Five steps for window cleaning: Bringing natural light to a bright home.

Master the correct window cleaning techniques to remove accumulated dust and water stains, making glass crystal clear again and enhancing the lighting and texture of your home space.

When cleaning windows, you should first remove surface dust and then use a suitable glass cleaner to wipe them. The key is to use a rubber squeegee to scrape off sewage from top to bottom to avoid leaving water marks. 壹家壹清潔專家 reminds you: do not perform dangerous operations at heights; ensure the safety and accessibility of the cleaning location.

Preparation and safety rules

Check the condition of the windows before cleaning. Remember that you must not perform dangerous actions at heights; if the windows are at a high position or require disassembly of the glass, be sure to seek professional assistance. Cleaning agents should be selected according to the window frame and glass material and tested in advance to avoid damage.

  • Tools: Microfiber cloth, rubber squeegee, pH-neutral glass cleaner
  • Equipment: Wear gloves to protect your hands from contact with chemicals
  • Material testing: Test the cleaner's reaction in a corner of the glass first

Window cleaning operation steps

Following a professional process can prevent water stains and keep windows bright for a long time.

  1. Dust removal: Use a dry cloth to sweep away dust from frame edges and glass surfaces first
  2. Application: Evenly spray or apply glass cleaner
  3. Scraping: Use a rubber squeegee to scrape water from top to bottom in an "S" path
  4. Edging: Finally, use a microfiber cloth to wipe away residual moisture on the frames

Common mistakes and precautions

Many people like to clean under the hot sun, but this causes the cleaner to dry too quickly and leave stains. It is recommended to choose a cloudy day. Also, it is strictly forbidden to mix bleach or other cleaners together to avoid producing dangerous toxic gases.

Before using bleach, please first understand Method for using bleach from the Centre for Health Protection(opens in a new window), and operate according to the product label.

Why are there still water stains after wiping the windows?
This is usually caused by too much residual cleaner or an incorrect angle when using the rubber squeegee. Please ensure that you wipe thoroughly with a dry cloth in the final step, or maintain even pressure when using the squeegee.
Can I use bleach at the same time when cleaning windows?
Bleach is corrosive, and mixing it with other cleaners will produce deadly toxic gases. For window cleaning, please be sure to use only dedicated cleaners; it is strictly forbidden to mix any agents.
