Spring is the time of the year when home owners begin to clean out and clean up their homes. While we tend to focus our outdoor cleaning efforts on landscaping and yard work, it is important to make sure the exterior of our homes is clean and damage free.
Winter Can Be Hard On Windows
The long, dark, and damp winter months can reak havoc on the exterior of our homes and other structures on our property. Snow and ice can collect dirt and debris that become stuck to our homes, leaving a grimey mess coating windows and siding. Dust and dirt also collect around the windows of our homes, adding layers of filth that is unsightly as well as possibly damaging to windows themselves.
Importance Of Keeping Windows Clean
In order to keep windows working properly, it is important to make sure that they are properly cleaned and cared for. However, it is equally important to use the proper window cleaning tools and techniques so that damage to the seals and other parts of the window does not occur during the cleaning process.
Throughout the seasons windows collect a variety of grime, from pollen to molds and mildews, each causing its own issues for the exterior of our homes. Depending on the degree of dirt and grime on a window, cleaning may entail more than a soap and sponge.
Tools And Equipment
Various tools such as power pressure washers can be used to make quick work of extremely caked on grime and dirt. Capable of removing tough stains of any sort, these tools use high pressured water to knock off the layers of dirt on and around the windows. However, due to the force that can be created with this type of equipment, appropriate handling is necessary in order to avoid causing damage to the window and it’s seals.
Power washers are also cumbersome to maneuver when trying to clean second story or hard to reach windows on a home. Even getting the basic cleaning tools up to some windows can be precarious and possibly dangerous. Fortunately, there are better ways to ensure your windows are cleaned properly and safely.
