Window Washing at a 1-story house in Chicago on North Kildare Avenue. 17 windows cleaned. Completed by our Chicago team.
A single-story Chicago bungalow with 17 windows, 16 storm panels, and 15 screens is a full morning's work done right. The house sits in a part of the city where older brick stock and mature street trees mean frames collect a steady film of city grit and organic debris through the warmer months. The customer had scheduled a full inside-and-out clean, and that's exactly what the job required.
Our technician was on-site at eight in the morning and worked through the service methodically — exterior glass, interior glass, storm windows pulled and cleaned, screens washed and reset, tracks vacuumed and wiped, frames wiped down. No corners cut on the detail work. With 16 storm panels in the rotation alongside the primary windows, the sequencing mattered: pull, clean, set aside, work the glass, reinstall. He wrapped the full job in three hours, everything back in place before late morning.

Common questions from Chicago homeowners researching Window Washing.
For a single-story home with full interior and exterior cleaning, storm windows, and screens, expect to pay in the $300–$450 range in the Chicago area. This particular 17-window job with 15 screens and 16 storm windows came out to $410. The more add-ons like storms and screens, the closer you'll land toward the higher end of that range.
A single-story home of this scope — 17 windows cleaned inside and out, plus screens and storm windows — typically runs 2 to 3 hours with a trained crew. Storm windows add handling time since each one needs to be removed, cleaned on both sides, and reinstalled. Straightforward exterior-only jobs on a similar home would finish closer to 90 minutes.
On this job, every window got cleaned on both the inside and outside glass surfaces, all 15 screens were removed and washed, and all 16 storm windows were taken out, cleaned, and put back. Tracks and sills get wiped down as part of the process, so the finished result is a complete clean rather than just the glass itself.
On a single-story house, most windows are reachable by hand or with a short extension, but we carry the tools needed for any window that sits above a porch roof, in a stairwell, or over a garage. No window on a 1-story home should require you to go without cleaning it due to access. For a quote, call our Chicago team at (773) 377-4600.
