Being the owner of a San Diego window cleaning company has it advantages. But perfect weather does not equal spotless and clear windows.
As a matter of fact, because of the beautiful weather, being San Diegans, we take it for granted and assume our windows can’t ever get dirty. Not so.
Now before we begin, let’s get one thing straight. The window cleaning tips I give you are not just for Southern Californians. No, these tips can be used and applied no matter where you find yourself here on earth.

But wait just one minute. Before you even think about taking on such a big job as cleaning your windows, and I’m not saying you can’t, let’s get the procedure right. And when you do, you will see how much easier it makes this job.
Ready for the how to? Here goes lickity split.
The first thing you need is the right tools for the job. This isn’t going to be as simple as breaking out the windex and some paper towels and wiping down your glass table. No, this will be glass that has been attacked by the elements, the weather, and even birds and insects and whatever else ran into your windows.
So what will be the tools that will be needed for the job. Well it certainly won’t be windex and some paper towels. It won’t be much more complicated than that. The tools you will need is a squeegee and a spray bottle and then you can use the paper towels.
Use all these tools, and cleaning these windows will be a snap.

Oops, I forgot one last ingredient, and you will need plenty of this. And this final ingredient is elbow grease.
Remember when you woke up all gung ho ready to take on the windows? Well after the third window or so, that little bit of elbow grease might just not be enough.
Well when you do, don’t forget where you got the advice. Your wonderful local San Diego window washing company, who won’t mind adding some elbow grease.
