Streak-free window and glass cleaning

Why streak-free glass is so hard on the coast

On the Costa Blanca, glass has it tough. The tap water is very hard and, as it dries, leaves a whitish lime haze. The sea breeze deposits salt that mixes with dust into a sticky film. And Saharan dust tops it off. The result is that cleaning with a cloth and supermarket glass spray almost always streaks and marks as it dries. We work with professional technique: an applicator to loosen the dirt and a squeegee to pull the water off in one motion, so it doesn’t sit there drying into streaks.

Windows, screens, enclosures and glass walls

We clean glass inside and out, frames and beading, glazed terrace enclosures, shower screens and large living-room glass walls. Shower screens with years of caked lime need a specific descaler and sometimes an anti-lime treatment afterwards so water runs off and they take longer to mark again. On enclosures and sliding windows we also clean the tracks and runners, where sand and dust gather and then dirty the glass every time you open it.

Fly screens, blinds and high windows

Fly screens hold a lot of dust and pollen and are best cleaned at the same time as the glass; we take them out where possible, wash them and refit them. Exterior blinds and their housings collect the area’s sand. For high windows, skylights or double-height glass walls we use a telescopic pole with a professional head and safe access, so you don’t need to climb any ladder.

When and how often

For a lived-in home, a thorough window clean every 2-3 months keeps the glass clear. On the seafront, where salt attacks harder, more often is better. It’s a popular service before hosting guests, before photos for a rental listing, or as a one-off complement to regular cleaning. We give a fixed price by the number and accessibility of windows and everything carries a 30-day guarantee.
