Mastering the Art of Window Washing Techniques

Windows are the eyes of a home, offering a glimpse into the world outside. Keeping them clean can be daunting. At Simon’s Window Cleaning, we’ve honed our window washing techniques to provide the best service for our clients. This guide explores professional residential window cleaning techniques used on a contract basis.

The Importance of Proper Window Cleaning Technique

A clean window enhances your home’s aesthetic and allows optimal light penetration. Window cleaning is more than wiping—it combines the right tools, techniques, and expertise. At Simon’s Window Cleaning, we ensure a streak-free finish every time.

The “S Technique”: A Signature Method

Our signature “S Technique” involves moving the squeegee in an “S” pattern across the window. Starting from the top left corner, the squeegee is guided down in a smooth, continuous “S” motion. This minimizes streaks and drips, leaving windows sparkling. It’s especially effective for large residential windows.

The Basic Fanning Technique: Perfect for Smaller Windows

The fanning technique moves the squeegee in a semi-circular, fan-like motion from top to bottom. Ideal for smaller windows or multi-pane windows, it ensures precision and thorough cleaning without streaks, leaving each pane shining brightly.

The “7 Technique”: Tackling Hard-to-Reach Corners

The “7 Technique” addresses windows that are hard to reach or unusually shaped. The squeegee is moved to draw a “7” shape, starting at the top left corner, moving right, then downwards. This ensures every corner is cleaned, adapting to the window’s shape and size for a spotless finish.
