Most homeowners benefit from having their windows cleaned one to two times per year, depending on location, weather exposure, and personal preference. Homes in dusty, high-traffic, or storm-prone areas may benefit from more frequent cleaning.
How often windows should be cleaned depends on several factors, including exposure to dirt, pollen, rain, and nearby construction. Interior windows may need less frequent cleaning than exterior glass, while ground-level windows often collect dirt faster.
While every home is different, common recommendations include:
Once a year for low-exposure homes
Twice a year for most residential properties
More frequent cleaning for homes near busy roads, construction, or heavy tree cover
Regular window cleaning improves visibility, allows more natural light into the home, and helps identify issues such as cracked glass, failed seals, or damaged screens early.
In some cases, cleaning can reveal issues that require glass replacement rather than routine maintenance.
