He cleaned our windows before we moved in.  I didn't ask him to clean the windows in the garage doors; they were a mess, and had been splattered with polyurethane from the painters.  He cleaned them -- scraped off the PU and made them shine, no extra charge!  He just couldn't stand walking past such dirty windows :)
