Window Washing at a 2-story house in Arlington Heights on North Chestnut Avenue. 47 windows cleaned. Completed by our Arlington Heights team.
— Arlington Heights crew
French-style windows with divided-light bars are slower work than plain glass — the muntin grid traps grime in every intersection, and a squeegee only gets you so far before the detailing rags come out. That was the defining challenge at this two-story home in Arlington Heights, where our crew arrived at three in the afternoon to tackle a full interior and exterior clean across 47 windows. The house carried the kind of accumulated film that builds up on a property with this much divided glazing, each bar holding its own line of residue that the surrounding glass alone wouldn't reveal.
We moved through the home methodically, working the French-style sashes section by section — frame wipe, careful bar work with a cloth, then the squeegee on the broader panes. The bars slowed the pace noticeably, but we didn't rush them. Forty screens came off, went through a wash, and went back in place before we closed out each room. Both floors were completed before we wrapped for the evening, invoice sent to the customer once the last screen was set.

Common questions from Arlington Heights homeowners researching Window Washing.
This 47-window job on a 2-story home in Arlington Heights ran $474, which works out to roughly $10 per window including both interior and exterior cleaning plus 40 screens. For most 2-story houses in the Arlington Heights area, full-service window washing typically falls in the $300–$550 range depending on window count, type, and condition.
A job this size — 47 windows cleaned inside and out on a 2-story home — generally takes a crew around 4 to 6 hours to complete properly. French-style windows have more panes and dividers than standard windows, so they require extra time to detail each section without leaving streaks.
On this project we cleaned all 47 windows interior and exterior, scrubbing frames and sills and detailing every pane of the French-style windows. We also washed all 40 screens — removing them, rinsing them down, and reinstalling them — so the finished result was clean glass with nothing blocking the view.
Screen cleaning is part of what we do — on this job we handled all 40 screens along with the full interior and exterior window wash. We remove each screen, wash it separately, and put it back so you're not left with clean glass behind a dusty, grimy screen. For a quote, call our Arlington Heights team at (847) 807-1454.
