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
- Removal of construction dust and stucco overspray from exterior glass
- Interior glass cleaning to remove drywall dust film
- Window frame and sill wipe-down
- Screen cleaning — screens often carry fine construction dust too
- Door track cleaning — tracks collect debris during the build
Stucco residue is on a clock
New construction glass in Rancho Viejo carries the full range of build residue — drywall dust film inside, stucco and mortar overspray outside — and the exterior residue is the urgent part. It is alkaline, and it bonds to glass as it cures. Removed promptly it comes off cleanly; left to cure through a season it etches the surface permanently, and a pane that has etched has to be replaced rather than cleaned.
Still an active construction area
Building continues across Rancho Viejo, so fine dust keeps landing well after a particular house is finished and a single clean at handover is often not enough. We remove exterior stucco overspray and construction dust, clear the interior drywall film, wipe frames and sills where residue concentrates, and clean the screens, which usually carry fine construction dust of their own.
Pricing
Post-construction cleaning is quoted separately from maintenance service, based on pane count and how heavy the residue is.

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