Twice a year
Suits most inland homes. Enough to stop anything bonding into the surface before it becomes permanent.
Glass does not just get dirty, it stains. Sprinkler overspray and coastal salt both dry onto the surface and get harder to shift the longer they sit. We clean windows for homes, offices and shopfronts in Darwin, Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Tasmania.
Glass inside and out, with frames and sills wiped. Our cleaners don't leave until you're happy with the work, and the price is fixed before we start.
Glass inside and out, plus the frames and sills. Track detail and flyscreens can be added to the same visit.
Tracks matter more than people expect. Grit in a track scratches the glass every time the window slides, and blocked weep holes let water sit against the frame.
Two things sit outside a standard clean. Mineral etching that has already set into the glass needs a restoration pass, quoted separately. Anything requiring rope access on a tower is a trade of its own.
For shopfronts and offices this is the same service on a schedule. For glass after a build, see construction and builder final cleaning.
Set by what is landing on the glass, not by the calendar.
Suits most inland homes. Enough to stop anything bonding into the surface before it becomes permanent.
Coastal properties and homes with sprinklers hitting the glass. Both leave deposits that build faster than people realise.
Shopfronts, offices and anywhere the glass is part of how the business looks to people walking past.
Set at quoting so nothing turns up as an extra afterwards.
Blades are never used on glass. One pass with a scraper on toughened or coated glass leaves a scratch that cannot be polished out.
A ladder against your gutter is how both windows and people get broken.

We look at what sits under each window and where a pole can stand.
Step 02
A water-fed pole reaches upper storey glass with both feet on the ground.
Step 03
A clean rinse leaves nothing on the glass to dry into a spot.
Step 04
Squeegee and cloth inside, with floors and sills protected while we work.
Dirt washes off. Minerals do not. What lands on your windows decides how long a clean lasts.
Left long enough, minerals bond into the surface and become etching. At that point washing achieves nothing and the glass needs restoration or replacement.
Four things that decide whether a clean holds.
Water with minerals in it leaves a spot wherever a drop dries. That is what streaking usually is.
We finish with a clean rinse and a squeegee, so there is nothing left on the pane to dry into a mark.
Clean glass in a dirty frame gets marked again by the first rain, as grime runs down the pane.
Frames and sills are in every clean, and track detail can go in the same visit. Grit in a track scratches the pane a little more every time the window slides.
Upper storey glass is where ladders come out, gutters get bent and people fall.
A water-fed pole reaches it with the cleaner standing on the ground. Nothing rests against your wall or balances above your garden beds.
Sprinkler overspray, bore water and coastal salt all bond into glass over time. Past a certain point it is etching, and etching cannot be washed off.
We tell you which panes are still recoverable and which are past it, rather than quoting a restoration that was never going to work.
Here is what sits behind the work.
By window count and access, in three bands.
A small home or unit, glass inside and out with frames and sills.
A medium home, the same scope.
A large home, the same scope.
Access moves the price too. Double storey glass and windows you cannot stand in front of are quoted on top of the band. Track detail and flyscreens are added per job when you want them.
Rates differ by state, so your city page has the band prices. Mineral restoration is quoted separately after we have seen the glass, because not every stained pane can be saved.
Easier booked together than as separate visits.
Walls, eaves and paths. Pressure washing →
Cleaned on the rail while the glass is done. Curtain cleaning →
Cleaned off rather than wiped over. Mould cleaning →
The same pole work reaches them. Quoted with the windows, and worth doing before storm season.
Dust, salt and droppings washed off gently, quoted with the windows.

It is priced in three bands: up to 10 windows, 11 to 20 windows and 21+ windows. Double storey and difficult access are quoted on top, and rates differ by state. You get a fixed written quote before we start.
Both, and they are done differently. Outside glass is reached with a water-fed pole where it helps, while interiors are hand finished with a squeegee and cloth. Floors and sills get protected while we work inside.
Yes, as additions to the same visit. Flyscreens come out and get washed, and tracks are vacuumed before they are wiped. Grit left in a track scratches the pane a little more every time the window slides.
A water-fed pole reaches upper storey glass on most houses and low-rise commercial buildings from the ground. Anything needing rope access is a separate trade. We will tell you which category your building falls into when we quote.
Sometimes, and it depends how long they have been there. Sprinkler and bore water deposits sit on the surface at first and can lift with a restoration pass, but over time they bond into the glass and become etching. Once that happens no cleaning brings it back, and we will say so rather than charge you for the attempt.
Twice a year suits most inland homes, quarterly suits coastal properties and anywhere sprinklers hit the glass, and shopfronts usually run monthly or fortnightly. Leaving it too long is what turns a cleaning job into a restoration job.
Yes. Gutter cleaning, solar panel cleaning and roof soft washing can be added to a window clean, and each is quoted once we know the roof height, the access and how much there is. Booking them in the same visit saves a second call-out.
Rain itself rarely marks clean glass. What marks it is the dirt rain washes down off a dirty frame or roof, which is why we wipe the frames as well.
Most customers book more than one. Same crews, same standards, one invoice.
We stay until it's right
Our cleaners don't leave until you're happy with the work. For end of lease cleans, if you're not satisfied and tell us within 72 hours, we come back and re-clean.
Tell us the property and roughly how many windows, and we will send a fixed price.
