Understanding frequency, techniques, and when to call professionals.
Clean windows improve curb appeal, let in more natural light, and help you spot potential problems like seal failures or frame damage. Here's what you should know about keeping your windows clean.
Residential: Most homes benefit from professional cleaning 2-4 times per year. Dusty desert conditions may require more frequent cleaning. Commercial: Storefronts typically need monthly or bi-weekly service to maintain appearance.
Exterior windows collect dust, pollen, and hard water spots much faster than interiors. You may need exterior cleaning more frequently than interior. Interior windows mainly need cleaning for fingerprints and dust.
Dirty screens block airflow and cast shadows on clean windows. We recommend screen cleaning at least once a year, typically in spring before you open windows for fresh air.
Phoenix tap water leaves mineral deposits on windows from sprinklers or rain runoff. These require specialized treatment—regular cleaning won't remove them once they've etched the glass.
Second-story windows and hard-to-reach areas are dangerous to clean yourself. Professional window cleaners have proper equipment, insurance, and training to work safely at heights.
Avoid cleaning in direct hot sun—cleaning solution dries too fast and leaves streaks. Overcast days or early morning work best. In Phoenix, fall and winter provide ideal cleaning conditions.
Outside window cleaning for homes. Includes frames and sills.
Inside window cleaning. Safe for all floor levels.
Remove screens, clean both sides, reinstall properly.
Specialized treatment for mineral deposits and etching.
Regular service for retail and office buildings.
Remove paint, stickers, and construction debris from new windows.
Residential: Typically priced per window (inside and outside count as one unit) or by home size. Average 2,000 sq ft home with 20 windows runs $150-$250 for inside and outside.
Hard Water Treatment: Requires additional time and materials. Usually adds $3-$8 per affected window depending on severity.
Commercial: Usually priced by square footage or number of panes. Monthly service contracts offer better rates than one-time cleaning.

Clean windows significantly improve showing appearance and help buyers see rooms as brighter and more inviting.
After winter dust and before you open windows for fresh air. Good time to clean screens too.
Construction leaves film, paint overspray, and debris that requires professional removal.
If you notice cloudy spots that won't wipe away, you need professional hard water treatment before etching becomes permanent.
Two-story homes, skylights, and cathedral windows require proper equipment and safety training.
Set up quarterly or bi-annual service to keep windows consistently clean without thinking about it.
