At Central Texas Window Cleaning, we get it—when it comes to cleaning your windows, gutters, roof, or siding, you’ve got questions. And with the dust, pollen, storms, and Texas heat, you’re not alone!
Here are the top 5 questions we hear from homeowners just like you—and our honest, expert answers.
#1 How Often Should I Get My Windows, Gutters, or Roof Cleaned in Central Texas?
Short answer:
- Windows: Every 3–6 months (especially with hard water and dust storms).
- Gutters: At least twice a year—especially after oak season and fall leaves.
- Roof & House Wash: Once a year or after visible algae, mold, or pollen buildup.
Why?
Central Texas is notorious for oak pollen, dust, and sudden storms. Regular cleaning prevents permanent stains, pest nests, and costly water damage.
#2 Will Pressure Washing Damage My Siding or Roof?
Short answer:
It can—if done incorrectly.
That’s why we use the right method for each surface:
✅ We pressure wash:
- Concrete driveways
- Sidewalks
- Patios
- Decks (when safe and appropriate)
✅ We soft wash:
- Siding
- Roofs
- Delicate surfaces that could be damaged by high pressure
👉 No guesswork. Just the right method for every surface of your home.
#3 Is It Safe to Clean Gutters or Roofs During Oak Season or After a Storm?
Short answer:
Yes—and it’s often the best time.
Oak season drops massive amounts of pollen and debris (those pesky oak balls), while storms clog gutters and scatter leaves across your roof.
If you wait too long, water can back up and damage fascia boards or leak into your home. We recommend gutter cleaning immediately after heavy debris falls.
#4 Can You Remove Hard Water Stains or Mildew?
Yes, we can.
Hard water spots on windows are common here due to sprinkler systems and our local water composition. Mildew often shows up on shaded areas of siding or roof shingles.
We use special stain removers and mildew treatments designed for Central Texas grime—so your home doesn’t just look clean, it stays cleaner longer.
#5 Do I Need to Be Home for the Service? And How Long Does It Take?
For exterior cleaning, you don’t need to be home—as long as we have access to water and the exterior areas, we’ve got it covered. We’ll text before arrival and send before/after photos when we’re done.
Timing varies based on how dirty things are, but here’s a general idea:
- Exterior window cleaning: 1–2 hours
- Gutter cleaning: 1–2 hours
- Full house wash or roof wash: 2–4 hours depending on size and buildup
We respect your time and aim to make the entire experience hassle-free.
