Window cleaning in The Grove at Falconhead Under the trees, crystal clear.

What The Grove homes are like

Where much of Falconhead is open to the fairways, The Grove is known for its trees. Mature canopy shades the streets and yards, and homes in this small section are generally in the $700,000 to $1.2 million range. It falls under the Falconhead HOA, is not gated, and has the same Hill Country look as the rest of the community, with stucco and limestone on most fronts.

Shade is lovely in July and a headache for a window cleaner. Branches overhang roofs, drop leaves into gutters and shed small debris onto sills. Because the section is small, many neighbors tend to schedule in the same stretch of weeks, and we pick that up as part of our route.

What The Grove windows deal with

Trees mean webs. Spiders string the corners of frames, the underside of eaves and the gap between screens and glass. Leaf litter and sap bits collect in tracks and on the screen mesh, which blocks light and makes rooms darker than they should be. Oak pollen in March and April makes it worse, and cedar pollen from December to February adds another coat.

We clean the glass with pure water poles, then brush the frames, which takes the webs down at the same time. Screens are $5 each and tracks are $5, and both make a clear difference in a shaded yard. Moss and green film on north walls are handled with a soft wash, never pressure on limestone.

How we work The Grove

There is no gate to deal with, and we can park out front. We normally clean the exterior first, because webs and falling debris land on glass you just finished if the order is reversed. Then we do screens and tracks, and the interior last. For a home under heavy tree cover, the Triannual or Quarterly plan tends to be the practical choice, since debris returns quickly. Those plans take 15% off and include a free yearly screen cleaning.

Picture a 2,800 square foot house under heavy oaks. Exterior windows come to about $280, and on site that is roughly two to two and three quarter hours. Adding interior at $15 a window brings it to about $420.
