Window Washing at a 2-story house in McHenry on Appaloosa Trail. 25 windows cleaned. Completed by our Round Lake team.
McHenry sits far enough inland that lake-effect grit isn't the culprit — it's the open lots and seasonal wind off the surrounding countryside that leave glass looking worn by the time spring rolls around. This two-story house came to us needing exterior-only work across 25 windows, the kind of job where the goal is straightforward but the window count on a full two-story demands a steady, methodical pace to do right.
Our crew worked the ground-floor windows first, moving along the perimeter before setting up to reach the upper story. Exterior-only service kept the rhythm clean — no screen management indoors, no coordinating room by room with occupants — just a focused push through all 25 panes, frame edges wiped down, glass squeegeed clear. We finished the run without interruption, and the invoice went out the same day the work was done.

A 25-window exterior cleaning on a two-story home generally takes a crew about 1.5 to 2.5 hours from setup to finish. Factors like window style, height, and how much buildup is present can nudge that time up or down.
Exterior-only service covers washing and squeegee-finishing every accessible outside pane, plus wiping down the surrounding frames and sills. Screens are removed and set aside as needed to reach the glass, but interior surfaces and screen washing are not part of this scope.
