Crystal Clear Views. A Brighter Home.
Window cleaning in Charleston, SC is a steady contest with salt haze, pollen and humidity. We wash glass inside and out, with screens, tracks and sills detailed by hand, so your views come back into focus.
Windows in the Lowcountry get dirty in ways inland homes rarely see. Sea breezes leave a hazy salt film on glass even miles from the beach. Spring pollen turns screens and sills yellow. Summer humidity condenses on air-conditioned panes and traps dust, and afternoon thunderstorms streak everything all over again.
Our residential window cleaning covers both sides of the glass. Crews wash and squeegee each pane, hand-detail edges and corners, wipe frames and sills, clean screens, and vacuum and wipe the tracks where sand and pollen collect. We clean single-story cottages and three-story raised homes alike, along with skylights, transoms and custom architectural glass.
Historic homes downtown and in the Old Village often have older, sometimes original glass that is thinner and wavier than modern panes, so we work carefully around glazing putty, wood sashes and painted muntins. Beachfront homes on Isle of Palms and Sullivan’s Island face the opposite challenge: broad modern panes coated by salt spray within weeks of a cleaning.
Window washing works best scheduled right after a house wash, so the glass isn’t spotted by rinse water, and we coordinate the two for you. We also look after homes throughout Mount Pleasant and on Daniel Island, where newer construction often means expansive windows and tall great-room glass.
A thorough window cleaning involves more than the glass itself. Here's what each visit can include.
Both sides of every pane are washed, squeegeed and hand-detailed at the edges. Interior cleaning is done with care for floors, window treatments and furnishings, and we move small items off the sills and return them when we're done.
Screens hold pollen, salt and dust that blow straight back onto clean glass. We remove, wash and reinstall screens, and we point out any torn mesh or bent frames we notice so you can decide whether to have them repaired.
Sliding door tracks and window tracks collect sand, pollen and insects that make them stiff and gritty. We vacuum, scrub and wipe tracks and sills so windows and doors slide smoothly and close properly again.
Raised beach houses, three-story homes and tall great-room windows require ladders and careful planning. Our licensed and insured crews clean upper-story glass safely, including transoms, clerestory windows and the glass above stairwells. We plan ladder placement around landscaping and decks.
Skylights, arched windows, custom architectural glass and older wavy panes are each handled with methods suited to their size, shape and fragility. We take particular care around historic glazing putty and painted wood sashes, and we'll flag any loose panes we find.
Most homes look their best with two to four cleanings a year. A recurring plan keeps your windows on schedule — after pollen season, in midsummer and after hurricane season — without your needing to remember to call.

At the estimate, we note the number and type of windows, screens and skylights, any hard-to-reach glass, and access inside the home.
Inside, furnishings near the windows are protected and small sill items moved. Outside, we take care around landscaping and porch furniture.
Glass, screens, tracks, sills and frames are cleaned in a consistent order, room by room and elevation by elevation, so nothing is missed.
We inspect each window in good light for streaks or missed spots, then walk through the results with you before we pack up.
Window cleaning brings a crew into your living room and bedrooms, so trust matters as much as technique. Our crews are prompt, courteous and careful, and they work for a locally owned company that has served Charleston families since 2008. More than 100 Google reviews reflect how they conduct themselves on the job.
We clean glass, screens, tracks and sills together, so each window works properly and looks right — not just the pane in the middle.
Salt film and pollen behave differently from ordinary dust. Our approach lifts the haze rather than smearing it across the glass.
When your house is also due for a wash, we schedule the windows to follow it, so the glass isn't spotted by rinse water.
Two to four times a year suits most homes. Oceanfront and marsh-front homes collect salt haze quickly and often benefit from quarterly cleaning, while homes farther inland may be fine with twice a year. Good times to schedule are after spring pollen season and after hurricane season, when storms have left glass streaked and screens dusty.
Yes. We offer exterior-only, interior-only or full inside-and-out cleaning. Most homeowners choose both sides, because a pane that's clean on only one side still looks hazy. Interior cleaning requires someone to let us in, and we'll ask you to point out any fragile window treatments or valuables near the glass.
Screens, tracks and sills can be included in your cleaning, and we recommend them. Dirty screens shed pollen and dust onto freshly cleaned glass, and gritty tracks wear out the rollers on sliding doors. Your written estimate will list exactly what's included, so you know what to expect before we arrive.
Yes. Many homes on Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island and Daniel Island are raised or have three stories with tall great-room windows. Our crews are trained to clean upper-story glass safely, and we're licensed and insured. We'll assess access during the estimate, including decks and balconies we can work from.
On coastal homes, the haze is usually a combination of salt residue carried on the wind, pollen and airborne grime that sticks to it in humid weather. Sprinkler overspray can also leave mineral spots on lower windows. Regular cleaning removes salt film before it builds up, while mineral spotting left for a long time can be harder to remove fully.
Yes. Older homes in downtown Charleston and the Old Village often have original wavy glass, wood sashes and glazing putty that need a gentle approach. We avoid aggressive tools on older panes, take care around painted muntins, and let you know if we see loose glass or failing putty that should be addressed.
After. Washing the siding and roof sends rinse water across the windows, which leaves spots as it dries. If you're scheduling both, we'll plan the window cleaning to follow the house wash so the glass stays clear. It's one of the practical advantages of using a single company for your exterior care.
