Erie’s Specialist Here!
Handling the Silica Dust and High-Plains Climate That Standard Cleaners Overlook.
If you’ve recently moved into one of Erie’s beautiful new developments like Colliers Hill or Vista Ridge, you’ve likely noticed a frustrating reality: no matter how much you wipe, a fine, white film seems to settle on your surfaces within hours.
This seems like just ‘dust.’
In Erie, we deal with a high concentration of Silica Construction Dust and alkaline soil. As a third-generation cleaner, I’ve refined my process specifically for this environment. Standard cleaning, what I call ‘friction cleaning’, actually risks scratching your brand-new luxury vinyl plank (LVP) floors and quartz countertops by grinding that jagged silica into the finish.
I use a more advanced approach: Suspension Chemistry to lift the grit away safely and Microbial Extraction to pull those airborne particulates out of your home for good.
I’ve lived and worked through the evolution of Colorado’s front range. I know that an Erie home requires a different chemical balance than a historic home in Boulder. The water hardness here affects your glass and fixtures differently, and the wind patterns across the plains mean your HVAC system is constantly fighting to keep the air clear.
I bring a precision-based method to my Erie neighbors. I won’t be offended if you call it a ‘surface clean’, because I know that I perform a technical reset of your space. By shifting away from harsh, soapy residues that act like a ‘sticky magnet’ for trail dust, I ensure your home stays cleaner, longer, and that your air is actually healthy to breathe.
The Erie Cleaning Challenge: Silica Dust and Alkaline Soil
- Silica Dust: Abrasive particles that scratch surfaces.
- Alkaline Soil: Contributes to stubborn, recurring residue.
- Standard Cleaning: Ineffective and potentially damaging in Erie.
PRO TIP
If you are in a home less than two years old, your HVAC filters are likely working double-time to catch drywall particulates. I recommend a MERV-11 filter changed every 30 days during the first year to protect your respiratory health.
