Salt off the River Crouch
Burnham is one of the best-known sailing towns on the east coast, and its Quay and seafront face straight onto the River Crouch. Spray and wind leave a salty film on glass, frames and balcony rails that rain doesn't shift. Purified water dissolves it and dries without spots, so the glass stays clear for longer.
Older fronts and sash windows
The High Street, with its clock tower, and the streets down to the Quay have a lot of older buildings: Georgian and Victorian fronts, sash windows and painted timber. Old glass and old paint need care. We clean by hand or with a soft brush and pure water, we don't use scraper blades on older glass, and we don't use a pressure washer anywhere near painted timber.
Weatherboarded cottages
Burnham has the white weatherboarded cottages typical of the Essex coast. Each board is a ledge for green algae and salt, and it shows first on the side facing the river. A frames, sills and fascia deep clean washes the boards, frames and fascias gently by hand.
Second homes and lets
With so many sailing families, second homes and holiday lets in the town, a lot of properties need glass done between stays or before a season starts. Our moving and changeover clean covers inside glass, frames, sills and tracks, usually from a key safe, so the owner doesn't need to be there.
A long drive from anywhere
Burnham sits at the end of the Dengie peninsula. It's well within our patch, but it helps to group jobs, so if you've got a neighbour who wants the same work, tell us and we'll book you on the same day.
