows. Minerals in irrigation water and overspray from sprinklers can etch glass if left untreated. Once etching occurs, the damage is permanent and requires glass replacement. Spring pollen and cottonwood debris create a sticky film that attracts and holds moisture against glass. Summer dust combines with afternoon thunderstorms to create acidic runoff that degrades window coatings. Fall cleaning is critical because winter moisture traps contaminants against glass for months, leading to permanent staining. Colorado's 300+ days of sunshine also means intense UV exposure that degrades window seals and coatings faster than in milder climates.
Is Your Window Cleaning Due?
Adjust your irrigation heads to avoid spraying windows and exterior walls. Hard water deposits from sprinklers are the #1 cause of permanent glass etching in Colorado homes. A simple sprinkler adjustment can save thousands in window replacement costs.
