Hi, I'm Dan
I run Pink's across Palm Beach and West Palm, and I'm the one who walks your property and texts you back. Old Northwood homes are special — original casement and leaded glass from the 1920s that gets hand-detailed, not squeegeed and rushed. The same crew shows up every visit and learns your house: which windows are original, which were swapped for impact glass, where the salt hits hardest.

Historic Window & Exterior Care
The Pink's Home Promise at Old Northwood
Old Northwood is West Palm Beach's first historic district — 1920s and '30s Mediterranean Revival and Mission homes with original casement and leaded glass that has survived a century. That glass deserves better than a generic once-over.
The Pink's Home Promise: Dan walks your property, hand-details the original glass with gentle methods, and cleans any renovated impact glass coating-safe. The same crew comes back every visit and learns your home.
You sit a block off the Intracoastal, and WPB municipal water runs 150–250 ppm. Between the salt air and the hard water, some Old Northwood homes settle into a quarterly rhythm; others prefer twice a year. Your call — Dan proposes the plan after walking the property.
What Salt and Hard Water Do to Your Glass
A short list of what salt air off the Intracoastal, irrigation, and West Palm Beach hard water do to your glass if it's not actively maintained:
Month 6
Faint haze in raking morning light. Easy to miss.
Month 12
Visible head-on. Standard cleaners can't remove it.
Month 18–24
Permanent etching. On renovated impact glass, $1,200–$2,800 per pane to replace — and original 1920s glass can't be replaced like-for-like at all.
150–250 ppm
West Palm Beach municipal water hardness — plus Intracoastal salt air
WPB municipal water hardness runs 150–250 ppm depending on location, and salt air off the Intracoastal compounds the damage. The fix isn't dramatic: neutral-pH chemistry, deionized water rinses, soft pads on impact glass, and original leaded and casement glass detailed by hand. Nothing alkaline near coated or historic surfaces. That's the whole product.

Built for Old Northwood's Historic Glass
Old Northwood is West Palm Beach's first designated historic district, with over 300 structures dating to the 1920s and '30s — Mediterranean Revival and Mission-style homes, Frame Vernacular bungalows, and period details that residents have worked to preserve for decades. The windows are part of that character, and they need cleaning methods that respect it.
Original casement windows, leaded and decorative glass, wood frames, and period hardware can't take the same treatment as a hurricane-rated impact panel. We hand-detail historic glass with gentle, non-abrasive methods and chemistry matched to each surface. No pressure washing near historic windows. Many Old Northwood homes have been renovated with modern impact glass while keeping the original architecture — those get a hybrid approach: coating-safe methods on the new glass, gentler treatment on the original.
Sitting a block off the Intracoastal north of downtown, Old Northwood takes moderate salt exposure on top of the standard South Florida hard water, pollen, and humidity. We use deionized water systems, neutral-pH coating-safe solutions, and hand-detailing for original glass on every job. $2M insured, background-checked crews. Want Dan to walk your property?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is The Pink's Home Promise?
Dan walks your property in person, proposes a plan that fits your home and your schedule, and the same crew handles every visit — windows, sills, tracks, screens, and original or impact glass alike. You set the rhythm: quarterly for some Old Northwood homes given the salt air and hard water, twice a year for others. No high-pressure sales, just an honest plan.
Can you safely clean original 1920s windows?
Yes. We hand-detail original leaded and casement glass with non-abrasive methods, neutral-pH chemistry, and care for the period wood frames and hardware. No pressure washing near historic surfaces. Many Old Northwood homes mix original glass with renovated impact glass, and we match the method to each window in the same home.
Is your cleaning safe for impact glass and Low-E coatings?
Yes. On renovated Old Northwood homes with modern impact glass we use non-abrasive pads, neutral-pH chemistry, and deionized water rinses. West Palm Beach municipal water runs 150–250 ppm hardness, and salt air off the Intracoastal compounds the damage — most cheap services use alkaline cleaners that etch exposed surfaces over time. We don't.
How often should Old Northwood homes get cleaned?
It's your call. Sitting near the Intracoastal with WPB municipal water at 150–250 ppm, some Old Northwood homes settle into a quarterly rhythm to stay ahead of salt and mineral spotting; others prefer twice a year. Dan proposes the plan after walking the property.
What do you actually clean on each visit?
Every pane inside and out, sills, tracks and frames, and screens — original glass hand-detailed, impact glass cleaned coating-safe. The same crew cleans the whole property every visit. Gutter cleaning and driveway or walkway washing (not near historic surfaces) are available as add-ons.
What happens if something is missed or damaged?
If anything is missed, we come back — that's the promise. We carry $2M in liability coverage, run background checks on every crew member, and use coating-safe solutions and gentle methods on historic glass. In the rare event of an issue, we document it immediately, file a claim the same day, and make it right.
