New construction glass is on a clock that most people do not know is running. Stucco splatter, concrete dust, and mortar runoff are alkaline, and left on glass through a season of sun they etch it permanently. This is not standard window cleaning and it should not be priced like it, because the risk of scratching brand new glass is real and the technique is different.
What this means in Peyton specifically
Local housing stock
Rural acreage properties, frequently with detached shops and outbuildings that have their own glass. Exterior work here usually covers more than the house.
What the windows are like here
A wide mix, from older farmhouse double-hung sashes to modern builder vinyl on newer acreage builds.
Dust and wind exposure
The most exposed location we serve. Unpaved county roads and open agricultural land mean constant airborne grit, and screens load faster here than anywhere else.
Peyton sits at approximately 6,969 feet.

How we do it
- 1
Identify the glass
Tempered glass has surface characteristics that make aggressive scraping risky, and it is common in doors, low openings, and near tubs. We check before any blade touches a pane.
- 2
Soften before scraping
Residue is chemically softened first. Dry scraping construction debris across glass is the fastest way to put permanent scratches in a brand new window.
- 3
Controlled scrape
Where scraping is needed it is done wet, in one direction, with a fresh blade. Blades get changed constantly because a chipped blade is what causes the scratch.

Post-Construction questions from Peyton
How soon after construction should this happen?
As soon as the trades are finished, within weeks rather than months. Alkaline residue etches glass with sun and time, and once etched it is a glass replacement rather than a cleaning.
Can you get stucco splatter off without scratching?
In the large majority of cases, yes, using chemical softening and wet scraping. Splatter that has been baked on through a full summer sometimes leaves marks in the glass surface, and we will tell you if we find that during the test area.
Why does this cost more than regular cleaning?
It is several times the labor per pane and it carries real risk of damaging new glass. Anyone quoting standard rates for post-construction work is either not doing it properly or has not seen the windows.
