How it works
- Walk the rooms and prioritize the glass guests will see first
- Dry-wipe loose dirt, wash with mild solution, squeegee or lint-free cloth dry, working out of direct sun where possible
- Clean screens, sills and tracks, then reinstall screens and lock the sashes
- Referred out: fogged or cracked insulated glass goes to a glazing company, and glass that can only be reached from a roof or lift goes to a commercial window service
