What Hidden Valley homes are like

Hidden Valley is a small lakefront pocket in the 78732 area of Lake Austin, usually named alongside River Bend and River Dance. Homes are priced at $1M and up. It is not gated, and we do not have details on a master association. Waterfront homes in this part of Austin range widely, from older cottages and ranch style houses to rebuilt modern homes with large glass walls facing the lake. Lots are usually more private than the planned sections nearby, with trees and some slope toward the water.

Since homes here vary so much, we look at each house before we give a firm quote.

What Hidden Valley windows deal with

Lake air affects glass in a few ways. Spray and humidity leave mineral spots on lower and deck level windows, and these bond to the glass and can etch it over time. Trees around waterfront homes drop leaves and pollen, with cedar in winter and live oak in spring. Webs, insects and bird marks collect on frames and eaves, especially around outdoor lights. Water facing glass catches low sun and reflected light, so streaks and film are obvious. Pure water leaves nothing behind, which is why it suits this kind of glass.

Hard water spot removal is $10 per pane for spots that ordinary cleaning leaves.

How we work Hidden Valley

For waterfront and sloped lots, the first thing we consider is safe footing. Water fed poles reach up to three stories from the ground, so we do not set ladders on slopes or near the shoreline. Our pure water system, a dual RO unit with four stages and a DI resin tank, dries glass with no spots or soap film. Inside windows are cleaned by hand. We keep to the driveway, protect the landscaping, and tell you before we start if any glass looks etched. We often combine Hidden Valley with River Bend and Lakeland Park, with a typical lead time within two weeks.

For a 4,000 sq ft home, exterior windows are about $400 at $0.10 per sq ft. Plan on three to four hours outside and roughly two hours inside. The minimum job is $200.
