Window cleaning in Avonhead, Christchurch

On the city’s western side, the nor’wester leaves its mark on Avonhead glass. Dave and the team rinse the dust off with pure water so it dries clear, then finish the inside with soft cotton.

How a clean runs in Avonhead

  1. Send the details

    Use the form, or ring us. Your name, suburb and when you need it done are enough to start; a photo of the highest window helps.

  2. Dave sends a free estimate

    Dave looks over the storeys, the glass and any photos, then comes back to you with a free estimate and a day that suits.

  3. Outside, from the ground

    A soft brush on a carbon-fibre water-fed pole scrubs the glass, then a rinse of pure water carries the dirt away. The glass is left wet and dries clear by itself.

  4. Inside, by hand

    A traditional mop and squeegee with water and a little dishwashing liquid, then each pane is dried with soft, lint-free cotton. The sills are wiped as we go.

  5. A reminder next time

    On a regular round, you get a reminder before each visit, every few months or as often as your place needs.

I would highly recommend Mr Slick to anyone wanting their windows cleaned. Totally hassle free experience from booking a time to having them cleaned. Our windows look amazing .

Avonhead and the nor’wester

Avonhead takes its name from a homestead at the head of the Avon River, in country full of springs, and grew into one of the city’s biggest suburbs around Avonhead Mall and parks like Crosbie Park and Stewarts Bush.

Canterbury’s strongest winds come from the north-west, and the nor’wester crosses the plains warm and dry. Dust in the city’s north-west peaks in summer, when it’s dry and windy.

Dust is grit, and wiping it off dry drags it across the glass. A pure-water rinse floats it away instead, and the pane dries clear with no soap film for the next lot to stick to.

Tips for Avonhead windows

  1. After a dusty nor’wester, leave the outside glass for a rinse rather than wiping it dry.
  2. Book a clean at the end of summer, when the dusty months are over, and another in spring.
  3. Wide sliders get the most hands and paws: inside, they’re squeegeed and dried by hand, and the sills wiped.

Questions from Avonhead

Will nor’west dust make the windows dirty again quickly?

A pure-water clean leaves no soap film for dust to cling to, so the glass stays clearer for longer between visits.
