When the Wetglass! team arrives at your home, you might wonder what the window cleaning process looks like from start to finish. Knowing what to expect can ease any concerns and help you prepare for a smooth, efficient service. Whether you live in Durango, Pagosa Springs, Bayfield, Mancos, Cortez, or Telluride, this guide walks you through the entire window cleaning day, so you feel confident and ready.
Your Window Cleaning Day Timeline
1. Arrival
The team arrives on time, wearing uniforms. They start with a quick walkthrough of your property to understand the scope and any special requests. This first step helps set clear expectations and ensures no areas are missed.
2. Assessment
Next, the technicians inspect all windows and glass doors. They check for hard water spots, dirt buildup, and any screens that need attention. If you have specific concerns, like stubborn stains or delicate glass, this is the time to mention them.
3. Preparation
You don’t need to move indoor furniture or clear the room. Our team will move and then restore the few heavy items needed to access interior windows, thereby minimizing disruption inside your home. They take care to protect your property and landscaping during the cleaning.
4. Cleaning Process
Using pure water-fed poles and professional-grade tools, the team cleans both interior and exterior glass where safely accessible. This method removes dirt, dust, and grime without leaving streaks or residue. The pure water system is especially effective in Southern Colorado’s dry climate, where dust and pollen accumulate quickly.

Inside, our team will use traditional squeegees and applicators to clean interior windows, using ladders only where our trad-pole system can't reach.

5. Screen Cleaning & Inspection
Window screens collect dust, pollen, and debris common in Durango and nearby towns like Bayfield and Cortez. The team removes each screen, washes it thoroughly, and reinstalls it. If any screens show damage—such as torn mesh or bent frames—the technicians will note the issue and provide a repair or replacement quote.

6. Final Walkthrough & Cleanup
Before leaving, the team walks through the property with you to inspect the results. They ensure every window sparkles and that your property is cleaner than when they arrived. This final step confirms your satisfaction and addresses any last-minute questions.
Typical Duration
The entire process usually takes between 1.5 and 4 hours, depending on your home’s size and the number of windows.

What to Do Before We Arrive
Preparing your home can help the cleaning go smoothly and quickly. Here are some simple steps:
Park vehicles away from the work areas to give technicians easy access
Secure pets indoors to keep them safe and avoid distractions
Clear windowsills of plants, decorations, or clutter
Inform the team of any special concerns you have
These small actions help the team focus on delivering the best results without interruptions.
Screen Cleaning and Repairs
Screen cleaning is included at no extra charge. Washing screens improves airflow and enhances your view by removing the fine dust and pollen that settle on them. Colorado’s weather can wear down screens over time, causing tears or bent frames. If the team finds damaged screens, they can repair or replace them during the visit or schedule a follow-up appointment.
This service benefits homes in Durango and surrounding areas like Pagosa Springs and Telluride, where seasonal weather changes affect window conditions.

Knowing what to expect on window cleaning day helps you prepare and feel confident about the process. From arrival to final walkthrough, the Wetglass! team works efficiently and respectfully to leave your windows sparkling and your property tidy. Whether you live in Durango, Pagosa Springs, Bayfield, Mancos, Cortez, or Telluride, professional window cleaning can brighten your home and improve your view.
