When you get a window glass replacement in your Woodside home, it may become all too apparent that your windows need to be washed!
In a perfect world, your windows would be washed twice a year, but let’s be honest: window washing isn’t a job anyone looks forward to! Read our tips for getting the job done like a pro, whether you have a dozen dirty windows or a just a few hiding under iron window guards in your Bronx apartment.
One thing that trips homeowners up is that they use spray cleaner, paper towels or newspapers—and a whole lot of elbow grease. For a more effective method, do like the pros do and use a squeegee. If you have large picture windows, use a squirt of dishwashing liquid in a bucket of warm water with a strip applicator. When wiping clean with your squeegee, start at the top left and pull it in a reverse-S pattern, making sure to wipe the squeegee with a rag at the end of each stroke. If you have a divided-light window, use a squeegee that fits the panes. If you don’t have one, use a hacksaw to cut one to size.
