How to Keep Your Windows Clean Between Professional Visits
Fresh ideas from Gigi to keep your view crystal clear!
We know there’s nothing like that sparkling window shine after a professional cleaning — but how do you keep that look going in between appointments?
Here are some simple, Gigi-approved ideas to keep your windows looking great, without stress:
⸻
1. Clean on a Cloudy Day
Sunlight dries your cleaner too fast and leaves streaks. Choose a cloudy day or clean in the early morning/evening for better results.
⸻
2. Use a Microfiber Cloth or Squeegee
Paper towels leave lint. Use a microfiber cloth or squeegee for a streak-free shine — just like the pros.
⸻
3. DIY Cleaner That Works
Mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle for an effective and natural glass cleaner. Add a drop of dish soap to cut through grease if needed.
⸻
4. Avoid Circular Motions
Wipe side to side on the inside, and up to down on the outside. That way, you can see which side has streaks.
⸻
5. Don’t Forget the Tracks and Frames
Dust and dirt collect there! Use a toothbrush or vacuum attachment to clean tracks once a month — it helps your windows open smoothly too.
⸻
6. Spot Clean Fingerprints Regularly
Especially if you have kids or pets, keep a soft cloth nearby to quickly wipe away smudges as soon as you see them.
⸻
7. Be Gentle with Screens
Dust screens with a soft brush or vacuum, and rinse them with a hose once in a while. Let them dry fully before putting them back.
⸻
Final Tip from Gigi:
“A little upkeep goes a long way. And when it’s time for a full refresh — you know who to call.”
