Window Cleaning in Mac-Groveland
Streak-free windows for Mac-Groveland houses and Grand Avenue storefronts, from a crew that lives here.
We Live on This Side of Town
Gleam Team is based on Cretin Avenue South, which puts us inside Macalester-Groveland rather than driving in from a suburb. More of our work happens between Summit and the river than anywhere else in the Twin Cities, and after a few seasons you get to know the housing stock: which blocks have the divided-light sashes, which have the wood storms that still come out every spring.
The business is owned and operated by Alex, every job is backed by the Gleam Guarantee, and you do not pay until the work is done.
What Mac-Groveland Windows Are Like
Three things we plan around on nearly every job in 55105.
Houses built between the wars
Mac-Groveland filled in mostly from the 1900s through the 1930s: Tudors, bungalows, and foursquares, with divided-light sashes, leaded glass, and bay windows. A window that looks like one pane from the sidewalk is often eight or twelve, and each one has corners that hold grime.
The boulevard canopy
The elms and maples that make Summit and the side streets what they are also drop pollen on the glass in May, helicopter seeds into the gutters in June, and a heavy load of leaves every October.
Grand Avenue storefronts
We do the shops and restaurants along Grand too. Storefront glass at street level takes fingerprints, road spray, and salt film all winter, and it is the first thing a customer looks through.
Recent Work
Same window, before and after.
Services in Mac-Groveland
Book one or combine a few in the same visit and you only pay one trip out.
Window Cleaning
Interior and exterior glass, frames and sills detailed. Outside panes are cleaned with purified water from a water-fed pole that reaches up to 40 feet, so nothing leans against your siding.
Storms & Screens
Plenty of Mac-Groveland houses still have the original wood storms and screens that come out, get cleaned, and go back in. We handle them carefully and reinstall them properly.
Gutter Cleaning
The boulevard elms and maples along Summit and Grand fill gutters fast. We clear the troughs and downspouts by hand, then flush them.
Power Washing
Front steps, walks, driveways, patios, and decks, with the pressure matched to the surface so old concrete and soft wood come out clean rather than chewed up.
