The complete window cleaning guide

What actually goes into a streak-free window

A clean window is more than a wiped-down pane of glass. It's the right tool for the height and access, a process for hard water and mineral deposits, and a technique that leaves zero streaks in direct sunlight, not just from across the room.

Click each option to see exactly what's covered, since "window cleaning" can mean different things depending on what you book.

Exterior only

The outside of every accessible window is cleaned using purified water-fed pole equipment for upper floors and traditional squeegee tools at ground level. This covers the side of the glass exposed to rain, pollen, dust, and hard water spray from sprinklers, which is usually the dirtier side.

Most exterior-only visits don't require you to be home, since our technicians work entirely from outside the house.

Interior & exterior

Everything in exterior-only, plus hand-cleaned interior glass with a streak-free finish. We work carefully around furniture, blinds, and flooring, and this level requires scheduling a time when someone can provide interior access.

Most homeowners choosing between the two options find this is where the visible difference is biggest, since interior glass collects fingerprints, cooking residue, and dust that exterior-only cleaning never touches.

Screens, sills & tracks

Available as an optional add-on for an additional charge, this isn't part of a standard visit. Screens are removed, cleaned to clear out dust and debris trapped in the mesh, and reinstalled, and sills and tracks are cleared of loose dirt and debris. Just let us know when you book if you'd like it added, and we'll quote it along with your window cleaning.

Hard water & glass care

Why some spots don't come off with a squeegee

What causes those cloudy white spots on my windows?+
Hard water spots come from mineral-rich water, often sprinkler overspray, drying directly on glass in the sun. As the water evaporates, it leaves calcium and other minerals behind, and repeated exposure lets those deposits build up and etch into the glass surface over time. Fresh hard water spotting typically comes off with our standard cleaning process. Deposits that have baked into the glass over multiple seasons are more stubborn and may need a dedicated mineral-removal treatment beyond a standard clean, which we're happy to look at and discuss on site.
What about the window tracks and sills?+
Clearing loose dirt, dead insects, and debris from sills and tracks isn't included in a standard visit, but it's available as an optional add-on for an additional charge. It's a maintenance step most homeowners never do themselves since it involves getting into narrow, awkward channels, and it makes a visible difference and helps windows and screens slide more smoothly. Just ask when you book if you'd like it added.
Safety & equipment

Professional equipment, careful technique

Our technicians use purified water-fed poles for reaching upper-story windows safely from the ground, without a ladder at height, along with traditional squeegee tools for interior and ground-level glass. The purified water leaves no mineral residue behind as it dries, which is part of why the finish stays streak-free rather than just looking clean when wet. Every job is scoped around your home's specific window types and access before we start.

Maintenance schedules

How often windows should actually be cleaned

Twice a year

Most homes look their best with exterior cleaning in spring and fall, bracketing the seasons with the most pollen and storm debris.

Near sprinklers

Windows in the direct path of sprinkler overspray benefit from more frequent attention to prevent hard water buildup.

Clean windows are one of the cheapest, highest-impact details before listing photos or a showing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is screen cleaning included with a standard visit?+
Not by default. Screen cleaning, along with clearing sills and tracks, is available as an optional add-on for an additional charge, just ask when you book.
Do you clean windows inside the home too?+
Yes, we offer both interior and exterior window cleaning, and many customers book both at once.
Can you reach second-story windows?+
Yes, we use purified water-fed pole equipment to safely clean upper-story exterior windows from the ground, without a technician on a ladder at height.
Can you remove hard water stains from my windows?+
Light to moderate hard water spotting typically comes off with our standard cleaning process. Deeply etched mineral deposits may require a specialized mineral-removal treatment, which we can discuss on site.
Do I need to be home for the service?+
Exterior-only cleaning usually doesn't require you to be home. If interior windows are included, we'll schedule a time that works for you.
