Our window cleaning process starts with a site assessment. We walk the property, count the panes, assess the accessibility, and identify any problem areas. For downtown square properties, we inspect the older glass for existing scratches and damage. For US-75 corridor properties, we note the road spray. For US-380 properties, we assess the newer glass. For SH-5 properties, we assess the older glass and the aging conditions. We then provide a quote based on the scope of work.
On the day of service, our crew arrives with the equipment needed for your building. For ground-floor windows, we use traditional squeegee methods. For upper-floor windows, we use water-fed pole systems with deionized water. Most McKinney buildings are low-rise to mid-rise, so squeegee and pole methods handle most properties.
For the historic downtown properties, we inspect each pane for existing scratches before cleaning. We use professional-grade squeegees and strip washers with gentle pressure, and we are careful with the detailing on older frames. The older glass requires a lighter touch than modern glass, and we adjust our technique accordingly. The pedestrian traffic means the street-level glass gets smudged, and we pay extra attention to removing fingerprints and smudges.
For US-75 corridor properties with road spray, we use a pre-treatment solution that loosens the road film before the standard cleaning. The pre-treatment makes the squeegee cleaning more effective and produces a streak-free result.
For US-380 properties, the newer glass responds well to the water-fed pole system with deionized water. The deionized water scrubs the glass and rinses spot-free, making it ideal for the modern glass on newer commercial buildings. We pay attention to the quality because the newer development has higher aesthetic standards.
For SH-5 properties, the older glass requires the same careful approach as the downtown properties. We inspect for existing scratches and use gentle pressure with professional-grade tools.
After cleaning, we do a quality check with the property manager. For downtown properties, the quality check ensures the historic glass has been cleaned without damage. For US-380 properties, the quality check ensures the newer glass is streak-free.
