Interesting and informative tips on window cleaning:
Choose the Right Time: Clean windows on a cloudy day or when the windows are not in direct sunlight to prevent streaks caused by the cleaning solution drying too quickly.
Gather Supplies: Use a squeegee, microfiber cloths, a bucket, and a good-quality window cleaning solution.
Dust First: Remove dust and cobwebs from the window frame and sill with a dry cloth or vacuum before applying any liquid.
Use a Squeegee: Apply the cleaning solution with a sponge or cloth, then use a squeegee to remove it. Start at the top and work your way down in a reverse-S pattern, wiping the squeegee blade with a clean cloth after each pass.
Microfiber Cloths: Use microfiber cloths to wipe any remaining moisture and to wipe down the glass for a streak-free finish.
Clean Both Sides: Don’t forget to clean the windows' inside and outside for the best results.
Tackle Tough Spots: For stubborn spots like bird droppings or sap, let the cleaning solution sit for a few minutes before scrubbing gently with a non-abrasive pad.
Regular Maintenance: Clean windows regularly to prevent the buildup of dirt and grime, which can make cleaning more difficult over time. We suggest every 6 months.
Safety First: If cleaning windows on upper floors, use a stable ladder or consider hiring a professional to avoid accidents.
Check Weather Stripping: While cleaning, inspect the weather stripping and seals around the windows for any damage or wear.
