Why You’re Not Getting A Professional Finish When You Clean Your Windows

If your windows aren’t clean it can really let the look of your property down. But sometimes, even when you’ve diligently tried to remove any stain, splodge and watermark your windows still don’t look clean when the sun hits them.

Why is that, you ask? Well, it’s likely down to one of the following points which means your finish will never look professional, unless you improve your window cleaning game.

You’re Using The Wrong Products

You would never have found Picasso trying to paint one of his masterpieces with his hands instead of a paintbrush. So when it comes to trying to clean windows like a professional, how on Earth can you do so with the wrong products?

Despite the saying ‘a bad workman always blames his tools’ we couldn’t disagree more. That’s because the wrong tools in window cleaning could create a bigger mess than when you started. In some instances, you can even scratch the glass which is common in amateur post construction cleaning or solar panel cleaning, as an example. 

Instead, you need to go back to basics by thinking like a window cleaner. Here are some of the most common tools a professional window cleaner uses:

Whether you’re looking to clean your own windows or have a professional window cleaning business, it pays to use exactly the same tools and equipment as the experts, especially if you want to achieve a beautiful clean finish to the glass!

You Haven’t Yet Developed The Right Technique

Window cleaning is an art form. It’s not enough to throw dishwashing liquid and a bucket of water onto the window and hope for the best (please don’t do that!). Starting with the right tools and products, you also need to learn the most efficient way to remove various stains from the glass.

Sometimes this can involve scrubbing at the stain and other deep cleaning techniques before you bust out that t-bar or squeegee. As you work, the water needs to be effectively pushed off the glass so that you don’t have to keep going over the same spots.

If you find streaks or water droplets being left behind on the glass, something is amiss. You might not even be using the right water to begin with, which is why we recommend you check out a pure water fed pole cleaning package instead.
