That was a fast summer and just about all the kids are back in school.  The neighborhoods are quiet during the day, the light has changed and as the weather cools the colors warm.  So beautiful.  And naturally it is a great time to get the windows cleaned.  The next couple of months will be filled with beautiful days where we will want our windows open wide to let the autumn breezes flow through our homes and offices.   With open windows it is a pity to have them dirty as we enjoy the feeling of the outdoors coming in.   Finally the hot temps are leaving us, so as we turn off our swamp coolers and air conditioning our dirty screens and windows will look amazing after a thorough cleaning. 

We look forward to hearing from you during this beautiful autumn season.

The 4th of July is definitely one of my favorite holidays.  Homemade icecream, illegal fireworks in the street (just kidding) and great company.  Not to mention, my house gets an overhaul before a party.  I have come to realize that it takes a party or my mother in law coming to visit that gets the house super duper beautiful - baseboards, windows and all the stuff in between.  We are booked out about 2.5 weeks, so think ahead to get your windows cleaned before the 4th.  Give us a call.

Spring in Colorado is upon us and that means gutters are overflowing and backing up under the shingles and causing all sorts of problems.  70 degrees one day, 2 feet of snow the following day, then 65 degrees after that is typical for spring here, but gutters full of autumn leaves are going to be useless.  We can clean your gutters out and make them function properly so you don’t have damage to your eaves and fascia.   You certainly don’t want your basement to flood because your window wells fill with water from overflowing gutters and flow right into your basement.  Maintenance is important, so give us a call before the wild weather leaves you with a big repair bill.

Why is spring such a natural time for major cleaning?  Historically speaking, the coming out of winter symbolizes a new beginning with sunshine, the growth of green things, and new births all around.  So it makes so much sense to begin with a clean home.   I think it is traditional in all cultures to have a spring cleaning.  With Easter coming and many families gathering together it is a wonderful time to have your windows cleaned.  Give us a call and we can see to it that your windows are bright for this upcoming holiday.

Maybe you have just had new windows installed or the exterior of your home refurbished with paint, stain or stucco.  Was there residual gunk left over on your windows after the work was completed?  This is so frustrating to us window cleaners because the only way to remove this gunk is with a razor.  But…every single glass manufacturer will tell you on their website and paperwork to “NEVER use a sharp blade or scraper to remove deposits or clean the glass.”  They also say to “Never allow metallic or hard objects, such as razor blades or scrapers to come in contact with the glass.”  Guess what, this will void the warranty.    But, homeowners because they don’t know this want to have the window cleaner scrape the glass.  Then when they have scratches on the glass afterwards, the window cleaner gets all the blame and gets to replace the windows.  Why would we take the risk?  Why would the homeowner take the risk?  Painters, stainers and stucco companies need to PROPERLY cover ALL of the windows.  And one must ask why do these glass companies GLUE stickers on their new windows and then have such a policy? 

Our policy is “We do not scrape windows”.   Sorry, we’d like to, but we just can’t!!!  We recommend contacting the company that put on the gunk and have them come remove it at their risk.

CALL before April 1st, 2010 to set up an appointment and you will receive 20% off of your window or gutter cleaning bill.  If you have both done the same day, we will give you 25% off your bill.  So…call for an estimate and at the end of the call when Dan gives you the price, tell him you would like the Blog Deal and he will give it to you.   Your appointment doesn’t need to be set before April 1st, but you must call before April 1st to set the appointment in order to get this awesome blog deal. 

We clean windows and gutters all year round.  In Colorado, where we are blessed with 4 seasons we do have some interesting weather to deal with occasionally.  So during the winter we ask for some flexiblilty.  High winds, frigid temperatures, pouring rain or snow are conditions in which we need to reschedule.  But, usually it is a very short time before the weather changes and we can get your windows and gutters cleaned.  Spring is almost here and the rains will expose all of the clogged gutters.  Give us a call and we can help you get started with your spring cleaning.

Is it really almost mid February?  Where did January go?  I am not complaining - the sooner spring comes the happier I am, but it is really shocking how fast time flies.  Today there is a new beautiful blanket of snow on everything outside.  If your windows are filthy, you’ll have to go out into the cold to see it, but it is quite lovely.  And if you look out and think there is a fog in the air you should definitely give us a call.  We only have a short couple months left of these beautiful sparkly snows before spring takes over and you wouldn’t want to miss the beauty of it all by having dirty windows.  The week will end bright and dry and we’ll be back to work, so give us a call.
