Window Washing at a 1-story house in Glenview on Larkdale Drive. 19 windows cleaned. Completed by our Northbrook team.
Single-story ranch homes in Glenview tend to accumulate a particular kind of grime — fine road dust mixing with whatever the season's trees have dropped, settling into the frames and lower sashes where it doesn't get rinsed off easily. This house had nineteen double-hung windows running around the exterior, and the customer wanted the outside glass cleaned along with the frames wiped down — a practical, thorough scope for a house at this scale.
Our crew worked around the perimeter, taking each double-hung in turn — glass first, then the frames and exterior sash edges wiped clean before moving on. With single-story access, the pace stayed steady throughout the day, no repositioning of equipment required between sections. Nineteen windows, every frame attended to, exterior only as specified. The work moved efficiently, and the invoice went out once the job was wrapped.

Common questions from Glenview homeowners researching Window Washing.
Exterior-only window washing on a 1-story home in Glenview typically runs between $150 and $250 depending on window count and accessibility. This 19-window job came in at $177, which is right in line with what most single-story homes in the area cost. Interior-and-exterior service adds roughly 40–60% to that price.
A 1-story home with around 19 windows usually takes a single technician 1.5 to 2.5 hours for an exterior-only wash. Double hung windows are straightforward to work with from the outside, which keeps the job moving efficiently. Larger homes or those with heavy buildup can push that time longer.
On an out-only job like this one, we clean every exterior glass surface, wipe down the frames and sills, and remove any water spots, dirt, or oxidation buildup. Screens are left in place since we're not doing interior access, so the focus stays entirely on getting the glass clear from the outside. We work on all standard double hung windows without needing to enter the home.
On single-story homes, most windows are reachable from the ground or with a short ladder, so height is rarely an issue. We carry the right equipment to safely reach any window on a 1-story structure without risking damage to landscaping or siding. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
