Blue Heron Services

If you're expecting a traditional window washing experience, this will be a disappointment. While Trent is a personable young worker, his chosen method of outside window washing using "new technology" simply reinforces the fact that not everything new is better.

His method does not include the traditional soapy brush, rinse and squeegee system that is time tested. Rather, he employs a machine/brush combination that supposedly turns traditional tap water into purified water that leaves no residue on the window. No soap or cleaning solution here. Doubtless it is easier for him to clean windows, but the result is there are still some streaks when he is finished. Yep, he might attribute those to the purified water picking up residue from the window frame or something else but that means the windows will not be spotless. Also, if there is sap or other contaminants on the window they will remain. After all, there is no soap, rubbing or "elbow grease" involved so if you want those blemishes handled he will up-charge you.

Trent will come back if we see areas that need to be done again. But isn't the whole idea of hiring a professional so that the work will be done correctly the first time? I do admire his willingness to satisfy his customer. And I guess one can't please everybody. So there you have it - my review.

As it turns out, the over-all job gets a B grade - adequate but certainly not superior (which is what a 5 star recommendation implies).

The owner/operator did a fantastic job. Not only did he efficiently and proficiently power washed my home on the river with steps to the dock, he did it in a timely basis . His prices and attitude make this one of the best values I've found in this post-covid craziness. I plan to use him annually. He was also able to clean all 52 windows for an additional fee that was excellent and for that I am grateful.

I would highly recommend Blue Heron Services. We had our roof and house cleaned. There were a few problems but after calling Trent, he came right back to solve the issue. Trent did an excellent detailed job. We couldn’t be more pleased with his efforts and he was extremely easy to work with on this project.
