Sunshine Windows, run by owner-operator Emilio. Established in 2014, I provide premium quality services for jobs of all sizes. Specializing in large-scale and complex jobs, I pride myself on my work ethic and integrity. In eleven years, I have only had to use my insurance once, at the very beginning of my career. I since learned how to polish glass to remove scratches and belive preperation is the best insurance. While things have gone wrong—such as broken window panes, excessive pressure, surfaces too hot for chemicals, and dislodged roof sheets—I have never left an unhappy client, and any damage has been repaired to as good, if not better, than its original condition.

Window Cleaning in Adelaide Since 2004 

Adapting to different work environments

Every job is different. A residential home in the Adelaide Hills is not the same as a commercial shop front, and the complexities left behind by a construction crew can be a whole different beast. I've learnt to adapt my cleaning methods to the specific challenges of each environment and any specific requirements from the client. As a rule of thumb, maintenance cleans can be done with minimal tools, amounts of water, solution, and scrubbing exertion (if any). As periods between cleaning are stretched out, carrying a selection of tools and pre-spraying techniques become more viable, as well as coupling services like Exterior Cleaning. Call Emilio 0414182126 or fill in our form for a quick response.

Residential Homes:

I'm often cleaning up fingerprints, pet nose prints, pet hair, and general dust. I also have to be mindful of fragile items, furniture, and landscaping. I'm careful to use the right tools and solutions to get the job done without causing any damage. Call Emilio 0414182126 or fill in our form for a quick response

Construction Sites:

These can be more complex jobs and require a higher level of expertise. I'm often working around other trades, navigating work sites, and cleaning up cement splatter, silicone, and paint. A white card, safety boots, and OHS knowledge are necessary. Call Emilio0414182126 or fill in our form for a quick response

Commercial Shopfronts:

A professional image and environment. I'm often working outside of business hours to avoid disrupting customers and to ensure the windows are clean for the next business day. I prioritize safety, using proper signage when working during business hours. Call Emilio0414182126 or fill in our form for a quick response

Adelaide Hills & Eastern Suburbs:

These areas have their own unique challenges. I'm often dealing with hard water from sprinkler systems, organic growth from trees, and even shotgun spores—the sticky, black specks from Artillery Fungus. Other landscape features and different styles of architecture, fragile materials including aged render, sandstone, and timber, also present unique considerations. Call Emilio0414182126 or fill in our form for a quick response

My Tools and Procedures:

The most efficient tool is the one you know best; consistency is key, especially early mornings and poor lighting conditions like working in extreme glare. My experience has led me to a few core procedures that are the foundation of my work.

Pre-Spraying and allowing solutions to dwell:

Building upon Softwashing techniques and experience from concrete removal is perfect example for the benefits of softening debris with the correct solution before removal.

Traditional Squeegee Cleaning: 

The Trad Method, using a squeegee and a soap solution, is still the most versatile and the best option for internal windows. It's a skilled art that I've been perfecting for decades, making it look easy.

The biggest pro tip I could offer to anyone trying for themselves is the blade's condition and type of rubber/silicone combined with the correct angle to glass is where to start. (soft for winter medium for summer)

Pure Water (WFP):

Water-fed pole systems use de-ionized/reverse osmosis filtration to remove minerals from water, which allows for a spot-free finish.

  • It's a great option for hard-to-access external windows and for regular external maintenance cleans.
  • However, it's clearly not a good option for internal windows.
  • Please advise if you know any windows that are not water tight during rain.
  • Often Windows that are covered/sheltered from the rain can have leaks not previously known about, one typical scenario is the top architrave or back of frame is not gapped (this can be fixed with a caulking gun, glad to do so)

"Pro tip"

When using acrylic gap fillers, invest in a quality external product and consider whether you need a paintable or silicone filler. For the best results, use a good caulking gun that is reliable and ergonomic, as this will help you achieve consistent results with less mess.

Multi-Stage Cleaning:

For a heavily soiled window, a two-stage process is often the most effective.

The first stage is a quick, efficient clean to remove the bulk of debris (house washing is perfect for exteriors and pure water can be used for a spot-free rinse), the first stage negates keeping tools perfectly clean and chasing two sides of a see-through surface on a first pass. Perfect time to pre-spray, allow to dwell, emulsify and encapsulate.

The second stage is for a meticulous clean, which can be achieved from a manageable state.

This is generally something for post-construction cleans, but you can get scenarios like excessive pet hair and dust with eco glass being a challenge. It’s a hard beast to describe briefly, but debris stuck to the rubber blade leaves streaks. Using extra water is the only real solution but can be excessive, and breaking it into stages can be a better approach.

Simply scrubbing whilst aiming for great results can be a quick way down crazy town.

Chemicals:

Less soap and even no soap is nearly always more.

I use different chemicals for different jobs as a rule of thumb:

  • Alkaline solutions for organic growth.
  • Acidic solutions for hard water and rust stains.
  • PH-neutral solutions for everything else.

"Pro tip"

Recommend Truck Soap (Ct-18) for squeegee work and pure water for spot cleaning.

Exterior Cleaning Since 2014

Pressure Washing

My first washer in 2014 was a cold water, petrol $700 hardware job that blew up on its first day. An A&E Karcher repair representative provided me with great information and value, organized cash back for an upgrade to a commercial powered unit and soon after a hot-water unit. I have since been off and going (the original hot-water system still works though I gave it to a friend, after upgrading to a much bigger unit). Significant upgrades on 2016 moving into graffiti removal and softwashing with my move to NSW.

Example of how to book your first job for maximum value:

  • Book a 3-hour job for $360 without a quote to receive $100 cash back, bringing your total to $260.
  • Upon payment, sign up for an annual 32-hour plan to receive an additional 10% off.
  • For a further 20% off, choose a monthly regularity of 3 hours, totaling 36 hours over 12 months. This brings your total discount to 30%.

Soft Washing Since 2016

Having moved the Mid North Coast, a humid environment organic growth removal products I had used in the past where no longer an efficient option.

Successfully and efficiently removing organic growth since.

Screen Repairs Since 2010

Burns for Blinds

I worked for Burns for Blinds about 15 years ago and was out by myself, installing security screens and doors as well as blinds. By my second week, customers were already contacting the company about my high standards of installation—I would ensure blinds were as close as possible to level while still following the contours of the building (not all buildings are level, and level blinds need less adjusting). I would also regularly be assigned to troubleshoot misaligned locks and strikers. This experience was my introduction to security screens and hanging doors and has been an invaluable asset.

Screens and Glass Corrosion 

One of the major contributors to glass corrosion is alkali being striped from alloy screens once the protective coating has been degraded, generally by UV sun exposure at which point rain deposits it onto the glass where over time it changes the Ph of the glass leading to a white haze. fibre glass prevents this from being an issue at the sacrifice of strength.

Equipment and extra information 

Out sourcing manufacture of security screens, In house building and repair of all insect screens: alloy and wood.

Handyman Since Inception

Creative Inquisitive Life

From out doors building play houses to pulling apart my first gumby radio and getting an MS-DOS computer, I have always been inquisitive, pulling things apart to rebuild and improve. Dad built sections of our house in Sicily and involved us.

After high school, I had jobs renovating and building, installing insulation and pool heating to name a couple. Throughout my window cleaning career, I have worked on building sites, paying attention, and I have been doing gutter repairs and odd jobs since establishing SW.

The last 8 years I have worked with different trades, personally renovated our family house, done farm work, and worked with mechanics as well as some steel fabrication and repairs. Trades I worked with included General Building, Plastering and Painting, Gutter Mesh Installation, Cabinetry, and Landscaping. I have always done my own mechanics and looked after my work equipment.

I geek out on computers, especially sim racing, building my rig using a Toyota supra seat (I favor my Toyotas). I have a wide range of skills and always enjoy new projects. Contact me to arrange a custom quote.

Equipment and extra information 

It's a struggle to carry it all... I have setup a horse float in a way that works really well though ands it great for big jobs secure, allowing me to detach and leave till completion for bigger jobs.

Gutter Cleaning Since 2014

Monkey Magic

Been climbing since a tacker enjoyed roof work from the age of 17, when I started doing Solar Heating. Took to gutter cleaning very naturally, I find nothing beats gloves and bags overall. Flushing is great way to check fall of gutters and flow of storm water.

  • Offer down pipe and drain clearing.
  • Free basic Roofing inspection.
  • Extra roofing services available.

Equipment and extra information 

  • Fall Arrest System
  • Anchor Temp Points
  • Dunlop Volley Shoes
  • Rubber gloves with cut proof gloves to go over top
  • Flat bottomed bags
  • Scraper/pusher
  • Rinse nozzles
  • hot water Jetter and drain snake

Solar Panel Cleanning Since 2014

Mega Watt Power

I have been offering Solar Panel cleaning since I started SW. During my time in NSW, one of my window cleaning clients was Mega Watt Power Est. 1989, a reputable solar energy company. They were a great example of best practice in regards to solar panels, as well as being very nice.

Standard price is $10 per panel. With regular cleaning, including gutters and roof care, it will be considerably cheaper (2-3 times a year could see a cost of $3-4 per panel).

Equipment and extra information 

  • Solar Panel Water Feed Poles.
  • Pure Water Filters.
  • Fall Arrest Systems
  • Temp Anchor Points.
  • Dunlop volly Shoes.
  • Rinse nozzles and temprature control

Pressure is not recommended as excess can damage seal protecting internals from weather etc. For panels that been neglected the best approach I have found is hot water pressure cleaner with surface attachment to do majority of panel avoiding frame and seal, finishing of edges with cleaning pad/brush and extension pole.

Roof Cleaning Since 2017

Shredded Timing Belt

I will never forget my first roof clean; it was a trial by fire. I found out that the black organic growth under eucalyptus is no ordinary growth and had massively underestimated the required amount of sodium hypochlorite. My first 12V pump really wasn't up to the job, and after three long days, on the way home, my car snapped its timing belt. I learned from the experience, completed the job, and my happy client—a builder who gave me some really good business advice—got the rest of his house and pathways cleaned.

I have since cleaned many roofs and painted a dozen. I have also performed roof re-screws and replaced flashing, sheets, and guttering, along with some re-pointing and bedding on tiled roofs.

Equipment and extra information 

  • Softwash System
  • Pressure Cleaner with 21" surface attachment
  • Solar Panel Water Feed Poles
  • Pure Water filters
  • Fall Arrest System
  • Temp Anchor Points
  • Dunlop Volley Shoes
  • Rubber gloves with cut proof gloves to go over top
  • Flat bottomed bags
  • Scraper/pusher
  • Rinse nozzles
  • hot water Jetter and drain snake

Rule of thumb:

  • Tiled roof: Softwash (stronger solution), low pressure rinse. (property protection strong chemicals)
  • Steel roof: weak solution medium-high pressure with responsible use

Painting Since 2018

Who Showed You, How to Hold a Brush?

Providing cleaning services for a few local painters, I would often end up doing prep or painting myself. Over time, this became regular, and it led me to work on several construction jobs. While performing graffiti removal, the best approach is often stain blocking and repainting. Upon returning to Adelaide, I recently painted for Queen Elizabeth Specialty Center with Excel Property Services, acting as the lead hand. I have generally painted hard-to-reach areas due to prior experience at heights, having painted ceilings, trims, walls, and roofs. I've also performed plaster and cornice repairs, re-profiled exterior surfaces, and used gloss and oil-based finishes as well as stain and lacquer.

Equipment and extra information 

  • Paint brushes
  • Drop sheets
  • Access equipment
  • Exterior cleaning equipment
  • Hiring sprayer until viable to purchase

Timber Care since 2014

Conflicting Talk, Personal Experience

I've always really enjoyed working with wood, making furniture, restoring floors, and rejuvenating countless exterior wood products from cleaning and sanding, staining, and general repairs to building from scratch. With many approaches to wood care, we will create a custom plan to keep your timber in the best condition within your budget.
