Window Cleaning for Historic Lowcountry Homes

Historic windows — wavy cylinder glass, original glazing putty, true divided lights — need technique, patience, and above all the same hands every visit.

What changes with old glass

Original panes scratch more easily and sit in putty that shouldn't be soaked or pried. Painted muntins want a careful pass, not a flood. Storm windows come off and go back on in a particular order the house teaches you. None of this suits a rotating cast of one-time crews.

Why routes suit old houses

A returning team learns your house once — which sashes are painted shut, which storm panel sticks, which panes are original — and then protects that knowledge visit after visit. In Beaufort's historic district and Old Town Bluffton, that continuity is most of the value. See window cleaning in the Historic District.
