Exterior-only is the most underrated service we offer, because the outside takes all the weather and the inside usually does not need the same frequency. Alternating a full interior-and-exterior clean with an exterior-only visit keeps the glass ahead of the damage at roughly two thirds the annual cost.

What this means in Security-Widefield specifically

Dust and wind exposure

Regular hail and strong downslope wind drive grit into screens and tracks. Screen mesh on homes this age is frequently too brittle to remove safely.

Irrigation and hard water here

Much of the area draws on the Widefield aquifer rather than the Colorado Springs supply, and it is harder. Combined with 1960s to 1980s irrigation layouts where a high proportion of homes have at least one head hitting a window, etched ground-floor glass is common enough here that we test before quoting restoration rather than after.

Elevation and sun exposure

Around 5,600 feet, similar exposure to Fountain, with strong downslope winds off the front range.

Tree cover and organic staining

Mature cover in the established Security and Stratmoor neighborhoods produces heavy leaf litter in window wells and tracks.

Security-Widefield sits at approximately 5,600 feet.

How we do it

1
Quote without an appointment
Because we never enter the house, we can quote and schedule exterior work without coordinating your calendar.
2
Water-fed pole on upper stories
Deionized water through a pole system reaches most second and third story glass from the ground, which is safer for our crew and easier on your gutters and landscaping.
3
Traditional work at ground level
Ground-floor glass is scrubbed and squeegeed by hand, which is faster and gives a better result where reach is not an issue.
4
Ground-level check
A final pass from a distance in daylight, which is the only way to actually see what was missed.

What it costs

Exterior-only typically runs 40 to 60 percent of a full interior and exterior service on the same house.

Exterior Only questions from Security-Widefield

Why does purified water dry without spots?

Ordinary tap water carries dissolved minerals. When it evaporates the water leaves and the minerals stay, which is the spotting. Deionized water has those minerals stripped out, so there is nothing left behind when it dries. It also means we do not have to squeegee glass we cannot safely reach.

Do you use chemicals on the windows?

Not on exterior glass. The deionized system cleans with water purity alone, so there is no detergent to run off into your landscaping or leave a film that attracts dust. It matters more than it sounds in Denver metro, where the municipal supply runs around 8.5 grains per gallon — cleaning with tap water there deposits fresh minerals every visit.

Can you do exterior only in winter?

Down to roughly freezing, yes. Below that, water freezes on the glass before it can be cleared and the result is worse than leaving it. We schedule around cold snaps rather than fighting them.

Is exterior-only worth it on its own?

Usually yes. The outside collects nearly all of the weather, dust, and irrigation damage. Interiors get dirty far more slowly in most homes.
