Our 6-Step Professional Residential Window Cleaning Process

  1. Prep & Cobweb Removal: We carefully inspect every window pane and clear away cobwebs, spider webs, and surface debris around your window frames and trim. We identify any pre-existing hard water spots, scratches, and failed window seals and bring them to your attention.
  2. Screen Removal & Track Wipe Down: We carefully remove your window screens to avoid damage and gain full access to the window. Using specialized brushes and detail tools, we wipe down the trapped dirt, dust, pollen, and debris from the tracks and sills.
  3. Glass Scrubbing: Using professional soft microfiber applicators, professional eco-friendly cleaning solutions, and glass-safe abrasive pads, we scrub away stubborn surface buildup, bug parts, bird droppings, and grime without scratching your glass.
  4. Frame & Sill Wipe Down: We thoroughly wipe down the window frames, sills, and edges with microfiber towels. Cleaning the perimeter removes lingering moisture and grime, preventing dirty water from running back onto the glass.
  5. Rinse/Squeegee: Depending on the service and glass placement, we hand-squeegee your glass to remove dirt or use our pure deionized water-fed pole system for exterior windows. Pure deionized water strips away all dissolved solids in tap water allowing the glass to air-dry to a spot-free shine.
  6. Individual Screen Cleaning: Every screen is washed separately to remove trapped dust, cobwebs, and pollen before being reinstalled. Cleaning screens individually ensures dirty mesh won’t ruin your freshly washed glass the next time it rains.

Residential Window Cleaning FAQ

The cost of professional residential window cleaning depends on several factors, including whether you need exterior-only or interior and exterior glass cleaning, the number and size of window panes, the number of stories, window accessibility, and the overall condition of the windows. Other factors, such as French panes, patio doors, sunscreens, bay windows, and the amount of ladder work required, can also affect the price.

Because every home is different, we provide free, no-obligation estimates so we can give you an accurate price based on your specific needs. Contact Rinse Exterior Cleaning to schedule your free estimate.

Yes! We offer free, no-obligation estimates for all of our exterior cleaning services, including window cleaning, screen repair, and solar panel cleaning.

In most cases, we’ll visit your property in person to provide the most accurate quote, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before any work begins. Many estimates can be scheduled within 24–48 hours, and we’ll work with you to find a convenient time.

Standard residential window cleaning includes the removal of normal environmental buildup such as dirt, dust, pollen, insect residue, cobwebs, bird droppings, and other common contaminants from your glass. We also remove and clean accessible window screens that are in good condition. When interior glass cleaning is included, we wipe down accessible window frames, sills, and tracks as part of the service.

Some types of buildup require specialized restoration and are not included with standard window cleaning, including hard water stains, mineral deposits, paint, graffiti, adhesive or tape residue, silicone, caulk, mortar, cement, stucco overspray, rust, oxidation, window film residue, and other construction or manufacturing debris. Depending on the severity and condition of the buildup, restoration services may be available for an additional charge.

Window cleaning also does not remove scratches, glass etching, fogging caused by failed seals, or other pre-existing glass damage.

For homes in the Greater Sacramento area, we recommend professional residential window cleaning at least 2x-4x times per year depending on your specific location and amount of trees and wildlife nearby:

Spring Refresh: Clears winter rain residue, heavy tree pollen, and seasonal dust storm buildup.

Fall Preparation: Removes dried sap, bird droppings, and summer dust before rainy weather sets in.

Interior Detailing: Best completed once per year to remove indoor dust film, pet smudges, and cooking oils.

Yes! While our company name is Rinse Exterior Cleaning, we provide complete interior window cleaning services for homes throughout Sacramento, Folsom, and surrounding areas. Our interior service includes hand-scrubbing and squeegeeing the glass, wiping down tracks and sills, removing and cleaning the screens, and cleaning frames. We take extra care inside your home by wearing shoe covers and working carefully around your furniture and window treatments.

Yes! Window screens are included with both exterior-only and interior/exterior window cleaning services. We clean patio screen doors in place on their tracks. For exterior-only cleanings, we can only access and clean the exterior side of patio screen doors while they remain on the track.

Window tracks are only included with interior glass cleaning. This allows us full access to properly clean the track area. Exterior-only window cleaning does not include track cleaning since we cannot fully access the entire track from the outside.

No, rain doesn’t usually make professionally cleaned windows dirty. In most cases, spots are caused by the dirt, pollen, and debris left on the glass or washed down from your window frames, screens, or surrounding surfaces. That’s why we back our exterior window cleaning with a 7-Day Rain Guarantee. If rain affects your exterior windows within seven days of your cleaning, we’ll return to touch them up at no additional cost.

If rain is in the forecast, we recommend scheduling your window cleaning as planned. If it happens to rain on the day of your service, we can start with interior window cleaning instead. Weather forecasts can change quickly in the Greater Sacramento Area, and rain that is predicted sometimes doesn’t arrive.

A standard window cleaning will not remove stubborn hard water stains. Hard water staining occurs when minerals such as calcium and magnesium from sprinkler overspray, hose water, or other water sources dry on the glass and become bonded to the surface over time. The longer these deposits remain, the more difficult they become to remove.

Regular window cleaning can help prevent mineral deposits from building up and reduce the risk of permanent glass damage. Once hard water stains have etched into the glass, they may require specialized restoration or, in severe cases, glass replacement.

Various chemicals and abrasives can help remove some hard water stains, but this falls under glass restoration rather than standard window cleaning. We can evaluate the condition of your glass and discuss the best options available.

Tap water contains dissolved minerals like calcium and magnesium that leave spots as water evaporates. Our pure water filtration system strips out 100% of these minerals. When applied with our water-fed pole systems, the purified water lifts grime naturally and dries completely clear on the glass leaving your home windows streak-free without chemical films that attract dust.

Also, using a water-fed pole from the ground increases safety as we are able to reduce ladder work.

For exterior-only window cleaning, you do not need to be home as long your screens can be removed from the outside and outdoor water spigots are accessible. We will also need side gates unlocked, and pets are safely indoors. For full-service residential interior and exterior window cleaning, someone over 18 must be present to let us inside.
