We clean balconies for owners and for the association, stack by stack, and neighbors on the same floor or stack can book together. $249Balcony Starting Price6–12 moBalcony Cycle964–1,173Unit Size (sq ft) ## 🏊 What Builds Up on a South Seas Balcony Salt Grit · Ceiling Mildew · Pitting Rails and sliders get a gritty salt film within weeks. Left alone, salt on aluminum rails leads to pitting that no cleaning can reverse. The ceilings above each balcony stay shaded and grow mildew. That mildew drips dark streaks onto the balcony floor below, so a dirty ceiling makes the floor look dirty too. On a building from about 1980, balcony coatings and paint are older. A soft wash at low pressure cleans without driving water into cracks or lifting coatings. Because every unit has the same plan, owner work is quick to price, and a stack of balconies can be done in one visit with shared setup. South Seas has gated security, a heated pool, fitness center, tennis and pickleball, an activity room and a BBQ area, so there is always activity on the grounds. Balcony work is scheduled with management so rinse water from upper floors never falls on residents or walkways below. **Tower balconies and mid-rise balconies.** The complex mixes towers of up to 19 stories with mid-rise buildings, and the balconies are not all alike. A tower unit listed on the west side has a straight open balcony looking over the Gulf, the lagoon and the pool. A fifth-floor corner unit in South Seas North has a large wraparound balcony that catches both sunrise and sunset. A wraparound has more floor, more rail and two different exposures, so it takes longer and is priced on its own. Tell us your building and unit number and we will know which layout to plan for. **Gulf side and bay side.** West-facing balconies take the strongest salt spray and the hottest afternoon sun, which bakes salt onto the glass in hard white spots. Balconies looking east over the bay and the boat dock get less salt but more humidity and more birds, and the droppings stain rails and floors if they sit. We pre-treat each of those by side instead of using one product everywhere. **Impact sliders need their tracks cleared.** Listings at South Seas describe impact-resistant sliding windows and high-impact doors. Those doors are heavy, and they rely on clear tracks and open weep holes to drain rainwater out instead of into the unit. Salt crust and beach sand pack those channels tight. On every visit we vacuum the slider tracks, flush the weep holes with a small amount of water and check that it drains out. Owners who skip this step often find water on the tile after the first big summer storm. **Block, concrete and stucco.** The buildings are block and concrete with a stucco finish. Painted stucco on balcony walls and ceilings turns chalky in the sun and holds mildew in its texture. A pressure wand can scar it and push water into hairline cracks, so we soft wash those surfaces and let the cleaner do the work. If we find hollow-sounding spots, rust stains bleeding through the paint or loose rail posts, we photograph them for you and the manager instead of washing over them. **Furnished units and monthly renters.** Many South Seas units are sold furnished, and at least some listings note that monthly rentals are permitted. When a unit changes hands from one renter to the next, the balcony is often the part nobody thought to clean. We can book a visit between renters, wipe down the balcony furniture as well as the rails and glass, and send photos so you know the unit is ready. **Inspections on a 1980 building.** Florida’s milestone inspection law covers condo buildings three stories or taller once they pass 30 years, or 25 where the local building official sets it, and then every ten years after. South Seas is well past that age. A balcony that has been cleaned lets the engineer see the slab, the ceiling and the rail anchors clearly. **After a storm passes.** A tropical storm or a strong winter front can coat every balcony on the Gulf side with salt and sand in a single night. That layer is wet and sticky at first, then dries hard on the glass and rails. A rinse in the first week or two after the weather clears takes far less work than waiting for the next scheduled cleaning. We keep a short list of owners who want a call after big weather, and we work through their balconies building by building once the grounds are clear. **A rolling plan for the association.** With 430 units spread across towers and mid-rise buildings, no board wants every balcony done in one week. We take one building at a time, starting with whichever stack the manager picks, and move on only when it is finished and recorded. Owners in that building get notice a few days ahead. **Pricing.** Balconies under 800 square feet start from $249. Rails that have gone chalky or show salt pitting can take an oxidation treatment for an added $75 to $150. Stacks booked together are quoted per stack, and the association can have every balcony in a building priced as one program.
