Silvertip Wash Co. is a Calgary-based exterior cleaning contractor working with home builders, property developers, apartment complexes, commercial property managers, and homeowners finishing renovation projects across Calgary and within 60 km of South Calgary. New construction is hard on exteriors. By the time the last trade crew packs up, the property has accumulated a predictable trail of problems: construction dust baked onto windows and frames, cobwebs packed into siding corners and trim, oxidation settled across exterior panels, hard-water staining clouding the glass, grime embedded from months of outdoor exposure, and gravel scattered across walkways from winter build conditions. Our post-construction exterior cleaning service is designed to restore each property to a clean, polished, move-in-ready condition from the foundation up.
We are the official exterior cleaning contractor for Cardel Homes, one of Calgary’s most established residential builders, and we bring the same standards to other builders, property managers, and developers who need a property cleaned and ready before keys change hands. Our process uses heated pressure washing systems, soft wash multi-step siding restoration, reverse osmosis purified water window cleaning, panel-by-panel hand scrubbing, and surface cleaning for driveways and walkways. These methods address every common post-construction problem thoroughly without putting brand-new siding, glass, or trim at risk.
Everything starts with an inquiry through our website or a direct call. We ask a few qualifying questions about the property type and current condition, then arrange an in-person site visit before providing a quote. Oxidation levels, hard-water staining, and construction residue vary too much between sites to price accurately without seeing the property.
Once a quote is accepted, we manage scheduling through Jobber. You receive an appointment confirmation, a day-before reminder, and any preparation instructions before the visit. If items need to be cleared from window or siding access areas, we let you know in advance so there are no holdups on the day.
Cones go around the work area, equipment is positioned to avoid hazards, and ladders are set carefully before any cleaning begins. On commercial sites and apartment complexes with active foot traffic, we take additional steps to mark off work zones and keep tenants, customers, and remaining site personnel clear throughout the job.
Exterior cleaning runs the full five-step process: heated low-pressure rinse, oxidation-removing detergents, panel-by-panel hand scrubbing, hot water rinse, and a reverse osmosis purified water finishing rinse. Concrete surfaces are treated with heated pressure washing and surface cleaner attachments. Decks are cleaned according to their material type.
With exterior surfaces done, we move to windows. Every window receives frame cleaning, sill cleaning, screen cleaning, and glass agitation with a soft natural hair brush before the final purified water rinse, which dries streak-free and leaves no soap film remaining on the glass.
We walk the property with you so you can inspect the finished work before we leave the site. Once you are satisfied, the invoice goes out and we leave you with referral cards and any applicable service coupons.
We call every client four to five days after the job to confirm everything still looks right and nothing has come up since we left. If anything needs attention, we address it. That call is also a natural time to discuss what regular exterior maintenance might look like for the property going forward.
Every post-construction clean is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee, supported by an end-of-service walkthrough inspection, a follow-up call four to five days later, and professional resolution if anything comes up after we leave.
You walk the property with us before we go, not after the invoice is already sent. We carry over $2 million in insurance coverage, which matters for builders, property developers, and commercial property managers with liability exposure on active project sites. If you need a certificate of insurance before booking, we can provide one.
Yes. Our post-construction cleaning services require access to an on-site water supply to run the heated pressure washing and purified water window cleaning systems. In most cases, a standard outdoor faucet is sufficient for the job.
Yes. We coordinate with property managers or building owners to schedule work at appropriate times, prioritize higher-traffic areas first, and set up cones and careful equipment placement to keep disruption to tenants or customers to a minimum throughout the job.
Yes. If a property owner or building management team prefers the work done outside regular operating hours to reduce disruption, we can coordinate a time that fits the site’s schedule.
We follow the cleaning procedures appropriate for each site and work with the property owner when specific environmental requirements apply. For commercial sites where water reclamation or runoff control is needed, we discuss those requirements during the planning stage before any work begins.
We control water pressure carefully around delicate or older window frames, particularly wood-framed windows, and avoid directing water into vulnerable frame areas. That approach protects the window structure while still achieving a thorough clean on the glass and surrounding surfaces.
In some cases, yes. We recommend clearing items that could block access to windows or exterior surfaces, such as furniture, equipment, or decorations near window areas. If heavier items need to be moved, our crew can assist with that when we arrive.
Hard water stains can often be improved significantly, though complete removal depends on how long the staining has been present and how deeply it has set into the glass. When needed, we apply specialized cleaning solutions to lift mineral buildup before completing the purified water rinse, which can greatly improve overall glass clarity.
Yes. We are happy to share guidance on keeping windows and exterior surfaces in good shape after the service. Seasonal or quarterly maintenance is what we generally recommend: regular cleaning prevents buildup from becoming difficult to remove and keeps the property looking its best between major cleaning rounds.
