Window Washing at a 2-story house in Riverwoods on Saunders Road. 27 windows cleaned. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Riverwoods sits in a quiet corridor of wooded lots between Deerfield and Lincolnshire, and the two-story homes out here tend to run large — wide footprints, generous glazing, mature trees that filter the light but trap the heat. This house fit that pattern. Twenty-seven exterior windows needed cleaning, and a number of them were oversized units that required extra time and care to work across properly.
Our technician arrived at noon and got straight into it under full midday sun. The heat was genuine — the kind that makes fast evaporation a real factor when you're working large panes and trying to stay ahead of the squeegee. Oversized glass demands deliberate strokes and attentive overlaps; there's no rushing it without leaving streaks. He worked through the exterior on all twenty-seven windows, managing the sun and the scale of the glass at the same pace, and wrapped the job four hours after arrival. Invoice went out once the work was done.

Common questions from Riverwoods homeowners researching Window Washing.
This 27-window job on a 2-story home in Riverwoods ran $355, which is right in line with typical pricing for houses of that size in the North Shore area. For exterior-only service, most 2-story homes in the Chicago suburbs fall somewhere between $200 and $450 depending on window count, accessibility, and glass size. Oversized windows, like the ones on this job, can push the price toward the higher end of that range.
A 27-window exterior job like this one generally takes a crew a few hours to complete, including setup, washing, and detailing each pane. Oversized windows add some time since there's more glass surface to work through carefully. Most 2-story homes are wrapped up in half a day or less.
Exterior-only service covers the outside face of every window on the home — glass is washed, squeegeed, and wiped down for a streak-free finish. Frames and sills on the exterior get wiped as part of the process. Interior glass and screens are not included in an out-only service, which keeps the job efficient and the price lower.
Yes, reaching upper-floor windows on 2-story homes is standard for our crews, and we come equipped with the ladders and extension tools needed to handle them safely. This Riverwoods job included oversized windows on the upper level, which required extra care to squeegee cleanly without streaking across the larger glass surface.
