How to Clean Windows Like a Professionals

Ideally, windows need to be washed twice a year, but it is a task that most people do not expect. Part of what makes the window cleaning is that homeowners insist they are made with paper towels or newspapers, a spray cleaner and a ton of elbow. "Anything you rub is not a good idea," says Robert, owner of Window Cleaning Alpharetta. "You just have to move the dirt from one side to another and in turn attracts a charge on the glass, dust and dirt. Once you're done, the window looks dirty again." As Weingard shows, it is easier and more effective to clean glass like the professional: with a squeegee and some other reasonably available tools. The techniques are not complicated, he says, and the results may surprise you.
