Salt on the seafront
Homes along the seafront and up the cliffs get a dull salty film on the glass from sea spray and wind. It doesn't rinse off in the rain the way dust does. Purified water and a soft brush lift it, and because pure water dries without spots, the glass stays clear for longer. The same goes for frames and balcony glass.
Flats and lets
Southend has a lot of converted flats and rented homes. For tenants and agents, our end-of-tenancy clean does the inside glass, frames, sills and tracks, booked around the check-out date. Upper-floor flats can usually be reached from the street or garden with a water-fed pole.
Bay windows and conservatories
The Edwardian streets of Westcliff and Leigh have deep bays and large rear conservatories. Leigh's narrow, steep roads can make parking and access tricky, so a note on the form about where we can park helps.
Solar panels on the seafront
Salt doesn't only land on windows. Panels on homes near the front and up on the cliffs pick up the same film, plus gull droppings. On shallow roofs neither rinses off well. Our solar panel clean uses pure water, and our guide on cleaning salt off windows by the sea explains why.
Paint and stains after a refurb
With so many older houses being converted and refurbished, paint splashes and mortar spots on glass come up often in Southend. Our paint-splash removal starts with a test patch, and we don't use blades on toughened glass.
