Window cleaning at Polo Fields, Cumming

Polo Fields was one of the earlier golf communities in this part of Forsyth County, and the homes and the landscaping have matured together. Big hardwoods shade the streets, the lots are wooded, and the houses themselves have been lived in and loved for a couple of decades. All of that is charming, and all of it is hard on windows. Shade keeps glass from drying, so organic film gets a head start on the north and east elevations. Leaf litter finds every track and sill. Pollen from a dense north Atlanta canopy coats the glass each spring and turns to grime with the first rain. We work with those conditions instead of against them. Exterior panes get washed and squeegeed clear, interiors get cleaned to the corners, and the frames and sills get wiped so the whole window looks cared for rather than just the middle of the glass. Because these are established homes rather than new construction, we slow down and pay attention to the condition of each window as we go, which is exactly what an older, mature neighborhood deserves. The payoff is glass that finally matches how nice the rest of the property looks.

Many Polo Fields homes still have their original windows, which were quality units when they were installed but are now twenty to thirty years old. Wood and wood-clad double-hung windows from that era need a lighter touch than the vinyl builder windows in a new subdivision. We do not force a painted-over or swollen sash, we use gentle solutions on older glazing putty and seals, and we take care around any hardware that has loosened over time. Cleaning also gives us a good look at the condition of the glass, and if we find an insulated pane that has fogged between the layers, we tell you plainly. That haze is a failed seal inside the glass unit, and no amount of washing will clear it, so we would rather you know than pay us to chase something cleaning cannot fix. That kind of straight talk is why a lot of Polo Fields owners have stayed with us. We clean what we can make clear and we are honest about what we cannot.

We price by the window so an older, larger Polo Fields home pays for exactly what it has. Standard exterior panes are $10, French-pane glass is $12, and interior cleaning is $8 per window. Screens are $5 each, track-and-sill detailing is $3 per window, and the visit minimum is $175. Screen repair is $49 per screen and skylights are $35 each. Recurring plans reward the homes that need the most attention: quarterly takes 5 percent off, bi-monthly 10 percent, and monthly 15 percent, which suits the shaded, wooded lots that fill their tracks and grow film fastest. Polo Golf and Country Club sits in south Forsyth near the McGinnis Ferry and Union Hill corridor, an easy reach for our crew, which runs this stretch of the north Atlanta suburbs several days a week. Same-day service is realistic when you call before noon and we have room. We have cleaned hundreds of homes across Forsyth County and the greater Atlanta area since 2009, so call (470) 333-2525 and we will get your windows on the schedule.
