When the leaves begin to fall in southeastern Manitoba, many homeowners start thinking about raking, storing patio furniture – and making sure their eavestroughs are clear before the first snow. For Derrick, owner of Eastman Window Cleaning, fall is one of the busiest and most rewarding seasons of the year.
“We’re based in Steinbach, but we cover a huge area,” says Derrick. “I’ve worked everywhere from Lac du Bonnet to Pinawa, even as far as Ontario for cabin cleanings. People don’t want to spend their time at the lake doing chores – that’s what I’m here for.”
Derrick purchased Eastman Window Cleaning in April after working for the previous owner for five years. Now in its sixth year of business, the company serves both residential and commercial clients, offering a wide range of services beyond its name.
More than just windows
While streak-free windows are the company’s signature, the team also handles eavestrough cleaning, screen and track washing, pressure washing, and even post-construction clean-up. A seasonal favourite? Christmas light installation and supply.
“Installing lights before the snow hits is ideal,” Derrick says with a smile. “We can still get it done after, but it’s not the safest or easiest when the roof is slippery.”
Fall preparation starts early
With autumn approaching, eavestrough cleaning quickly becomes a top priority.
“Once the leaves start coming down, eavestroughs fill up fast,” Derrick explains. “That’s when we get a lot of calls. Fall books up quickly, so it’s best to schedule early to get the date you want.”
The pace picks up dramatically once school is back in session, with crews working steadily until winter weather arrives.
Serving all needs, big or small
Eastman Window Cleaning’s client list includes everything from small bungalows to large lakefront homes, commercial buildings, and new builds in need of post-construction cleaning. Derrick says the variety is part of what keeps the work interesting.
“We’ll tackle just about anything,” he says. “We keep our pricing competitive and make sure our clients are happy with the results.”
Easy booking, local service
For those looking to get on the fall schedule, Derrick recommends starting with the company’s website, eastmanwindowcleaning.com.
“There’s a request-a-quote form right on the site,” he explains. “You can enter what you need done, and we’ll send over a quote. It’s quick and easy.”
Whether it’s sparkling windows, clear eavestroughs, or a festive light display, Eastman Window Cleaning brings professional service and local know-how to every job – helping homeowners enjoy the view without the work.
