About Our Services in Barrington
Barrington work looks different from anywhere else we go, and it is mostly about scale and surfaces.
Properties out here sit on acreage, often heavily wooded, frequently with long approaches and outbuildings. A window cleaning here is not twenty windows, it is sixty or eighty across a main house, a coach house and a barn, and it takes planning rather than a quick stop. We quote these on site rather than by phone because the number of openings and the access are what actually determine the job.
Cedar shake is the surface that matters most. A lot of Barrington and Barrington Hills roofs and siding are cedar, and cedar is the single easiest exterior material to destroy with a pressure washer. High pressure furs the grain, blasts out the soft summer wood and leaves the shake worse off than the moss did. We soft wash cedar at low pressure with a solution appropriate to wood, which cleans it without opening the fibers.
The other Barrington specific issue is well water. Many properties out here are on private wells, and that water is hard enough that irrigation spray leaves visible mineral deposits on the lower glass. We remove it, and we will tell you if a head needs to be redirected so it does not come back.

Barrington Exterior Cleaning FAQs
Do you clean cedar shake roofs and siding?
Yes, by soft washing. Cedar cannot take pressure washing. High pressure raises the grain and erodes the soft wood between the growth rings, which shortens the life of the shake. Low pressure plus the right cleaning solution removes moss, algae and grey weathering without that damage.
My property is on well water and the windows have a film. Can that be removed?
Usually, yes. Hard well water leaves mineral deposits on glass, and while the deposit is still on the surface it can be removed. Once it has etched into the glass it is permanent, so it is worth addressing early and pointing irrigation heads away from the house.
Do you cover Barrington Hills and South Barrington?
Yes. We serve 60010 and the surrounding Barrington area including Barrington Hills, South Barrington, Lake Barrington, Tower Lakes and Deer Park.
Can you quote a large estate over the phone?
We prefer to walk it. On acreage with multiple buildings, the window count, the roof pitch and the equipment access change the price more than square footage does, so an on site estimate is more accurate for both of us. It is free.
