Having clean windows can brighten up the inside of your home and brighten your mood! There are many benefits to hiring a window cleaning company, other than a crystal clear view. If you have been considering doing some DIY window cleaning, our top 5 reasons to hire a professional the job may change your mind.
1. Top Notch Equipment
At Summit Window Cleaning we use the latest Pure Water cleaning technology for exterior window cleaning. This system uses multiple stages of filtration in conjunction with de-ionized water to leave your windows clear of any water spots and completely streak free. As an added bonus, it often allows our professionals to avoid using ladders, making the experience minimally obtrusive. The Pure Water system is also exceptional at simultaneously removing cobwebs and dirt from window frames.
Cleaning windows yourself with store-bought cleaners and wiping with paper towels or newspapers may, in fact, leave your windows looking dirtier and create streaks. It is also quite time and labor intensive without the proper equipment. If your home has stained glass or leaded glass, it is essential to use the appropriate cleaning agent. Cleaners containing ammonia, a common base for store-bought window cleaners, can cause irreparable damage to these types of windows. Hiring a professional team will save you time and protect your windows from potential damage.
2. Keep Your Small Problems from Becoming Big Problems
At Summit Window Cleaners, our seasoned professionals are not only highly trained at getting your windows clean, but they also keep an eye out for any problem areas and help you resolve them before they become a major issue. Some of these may include damaged or dysfunctional windows, rotting sills, damaged or poorly fitting screens, or broken seals. These issues might be more common, and harder to spot than you might think.
3. Extend the Life of Your Windows and Avoid Damage
Like many other aspects of maintaining a home or business, routinely cleaning your windows is vital in prolonging their lifespan. Pollutants and corrosive contaminants can negatively impact the condition of the window glass and surrounding materials, and with the increase in the Denver area population, pollution is more common than ever.
Hard water stains build up on windows that are sprayed by sprinklers and your hose. With time these stains become very difficult to take off and require the use of specialty cleaning products and a laborious cleaning process. However, a regularly scheduled window cleaning will stop the stains from developing in the first place.
Older aluminum screens can begin deteriorating and etching deposit patterns onto your windows. This can increase your window’s susceptibility to chipping and cracking. Our professionals can help prevent this from happening by cleaning your screens and letting you know if they may need to be replaced.
4. SAFETY FIRST!
Without the proper training and equipment, going up and down on a ladder around your home is not only exhausting but can be quite dangerous. Our extension ladders are all equipped with stabilizers and levelers, increasing their safety in all weather conditions. Our team maintains a perfect safety record, and we carry $1 million in liability insurance, just in case. We treat your home like it is our own and are very conscientious about using drop cloths, working around furniture and keeping all work areas clean. Additionally, Summit Window Cleaning only uses non-toxic, biodegradable soaps and solutions to make our cleaning process as environmentally friendly as possible, whereas many window cleaning solutions you can buy at the store contain harsh chemicals that are harmful to breathe.
