    Has anyone used a window washing company, recently, that they can recommend?

    We've used Larry Miller to clean our siding previously and they did a great job. Quick, cleaned up after themselves and did a great job. While we didn't have them clean our windows, our siding looked new when they were done, so I would assume their window cleaning is just as good.

    We ended up using Crystal Window Cleaning Company. Excellent job and price very reasonable. Thanks Tech91 for the recommendation.

    Well, Larry Miller sold his business.
    Anyone have recent experiences with window cleaning companies?
    Just want the outside of the windows done.

    I recommend "A Better View, Inc." that is owned by Melvin Aldana, who was one of Larry Miller's employees and does a great job since opening his own business in 2018 - here is the link: https://betterviewinc.com/

    Cliff, if you wouldn't mind letting us know your experience if you end up using them. We used Clearly Amazing and they were good but not great. Thanks

    Will do. Clearly Amazing quoted me $500. Seemed like a lot for exterior only.
    A Better View quoted me $270.
    Getting one more estimate.
    Obviously, Clearly Amazing is out. Almost twice as much.

    I live in a TH and my outside windows 'only' quote from Clearly Amazing was $225 and that included the screens.

    6 doubles, 2 patio doors, one single and a door transom. So less than half the number you have. I did not hire them.

    Cliff, did you end up using A Better View for your window cleaning? We want to get scheduled for Spring power washing and outside window cleaning and just wanted to see if it was worth contacting them. Thanks!
