Thanks so much for sharing this video. It saved me from blasting and hosing my screens :). I’ve cleaned all of my 1 story home screens in about 1 hour with one bucket of water and few drops of dish soap and just a normal paint roller. By the time I finished the first ones were ready to be installed. This method is greener than any other. Great job !!!
well if you're out there struggling with the entire world hating you because you're a business owner it's all about being green I guess LOL LOL your clients really don't care about being green if they do fire them! LOL
This video right here got a big tip from the customer,they said nobody has ever did their screens so clean and so fast. I appreciate your channel,if we were in the same country,I would offer any drink of your choice,thanks man
Thank you! I’m planning to use your tricks on my own home when we finally get spring. It’s really nice of you to share it for the entrepreneurs out there!
Thanks for sharing all your skills that have taken a long time to learn- I really appreciate. Denis. I can tell when someone is good at there job most of the time because they make it look easy. That's also a really good idea having training videos for your employees getting every one on the same page.
Good tips, but I'm amazed at how much focus is put on getting things as fast as possible, rather than doing it as well as possible. Sure, if you have to do 70 per day, speed is important, but if I'm hiring you and paying for the work, I'm less impressed at how fast you got it done and more impressed at how conscientious you are about doing a completely thorough job. Suggestion: do all three. Brush with the brush, then polish with the cloth, THEN water-load and smack it. That'll not only do a really thorough job, it'll also communicate to your customer that you take their trust seriously and want to do the best possible job. Good luck growing your company. Keep in mind that your customers' impressions about how good of a job you and your employees do is more important in the long run than putting the first priority on speed alone.
Some good ways to clean screens. I suggest cleaning under the springs, I've had home owners that checked that. If there's a ledge on the bottom clean the groove well, that shows much
I personally get a bucket with a little soap water and bleach and clean them against a exterior wall or flat on a concrete surface with a soft brush so that I can scrub them good and so the screen doesn’t get pushed out. I’ll then spray them off and give them a few taps on each side and stack them off to the side. By the time I’m done cleaning windows they are usually dry.
Yes, but I'm a little bit too busy to deal with giving every crew a gallon of bleach Reinventing how to clean a screen, having them find a place on the ground to scrub them, the list goes on and on
Great video but do you have any advice on how to clean over spray of paint? We had someone stain our deck and all our porch screens are now brown. Is there anyway to clean them or do I have to replace all my screens now?
Do you ever run into screens that have deteriorated plastic joints that are just barely holding the screen together? I basically use the same technique you do but thank you for some of the pointers that will speed things up. Any suggestions on deteriorating frames? Did you say you charge $3.00 per screen? I have been charging $2.00 but it doesn't seem to be enough.
Abundantly useful content my friend!! Exceptionally informative! Couple questions; why don’t u hose the screen down to rinse the soap off? (Probably not necessary) And last question, when u smack the screen on the bucket to purge the dirt off, aren’t u contaminating your bucket of soapy water? So fresh bucket for every screen, or not necessary? And forgive me if u addressed these in the video, I have it playing while “working”, so can’t pay full attention.
Yeah tons of water in the bucket should last you at least 20 screens you could refill the bucket around the house when you get to the next spicket if you want, the reason I don't hose the screens down is because I clean the screens window to window this is just the fastest way to do it unless you have like 90 screens and you clean them all in one pile and they are all the same size I can go into the math and a very long explanation but seriously just do what is in the videos as a practice as if you were a doctor continue to practice it over and over and over trust me and you will be fine!
I used to do it this way and could never see the value in the screen washers. I got a Aztec cleaner recently - so worth the money. Get them cleaner, faster and easier on the back
The way I did it was just under 20 seconds, and I leave the screen by each window and pop it in afterward there's no way that that Aztec thing saves time, unless you have about 50 screens at one house to do, but if they come out from the exterior we pop them out and leave them by the window and carry the bucket around then pop it back on the window because we have to carry the bucket around to clean the windows anyway, this is definitely the fastest way especially if you have an assistant doing it while you're cleaning the windows when you leave when you're done with the last window you pop the screen on and the job is complete!!!.... you don't have to walk around the house finding the right screen for each window and spending another 45 minutes when you do about 4 or 5 houses a day you cannot have this type of finish.....
If you are cleaning the screens inside the home you must put down some plastic or thick cloth to protect from getting water on the carpets , wooden floors and furniture. What kind of cloth did you say you are using for the polishing.
I never said I clean the screen inside the house with water and flicking it all over the place...lol... it's just the green used Surgical ones you get online, if the screens are not that bad I can clean them from the inside by just polishing them down real quick you're wasting your time if you're going to be putting down tarps and stuff like that you might as well just go outside
Just the right amount of dawn like a dash of dawn if you put too much it'll be very hard to remove the studs just the right amount and it causes the dirt to attach to it and flicks off with the water

I found a way to clean screens without taking them out. I first dust the area, clean the tracks with my window mop with a solution of Dawn and white vinegar mixed up in cool water. I begin to clean from the outside with a pole then do the insides. I do the windows and the screens together. Clients have bad screens, and some will break if you try to take them out. I do have a few rags with me. I do the outside first.
First off thanks for doing this! BUT! You shouldn’t hit them that hard! Rewatch your video after you say “you can hit them pretty hard”, pause it at 5:35 and look at the two (2) points of bends/bows! First from short corners your left hand side (watchers right) the contact points are bent! Then look from that corner to his left hand there is clearly a bowing! Im not criticizing you im just pointing this out. Instead of slamming it on bucket, use water hose to rinse it off, then the rag method works same I lightly flick screens with finger as well you are just, knocking excessive water off then set in sunlight to dry!
then you need to check out my video I forgot what the title is I think it's called brushing screens versus cleaning screens I let them dry and I show you the difference you're welcome lol!!!!
A customer wanted the screens cleaned as a stubborn union window cleaner I only wanted clean windows. But the customer made me think there is you can make more money by charging for screens
C & C Window Cleaning LLC. It depends the day i also flick them like you but 90% my customer are repeated every 6 months so i just give them a quick wipe...
I guess I must be an IGNORANT person, I clean the screen while in place by wiping them with my wet scrubbing mop. Oops I have sliding door screens that don't have to be removed.
When you're cleaning up words to 45 of these per-day needing all of them to turn out at least 95% clean and doing this 6 to 7 days a week that's what this video is for it's not for a retired old man taking his entire day to wash all of his screens with a garden hose
this is the best window screen washing video that you will ever see! I totally loved your question though! I hate seeing guys clean windows that are already clean and say this is how you clean a window LOL, I believe some point in this video I said the screen was already cleaned this is exactly how you clean a dirty screen is exactly how you clean a dirty screen even though I clean to clean screen this is exactly how you should clean it so although it's a great question this is the process for cleaning a dirty screen!
I just try to to prepare each of my employees with the proper techniques, and my trainers and managers with the proper video I typically don't work with any of my employees, they have much nicer people to be there boss LOL thanks for commenting
C & C Window Cleaning LLC. I'm glad to hear you let people go off on there own. I imagine they prefer it, and make sure they stand perfect when cleaning screens. Also if any of your employees read this comment go out buy your preferred gear and work for yourself, your doing most of the work anyways
the meager mechanic I guess you could just send that message to anybody anywhere who has a job, just tell them all to go to their own work and not have a job LOL
C & C Window Cleaning LLC. Window cleaning is easy and owning a restaurant or factory requires money up front. You can clean one house and probably make what your paying a week. For the cost of stack ladders a bucket soap and hand tools you can start cleaning windows. They can also go to your jobs bid them less and just do what you was paying hourly, plus its no different for the business or home owner because they never saw you other than to bid the house/business and collect if you do that in person.
Yeah I've had some guys do that it doesn't hurt my business at all it just hurts the dishonest employee trust me you can't get ahead being a sneaky Pete
Awesome instruction! I’m a teacher and I appreciate you going over the technique more than once.

Hi, great video! Are you using a paint roller?
What kind of roller are you using and where do I find it
How would you handle very dusty and oily screens?
Great video but do you have any advice on how to clean over spray of paint? We had someone stain our deck and all our porch screens are now brown. Is there anyway to clean them or do I have to replace all my screens now?
Thank you!
you're awesome thank you!!
What tool did you use on the last one?
Thank you for your videos! Is using the customer's hose a good option....?
Yes....they dont care
You're awesome and an incredible teacher! However the traffic noise was deafening!!

Why a paint roller?
What about an air compressor have u ever tried it?
This is great! Where did you get the cleaning device with the handle?
Uuuuunmmm home depot lol
I used a normal paint roller and worked fine
You like to Keep It Simple 👍👍
Those screens look like mine.. I'm trying to figure out how to remove them without making the frame bend? Do you have a video of that?
Yes I do I believe it is the five steps of window cleaning

This is a window washing mop that you could get at Home Depot, I believe it is 16 to 18 in
What soap u put ?? Dishwashing soap ?
Just the right amount of dawn like a dash of dawn if you put too much it'll be very hard to remove the studs just the right amount and it causes the dirt to attach to it and flicks off with the water
What is that tool you are using to wash the screen with?

What is equivalent to dawn in Australia?

then at 6:10 he corrected himself
3:40 skip the intro
Who would have thought there was that much to cleaning a screen
And a stance to go along with it!!
95-99% clean...... Heisenberg!
I want to see when it dries if it is going to be clean.
then you need to check out my video I forgot what the title is I think it's called brushing screens versus cleaning screens I let them dry and I show you the difference you're welcome lol!!!!
Don’t give up your day job!
You bent the frame
No I did not!
C & C Window Cleaning LLC. Omg that’s super bent
A customer wanted the screens cleaned as a stubborn union window cleaner I only wanted clean windows. But the customer made me think there is you can make more money by charging for screens
Avoid soap. Other than that great demonstration. Soap if not perfectly rinsed out with tons of water attracts dirt.
Are you kidding me?
This is as useful as knowing you can use a weed b gone pump to spray stain a fence. Bet you didn't know that.
Pumps scare me
I wash my screens after im done with all the windows the wash the screens with the same water and dry with a towel.
You mean like a bath towel? Or you just flick them off like I did?

C & C Window Cleaning LLC. Hey wats the going price per panel in your area??
Pretty much between 9 and $12 per window inside outside and Screen some guys charge $5 per piece of glass both sides
Compared to the beginning of the video looks like you bend the screen by hitting it on the bucket.
Um ........no....
🤣🤣🤣 Don’t do what this guy is teaching.
Never hit the frame of the screen on anything.
Even tho you say your screen pro I’m gonna try it I’ll let you know
🤣
How do you clean fixed screens?
It's pretty similar but you need to use a damp cloth for the interior to wipe the inside down
@@ccwindowcleaningllc.4706 thanks. Will try that. With a microfiber cloth or any ordinary cloth. Mixture of soap and water or plain water?
