Living in the Treasure Valley means enjoying all four seasons — but each one brings different challenges when it comes to keeping your windows clean. Here’s a simple seasonal guide to help you know when to schedule professional window cleaning:

🌸 Spring

After a long winter, windows are often covered in grime, hard water spots, and debris. Spring is the perfect time for a thorough cleaning to let the sunlight back in and freshen up your home.
👉 Recommended: Full exterior and interior cleaning

☀️ Summer

Dust, pollen, and sprinkler overspray (especially with hard water) can dirty windows quickly. Clean windows also boost curb appeal if you're hosting or selling your home.
👉 Recommended: Exterior maintenance clean or touch-up

🍂 Fall

As leaves fall and rain increases, debris can build up on window sills and tracks. It’s also smart to clean windows before winter grime sets in.
👉 Recommended: Full exterior cleaning, especially before holidays

❄️ Winter

While not ideal for outdoor cleanings, interior windows can still be cleaned to maximize light and comfort during shorter days.
👉 Recommended: Interior clean, especially for large or high windows

🧼 Final Tip:

A quarterly cleaning schedule is ideal for homes that want consistently clear views and long-lasting glass. And if you're in a high-traffic or dusty area, bi-monthly may be even better!

Sure, sparkling windows look great—but there’s more to window cleaning than meets the eye. Here are some often-overlooked benefits of hiring a professional like Boise Bright Window Cleaning:

💡 1. More Natural Light

Clean windows allow more sunlight into your home, which can brighten your space and even improve your mood and energy levels.

💸 2. Lower Energy Bills

Dirty windows can block sunlight and affect your home’s natural heating. Clean windows = better temperature regulation and lower heating costs in winter.

🪟 3. Longer Window Lifespan

Dirt, dust, and hard water buildup can cause etching and permanent damage over time. Routine cleaning helps prevent glass corrosion and extends the life of your windows.

🔍 4. Early Damage Detection

A trained cleaner can spot issues like cracked seals, water damage, or broken screens before they become expensive repairs.

🏠 5. Better Curb Appeal

Whether you’re selling your home or just take pride in it, clean windows add a noticeable boost in appearance from the street.

When you hire professionals, you’re not just paying for clean glass — you’re investing in the health, safety, and beauty of your home.

Cleaning your own windows seems like a simple weekend task — but is it worth it? Here's a breakdown of when a DIY job works, and when it’s best to call in the pros.

🧼 DIY Works When:

• You have easy-to-reach windows (single story, ground level)

• You're doing light maintenance (dust, smudges, or fingerprints)

• You’re cleaning interior windows only

In those cases, a microfiber cloth and a simple vinegar solution can do the trick.

⚠️ Call the Pros When:

• You have multi-story windows or a steep roofline

• You’re dealing with hard water stains or mineral buildup

• You need to clean tracks, screens, and frames thoroughly

• Safety becomes a concern (ladders, uneven ground, etc.)

🛠 Why Professionals Are Worth It:

• We use specialized tools like a 30 ft carbon fiber water-fed pole

• Our purified water systems leave no streaks or residue

• You save time, avoid risk, and get flawless results

Hiring a pro is about getting it done right, safely, and efficiently—and sometimes that peace of mind is priceless.
