There's a big difference between windows that are technically there and windows that actually do their job. Dirty glass and grimy screens block more light than most homeowners realize - until they're cleaned. That's the kind of difference we wrapped up on a couple of homes in East Grand Rapids recently.

Both homes had a solid mix of first and second floor windows, including some harder-to-reach spots. We cleaned the exterior glass and screens on each one. No shortcuts. Every pane, every screen, handled the same way.

Clean windows aren't just about appearance. More natural light getting into your home changes how a room feels - it's one of the cheapest ways to make the inside of your house feel brighter and more open without touching a thing inside. Screens matter too. A dirty, clogged screen cuts down on airflow and makes everything look dull even when the glass underneath is clean.

Homes in this area are surrounded by mature trees, and that means pollen, sap, and debris land on windows all season long. It builds up gradually, so you almost don't notice it happening - until it's cleaned off and you can actually see the difference.

Exterior window cleaning is one of those services that's easy to put off but hard to ignore once it's done. If your windows and screens are overdue, we're happy to take a look and get you a free quote.
