Window Washing at a 2-story house in Lincolnwood on North Kenton Avenue. 29 windows cleaned. Completed by our Chicago team.
Lincolnwood's residential blocks sit quietly between the busier corridors of Skokie to the east and Morton Grove to the north, and the two-story homes along these streets tend to be well-kept but heavily landscaped — mature shrubs pushed close to the foundation, tree canopy overhead. That combination means windows that don't see much direct cleaning attention, and when this homeowner called for a full interior and exterior wash on their double-hung units, the glass showed it. Twenty-nine windows across two floors, with sixteen screens that needed washing as well.
We worked through the house methodically, pulling each double-hung sash to clean both panes, wiping frames, and vacuuming out the tracks before moving on. The landscaping along the front and sides required some patience — easing around established bushes to get a clean angle without damaging anything took more time than open-wall runs typically do, but we didn't rush it. The sixteen screens went through a wash and were set to dry before being reinstalled. By the end of the day every window in the house had been cleaned inside and out, tracks and frames included, and the invoice was sent over once we were done on site.

Timothy may be our youngest technician, but don’t let that fool you. He’s experienced, professional, courteous, and already knows his way around the job like a seasoned pro. He’s also a promising DJ, so there’s a good chance he can fix the problem and recommend a solid playlist while he’s at it. Everyone loves Timothy because he’s easy to talk to, always upbeat, and genuinely enjoys meeting people. He also has a strange love for Wisconsin, which we still haven’t fully figured out - but nobody’s perfect.

Common questions from Lincolnwood homeowners researching Window Washing.
This 29-window job on a 2-story house in Lincolnwood ran $400, which is right in line with typical pricing for a home this size. For the Chicago area, full interior and exterior window cleaning on a 2-story house generally falls between $300 and $500 depending on window count, accessibility, and whether screens are included.
A job with 29 double-hung windows cleaned inside and out, plus 16 screens, typically takes a crew around 3 to 4 hours. Obstacles like the bushes and trees surrounding the windows on this property add some time, since ladders need to be repositioned carefully to avoid damaging landscaping.
On this job we cleaned all 29 double-hung windows on both the interior and exterior, and washed all 16 screens separately before reinstalling them. Frames and sills are wiped down as part of the process, so the finished result is clean glass and clean surrounds, not just streaks moved around.
Yes — overgrown shrubs and low-hanging branches are a common challenge on older Chicagoland properties, and we work around them rather than skipping those windows. On this Lincolnwood house, we carefully maneuvered ladders through the landscaping to reach every window without damaging the plants or the siding.
