The homes in The Preserve at Corkscrew are known for their elegant designs, open floor plans, and views of pristine preserves and lakes. Whether you’re enjoying a peaceful sunset through your lanai or watching wildlife from your second-story windows, one thing is clear—clean windows make all the difference.
But what about those pesky window screens? Cleaning them properly is essential if you want truly spotless glass. Let’s walk through the best method for cleaning windows with screens, and why homeowners in Estero’s gated communities like The Preserve at Corkscrew trust Clear Quality Window Cleaning for the job.
Why Screens Need Special Attention
Your screens aren’t just decorative—they serve as a barrier against debris, bugs, pollen, and even salt air in humid Florida climates. But over time, those screens can get:
- Clogged with dust and pollen, reducing airflow
- Stained by hard water or sprinkler spray
- Coated in mold or mildew from rain and humidity
- Warped or sagging, making it hard to clean the window behind them
If you’re just cleaning your glass with the screens still on, you’re not getting the full benefits of professional window cleaning in Estero.
The Proper Way to Clean Windows with Screens
🛠️ Step 1: Remove the Screens
We carefully remove each screen before cleaning. This prevents smearing dirt onto the glass and ensures a deep clean on both sides.
💧 Step 2: Rinse and Scrub the Screens
Screens are gently cleaned with soft brushes and a mild, eco-safe solution to avoid tearing or warping. A light rinse with purified water ensures no residue is left behind.
🪟 Step 3: Clean the Window Glass
We then use deionized water and a water-fed pole system for streak-free results—especially important on second-story windows and large picture panes found throughout homes in The Preserve at Corkscrew.
🧼 Step 4: Clean the Tracks and Frames
Dust and debris collect in the tracks, which can cause your windows to jam. Our residential window cleaning team clears these out and finishes with a frame wipe-down.
🔁 Step 5: Reinstall Screens Carefully
Once everything is clean and dry, screens are carefully reinstalled—aligned and secure so they don’t sag or rattle in the wind.
