Commercial Window Cleaning • Case Study
When Copper Point Golf Course in Invermere prepares for the season, expectations are high. With panoramic views, a full-service restaurant, pro shop, and high guest traffic, clean glass isn’t optional—it’s part of the experience.
This spring, The Valley Shiners completed a full window cleaning and glass restoration across the clubhouse— tackling 230+ windows, hard water staining, grease buildup, and multi-story glass in just two days.
The scope: 230+ windows across a high-traffic facility
The project included interior and exterior glass across:
- Clubhouse dining areas (The View restaurant)
- Pro shop and merchandising spaces
- Offices and staff areas
- Exterior façade and patio glass
Years of buildup were present in key areas, especially hard water staining on exterior glass and grease and residue in restaurant-facing windows.
The challenge: scale, access, and heavy buildup
- Multi-story glass (up to 3 stories) requiring ladder-free solutions
- Heavy mineral deposits from wind, rain, and summer misting systems
- Delicate interior environments (retail displays, dining areas)
- Complex exterior terrain including patio railings and landscaping
- Active job site with multiple contractors preparing for opening
- Unpredictable spring weather (including snow during the project)
Our approach: precision, speed, and coordination
Interior first: controlled, detailed work
We began with a 4-person crew focusing on interior glass to avoid disrupting exterior workflows. Special care was taken in the pro shop and restaurant to work around merchandising displays, offices, and dining areas.
Restaurant glass required deep cleaning to remove years of grease buildup, restoring clarity without damaging surfaces.
Exterior restoration: two-phase process
Exterior glass required a full restoration approach:
- Day 1: Hand pre-treatment and cleaning to break down mineral buildup
- Day 2: Final polish using a water-fed pole system (WFP) for a spotless finish
Access without compromise
Even with glass reaching up to three stories, we completed the project with limited use of ladders, improving safety while maintaining high-quality results.
Patio glass: the hardest section
Elevated terrain, tight access, and heavy staining made patio glass the most challenging area. Each section was detailed by hand, including buildup under railings—delivering one of the most dramatic transformations on site.
Real-time coordination
Using our booking and communication system, we maintained constant updates with the site contact, while coordinating with other trades to ensure minimal disruption across the property.
Weather agility
Spring conditions included snow and shifting weather windows, but our crew size allowed us to move quickly and complete the project efficiently when conditions allowed.
The result: a complete visual reset
The transformation was immediate. Staff and contractors on site consistently noted that:
- “The glass has never looked better.”
- Views were fully restored across dining and patio areas
- The facility was ready for peak season presentation
Following completion:
- The President/GM/Head Pro left a 5-star Google review
- We were invited back the next day to clean the golf academy facility
- We secured ongoing monthly service for the season
