Window Cleaning in South San Francisco, CA

South San Francisco still spells out The Industrial City in big white letters on Sign Hill, and these days it is at least as well known for biotech as for industry. Its houses are mostly on the hills to the west, and those hills catch a great deal of wind.

Afternoon wind pulls the marine layer in from the coast across the low ground around the city, and it brings grit, damp, and salt with it. Windows on the western and hillside elevations in South San Francisco get dirty on a shorter cycle than the same glass would further down the Peninsula, and screens in particular fill with fine dust. Screen cleaning is available on request anywhere we work, and here it is worth asking for, because clean screens make more difference to how a room looks than most people expect.

The housing stock is largely mid century. Buri Buri, Sunshine Gardens, Avalon Park, and Winston Manor are post war neighbourhoods of single family homes, and Westborough, higher up in the western hills, came later with views across toward the Bay. Many houses are two storey on sloping lots with the living rooms and the big windows on the upper floor. That is a good fit for a water fed pole, reaching second storey glass from the ground instead of from a ladder on a hillside driveway.

East of the freeway is the industrial and biotech side of the city. We quote commercial glass there when asked, but most of our South San Francisco work is homes.

Local questions

Asked in South San Francisco

General questions about pricing, scheduling, and how we work live on the FAQ page.

Why do our screens get so dusty?

Wind. South San Francisco gets strong afternoon wind most of the year, and screens catch the fine grit it carries. Screen cleaning is available with any window job, and here it is often the biggest visible difference.

Can you do our upstairs windows without a ladder?

In most cases, yes. Water fed poles reach second storey glass from the ground, which suits the two storey houses on sloping lots in Westborough and Buri Buri.
