Why Process Matters

A lot of window cleaners will wipe down your glass and call it a job. We think that’s not enough. A window cleaning that skips the screens, ignores the tracks, or rushes through the exterior leaves your home looking half-done — and often means the glass gets dirty faster because the surrounding grime wasn’t addressed.

Here’s exactly what we do, step by step, on every clean. We publish this because we’re proud of how we work — and because you deserve to know what you’re getting before anyone shows up at your door.

1

Arrival & Walk-Through — Before We Touch Anything

We walk the property before starting — checking window count and placement, identifying high-access windows, inspecting screen condition, and noting anything needing extra attention like hard water staining or construction residue.

This takes 5–10 minutes and it’s not optional. It’s what allows us to quote accurately, avoid surprises, and make sure we have the right tools for your property.

Why it matters: Crews that skip the walk-through are the ones who suddenly “discover” extra charges mid-job. We don’t work that way.
2

Setup & Property Protection

Before any water or tools touch anything, we set up properly: patio furniture or planters are moved, drop cloths go on interior sills and floors, and ladders are properly footed so they can’t damage siding, stucco, or landscaping.

Southern Oregon has a lot of decorative rock gardens and river-rock landscaping right up against homes. We’re careful around all of it.

3

Screen Removal & Cleaning

Every removable screen comes off before we touch the glass. We brush off dry debris and wash the mesh and frame. Screens trap pollen, dust, smoke particulates (common in the Rogue Valley during fire season), and outdoor grime. Leaving them dirty while cleaning the glass underneath defeats half the purpose.

We keep track of which screen belongs to which window — every time. They go back to their original spots, properly seated. If a screen needs repair, we offer screen repair on the same visit.

Local note: Medford’s oak trees and grass fields create heavy pollen in spring. Screens that haven’t been cleaned since fall are often coated by April.
4

Exterior Glass — Scrub, Squeegee, Detail

Each pane gets scrubbed with a strip washer — this is what actually loosens grime, hard water mineral deposits, and oxidized residue. Then squeegeed in overlapping strokes. Then the edges and corners are detailed by hand with a lint-free microfiber cloth — no drips, no runs, no missed corners.

For stubborn hard water staining from irrigation systems (very common in Medford), we use appropriate treatments to break down the mineral bond without scratching the glass.

5

Interior Glass — Same Standard, No Exceptions

Interior windows get the exact same treatment — scrub, squeegee, detail. We’re just as thorough inside. We work carefully around curtains, blinds, furniture, and interior decor near the windows. Drop cloths stay in place. We move slowly and deliberately inside a home.

Some companies skip or rush the interior because it’s more work. We don’t. Half-clean windows are not clean windows.

6

Sills & Track Cleaning

Window tracks are miniature dirt traps — dead insects, debris through the screen mesh, moisture that leaves mineral deposits. We vacuum tracks and wipe them down so the whole window unit looks clean, not just the glass.

Sills get wiped too. A spotless pane above a dusty, grime-caked sill is not a finished job. We treat the window as one complete unit.

7

Final Inspection, Screen Reinstall & Cleanup

When we think we’re done, we’re not done yet. We walk through every window one more time — checking for any streaks, drips, smears, or missed spots. If anything’s there, it gets touched up before we leave.

Screens go back in. Furniture goes back. Drop cloths come up. We leave your property exactly as we found it — just with dramatically cleaner windows.

Our rule: We don’t leave until we’d be comfortable having you inspect every window right then and there. If you’re home, we invite you to.

Process Questions

Things customers ask before they book.

Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
For exterior-only jobs, no — we can access the outside of most homes without assistance. For interior cleaning, someone needs to be present to let us in. Just let us know when you book and we’ll plan accordingly.
How long does a full window cleaning take?
Depends on window count and buildup. A typical Medford home with 15–20 windows takes about 2–3 hours for full interior/exterior. We’ll give you a time estimate when we quote the job.
What if it rains right after you clean?
Clean glass handles rain just fine — rain water on a clean pane leaves almost nothing behind when it dries. It’s the pre-existing dirt that makes rain look dirty. If you get spots within a couple of days that seem from the cleaning itself, call us and we’ll sort it out.
Can I book window cleaning with gutter cleaning the same day?
Yes — we recommend it. We suggest doing gutter cleaning first so debris doesn’t fall on freshly cleaned glass. Many customers combine both on the same visit for convenience and savings. Just mention it when requesting your estimate.
What cleaning solution do you use? Is it safe around kids and pets?
We use professional biodegradable window cleaning solution — it’s safe once dry, which happens quickly. For solar panel cleaning, we use only purified water — no solution at all.
