Cleaning your windows is an important part of maintaining their appearance and functionality. Here are some tips for cleaning your windows:

  1. Start by removing any dirt or debris from the window frame and sill using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
  2. Mix a solution of warm water and mild soap, such as dish soap or a specialist window cleaning solution.
  3. Apply the solution to the window using a soft cloth or sponge. Be sure to clean the entire surface of the window, including the frame and sill.
  4. Rinse the window thoroughly with clean water, and then use a squeegee or a clean, lint-free cloth to dry the window.
  5. For extra shine, you can use a specialist glass cleaner to polish the window. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.
