Window Washing at a 2-story house in Glencoe on Bluff Road. 61 windows cleaned. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Glencoe's older residential streets tend toward deep lots and mature canopy, and the French-style windows on this two-story house had accumulated the kind of layered grime that builds up when oak shade slows the drying cycle and keeps moisture on the glass. Sixty-one windows across two floors, plus eight skylights and three window wells — a full day's work before we even factored in the divided-light grids that come with French-style sashes. The customer wanted both interior and exterior cleaned, so we planned accordingly and arrived at eight in the morning.
We moved methodically through the house, working the exterior panes first while the light was still angled low enough to catch streaks. The French windows required attention at each muntin intersection — soap and water alone won't tell you what you've missed until the glass dries, so we took our time wiping the grid sections clean before squeegeeing the field. The three window wells came next, cleared of settled debris, followed by the eight skylights. Interior work filled the afternoon, room by room, matching the pace we'd set outside. We wrapped at four, with the invoice sent the same day. Tracks, frames, and screens were flagged as optional add-ons available if the customer wants to expand the scope on a future visit.
Crew on this job
Timothy
Timothy may be our youngest technician, but don’t let that fool you. He’s experienced, professional, courteous, and already knows his way around the job like a seasoned pro. He’s also a promising DJ, so there’s a good chance he can fix the problem and recommend a solid playlist while he’s at it. Everyone loves Timothy because he’s easy to talk to, always upbeat, and genuinely enjoys meeting people. He also has a strange love for Wisconsin, which we still haven’t fully figured out - but nobody’s perfect.

Common questions from Glencoe homeowners researching Window Washing.
This 61-window job in Glencoe ran $707, which works out to roughly $11–12 per window for a full interior and exterior clean on a two-story home. For most 2-story houses in the area, expect to pay somewhere between $350 and $800 depending on window count, style, and any specialty glass like skylights.
A job this size — 61 windows including 8 skylights and French-style panes cleaned inside and out — typically runs a full day for a two-person crew. The divided lites on French-style windows require extra detailing on each pane, so they take noticeably longer than standard single-pane windows.
On this project we cleaned all 61 windows fully interior and exterior, including the 8 skylights and every divided lite on the French-style frames. We wipe down sills and frames as part of the process, so the finished result is clean glass and a tidy surround, not just a squeegeed pane.
We handle skylights and elevated windows regularly — this house had 8 skylights that were cleaned as part of the same visit, accessed safely with the right ladders and equipment. There's no need to hire a separate contractor for hard-to-reach glass. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
