Window cleaning for historic homes in East Hill, Pensacola?
A question we often hear from homeowners in East Hill.
We've got one of the older historic homes in East Hill with the original wood-frame windows and lots of little divided panes. Do you clean those carefully or is it a no-go?

A few specifics on how we treat East Hill's older glass, because it deserves different handling than new construction. Pre-war glass is often thinner, slightly wavy (that's the charm), and sometimes single-pane in wood sashes — so we use softer brushes, controlled water, and never aggressive scraping that could scratch antique panes or dig into aged glazing putty. Painted-shut sashes and fragile muntins get worked around, not forced. Wood frames matter too: we control water so it isn't pooling on hundred-year-old sills, and we'll flag failing glazing or soft wood when we see it — catching that early is the difference between a putty repair and a sash rebuild. Storm windows, where East Hill homes have them, get cleaned on both faces so you're not looking through four dirty surfaces. None of this costs extra; it's just the right way to work on a historic home, and it's why owners of older houses around East Hill and North Hill tend to stick with us. We're licensed and insured, and the free demo window at your estimate lets you watch exactly how gentle the process is before you commit to anything. Call or text 850-378-3301.
