Window Cleaning
Our window cleaning service includes interior and exterior glass cleaning with screen removal/replacement. Crews use protective booties and ladder pads to maintain home cleanliness. Services accommodate single-story homes to multi-level properties with skylights and French doors, serving residential and commercial clients across Santa Cruz County.
Power Washing
Exterior power washing removes dirt and debris from houses, decks, and walkways. Our crews handle properties with special care for different roofing materials, using ladders when necessary to avoid walking on fragile surfaces. Service includes roof debris removal and downspout testing for complete water flow clearance.
Gutter Clearing
Professional gutter clearing involves roof debris removal, gutter scooping, and downspout testing. Our process ensures proper water drainage while protecting roofing materials. Crews address mold and debris accumulation in track frames, charging based on time required for thorough completion of each unique job.
Solar Panel Cleaning
Specialized solar panel cleaning improves energy efficiency through safe, wire-preserving techniques. Our crews follow manufacturer recommendations for annual maintenance, using methods that remove dirt buildup without equipment disconnection. This service extends panel lifespan while maintaining optimal energy production for residential and commercial installations.
Cobweb Removal
Comprehensive cobweb removal targets window perimeters and outdoor structures. Our service prevents pest infestations by eliminating spider webs from decks and plants. Crews address both aesthetic concerns and practical issues caused by webs obstructing natural light or damaging exterior surfaces.

Great service! Fast and very thorough. Very polite friendly and professional. Mindful of my floors and furniture while working inside the house. They did an amazing job inside and out on all windows, glass sliders and skylights! Will definitely have them back Services: Rooftop/skylight cleaning, Window washing

We have a 3,500 sq.ft home, 2 story, our windows were very dirty. They cleaned the window sills, screens, and even the dog door. They did an excellent job, were extremely professional and friendly! Would highly recommend!

Saw Joe's work on another job. He can his crew showed up on time and cleaned my windows (inside and out), my screens and the window tracks. I live in a three story townhome. The price was reasonable and his people were tidy. I will be recommending them to my neighbors and using his company again. I was not compensated or asked to write this review.

I had made an appt Friday 7/24 to have my dryer vent cleaned 7/29 but needed to change the date and time. When I called Monday at 8:10am as they have a 72 hr policy for cancellations, I asked for a Saturday appointment instead in pm, Joe who answered the phone call said they don't work that late they only have 7am and 9 am appts and are you sure you want to schedule at 9? call us when you want to reschedule he was very rude and condescending attitude.
But I took the 9 am. When I hung up the phone it just didn't set with me his rude attitude. So I called back and told him I was cancelling the appt. He hung up on me. These services are unbelievable as to how they think they can treat a customer!
