Our Bellingham window cleaning services will help keep your windows sparkly clean!
How often do you clean the exterior of your windows? Probably not very much! It’s not exactly something people put high on their lists of favorite things to do, and a lot of people don’t have the equipment necessary, especially when it comes to reaching upper windows and others in places that are hard to get to.
Keeping your windows clean is important for obvious reasons such as letting sunlight penetrate the home or office and being able to enjoy clear views inside and outside the building. However, there are other good reasons to keep your windows clean, namely that not doing so could be creating problems and costing you money in more ways than one.
Glass Breaks Down Over Time
What a lot of people probably don’t know is that glass is actually a porous material. Over time, debris from dead insects, construction activity, dirt, minerals from hard water, and more accumulates on the surface. Eventually, the dirt, grime, and other debris begin to break down the surface of your glass. Thus, cleaner windows last longer.
Dirty Windows Can Cost You In Other Ways
When damaged seals begin to leak, your energy use becomes less efficient. The windows release heat and admit cold, raising energy bills in winter as your heating system works harder, and in hot weather, warm air can get in and cool air can get out, putting more strain on the AC system.
Moisture can get in as fogging, condensation, or drips. This can lead to water damage, including mold problems. So it’s not just damaging to windows themselves that can end up costing you a lot of money.
Cleaner Windows Are An Aesthetic Plus
Responsible homeowners are always looking for ways to increase their home’s curb appeal, and keeping windows clean is one of the easier ways to do that. Prospective buyers will get a better first impression of your home, and they’ll be more likely to want to come inside for a closer look if they like what they see from the outside. Any home that from the outside seems to need work or isn’t nicely kept is going to turn a lot of people away. Nice clean windows also can be part of a larger effort to increase a home’s value, along with great landscaping, good paint, etc.
Even if you’re not planning to sell your home anytime soon or ever at all, you’ll still benefit from clean windows by enjoying a clear view outside. If you live in an area with a lot of wildlife or natural beauty, you’ll appreciate having unmarred views of those things from inside your home, especially if, for example, you want to photograph animals without disturbing them.
Professional Window Cleaning Is Also Easier and Safer For You
Cleaning windows on your own usually requires spending time on ladders and maybe on roofs. There are always fall risks with that, and cleaning windows increases the risk due to potentially slippery conditions.
Plus, not everyone has ladders and other equipment such as extension poles that are up to the task. And not everyone has the time or inclination to do this work even if they know it’s important.
