Window Washing at a 3-story house in Wilmette on Oakwood Avenue. 110 windows cleaned. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Three stories in Wilmette means a lot of glass to account for, and this house had 110 windows spread across its full height — a mix of French-style and double-hung units that added up to a serious day's work before the crew even pulled a squeegee. The home sits in a part of town where mature lots and older construction tend to go together, and by early fall the exterior glass had collected the kind of layered grime that builds up when a house goes a season without attention. The customer wanted a full interior and exterior clean, which was the right call given the scale.
Our three-man crew arrived at eight in the morning and spent the first three hours on the gutters before turning to the windows. The height of the house set the pace — reaching the upper-story glass on a three-story structure demands care and patience, and we didn't rush it. Once we moved into the window work, the rhythm steadied: French-style units got frame wipes and careful attention to the divided-light sections, double-hungs were run through their full range to clean both sashes, tracks vacuumed and wiped, screens — all 85 of them — washed and reset. Seven hours of window cleaning brought us to the end of the day with everything done inside and out.

Common questions from Wilmette homeowners researching Window Washing.
This 110-window, 3-story home in Wilmette came to $1,855, which included interior and exterior cleaning plus 85 screens. For large homes in the Wilmette and North Shore area, full-service window washing typically runs anywhere from $800 to over $2,000 depending on window count, stories, and whether screens and interior glass are included.
A job this size — 110 windows cleaned inside and out on a very tall 3-story home — requires a full crew day to complete safely and thoroughly. Extra height adds time because it demands ladders, extension equipment, and careful repositioning between every section of the house.
On this job we cleaned all 110 windows inside and out, covering both French style and double hung units, and washed all 85 screens. Interior and exterior service means every pane gets wiped down on both sides, frames are wiped, and screens are scrubbed and rinsed before being reinstalled.
Yes — tall homes are a regular part of our work on the North Shore, and this Wilmette 3-story was a good example of where proper equipment and technique matter most. We use professional extension ladders and water-fed pole systems sized for the height, so every window gets cleaned without cutting corners on safety or quality.
