I want to be hones and want to tell you that I clean outside of my home windows once or twice in a year because its so much of a hassle.
But I know, We have to clean both side of Home Windows.
So let's start,
Before you start the job, you need to remove the window screens from the frames. This is the only step in the entire procedure that will take
much of your time. If the windows go up to the ceiling so you would need a ladder to do the needful. Make the way to the ladder in the room
and climb up to remove the windows. Its safe and advised to have someone hold the ladder while you climb and pass the window screen to
your partner to safely lay it down. While you are taking out each window screen, remember to mark it accordingly so later you know which
screen belongs to the frame.
The next step is to gather all the things that you will need to clean the window screens. Most important of all, you will need a window cleaning
agent. You can easily get one from the departmental store, but most of them do not give the result as they claim. They tend to leave streaks
over the windows. You can make one at your home by using a tablespoon of dishwashing detergent with a gallon of water. Make sure you do
not add too much of detergent as it will result in leaving marks.
The second thing you need is wiping equipment. Squeegee (T-shaped cleaning implement with a rubber edge across the top) is the best
option. Though you can also use a towel for the same purpose but a squeegee gets the job done faster, it cleans and dries the window at the
very same time.
Here comes the real part of the job; to clean the windows. Dampen the sponge in your window cleaning solution and apply it to the outer side
of the window screen. Now place the squeegee right on top of the screen and with slight pressure drag it down to the bottom of the screen.
Dry the squeegee with a damn cloth and place it back to the top of the screen. Make sure that this time you are placing the squeegee adjacent
but slightly overlapping to the portion you just wiped. Repeat the same thing again with all the windows.
Now before you fix the window screens back to the frame, clean the frames to get a better cleaning result. You can clean the frames either
with water or a bit soapy water. Dry the frames with a damn cloth before you place the window screens back.
With the help of these tips you can easily have your windows look new and clean every month. If you still think that it is too much of a job for
you then you sure can have a professional take care of this work, as you will find many window cleaners in affordable prices nearby your locality.
