Professional Window Cleaning in Orange County: How
Many homeowners don’t realize that something as simple as their sprinkler system can quietly damage their windows and cost them much more over time.
If your sprinklers are spraying water directly onto your downstairs windows, you may already be dealing with hard water deposits. These deposits are not just a cosmetic issue. They can turn into a serious and expensive problem if left untreated.
What Is Hard Water Damage on Windows?
Hard water contains minerals like calcium and magnesium. When sprinkler water repeatedly hits your windows and dries, those minerals stay behind. Over time, they build up and bond to the glass.
At first, the spots may look minor. But as months and years pass, the deposits become harder, thicker, and much more difficult to remove.
Why Hard Water Removal Costs More
Every window cleaning company in Orange County charges extra for hard water removal, and OC Cleaning is no exception. There is a good reason for this.
Removing hard water deposits takes significantly more time, requires special chemicals that must dwell properly, cannot be sprayed once and left, and often requires repeated scrubbing with non-scratch pads. This process is slow, detailed, and labor-intensive, which is why it costs more than regular window cleaning.
When Hard Water Damage Becomes Permanent
We have seen many cases where hard water damage reached a stage where no window cleaner could remove it. At that point, the glass itself is etched and permanently damaged. The only solution then is window replacement, which costs far more than professional window cleaning.
How You Can Save Money
If you have sprinklers, make sure they are not spraying directly onto your windows. Adjusting or replacing sprinkler heads is a simple step that can prevent costly damage and save money long-term.
Bought a Home With Existing Hard Water Damage?
If you purchased a home with existing hard water deposits, professional window cleaning in Orange County may cost extra to attempt removal. The benefit is that a professional can tell you whether the damage is removable or permanent, helping you avoid unnecessary future expenses.
