  • The cost of window cleaning largely depends on the type of work that needs to be done. Bear in mind that professional window cleaning services fall into two categories:

    ·       Residential window cleaning (also known as home window cleaning)

    ·       Commercial window cleaning

  • You can choose to have your windows cleaned either outside only or both inside and outside.

    Obviously, it takes more time for a window cleaner to wash both interior and exterior, especially if they are cleaning the tracks, the sills and the screens. At Stone Cliff Window Cleaning the tracks, sills and the screens are included when we clean the interior and exterior windows.

    It may sound obvious, but you must be prepared to pay more if you are interested in getting your interior and exterior windows cleaned as opposed to just exterior.

  • The type of windows also matter when it comes to estimating the cost of professional window cleaning. There are different types of windows, the most popular in Ontario, Canada are regular window panes, storm windows and french panes (small cut ups).

  • How often should I clean my windows? The majority of window washing companies in Ontario, Canada recommend their customers to clean their windows at least 2 times a year (once in the spring and once in the fall).

    However, the need for additional window cleanings may arise if your property is located next to a busy street or a body of water. This will increase the chance of dirt, debris, dust, bugs and spiders.

    Most professional window cleaning companies will offer a discount if you get your windows cleaned more frequently, (i.e. twice a year, quarterly, monthly or even weekly).

  • Sometimes, professional window cleaners find it hard to access the windows that need to be cleaned. The use special tools (water fed poles, extension ladders, swing stage, scissor lift, articulating boom lift and telescopic boom lift) can also impact the cost of the job. Any machinery that needs to be used will obviously increase the price.
