Window Washing at a 2-story house in Park Ridge on South Crescent Avenue. 57 windows cleaned. Completed by our Chicago team.
— Chicago crew
Park Ridge sits in a quiet pocket of the northwest suburbs where mature landscaping is a given — hedges trimmed close to the foundation, shrubs grown up alongside window sills, the kind of greenery that looks orderly from the street but makes exterior glass work a deliberate exercise. This two-story house had exactly that: French-style windows running across both floors, 57 panes in all, with 33 storm panels in the mix. The customer wanted exterior-only service, a practical call that let us move efficiently through the property without coordinating interior access.
The bushes pressed right up against several of the windows, which meant working carefully around branches rather than rushing the squeegee across the glass. Our technician took the time to reach in where needed, keeping the divided-light frames and the surrounding plantings intact. The storm panels came off one by one, cleaned separately, and set back in place before moving to the next opening. Fifty-seven windows across two floors is a full day's count, and the French-style sashes — with their muntin grids holding the panes in section — required attention at every joint. The work moved steadily from one side of the house to the other until the last storm panel was back in its track.

Common questions from Park Ridge homeowners researching Window Washing.
For a 2-story house in Park Ridge, exterior-only window washing typically runs between $200 and $350, depending on window count and access conditions. This 57-window job, which included French-style windows and 33 storm windows, came in at $250. Tighter landscaping or harder-to-reach windows can nudge the price up slightly.
A job this size — 57 windows on a 2-story home — generally takes a crew 3 to 5 hours to complete. On this particular project, mature bushes and trees along the building line added some maneuvering time but didn't push the job past a single visit. Exterior-only work moves faster than interior-and-exterior service.
Exterior-only service covers cleaning every accessible outside glass surface, including specialty panes like French-style windows and storm windows. On this job, we cleaned all 33 storm windows as part of the 57-window total, working around landscaping to reach each pane fully. Frames and sills are wiped down as part of the process, so the finished look is clean edge to edge.
Yes, second-story windows are a standard part of what we handle on 2-story homes. We use extension poles and ladders sized for the job, and on this Park Ridge house we worked through overhanging trees and shrubs to reach every upper-level pane safely.
