Window Washing at a 2-story house in Lake in the Hills on Coyote Lakes Circle. 38 windows cleaned. Completed by our Barrington team.
Lake in the Hills sits in that stretch of McHenry County where the subdivisions spread wide and the lots hold enough mature trees to keep debris accumulating through every season. This two-story house had 38 windows that needed exterior-only attention, along with two window wells that had collected a serious amount of grime — the kind of buildup that takes more than a single pass to cut through.
We worked through all 38 windows on the outside, wiping down every frame and track as we went rather than leaving them for a second sweep. The window wells were the real challenge of the day — both were heavily fouled, packed with sediment and organic debris that had settled in over time. We stayed with them until the wells were cleared out properly. Tracks were vacuumed and wiped, frames got a thorough wipe-down on each unit, and the exterior glass was squeegeed clean across both floors before we called the job done.

Common questions from Lake in the Hills homeowners researching Window Washing.
For a 2-story house with 38 windows cleaned on the exterior, this project came in at $280, which is right in line with typical pricing for the area. Most exterior-only window cleaning jobs on similarly sized homes in the Chicago northwest suburbs run between $200 and $350 depending on window count and accessibility. Storm windows, screens, or interior cleaning would add to that total.
A 38-window exterior job on a 2-story home generally takes a crew about 2 to 3 hours from setup to finish. Factors like window height, landscaping around the foundation, and how much buildup is on the glass can push that time up or down slightly.
Exterior-only service covers washing and squeegee-finishing every outside pane, wiping down frames and sills, and removing water spots, dirt, and oxidation from the glass surface. Screens and interior glass are not part of this scope, though both can be added if needed.
Yes — second-story windows are a standard part of what we do on 2-story homes, and this Lake in the Hills job included all upper-level exterior panes. We use water-fed poles and ladders as needed to reach elevated windows without putting pressure on gutters or siding. For a quote, call our Barrington team at (847) 715-9493.
