Arlington Heights is one of the larger villages in Cook County’s northwest suburbs, with a well-developed mix of residential and commercial areas.
Arlington Heights was an early commuter suburb, and that history shows in its housing. The village has historic single-family homes alongside modern condos, apartments, and townhouses. The downtown area has seen significant recent development, with new condos, restaurants, and businesses creating a walkable central district.
Outside downtown, residential neighborhoods range from established single-family streets to newer townhome developments. That variety means different exterior cleaning needs across the village. Historic wood siding requires gentle methods. Newer construction accumulates grime on vinyl and fiber cement. Multi-story condos need safe access at height.
We know the prewar and midcentury blocks around the race track and downtown, where mature silver maples drop twice a season and the second-story gutters can’t be reached from the driveway — we stage off the parkway instead. North of Palatine Road, the newer subdivisions run vinyl and Hardie siding that gets soft washed at low pressure, not blasted, and most of those HOAs want a certificate of insurance on file before anyone sets foot on the property. We also know which downtown townhome associations bill the management company instead of the unit owner.
Gutter Cleaning in Arlington Heights
On the prewar blocks around downtown the second-story gutters cannot be reached from the drive, so we stage off the parkway and flush every downspout.
From $150 for one-story homes and $195 for two-story, including downspouts and haul-away.
Window Cleaning in Arlington Heights
A historic single-family home and a downtown condo carry very different glass, so window cleaning in Arlington Heights is priced per window, counted on your home.
From $7 per exterior window and $10 inside and out, sills and frames included. A $150 job minimum applies.
Window Screen Repair & Cleaning in Arlington Heights
We machine-wash removable screens for $5 each when added to a window cleaning. Torn mesh repair starts at $35 per standard window screen. We also re-screen door screens, porches and four-season rooms. Specialty panels or damaged wooden trim are quoted before work begins.
Pressure & Soft Washing in Arlington Heights
Vinyl and Hardie siding north of Palatine Road gets a soft wash at low pressure. Full pressure is kept for the concrete drive, walks and patio.
Driveways from $240, decks and patios from $210. House soft washing from $295, fascia, soffits and the outside of the gutters included.
Arlington Heights — Gutter Cleaning
A homeowner in Arlington Heights called for gutter cleaning on a two-story house built in 2005 — roughly 3,700 square feet, the kind of long roof run where one packed downspout backs water up the whole line.
| Home | Two-story, built 2005, roughly 3,700 square feet |
|---|---|
| Technician | Konstantine M. |
| Completed | December 2024 |
| Price | $210 |
What was included. December in the northwest suburbs means the oaks and maples have finished dropping and the debris is wet and heavy, so this is the visit that matters before the first freeze. Konstantine arrived inside the 2–4 PM window, cleared and flushed the system, and had the job finished and invoiced the same afternoon. Paid the same day. One visit, $210.

We design, install and take down Christmas lights on the same roofs we clean the rest of the year, so we already know how to get up there safely. Lights, install, takedown, storage and in-season repair are all included, and nothing is left on the house in January.

We start installing in October, so Arlington Heights homes that book early get first pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Arlington Heights’ mix of historic homes, mid-rise condos, and suburban neighborhoods create varied cleaning needs?
Each building type requires different access methods and cleaning techniques. Historic wood siding gets soft washing. Glass-heavy downtown condos need water-fed poles for safe upper-floor access. Suburban ranch homes are straightforward. We identify the right approach before starting.
Can you clean multi-story condos and townhomes in Arlington Heights’ downtown redevelopment area?
We handle multi-story residential buildings using water-fed pole systems and coordinated access with building management. Service is scheduled around resident activity.
How much does window cleaning cost for an Arlington Heights home?
Most single-family homes range from $200 to $400 for interior and exterior cleaning. Downtown condos and townhomes are quoted based on unit size and access requirements.
Do you provide HOA-level exterior cleaning for Arlington Heights common areas?
Shared walkways, parking surfaces, building exteriors, and common area windows are all in scope. We coordinate scheduling and access with the property management team and provide the documentation boards require.
What should an Arlington Heights homeowner prioritize if they can only afford one exterior service per year?
Gutter cleaning. Clogged gutters cause the most expensive damage (foundation issues, fascia rot, landscape erosion). One thorough cleaning in late fall after leaf drop prevents the biggest risks.
