Property Refresh Launches High-Rise Window Washing Program for Downtown Chicago Properties

Property Refresh, a Chicago-based maintenance firm, has launched a high-rise window washing program for downtown buildings. The initiative expands access to professional window cleaning services, addressing increased demand for safe, compliant, and large-scale commercial window washing across Chicago’s dense urban skyline.

-- Property Refresh, a Chicago-based building maintenance provider, has announced the launch of a dedicated high-rise window washing program designed to serve downtown commercial and residential properties. The new service expansion is aimed at addressing the growing demand for specialized exterior glass maintenance in the city’s dense, vertical real estate market.

The program offers a full suite of professional window cleaning services tailored for high-rise environments, with an emphasis on safety, regulatory compliance, and visual impact. It includes interior and exterior window washing, multi-surface glass treatment, water-spot removal, and recurring service plans for buildings over ten stories.

“With so many of Chicago’s buildings defined by their architecture and skyline visibility, regular, high-quality window maintenance is essential,” said George Dimitrov, owner of Property Refresh. “This program reflects the evolution of our service capabilities and a response to client needs in some of the city’s most complex structures.”

The service is now available to downtown office towers, multi-family buildings, and mixed-use developments. By combining experienced window washers with updated equipment and high-access techniques, the company is positioned to manage both routine maintenance and intensive restoration projects. Suspended scaffolding, rope descent systems (RDS), and boom lift operations are used in compliance with city safety ordinances and OSHA standards.

Property Refresh’s program launch is in direct response to inquiries from property managers and facility directors seeking dependable commercial window washing providers with the capability to manage multi-story façades. While general window cleaning services are common throughout the area, high-rise properties require specialized planning, training, and insurance coverage to meet both regulatory and logistical standards.

“High-rise window washing is a highly technical service that demands precision, preparation, and the right team,” said Dimitrov. “We’ve invested in the right tools, protocols, and staff training to perform this work at scale and at height—safely and efficiently.”

The expansion into high-rise services complements Property Refresh’s existing portfolio of building maintenance solutions, which include pressure washing, façade cleaning, and standard window cleaning services for low- and mid-rise properties. The company’s commercial window washing team has undergone additional safety certifications and high-rise operations training in preparation for the program rollout.

Downtown Chicago’s commercial real estate market includes more than 200 buildings over 20 stories, many of which are clad in glass or mixed exterior materials that require specialized upkeep. These buildings often present logistical challenges including limited access points, crowded public spaces, and minimal service windows due to tenant activity.

In anticipation of these challenges, Property Refresh has developed a planning process that includes site evaluation, permit coordination, equipment logistics, and building-specific access plans. Each project is managed by a dedicated coordinator and reviewed for safety and compliance prior to commencement.

Property Refresh’s decision to formally launch the program follows a year-long trial period in which the company piloted high-rise services on select buildings in the Loop, West Loop, and River North neighborhoods. Feedback from those projects guided the development of service protocols, equipment purchases, and team expansion.

In recent years, downtown building operators have increased their focus on aesthetics, sustainability, and occupant satisfaction, particularly in high-visibility properties with glass-heavy exteriors. Clean windows contribute to improved natural light, curb appeal, and building performance ratings. Regular professional window cleaning services also help extend the life of window materials by removing environmental buildup and airborne pollutants.

“As buildings age and urban density increases, ongoing maintenance becomes a matter of long-term asset protection,” Dimitrov noted. “Window systems are not just aesthetic—they’re part of energy performance, occupant well-being, and property value. Our role is to maintain those systems in a way that’s reliable, safe, and minimally disruptive.”

The high-rise window washing program is supported by Property Refresh’s centralized dispatch and scheduling platform, which helps manage recurring service routes and seasonal demand. The company also provides post-service reporting, photographic documentation, and maintenance recommendations when necessary.

The expansion comes at a time of continued investment in Chicago’s downtown corridor. Several new high-rise developments are scheduled to complete in 2025 and 2026, and ongoing tenant improvements in legacy buildings are creating new expectations for cleanliness and appearance.

Property Refresh expects to scale the program further by the end of the year, with plans to add additional certified rope access technicians and expand service hours during peak spring and fall maintenance cycles.

The company’s broader goal is to be positioned as a long-term maintenance partner for property managers seeking professional window cleaning services near me that meet high-rise safety standards and urban operational constraints.
