Window Washing at a 2-story house in Evanston on Dobson Street. 65 windows cleaned. Completed by our Chicago team.
— Chicago crew
Evanston's older residential blocks hold a lot of glass. The two-story house we serviced here had 65 double-hung windows spread across both floors, the kind of count that accumulates quietly in homes built when rooms were meant to have light from multiple directions. Double-hungs collect grime differently than fixed panes — the sash rails and the channel between them trap dust and oxidized screen residue in ways that don't always show until you're close. This was an interior and exterior clean, so we came in prepared for a full day.
We worked through all 65 windows inside and out, pulling 35 screens and running them through a wash before setting them aside to dry while we moved through the frames. Tracks and frames got wiped down on each unit — the kind of detail that matters with double-hungs, where debris in the channel works against smooth operation over time. The rhythm of the day was methodical: exterior sash first, then interior, screens back in as we finished each section. Invoice sent when the job was done.

Common questions from Evanston homeowners researching Window Washing.
For a 2-story house in Evanston, pricing typically runs between $300 and $600 for a standard job, but larger homes push that higher. This 65-window project, cleaned inside and out with 35 screens included, came to $1,050 — a fair benchmark for a home of this size in the area.
A job this size — 65 double-hung windows cleaned on both sides plus 35 screens — generally takes a crew most of a full day to complete properly. Rushing a project like this leads to streaks and missed spots, so we schedule enough time to do it right.
On this job we cleaned all 65 double-hung windows inside and out, wiped down frames and sills, and washed all 35 screens. Interior cleaning covers the full glass surface and tracks, while exterior work includes removing dirt, oxidation, and any built-up grime from the outside pane.
Yes, exterior second-story windows are a standard part of what we do on 2-story homes. We use water-fed poles and ladders as needed to reach upper-level glass safely, so no window gets skipped just because it's harder to reach. For a quote, call our Chicago team at (773) 377-4600.
