Window Washing at a 2-story house in Elk Grove Village on New York Lane. 31 windows cleaned. Completed by our Arlington Heights team.
Elk Grove Village sits in the middle of a dense suburban grid where truck and highway traffic leaves a particular kind of grime on anything facing the street — exhaust residue and road dust that works into frame joints and track channels over months. This two-story house had accumulated exactly that: by the time our crew arrived at eight in the morning, the frames were carrying a heavy buildup that had gone well past what a standard glass clean would address on its own.
We started with the frames and tracks before touching the glass, clearing out the compacted grime from the channels and wiping down each frame so the panes had a clean surround to come back to. With 31 windows to cover across two floors, working in and out, the frame work added time but made the difference in how the finished glass read against its surround. Every window got the full treatment — track vacuumed and wiped, frame cleaned, glass squeegeed inside and out. The job closed out the same day, invoice sent once the crew cleared the property.

Common questions from Elk Grove Village homeowners researching Window Washing.
For this 2-story house with 31 windows cleaned inside and out, the job came to $275. In the Elk Grove Village area, full-service residential window cleaning on a similarly sized home typically runs between $200 and $350 depending on window count, accessibility, and whether you need interior cleaning included.
A 31-window inside-and-out job on a 2-story home generally takes a crew 3 to 4 hours to complete. Factors like hard water buildup, screen removal, or difficult upper-floor access can add some time, but most single-family homes are wrapped up in a half-day visit.
On this job, every one of the 31 windows was cleaned on both the interior and exterior glass surfaces, with frames and sills wiped down as part of the process. Interior cleaning means we work inside each room to remove dust, smudges, and grime, while exterior cleaning tackles weather stains, oxidation, and environmental buildup on the outside panes.
Yes, upper-floor windows are a standard part of what we do on 2-story homes — this Elk Grove Village project included all 31 windows across both levels. We use extension equipment and ladders as needed to reach second-story glass safely without leaving any windows behind. For a quote, call our Arlington Heights team at (847) 807-1454.
