Window Cleaning in New Hamburg

Cool air near water often leaves dew or frost on glass in the morning. In New Hamburg, where the Nith winds through the downtown core, a pane can be beaded or iced at the hour most people book. Glass cannot be finished properly while it is wet, so we time the visit for when it has cleared. In winter we plan for mild days, because water freezes on cold glass and streaks as it goes.

The downtown is a Heritage Conservation District, and older houses near it may still carry wood sashes, storm windows and painted sills. Wood swells when it is soaked and old paint lifts, so we keep water on the glass and off the frame. We never force a stuck sash. If your storm windows come off in spring and go back on in fall, ask for both layers to be listed in the quote. Four glass faces per opening take longer than two.

Big trees can drip sap, and in summer a sticky honeydew left by aphids. Those spots smear when wiped dry, so we soften them first, then lift them. Window cleaning starts from $125. The free written quote counts every window, storm sashes included, before we begin.

What we plan for in New Hamburg

• Start time: on cool mornings we wait for dew or frost to clear, so glass is not finished while it is still wet.
• Frames and sills: water stays on the glass and off old wood, and we tell you if a sill looks soft or paint is lifting.
• Storm windows: we ask which layers come off, and list inner and outer panes as separate lines in the quote.
• Sticky spots: sap and honeydew under big trees are softened first, then lifted, not rubbed across the pane.
• Winter visits: we plan them for mild days and move the date if the forecast falls below freezing.
