Get matched with top cleaning & maid services pros in Rushville, IL

Getting a streak-free shine after cleaning your windows requires both the right cleaning solutions—which can either include warm water and dish soap or warm water and rubbing alcohol—and the right tools—namely, a squeegee and a microfiber cloth. To make your streak-free glass cleaner, combine one gallon of warm water with a few drops of dish soap, and mix. Apply with a sprayer or sponge, and then dry with a squeegee, microfiber cloth, or old black-and-white newspaper pages.

It depends on the company and the services it provides. If a cleaning company is just washing the outside of the windows, the pro may only wash the glass panes. But if they’re washing the inside and outside, they most likely bundle cleaning the sill and frame into the cost. It’s best to ask before you schedule a service to see if the company will charge additional fees.

Smoke stains, grease buildup, mold, and water spots are common reasons for hiring professional cleaning services.

Luckily, glass block windows need minimal maintenance. Other than regular cleaning, the only maintenance involved in having a glass block window is inspecting for cracks every year and applying sealer to the mortar joints if the blocks are set in masonry mortar. Glass block windows hold up well against wind and moisture better than traditional windows and are not prone to rot.
