Spring: clear the winter and pollen

Spring is the busiest season for exterior cleaning, and for good reason. Winter rains leave grime and water spots, and spring brings heavy pollen across Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley.

A spring clean resets windows, siding, and surfaces, and it is a good time to soft wash algae that grew over the damp winter months.

Summer: solar panels and marine layer film

By summer the marine layer and June gloom have left a film on the glass, and long dry spells let dust settle on solar panels and cut their output.

Summer is the ideal time to clean solar panels so they produce at full strength through the high demand months, and to freshen windows dulled by the gloom.

Fall: prepare for holidays and rains

Fall is the time to get the home ready for two things: the holidays and the winter rains.

  • Clean windows before holiday gatherings and photos
  • Clear gutters after the leaves drop and before the first rains
  • Wash away summer dust from driveways and patios
  • Book Christmas light installation before the December rush

Winter: gutters and storm ready surfaces

Winter in Los Angeles is mild, so cleaning continues, but the focus shifts to keeping water moving. A mid winter gutter check after a storm keeps debris from clogging downspouts during the next one.

Because our climate rarely freezes, we clean year round and can advise the right timing for each part of your home.
