After grabbing all the supplies you'll need you're looking at around $75 for just the materials. The real cost is the time homeowners spend cleaning their windows. On average homeowners spend over 6 hours or even up to a few days to clean all the windows in their home properly. The time you spend making your windows shine is what gets expensive, especially if you're spending an entire weekend doing it. If you want to keep the weekend for doing things you enjoy, hire a window cleaning company that comes and gets your windows clean in just an afternoon with high-quality streak-free products. If you are still eager to DIY clean your windows, check out the steps below to get your windows sparkling.
Step 1: Fill Your Bucket
Fill two gallons of warm water with about 2 teaspoons of either dish soap or vinegar water solution. Some people may say you have to buy expensive window cleaning solutions from the store to get streak-free windows, but dish soap is one the best solutions to use when washing windows.
Step 2: Begin Cleaning Your Windows
Using your warm bucket of water and your sponge, start cleaning your windows making it so your window panes are soapy. You may have to reapply your soap solution to some window panes and let them sit for a few minutes to loosen the dirt and grime.
Step 3: Squeegee & Detail
Grab your squeegee and microfiber towel and start working your way from the top to the bottom of each window pane. Be sure to use your towel to wipe away any of the extra water that may have dripped while squeegeeing. You will repeat this process for both the exterior and interior of your windows throughout your home. After the windows dry, hopefully, you will have clean, streak-free windows!
