Are you frustrated with your dirty windows? If so, you’ll probably considering hiring a Las Vegas cleaning company to do the job for you. This is not completely necessary. You can learn how to clean your windows like a professional. Follow these tips and yours windows are sure to sparkle as if a professional did the work.
You are going to need the proper window cleaning tools. The most important is the window cleaning squeegee. This is the most effective tool to remove the window cleaning solution from the glass. You want to ensure you have a large rubber blade on your squeegee. This will allow you to clean your windows easier and faster. Don’t buy a cheap squeegee. This is the most important tool. You need to spend a decent amount of money to ensure that it will work properly. In the long run you’ll be saving money anyways because you won’t have to replace it.
The next tool you will need is a scrubbing wand, also known as a T-handle. This is used to do the actually scrubbing on your window. You can choose either a swivel handle or fixed handle. The swivel makes it easier to scrub because the handle moves quickly and is more versatile. The fixed handle only allows for a limited range of motion. You can get a scrubbing wand in a variety of sizes beginning at 6 inches. Depending on how large your windows are will determine which size you should get. If you have the average size windows on your home, the smallest wand should be fine. If you are cleaning large windows on a business building, you may want to look into larger sizes like 18 inches.
If you have to clean a lot of windows in a large space, you may want to invest in a window cleaning tool belt. This is designed to perfectly fit all your different cleaning tools. It is very convenient for the busy window cleaner to have all the necessary tools within reach. This is especially good when you have to climb on a ladder to clean your windows. You don’t want to leave your tools on the ground and have to constantly go down and get each one.
You are also going to need a bucket. Fortunately, the window cleaning tool belts are designed to carry buckets as well. The buckets are typically three gallons. It is the most convenient way to hold your cleaning solution.
There are even specific towels made just for window cleaning. These towels are gentle on glass, so they won’t leave scratches. The best ones are micro fiber, terry cloth or surgical towels. If you use a towel made with different fabrics than these, you are likely to leave scratches on you window. It won’t necessary dry everything up properly either.
