Window Cleaning Kit: The Best Tools for a Streak-Free Finish

We’ve all heard of the old-school mix of water and white vinegar, wiped on with newspaper to clean windows. It’s a classic grandma-approved trick… but it has its limits. These days, if you want spotless, streak-free windows that stay clean longer, you need the right tools and a bit of technique. The pros don’t leave anything to chance.

At BL Vitres, we know a great window cleaning kit isn’t just about gear; it’s about method, specialized equipment, and experience. Whether it’s a house in Laval, a downtown Montreal condo, or a business on the South Shore, we always tailor our approach.

What’s in a Pro Window Cleaning Kit?

A solid clean starts with the right tools. But, it’s not just about the tools; it’s how you use them that makes the difference. Here’s how the pros do it:

The Squeegee

A must-have for wiping away water and grime in one smooth pass with no streaks left behind. Used correctly, it gives you a clean, even finish. But if your technique is off or the blade is worn, you’ll be chasing streaks all day.

Microfibre Cloth

Perfect for drying edges and catching any missed spots. Unlike old rags or paper towels, microfibre doesn’t leave lint behind and soaks up moisture like a pro.

Telescopic Pole

For high windows, you’ll need more than outstretched arms. A good pole lets you clean safely—no ladders needed. Pair it with a soft brush and filtered water, and you’re good to go.

Pure Water

This is our go-to for most jobs. We filter the water to remove minerals (like calcium), so it evaporates without leaving spots, even in direct sunlight. It’s also eco-friendly: zero chemicals involved.

Should You DIY or Call the Pros?

People often ask: how do I clean my windows without leaving streaks? The short answer? Patience, technique, and the right gear. But honestly, unless scrubbing windows is your idea of a fun Saturday, it’s worth calling in the pros. Especially when the windows are hard to reach, super dirty, or just… a lot. At BL Vitres, we know exactly what it takes to get them sparkling—and keep them that way.

High Windows Are a Whole Other Game

Cleaning third-floor windows isn’t like wiping down a patio door. There’s risk, access issues, weather… everything changes. We use pole systems, safety gear, and approved techniques for every situation. Whether it’s a multi-level home, a condo building, or a post-construction cleanup, we’re ready.

Why Choose BL Vitres?

Sure, you can clean your own windows. There are tons of online tips, DIY recipes, and even step-by-step guides for building your own kit. But the real question is: is the result worth it? Will the finish be as flawless as a pro job? Will it be fast, safe, and long-lasting? In many cases, the answer’s no. A deep, streak-free clean on all types of glass—angled windows, high-up panes, oversized sliding doors—takes more than just effort. At BL Vitres, we know every client has unique needs. That’s why we adapt our professional window cleaning service to each situation, using a complete kit of pro tools and proven methods.
