Is hiring a professional Window cleaner worth it?

It’s a fact: Most homeowners don’t wash their windows regularly. Let’s face it— most of us go out and purchase beautiful blinds and shades and that’s what we want to focus on!

But when you drive by someone else’s home, take note of what you’re actually observing. Chances are, it’s the windows. If they’re clean and shiny, your eyes are drawn straight to them. Likewise, if they’re dirty and grimy, your eyes will STILL be drawn to them. Professional window cleaning can help you to uncover the beauty of your home, inside and out.

Windows help your house feel open, inviting, and full of light.

Windows obviously help keep unwanted pests out, but they can also help to keep the temperature of your home regulated. With all of the hard work your windows perform for your home, it’s worth investing a bit of work to keep them clean and young. Thankfully, with the help of Bee Line Window Services, you don’t have to do the grunt work yourself!

So why is it worth it to wash your windows, and how often should you clean them?

Is it worth it to invest in a professional window cleaning service, or can you just do it yourself? We’re here today to answer that question for you!

1. Professional window cleaning can help you in more ways than one.

Of course, hiring a professional will save you precious time. To some that’s more than enough of a reason to invest in the service. But time isn’t the only thing you could be saving. Our professional technicians at Bee Line Window Services are trained to spot current and potential future damage to windows and fixtures. They can detect whether windows are properly installed, and they can spot possible flaws which could be allowing elements into your home. 

Regular window cleanings can help control insect infestations. Wasps and bees love to hunker down in window sills and frames. A regular professional window cleaning will ensure that these pests do not stick around! We can also catch potential mold and mildew damage before it gets out of control. This is a big deal for humid Nebraska weather. Many homeowners simply aren’t aware of the places mold and mildew can harbor before it’s too late.

2. Professional window cleaning should be done twice Per year at the very least.

In the humid Nebraska heat, it is recommended to deep clean your windows on a seasonal basis to keep them in top condition. You can settle for biannual cleanings, but prevention is the name of the game. Keeping the dirt and grime at bay is the best way to ensure you’re staying on top of any possible issues that could arise from window damage, and it will ensure a longer lifespan for them. The math adds up: the more frequent you utilize professional window cleanings, the better the health of your windows.

3. Keeping your windows clean can help them to last longer.

Sand and dirt can scratch the surface of windows and cause etching, which weakens the strength of the glass. If you live near a water source, or if you have mulching outside of your windows, other elements like mold or fungus spores can easily attach themselves to your windows. 

The longer these foreign elements stay on the glass, the harder they become to clean off. Weakened glass is the leading cause for breakage in Nebraska storms such as thunderstorms and hailstorms. Keeping your windows clean ensures that they are strong and able to resist the elements.

4. Clean Windows increase your home’s value

Thinking of selling your home? HGTV recommends taking a photo of the outside of your home, and then changing the color filter to black and white. When you look at your home in grayscale, you can really see the way dirt and grime impacts your curb appeal. But the reason for clean windows isn’t just aesthetic, clean windows can actually help to boost your home’s resell value significantly. Buyers want shiny, clean windows that they can gaze into and out of. Clean windows help to dramatically increase your curb appeal.
