Exterior cleaning for Lakeway homes in the Lake Travis and West Austin area
Summer Heat Season
Central Texas summers regularly push past 100 degrees. That heat bakes dirt, pollen, and organic growth into your windows, siding, and concrete. What would rinse off in March becomes permanent by August.
Beat the Heat — Book NowDaniel and Kara clean windows and exteriors in one of Lake Travis's original communities
Lakeway wasn't a suburb that drifted toward the lake — it started as the lake destination. The city grew out of a 2,700-acre ranch owned by Houston oilman Jack "Jake" Josey, with development beginning in 1962 and the Lakeway resort hotel opening its doors in July 1963. By the time it incorporated as a village in 1974, Lakeway had already established what it remains today: a community on the south shore of Lake Travis organized around golf, marinas, and life on the water.
That six-decade head start shows. Drive Lakeway Boulevard or Lohmans Crossing — named for Johann Heinrich Lohmann, the German-born settler whose river-crossing road predates everything else here — and you pass under mature oak canopy on curving streets that follow the terrain instead of fighting it. Established homes sit alongside newer construction, so exterior cleaning needs run the full range from decades-old masonry to brand-new stucco.
We're Daniel and Kara, and River Blue Services is our family business. We've worked in Lakeway, and we bring window cleaning , pressure washing , soft washing , and gutter cleaning to homes across the city — quoted honestly and done carefully, whether the house is a sixty-year-old original or a new build on the west side of town.
Daniel and Kara handle every Lakeway job themselves — the estimate, the scheduling, and the work. Two names, one standard.
General liability insurance covers our window cleaning services, so hiring us is a professional transaction from start to finish.
One phone call gets you a real quote built on your home's windows, surfaces, and access — never a teaser price that grows on arrival.
Mature trees and lake air keep an established community's exteriors busy
Lakeway's oaks are one of its best features and its exteriors' biggest workload. A mature canopy drops leaves, twigs, pollen, and fine debris across roofs, gutters, windows, and patios all year, and shaded surfaces under the trees stay damp long enough to grow algae. It's a fair trade for streets that look the way Lakeway's do — but it means the exterior needs regular attention to stay ahead of the fallout.
Gutter cleaning matters more here than in newly planted neighborhoods for exactly this reason: gutters under old oaks fill fast, and blocked gutters dump water where you least want it.
From December into March, cedar pollen blankets Central Texas, and glass shows it first — a yellow-green film that rain streaks around rather than rinses away. A post-cedar-season window cleaning is one of the highest-impact appointments a Lakeway homeowner can book all year, and windows start at $250.
A community developed since 1962 carries building materials spanning six decades — original masonry, mid-vintage siding, and modern stucco sometimes on the same street. We choose methods by material: soft washing for stone, stucco, and painted surfaces, appropriate pressure for concrete, and patient hand-detailing on older glass. Blasting everything at maximum pressure is how exteriors get damaged, and it's not how we work.
Established landscaping means established irrigation, often aimed a little too close to the windows, where overspray dries into mineral spots on the glass. Meanwhile, driveways and pool decks pick up the standard Central Texas mix of tire marks, dirt, and algae that pressure washing handles, with a $250 job minimum.
Soft washing runs $450 for a whole home or $250 for a single wall, and one call to (512) 222-3765 gets everything quoted together — windows, hard surfaces, walls, and gutters in one visit.
From the original 1960s sections to Rough Hollow, we clean across Lakeway
Rough Hollow is the modern chapter of the Lakeway story — a large lakeside community with its own marina and resort-style amenities, carrying forward the recreation-first idea the original developers started in the 1960s. Homes there tend toward big glass, generous outdoor living space, and multi-level construction on sloped ground, all of which reward professional exterior care. Serene Hills and Flintrock at Hurst Creek, home to a Jack Nicklaus golf course, round out the newer side of town.
The Hills of Lakeway wraps around private golf, Tuscan Village serves the 55+ crowd, and neighborhoods like Cardinal Hills, St Andrews, and Lohmans Crossing Estates hold the mature homes and mature trees that give Lakeway its settled character. Established homes are some of our favorite work: the difference a thorough window cleaning and a freshly washed driveway make on a house with real landscaping and real canopy is bigger than on any new build.
Four services that cover a Lakeway exterior from the glass to the gutters
Residential window cleaning from $250 — interior and exterior or exterior-only, priced on window count, glass condition, and access. Older glass gets the patient treatment it needs.

Learn MoreLow-pressure washing for stone, stucco, and siding across Lakeway's six decades of building materials: $450 for the full home exterior, $250 for a single wall showing staining.
Learn MoreGutter clear-outs that keep water moving — essential under Lakeway's oak canopy, and easy to schedule alongside a window cleaning appointment.
Learn MoreHard-surface cleaning for driveways, patios, walkways, and outdoor spaces
Some Lakeway driveways have been in service since the resort-hotel days, and even the newer ones live under trees that stain concrete steadily. Pressure washing lifts off the accumulated gray — dirt, algae, tannin from fallen leaves, tire marks — and the surface underneath almost always looks far better than the owner expected. It's routinely the most satisfying before-and-after we produce.
Method matters on older flatwork. We read the condition of the surface and set our approach accordingly, so aged concrete gets clean without getting scarred in the process.
Lakeway is an outdoor community — golf, the lake, and patios that see real use most of the year. All that traffic, combined with shade from mature trees, means pool decks and outdoor living areas collect grime and grow slick algae faster than the house itself gets dirty. Regular hard-surface cleaning keeps those spaces presentable and safe underfoot.

What your home needs right now
Once June hits, Central Texas bakes. Temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees, and the sun intensity is brutal on exterior surfaces. Dirt and pollen that accumulated in spring gets cooked onto windows and siding. Driveways and sidewalks develop dark tire marks and organic staining that gets harder to remove with every hot day.
Summer is also when families are using their outdoor spaces the most — pools, patios, backyard decks. Clean exterior glass lets natural light flood your home, and a pressure-washed patio makes outdoor entertaining more enjoyable.
Yes, we adjust our schedule to work in the early morning hours during peak summer. The water actually evaporates quickly in the heat, which means surfaces dry fast and look great immediately. We stay hydrated and take precautions — we're out in this heat regularly.
