Pressure Washing Window Frames
Pressure washing is one of the best ways to keep your residential properties clean. However, it can be difficult to know what cleaning projects benefit from the high-powered water sprays of pressure washing and what projects need a lighter touch.
When you're looking for professional window cleaning, it's important to take into account the structure of your window frames. That's why the experts at Ivan's Extreme Power Wash are here to explain how to take care of your window frames throughout the cleaning process.
Vinyl Window Frames
Vinyl window frames are a great addition to any home. The frame provides better sound-proofing, reduced energy expenses, and improved comfort. Another great reason to choose vinyl windows is that they require minimal upkeep.
The best part about vinyl frames is that they're affordable, and you can get special shaped windows with vinyl.
If you work with a pressure washing company for your window cleaning needs, you'll find that vinyl holds up well to the cleaning process. We'll check to make sure all seams are still fully intact to ensure there isn't any leaking throughout the cleaning process.
Aluminum Window Frames
Aluminum window frames are just as affordable as vinyl frames. They also don't require a large amount of maintenance. Aluminum frames are lightweight and long-lasting. You can choose multiple different shapes and colors for your window frames if you choose aluminum.
The aluminum can stand up to the elements well, which means you shouldn't need to update your windows for a long time. The metal can also be anodized or have a baked-on finish so you don't need to repaint it.
Like with vinyl, it's important your window cleaning experts check the aluminum for corrosion. While aluminum is a durable metal, it can corrode over time if exposed to salt in the air or water.
Wooden Window Frames
Wooden window frames are good for more than just aesthetics. Wood is a bad conductor of heat, which makes it a great choice for insulation. Quality wood frames are the best insulators available today. Wood also lasts longer than aluminum or vinyl. With proper care, wood can last a lifetime.
The downside to this is that wood frames require more maintenance than other options. You'll also find that wood frames tend to cost more than other options. While the original installation cost is high, over time wooden frames are cheaper than other frames because they don't need to be replaced.
When investing in professional window cleaning, it's important for your pressure washing experts to know what type of wood your frames are made of. Softwood isn't as strong as hardwood and can gouge if it isn't carefully considered.
