Remember you\u2019ll be sloshing water around and unless you really know what you\u2019re doing, it can quickly become dangerous. Get a window cleaning professional in \u2013 even if they\u2019re only doing the upstairs.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <strong>Wash the window frames<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you\u2019re ready to wash the frames. It\u2019s best to start outside, where spillages and dribbles won\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dip your sponge in, give it a light squeeze, and wipe around the frames. If it\u2019s your first time for a while, you\u2019ll probably need to rub hard, but as with all cleaning, start light and press harder if the dirt isn\u2019t lifting off. (It\u2019ll be easier next time.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get one of your dry cloths and wipe excess water off the frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"341\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-3-unnamed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-3-unnamed.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-3-unnamed-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. <strong>Wash the window panes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now dip your sponge into the water again, bring it out and give it a really good squeeze. You want your sponge to be slightly damp, not dripping wet. If you\u2019re using a window washer (a T-shaped contraption with a sponge bar and a handle), dip it into the bucket, bring it out and squeeze excess water off it by running your finger and thumb along its length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you can set about wetting the pane. Most of the time, you\u2019ll only need a light wash over the whole pane. You\u2019ll only need to start rubbing harder if there are stubborn marks on there. Tree sap is particularly tough, so if your window is under a tree or shrub, you might want to use a light scourer or something slightly more abrasive than a sponge, for example, a cloth \u2013 nothing too scratchy, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Rinse with a squeegee<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now comes the most important part \u2013 removing the water. You can\u2019t call your windows clean until this part is over, because they are essentially coated in dirty water. If you let the water evaporate, the dirt will remain, only now it\u2019ll be mixed with sticky soap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s the expert touch: wrap a dry cloth over one finger and drag it from top to bottom right down one edge, so you have a dry line of about 1 cm (half an inch) touching the frame. This is because the squeegee won\u2019t quite fit in the angle between the frame and the pane. If you\u2019re right-handed, dry the left edge; otherwise, do the opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-1150x767.jpg 1150w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554-575x383.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-4-iStock-875017554.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, starting at the top left (assuming you\u2019re right-handed), place the dry squeegee vertically on the window touching the left frame and pull it to the right. When you reach the other side, do a rotating motion with the edge of the squeegee pressed against the right frame, so it ends up horizontal, level with the bottom of the dry area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now \u2013 very important \u2013 dry the squeegee with a cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat the step above, slightly overlapping the last sweep, and keep doing it until you reach the bottom. Remember to dry the squeegee between sweeps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, you should be left with a bit of a puddle at the bottom of the frame. Flick off any excess with the squeegee and dry any remnants with a clean cloth. You should be able to get about 6\u20138 windows out of a cloth before switching to a new clean one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You shouldn\u2019t need to dry the pane with a towel or cloth after squeegeeing. Any small wet patches will evaporate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. <strong>Go indoors<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The process for cleaning indoors is exactly the same, but you should put towels or old sheets on carpets and window-ledges to minimise splashing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Greener solutions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some detergent-free solutions, too. Pour some white vinegar into a spray bottle and squirt it all over the pane. Some people swear by the power of lemon \u2013 cut a lemon in half and rub it all over the pane. It definitely works \u2026 sometimes. Finally, wipe off the vinegar or lemon with newspaper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tools and gadgets<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of other window cleaning solutions you can buy to assist your window cleaning. Whether you invest in one depends how seriously you want to take it. Three popular ones are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Steam cleaner<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>These come in hand-held and traditional canister-and-tube types, with cloth, squeegee and scraper attachments. Pressurised steam cleans the windows, which is supposed to kill germs and remove the need for detergent. They can also be adapted to clean tiling grout, mirrors, shower screens and furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Window vac<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Wash your windows with soapy water, suck it away with a vacuum squeegee attachment for a streak-free finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Extendable cleaner<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your squeegee and cloth are attached to the end of a long pole so you can reach your upstairs windows safely. They come in two forms: a simple extending pole, and a system that pumps water to the top. These are more useful if you clean regularly, but if you\u2019re tackling dirty windows, you might lack the pressure and precision to do a good job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-1024x700.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-1024x700.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-1536x1049.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-1150x786.jpg 1150w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733-575x393.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/home-improvements\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/78-5-iStock-535374733.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Expert window cleaning<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So there\u2019s our guide to window cleaning like a pro.
