Q: Should I use hot or cold water to clean windows?

• <div><p>Hot water removes grime more efficiently than cold water and evaporates more quickly so that your windows will dry faster. However, you may want to use cold water instead if your windowsill paint is chipping or peeling because heat can worsen this condition.</p></div>

Q: What can I use to clean windows without streaking?

• <div><p>One of the best professional cleaning solutions that won&rsquo;t leave streaks is one gallon of distilled or bottled water mixed with 2 to 4 teaspoons of dish soap. Apply using a sponge in a figure-eight motion, and then use a squeegee to remove the majority of the water and soap. You can finish drying with a piece of old black-and-white newspaper to remove any residue for a streak-free clean every time.</p></div>

Q: What not to mix bleach with?

• <div><p>Do not mix bleach with vinegar, ammonia, acidic liquids, or other cleaners or detergents as toxic fumes result from the chemical reaction. Mix bleach only with water to avoid dangerous chemical reactions. Even mixed with water to dilute it, bleach can still be harmful to your skin, eyes, and lungs.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance tips might pros provide post-cleaning?

• <div><p>Suggesting regular dusting and spot cleaning to maintain freshness.</p></div>

Rick helped with replacing some rotted subfloor, removing an old furnace, insulating under the house, insulating water lines, and putting up skirting around the home. Put us in a good spot before winter hits. Great with communication and was able to help us quickly after requesting assistance.
