Commercial cleaning services help businesses keep their properties clean, professional and easier to maintain throughout the year. In a busy city like Chicago, dirt builds up fast around entrances, sidewalks, windows and high-traffic areas.
Ernest Windows provides commercial cleaning services for businesses across Chicago that want their properties to stay clean, professional. Some places only need regular exterior cleaning. Others need deeper work after months of buildup, weather, and foot traffic.
Commercial Power Washing
A dirty exterior changes how people see a business. It happens quickly too. Sidewalk stains, dark buildup near entrances, and grime around loading areas make the property feel older than it really is.
We handle commercial power washing for:
- Storefronts
- Sidewalks
- Parking areas
- Entryways
- Exterior walls
- Dumpster pads
A lot of Chicago properties deal with buildup from traffic, weather, and winter salt. Some areas near downtown collect dirt much faster than quieter suburbs.
We adjust the pressure depending on the surface. Concrete needs different treatment than painted walls or siding.
Ernest Windows works with office buildings, retail centers, restaurants and other commercial properties that need regular exterior cleaning.
Window Cleaning for Commercial Buildings
Clean windows make a noticeable difference, especially for offices and storefronts where appearance matters every day.
We clean:
- Exterior glass
- Interior windows
- Entry glass
- Large storefront panels
- Multi-level commercial windows
Some buildings only need routine maintenance. Others call after construction dust or long periods without cleaning.
Either way, we keep the process simple and professional.
Gutter Cleaning for Commercial Properties
Commercial gutters clog faster than most people expect. Leaves, debris, and standing water create overflow problems that eventually stain walls and damage surrounding areas.
Our gutter cleaning service includes:
- Debris removal
- Downspout clearing
- Overflow checks
- Basic inspection
Properties with large roof lines or nearby trees usually need more frequent cleaning, especially during fall around Chicago neighborhoods with older landscaping.
Commercial Cleaning Cost
Commercial cleaning costs depend on the type of service, the size of the property, and how much work is involved. For example, power washing for a one-story property typically ranges from $250–$350, while larger two-story and three-story properties can range from $350–$800. Gutter cleaning prices vary based on the size and height of the building, with many residential-style properties starting around $109 and increasing for larger structures. Window cleaning is generally priced according to the number of windows and whether you need inside-and-outside cleaning or exterior-only service. Because every commercial property is different, Ernest Windows provides customized estimates to ensure accurate pricing. All quoted prices include labor, professional equipment, and our satisfaction guarantee, with no hidden fees.
Common Exterior Problems Around Chicago
Chicago weather is rough on commercial properties. Snow, rain, traffic, and pollution leave buildup behind throughout the year.
We regularly clean:
- Salt stains after winter
- Oil spots near parking areas
- Algae in shaded sections
- Dirty storefront glass
- Black streaks on concrete and siding
A lot of these problems start slowly. Then suddenly the whole property looks worn down.
