Window cleaning
Are you debating on weather to clean windows yourself or to call a professional?
Here are some tips that will help you make the right choice.
1. Saving time.
Trying to clean your windows by yourself is a very time consuming job, according to Nikolay Ozerkov, owner of Oz Wash Cleaning in Portland Oregon.
Nikolay says “I can finish a window cleaning job that would take a homeowner at least 6 hours to finish in half the time. “When you have the right tools like squeegees, window cleaning mops, lint free towels and ladders it makes it that much easier to reach windows that are extremely high in order to get the job done right.”
2. Spotting problems that you otherwise would have not noticed
When a Professional window cleaner works on your windows they pay special attention to details of the windows that they work on. Helping prevent more serious problems by being addressed promptly to the home owner.
3. Helping remove insects and debris.
Bees, hornets and other insects like to make themselves at home around windows and putting the homeowner at risk if the make it into the home especially if they have an allergic reaction to bee stings.
“When the window cleaner is up-close to the window, they have the opportunity to clean up the window sills, window frames and even sometimes spraying down hornets nests that might be on or around the window”. Nikolay says.
4. Cleaning your windows can extend their life!
With time your aluminum screens on your windows start to degrade in quality and etch a pattern of aluminum deposits on your window. Which makes your window look unattractive and in the end it makes your window more prone to cracking because of the etching deposits.
When a professional comes out they can gently clean your windows with steal wool (grade 0000) which has the strength to take the etching off yet is gentle enough to keep your window safe and above all clean and smooth.
5. Having the right tools for the job
With a professional you can be insured that your windows will be cleaned right the first time without damaging your windows.
Windows like stained glass or tinted glass can get clouded over time if you are cleaning them with ammonia based cleaners without even knowing it. Causing irreplaceable damage to your window.
With a professional they provide the right tools to get the job done effectively. With ladders, teliscoping window cleaning wands, which help get windows that are out of reach.
