Window Washing at a 1-story house in Highland Park on Lily Court. 47 windows cleaned. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Forty-seven windows on a one-story Highland Park home, and nearly every pane had buildup that a squeegee alone wasn't going to touch. The kind of accumulation that comes from seasons of mineral deposits and oxidized grime bonding to the glass — common enough on homes tucked under the mature tree canopy that runs through this part of the North Shore. The job called for exterior-only service, tracks and frames included.
Our technician was on-site at eight in the morning and got straight to work. The scraping was the dominant task — window after window needed a blade run across it before any real cleaning could begin. Frames and tracks were wiped down as each section was finished, keeping the work organized and methodical. Three hours start to finish for all forty-seven windows, exterior glass cleared down to the surface, nothing left sitting.

Common questions from Highland Park homeowners researching Window Washing.
For a 1-story home in Highland Park, exterior-only window washing typically runs between $200 and $600 depending on window count and accessibility. This 47-window job came in at $515, which is right in line with what homeowners in the area can expect for a larger single-story house.
A 1-story home with exterior-only service generally moves quickly since there's no need to set up inside or move furniture. A job this size — 47 windows — typically wraps up in 3 to 5 hours with an experienced crew working efficiently.
Exterior-only service covers the full outside surface of every window, including the glass and frames, removing dirt, water spots, and grime buildup. Sills are wiped down as part of the process, but interior glass and interior sills are not touched — making it a great option when homeowners want a fast refresh without any inside access needed.
Screens are not part of a standard exterior window wash — they're removed or left in place depending on the setup, but deep screen cleaning is a separate add-on service. If your screens have significant buildup, it's worth asking about adding that on when you book so the crew can plan accordingly. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
