There’s a prevalent misconception in window cleaning that a surprising number of homeowners believe is true: rainwater makes for dirtier windows. This idea was born from the ugly white streaks rainwater leaves on window panes. However, there’s a different reason behind these water stains and knowing the true cause can help you keep your windows clean in the future.
Our experienced specialists at Sunco Window Cleaning have dealt with countless stained windows in the past and they can tell you where these unsightly blotches come from and how best to get rid of them.
Have you ever done splashed a little bit of water on your windows while power washing your siding? Or what about when your sprinklers go off and get your windows wet? If so, then you’ll notice they don’t always leave a mark on the windows when they dry. This is because the stains you see are not caused by water. Oftentimes, they are caused by minerals that get left behind once the water evaporates.
Your windows, particularly the caulk that keeps the glass airtight against the sash, are prone to dust, dirt and debris like pollen. These can accumulate over the course of days. When the rains pour, they get splashed around and spread throughout the glass. That’s why it’s recommended to keep your windows clean regularly, preventing muck from getting on the glass in the first place.
Like gutter or roof cleaning, window cleaning sounds like an easy enough chore to do on your own. However, you might not get a thorough enough clean if you rely solely on DIY. Additionally, you also run the risk of breaking your windows (which could be costly to replace) if you do it improperly. It’s perfectly fine to have professionals do it for you to make sure you get the best clean possible.
