The most likely cause of smearing or streaking after cleaning your windows is residue left on the glass from the cleaner you’re using. Consider diluting the solution and cleaning them again, or use old newspaper to dry the windows after cleaning, as this will soak up any residual material. Additionally, aim to clean your windows on a cool, cloudy day, as cleaners will dry more quickly on the glass if it’s hot and sunny, promoting streaking.

To remove new construction dust, use a vacuum with a HEPA filter on all surfaces, including furniture and carpet. Follow that up with a damp mop to pick up lingering dust on hard surfaces.
