Residential Exterior Cleaning
Clean Windows Are the Final 10%
We finish what house washing starts — streak-free exterior glass that lets the light back in.
What it is
Window Washing, explained simply.
A freshly washed house deserves freshly washed windows. We hand-clean exterior glass with professional squeegees and purified water systems to deliver streak-free results, even on hard water spots. Ideal as an add-on to house washing or as standalone service for ground and second-story exteriors.

A closer look
Everything worth knowing.
Clean windows are the final 10% that make a freshly washed home actually look finished. Pollen, hard-water spray-off from sprinklers, dust, and tree sap accumulate on exterior glass and dull the entire front of a home — especially after a house wash makes the surrounding siding bright again.
Admiral focuses on exterior glass: hand-cleaning with professional squeegees and, where appropriate, a pure-water-fed pole system for upper-story windows. The pure-water system uses deionized water that dries spot-free, no detergent residue, no streaks.
Window washing is the most underrated curb-appeal upgrade. Pair it with a house wash, gutter clean, and concrete clean for a complete refresh.
Surfaces & materials
We tune the method to the material.
Single & double-hung
Most common — squeegee + frame wipe-down. Screens can be removed and rinsed on request.
Casement & picture windows
Large panels show streaks worst — pure water finish gives the cleanest look.
French and divided light
Multiple panes, more detail work. Priced by pane on dense grids.
Storm windows
Outer pane cleaned; interior pane requires interior access (add-on).
What we see go wrong
Common mistakes (and how we avoid them).
Cleaning in direct sun
Solution dries before the squeegee gets there — instant streaks.
Reusing dirty water
Just smears mineral residue across every pane.
Pressure washing windows
Old caulk and seals can fail under direct spray. We rinse, not blast.
What affects price
Honest pricing factors.
- Number of panes and frames
- Single vs. multi-story
- Screen cleaning add-on
- Hard-water staining (separate treatment)
When to book
Seasonality in East TN.
Spring (post-pollen) and fall (post-leaf-drop) are the high-demand seasons. Bundle with house washing for the best result and price.
