Window Cleaning at The Regent. Every slider. Every floor.

The Regent stands at 4101 Gulf Shore Boulevard North in Park Shore, Naples. A local real estate site describes it as a 24-story, low-density beachfront tower built by the Lutgert Companies in 1992, with only 37 residences. That site puts living areas at 7,481 square feet and up and says the five penthouses are 12,050 square feet, with four bedrooms plus a den. Its amenity list includes a guarded gated entrance, 24-hour security, a resident manager, private elevators, a beach-side pool, a hot tub, a fitness center, a massage room, a board room, two guest suites, a dog walk area and Park Shore Promenade access.

Residences of 7,481 square feet and up

Homes this large usually carry a lot of glass. A residence of this size can often take a team several hours or more, and a penthouse can take longer. We ask for the unit number, the floor and the number of terraces and large panes, then set the hours and the crew size before the visit so nothing is rushed.

Private elevators, a quiet arrival

The real estate description lists private elevators. Where a private elevator opens near a residence’s front door, we ask the owner or manager how it should be handled, who sends it up and where we can stage cases and poles inside the home. We lay down runners and wipe our wheels before we enter to protect the entry floor.

Salt on a beachfront tower

Both our tower list and the real estate description call The Regent beachfront, and its amenity list includes a beach-side pool and promenade access. Gulf wind carries a fine salt mist, and terrace sliders in towers like this often pick it up first. We rinse the salt off before any wiping so the squeegee does not drag grit across the surface.

Penthouses of 12,050 square feet

The five penthouses are described as 12,050 square feet each, and one current listing shows the same figure. Penthouse homes often have taller panes and long runs of sliders. We bring extension poles for high interior glass, pick a calm morning for the terrace exteriors and walk the home with you first to note any fixed panes that need special care.

Gate, security and a resident manager

The amenity list names a guarded gated entrance, 24-hour security and a resident manager. Where a building has a manager on site, that is usually the office we call before the visit. We send our insurance certificate, crew names and arrival time ahead, ask where to park and follow the manager’s instructions on staging equipment and service routes.

Dog walk area and screens

The amenity list includes a dog walk area. Dogs often leave nose prints and smears on low sliders, and a large dog can bump a screen out of its track. We clean the lower panes by hand, check the screens and tell you about any bent frames so you can have them repaired.

Seasonal closing

Some Naples owners spend the summer away. A cleaning the week you leave takes salt and pollen off before the heat bakes them on, and a visit before you return clears the dust that settled while the home was shut. If no one will be home, ask management how the building handles contractor entry before you book.

Between visits

A soft microfiber cloth and plain water handle most fingerprints on interior glass. Avoid ammonia sprays on tinted or coated panes, and never scrape dried salt with a blade. Rinsing terrace glass with fresh water after a windy day often slows the haze between professional cleanings.

Shared spaces and the association

The pool area, board room, fitness center, massage room and guest suites are shared spaces, and in most Naples condos the association arranges the cleaning of common-area glass. We work inside your residence and on the terrace glass we can safely reach. If the board wants a quote for common areas, management can contact us separately.

What a Regent visit covers

Every interior pane and slider, the outside of each terrace slider and any railing glass we can reach safely, tracks vacuumed and wiped, sills and frames, and screens on request. Glass that needs rope access or a swing stage stays with the association’s high-rise contractor.
