If you’ve ever stood in front of your windows, embarrassed by the streaks and grime, you're in the right place. Clean windows improve the appearance of your home or business and also enhance natural light, giving any space a brighter, more welcoming atmosphere. If your glass is dirty and you're looking for a solution, read on!
At Rusty’s Window Cleaning, we offer professional window cleaning services for both residential and commercial properties in the Lake Stevens, WA area, as well as from Tacoma to Bellingham. That said, we know that sometimes you want to roll up your sleeves and tackle the job yourself. Don’t worry! In this article, we’ll share some easy window cleaning tips that will make your windows shine,as well as explain why professional window cleaning is worth the investment.
When it comes to window cleaning, timing is everything. If you clean your windows on a sunny day, the heat can cause the cleaning solution to dry too quickly, leaving streaks behind. For the best results, opt for a cloudy day or early morning when the temperatures are cooler.
To get started, you’ll need a few basic supplies. Here’s a list of what you’ll need for effective window cleaning:
If you don’t have a commercial window cleaner handy, you can easily make your own with dish soap and water. Just add a small amount of dish soap to your bucket of warm water. The soapy solution will break down grease and dirt, making it easier to clean your windows.
If your windows have more stubborn grime or hard water stains, consider using a vinegar solution (1 part vinegar to 10 parts water). Vinegar is a natural and effective solution for removing mineral deposits and can leave your windows sparkling clean.
When using a squeegee, technique is everything. Start at the top corner of the window and pull it downward in a straight line. Wipe the blade with a clean cloth after each pass to avoid spreading dirt or streaks. For larger windows, you may need to make multiple strokes to cover the entire surface. For the best results, work quickly, ensuring that the solution doesn't dry on the glass before you’ve finished cleaning.
After you’ve squeegeed your windows, dry the edges with a microfiber cloth to remove any excess water and prevent streaks. Buffing with a clean, dry cloth will give the glass that perfect, gleaming finish you’re aiming for.
Don’t forget about the window frames and screens! Use a damp cloth to wipe down the frames and remove dust and dirt. If your screens need cleaning, gently scrub them with a soft brush and soapy water before rinsing them off with a hose.
Window cleaning can sometimes involve working from heights, especially for second-story windows. Make sure to use a stable ladder and never lean too far over the edge. If your windows are difficult to reach, it may be safer and more efficient to call in the professionals.
