Window Washing at a 1-story house in Harwood Heights on West Lawrence Avenue. 15 windows cleaned. Completed by our Chicago team.
— Chicago crew
Harwood Heights sits in a quiet, dense pocket of northwest Cook County where the housing stock runs mostly to compact brick ranches built in the postwar decades. This one-story home was no different — a modest footprint, fifteen windows, and the kind of exterior grime that accumulates through a full Midwest season. The customer needed an outside-only clean, a straightforward scope that suited the property well.
We arrived at ten in the morning and worked through the exterior methodically, running each window through a full squeegee pass and wiping down the frames at no extra charge. Tracks got the same attention — a quick wipe to clear out whatever the season had pushed in. With fifteen windows on a single story, the job moved at a steady pace and we were finished by eleven-twenty. Invoice came to $140, settled before we left the property.

Common questions from Harwood Heights homeowners researching Window Washing.
Exterior-only window cleaning on a 1-story home in Harwood Heights typically runs between $120 and $180, depending on the number of windows and their condition. This 15-window job came in at $140, which is right in line with what most single-story homes in the Chicago suburbs run for an outside-only wash.
A 15-window exterior clean on a single-story home generally takes one to two hours for a trained crew. The straightforward roofline and ground-level access on 1-story properties keep the job efficient and minimize setup time.
An outside-only wash covers the full exterior glass surface of each window, removing dirt, water spots, oxidation, and grime using professional squeegees and cleaning solution. Frames and sills on the exterior are wiped down as part of the process, so the finished result looks clean edge to edge, not just on the glass.
Screen cleaning is not included in a standard exterior-only service, since screens are typically removed or left in place without full cleaning during an outside wash. If you want screens cleaned, we can add that as an upgrade when we're on-site — just mention it when you book. For a quote, call our Chicago team at (773) 377-4600.
