Posted on Wednesday, February 12th 2025

It’s tempting to think that you can skip maintaining your windows until it’s time to start spring cleaning, but dirt and grime don’t stop just because it’s cold outside. Melting snow can be a magnet for debris, and ice-melting salt may become a serious problem if caught in your window’s tracks. Window cleaning needs to stay on your to-do list, no matter the weather.

Removing Water Spots on Windows: How to Fix & Prevent
Posted on Wednesday, August 14th 2024

In many areas of the country, homeowners and business owners use hard water for bathing, cooking, and cleaning. Hard water has a high mineral content of magnesium and calcium. When filtered and treated, this type of water is drinkable and potable. When using hard water on surfaces like glass (your windows, for example) and it evaporates, the minerals it contains are left behind to dry and harden. The spots are not very noticeable and are typically easy to remove at first. However, if left unattended, the deposits build up a thick whitish glaze, and the sun will bake these spots onto the glass. This makes removing water spots on windows more difficult.

Office Window Cleaning: 10 Questions to Ask a Service Company
Posted on Wednesday, January 10th 2024

Shiny, streak-free windows in your office or commercial building have a value beyond aesthetics. Not only does it make a good impression on customers to have clean windows, but it can elevate the work experience for your employees as well. Office window cleaning can either be done by yourself or by hiring a professional service. The benefit of hiring a professional service is that you can deduct the cost as an expense towards your business. According to the IRS, routine maintenance that keeps your property in normal efficient operating condition, but that doesn’t materially increase the value of your property or substantially prolong its life, is deductible. Check with your tax accountant to see if window cleaning falls under the category of an expense that is deductible within the year.
