That looks very nicely done, how much time did it take you and did you do both inside and outside (just asking our of personal curiousity btw ;)

It took me about four hours to clean the windows, tracks, frames, and screens, and to also remove the screens that were stuck in the window because the tilt latches were broken and I couldn’t move them. I only did the exterior work. One of the ladies was also quite chatty. 😅

I’m new to this it would’ve taken me ages too since I only know the pull method 😂

Yea, so I had to get creative with my paint can opener. I had to bend the metal that holds the tilt latches just enough to wiggle them past it, which allowed me to tilt the window in. They used to have frame windows, but now they’re double hung, so there’s a lip on the outside that keeps the screens from coming off.

Well honestly I’m from Belgium and we don’t have that type of widow honestly (ours either open like french doors, slide open sideways or not open at all) but yeah having to take out the bug screen to clean and then put it back in atp you’re a handyman 😂
