✨ How Often Should You Get Your Windows Cleaned?

If you’ve ever looked at your windows and thought “Didn’t I just clean those?” — you’re not alone. Dirty windows sneak up on homeowners fast, especially in Fort Worth’s mix of wind, pollen, and unpredictable weather.

So how often should you actually get your windows cleaned?

Let’s break it down by lifestyle, home type, and what’s best for keeping your windows — and your views — crystal clear.


🏡 General Rule for Most Homes: Every 3–6 Months

Most residential homes in Fort Worth benefit from professional window cleaning 2–4 times a year — or every 3–6 months.

Here’s why:

  • Dust and pollen buildup happens fast in North Texas

  • Hard water stains set in from sprinklers and rain

  • Clean windows improve natural light and curb appeal

  • Regular cleanings prevent long-term glass damage


📍 Fort Worth Climate = More Frequent Cleaning

Our Fort Worth-area customers face unique local challenges:

  • Spring = pollen storms

  • Summer = dusty wind and sprinkler overspray

  • Fall = leaves and tree sap

  • Winter = rain streaks and mildew buildup

For this reason, many of our customers prefer a quarterly cleaning schedule (every 3 months) to stay ahead of grime.


🧽 By Home Type & Lifestyle

🏠 Single-Family Homes:

Every 3–6 months depending on trees, pets, and sprinkler exposure

🏢 Townhomes & Condos:

Every 6 months (unless you're near construction or heavy dust)

🏘️ Homes for Sale:

Get a deep window cleaning before listing — clean windows boost curb appeal and can help your home sell faster.

🐶 Homes with Pets or Kids:

You’ll probably want more frequent interior cleaning — paw prints, smudges, and nose art build up fast!
