Window Washing at a 2-story house in Grayslake on North Oak Avenue. 60 windows cleaned. Completed by our Round Lake team.
Grayslake sits far enough inland that it misses the lake-effect grit Lake County gets closer to shore, but a two-story house with sixty double-hung windows still accumulates a season's worth of dust, pollen, and oxidized screen residue that doesn't come off on its own. This one needed a full inside-and-out clean, and with thirty-six screens in the mix, it was a thorough day's work from the start.
We moved through the house methodically — screens off first, washed and set aside, then frames and tracks wiped down before the glass itself. Double-hungs lend themselves to a clean rhythm: tilt the sash, work the interior panes, reset, then work the exterior in sequence. Sixty windows across two stories takes time done right, and we gave it that time. Tracks on older double-hungs collect enough compacted debris to warrant a proper wipe rather than a pass, so we didn't skip that step. Invoice went out the same day the job wrapped.

Common questions from Grayslake homeowners researching Window Washing.
This 60-window job on a 2-story home in Grayslake ran $820, which included both interior and exterior cleaning plus 36 screens. For a 2-story house in the Chicago North Shore area, full-service window washing typically falls between $300 and $900 depending on window count, accessibility, and whether screens are included.
A job this size — 60 double-hung windows cleaned inside and out on a 2-story home — generally takes a crew most of a half-day, usually in the range of 4 to 6 hours. Factors like screen removal and reinstallation, interior detailing, and home layout all affect the total time on site.
On this project, we cleaned all 60 double-hung windows inside and out, wiped down frames and sills, and cleaned all 36 screens. Interior work includes carefully moving around furniture and leaving each pane streak-free, while exterior work covers any buildup from weather, pollen, and hard water.
We clean screens as part of our full-service jobs — on this home we washed all 36 screens, removing them, scrubbing both sides, and reinstalling them before we left. If your screens are torn or heavily damaged, we'll flag that during the job so you know what needs replacing. For a quote, call our Round Lake team at (847) 807-1455.
