Can you remove stucco splatter without scratching?

Yes, when it's done correctly — glass kept wet, right blade angle, right sequence. Done incorrectly it scratches permanently, which is the main argument for not attempting it yourself.

How soon after move-in should I book?

Sooner is easier and cheaper. Residue is simplest to lift while fresh; the longer it bakes under high-altitude sun, the harder it bonds.

Do you work with builders directly?

Yes, as well as with homeowners after handover. Get in touch with the property details and we'll quote it.

New Construction Window Cleaning in Rancho Viejo

Rancho Viejo is where most of Santa Fe's new building happens, and new glass arrives carrying a specific set of problems: drywall dust film, stucco overspray, mortar splatter, and construction grit. This is a different job from a maintenance clean and it's priced separately.

Stucco and mortar splatter keeps curing where it lands and will etch if it's left through a season. Removing it properly means keeping the glass flooded and using a blade at the correct angle — done wrong, and it's the fastest way to put permanent scratches across a brand-new window.

What's Included
