Professionals know how to clean windows properly to avoid damaging the glass or frames. They also get the toughest grime and dirt off your windows and frames. Dirt particles can act like sandpaper which can cause scratches and etching on the glass, permanently reducing clarity. Mineral deposits and other grime can become baked-on if not cleaned off the glass regularly, staining the glass and making it appear permanently dirty even after cleaning. The weight of built-up dirt can put stress on window seals, making them more likely to crack or fail. Thorough cleaning removes these particles and helps extend the lifespan of your windows. Professional window cleaning can help extend the lifespan of your windows by preventing damage from harsh chemicals or improper cleaning methods.
Clean windows allow more natural light into your home, which can improve energy efficiency by reducing reliance on artificial lighting. Proper cleaning of the windows and frames also helps protect window seals. This means the HVAC unit does not have to work as hard to maintain the proper temperature in your home. Properly cleaned window seals also protect your home from water damage or mold caused by rain intrusion into the home. Using less artificial light and better climate control helps lower your utility bills.
Allergens, like pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and mold spores, can build up on windows on both the inside and the outside. Mold spores are a common allergen, and they thrive in moist environments. Dirty windows can trap moisture, especially around the frames and sills, creating ideal conditions for mold growth. Cleaning your windows and keeping the area dry helps prevent mold growth and reduces exposure to mold spores. Dust mites are tiny insects that feed on dead skin flakes. While they don't live directly on windows, window blinds and frames can be a haven for dust mites if they're not cleaned regularly. By keeping windows clean and dust-free, you can reduce the overall dust mite population in your home, which can improve allergy symptoms. Professional cleaning can help remove these allergens and improve indoor air quality. Keeping the frames clean on the outside also reduces the quantity of allergens that are carried inside when the windows are open, especially during spring pollen and fall mold seasons. Professional window cleanings remove dirt, dust, grime, algae, mold, your pet’s nose art and your children’s handprints-- brightening the appearance of your home.
The exterior of your home is the first impression for visitors. Dirty windows with streaks, grime, and dust can make your house look dull and neglected. Professional cleaners will leave your windows sparkling, instantly elevating your curb appeal and giving your home a polished look. Windows are meant to connect you with the outside world. Over time, dirt and grime can build up, obscuring your view and making it harder to appreciate the scenery. Professional cleaning ensures crystal-clear windows, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of your surroundings. For businesses, clean windows project a professional image to clients and customers. Overall, professional window cleaning offers a significant aesthetic upgrade for your home, making it look brighter, cleaner, and more inviting from both inside and out.
During the cleaning process, professionals may spot potential problems with your windows including mold growth, pest infestations and general wear and tear not readily apparent during casual inspection. Cracks, chips, or scratches in the glass can be easily identified during cleaning. Signs of failing window seals, like condensation between the panes or drafts near the windows, can also be identified during cleaning. Addressing seal failure promptly can prevent water damage and improve energy efficiency. Rotting, warping, or peeling paint on window frames can be spotted by a keen eye. Early detection allows you to address these issues before they cause more extensive damage. Sticky or malfunctioning window latches, locks, or openers can be identified during cleaning. Cracked, peeling, or missing caulk around windows can be a sign of water infiltration. Professionals can recommend re-caulking to prevent leaks and improve energy efficiency. By keeping an eye out for these potential problems, a professional window cleaner can provide valuable insights into the overall health of your windows and your home's exterior. This allows you to address any issues early on, potentially saving you money and hassle in the long run.
