Question: How often should I have my windows professionally cleaned?
A) This question is often asked and I really cannot give a definitive One-Answer reply as it really is relative to what is important enough to you. Below are 8 suggestive reasons to consider for having windows professionally cleaned:
1) Upholding a warranty on installed windows.
Most Glass Manufacturers recommend having them professionally cleaned no later than every 3 months if in town.
However within conditions where sea salts, industrial chemicals, pesticide spraying, machinery plants, saw mills, deforestation and other environmental impacting sources are present, once per month is recommended. Several Glass Manufacturers will not even uphold a warranty on the installed window if you cannot provide proof that your windows have been maintained as written in their TOA Page. (Terms Of Agreement) This more often than not applies to coastal homes right near the ocean. Read your warranty to find out more information.
2) Holidays & Special Events
Holidays are a special time of the year for many people. Often, very memorable for everyone gathering around.
Having a beautiful window view seems priceless for such occasions. Special events can happen anytime of year. Perhaps you are hosting a gathering for a group of people and want to reflect a touch of class with brightly viewing windows.
3) Spring Cleaning
Spring cleaning is typically done once per year. This is when those windows are found to be the most mucked up and cleaning them yourself seems a very daunting task. Hiring a professional window cleaner is the simple solution. Bring to our attention if there has been a buildup of moisture around the window due to winter conditions.
4) Post Construction Cleanup
Cleanup is important after every new construction build and remodel. When considering windows, it is important to have new window install manufacturing stickers removed professionally without damaging the glass. If painting or staining has been done, it is typical of contractors to leave behind paint or sealant on the glass surface. To remove this material, there is certain method professional window cleaners use to remove this material without scratching the glass.
5) Running and maintaining a business
Customers are very much invited into a business when it is presentable. Clean windows are always very welcoming to your guests. Why not make your customers feel like you take pride in your business? Most storefronts in town get heavy traffic. We offer touch ups to those windows on a regular basis if you are having them serviced monthly.
6) Selling a home or business on the market
Make your selling point here. If you are serious about wanting to sell a house or office building then you will want to have the exteriors cleaned up very nice and presentable to your potential buyers.
7) Running and maintaining a vacation rental
Let your guests know that you are a class act and that they are welcomed. A Room With A View is priceless and memorable to your guests. When it touches their soul, they always come back.
8) Maintaining rental units such as houses, apartment buildings, or office spaces
Let your renters know that you are a good landlord and like to keep up with maintenance. This will always make renters feel good about renting from you.
