Nothing dissolved in it
The water is stripped first and can then lift dirt without leaving anything of its own.
Pure Water Window Cleaning in Gorey, Co. Wexford
Come a dry week in Gorey, the traffic on the main route lifts a fine grit that finds its way onto every front window in the town. We take it off and leave nothing behind for the next lot to stick to, on the terraces and the newer estates alike.

What road dust does to Gorey glass between cleans
Dust is not simply something sitting on your window waiting to be wiped away. With a bit of moisture and a few weeks, that dust turns into a bonded film, and the film is what we are really dealing with for you.
A dry spell is worse than a wet one
Rain keeps the dust down. A fortnight of dry weather on a busy through-route lets it hang in the air instead, and your front windows collect it steadily. You will notice a dulling before you notice dirt, and by then it has keyed into the glass on you. Anyone who has parked a car on the street for a fortnight in August knows the exact colour we mean.
Dust and damp make a film together
The grit that lands dry does not stay dry for long. The first heavy dew binds it into a grey layer that dries hard on your pane, and rain then runs through it in streaks instead of washing it off. We break that layer with the brush and float it away with the rinse. Brake dust and diesel soot are part of what makes it stubborn, and both are greasier than field dust, which is why a country house and a town house behave differently.
Front and back of one house can differ wildly
On a Main Street terrace your street-facing glass takes everything while the back stays comparatively sheltered. Out on the estate roads the whole house picks up a lighter, more even coating. We adjust how long we work each elevation, so you are not paying for effort your back windows do not need. A house on a corner catches it from two directions at once, and we allow extra time for those. It shows from outside.
Gorey has grown a great deal, as you will know, and the mix now runs from the older terraces around Main Street to the estates on the edge of town and out to the houses towards Kilanerin. Traffic film reaches nearly all of it, in different amounts. Whichever side of town you are on, we clean to the same finish and your glass dries clear. Shopfront glass and house glass behave the same way on a through-route, incidentally, so if you have premises on the street as well as a home on the edge of town, one call covers the pair of them.
How a Gorey clean actually runs
Start to finish, in four.
A soft head on the glass
The film comes off the pane and out of the corners without scouring.
Reached from the path
The pole takes the rinse to the top floor, and no ladder goes near the house.
Left to clear itself
There is nothing on the glass to dry into a mark, so it finishes on its own.

Roof cleaningAreas we cover near Gorey and across County Wexford
Gorey and the north of the county are one of our regular runs.
We clean around Main Street and the estates spread out from it, then keep going towards Kilanerin and Ballycanew. If your road is not one we have named, ask us anyway, because the run covers a good deal more than fits in a paragraph. Estate roads with one shared entrance suit us particularly well, since a single stop can cover several houses without the van moving.
That day usually takes in Courtown as well, and we catch Ferns and Ballymoney heading home. Drop us the Eircode for a date on our next visit to your corner of North Wexford.

Gorey window cleaning: your questions
My windows look grey rather than dirty. Is that the same thing?
It generally is. A fine even film of road dust reads as dullness rather than as dirt, which is why people live with it for months without placing what changed. Once it is off, you notice how much more light the room gets, and that is usually when people ask us about the round. Rooms at the front of a terrace feel it most, since they were never getting much daylight to begin with and the film takes a share of what there is.
What does it cost in Gorey?
On a small house the Signature Round runs from €25. Bigger properties, extra glazing and high-reach sections are quoted on the spot at the house itself, and you hear the number before anything goes in the diary.
Is it worth cleaning if the dust only comes back?
Dust will land again, and we would rather be honest with you about that. The difference is what it lands on. A pane rinsed with purified water has no detergent film to grip, so the next lot sits loosely and lifts easily next time. Your house also looks well in the meantime, which is most of the reason you are asking.
Do you do the Main Street terraces as well as the estates?
We do both. Terraces bring their own puzzles, with parking, footpath space and older sash windows, so we plan those for the quieter part of the day. Say where you are and the practicalities get worked out with you well before we turn up on the street.
How do I get booked in?
Book online at eireshine.ie/schedule-window-clean, which takes a couple of minutes, or send us a WhatsApp with your Eircode. We will confirm the day we are next in Gorey and put your house on it.
