I love that my windows tip in for cleaning the outside, but they only tip in on the bottom half making the top outside window ummmmmm….hard to clean!
Last week I couldn’t stand my dirty windows any more, we had a dry beautiful day….perfect for window cleaning!
Want to know my secret for cleaning the outside of my windows that don’t tip in?
I use my Swiffer floor tool – wrap a few paper towels around it
spray the window with my cleaner – the use the Swiffer to reach outside and clean the upper half of my windows!
Works for ME!!
Now I have beautiful CLEAN windows!!

What a great tip!! And it's coming at just the right time too – I told my husband this morning I wanted to clean the windows, but never figured out how to clean the top ones on the outside. Thanks for sharing!!

That is such a great idea! So simple that I feel like an idiot for not thinking of it myself. Thanks for sharing!

I was so glad to find a pin on Pinterest on Easy Window Cleaning! I have the same type windows and since they are too high off the ground and porch, I have been thinking about hiring someone to clean them. Now that I have discovered your solution, no way! I will do it myself!
Thank you so much. Your blog is now listed on my Bookmarks.

That’s a genius idea! I have windows that are difficult to clean like the ones you have. I’ll have to try it 🙂 my windows are so nasty, it’s just splotched from all the rain we’ve been getting the past few months. It’s high time we get them sparkly again.
It is possible your windows can do this: flip in your lower window (find something to rest it on so you do not have to hold it), then slide the upper window down, and see if it has the sliding tabs on the top that will allow it to flip in just like the bottom one does. Ours do this. It is kind of awkward, but makes both outside panes accessible.
Love your solution for those with non-flipper windows!
Dangerous if there’s a fire.
? what is dangerous?
My problem is how do i clean a window box. You know those widows that stick out and you can crank the window open at the top. it has a screen that s not removable. These are the windows that were so popular back in the 60 s 70’s. And its way above ground level. Any ideas would be lovely
