Questions
General Window Cleaning
What's included in professional window cleaning?
A standard window cleaning service includes the glass surfaces requested in your estimate. Depending on the package, we can also clean screens, sills, tracks, glass doors, and hard-to-reach windows.
Do you clean both interior and exterior windows?
Yes. We clean inside and outside glass for most residential and commercial jobs. We coordinate with you on timing for interior access.
Do you clean screens, tracks, and sills?
Yes. Screens are removed, cleaned, and reinstalled. Tracks and sills are wiped down where accessible.
How long does a window cleaning appointment usually take?
Most residential jobs take one to three hours depending on the number of windows, height, and access. Commercial jobs vary more based on scope and schedule.
Do I need to be home during the appointment?
Not for exteriors. For interiors we coordinate a time that works for you. We're prompt, professional, and respectful of your space.
How should I prepare for a window cleaning appointment?
We ask that you remove any fragile items from window sills and ensure we have clear access to the exterior. Interior access is coordinated separately. Otherwise, we handle the rest.
Questions
Pricing and Estimates
How much does window cleaning cost?
Window cleaning pricing depends on the number of windows, window height, screen cleaning, access, and whether you need interior, exterior, or both sides cleaned. The fastest way to get an accurate price is to request a quote with your address, window count, or a few photos.
What affects the price of window cleaning?
The main factors are: number of windows, height and access (ladder vs. extension pole), whether screens need cleaning, interior vs. exterior or both, and buildup level. We give you a clear number before any work begins.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We come out, look at the windows, and give you a straightforward number. No pressure, no upsell.
Can I get a quote from photos or my address?
Yes. Send us your address or a few photos and we will give you a realistic estimate. The final price is confirmed when we see the windows in person.
Do you offer recurring service discounts?
We price recurring work based on a consistent schedule. If you are setting up bi-weekly, monthly, or quarterly service, talk to us and we will work something out.
Questions
Residential Window Cleaning
How often should homeowners clean their windows?
Twice a year is the sweet spot for most homes — spring when the tulips come up, fall when the leaves change. Homes near trees, sprinklers, construction, or heavy pollen may need service more often.
Can you clean second-story windows?
Yes. We quote based on height and access, then bring the right setup for exterior and interior glass at height.
Do you clean skylights, French panes, storm windows, or glass doors?
Yes. Let us know what you have and we will include it in the quote. Skylights, French doors, storm windows, and glass panels are all part of what we clean.
Are your products safe for pets, kids, and landscaping?
Yes. We use professional cleaning solutions that are effective without being harsh on plants, pets, or children around the home.
Do I need to be home during the appointment?
Not for exteriors. For interiors we coordinate a time that works for you. We're prompt, professional, and respectful of your space.
Will you take your shoes off?
Yes. Every time. No exceptions.
Questions
Commercial Window Cleaning
What types of businesses do you clean windows for?
Restaurants, retail storefronts, offices, medical buildings, studios, and other commercial spaces across Boulder County. If you have glass customers can see, we clean it.
Do you offer recurring storefront window cleaning?
Yes. We set up practical schedules — bi-weekly, monthly, or quarterly — depending on your traffic and location. Most Pearl Street businesses go bi-weekly.
Can you clean outside of business hours?
Yes. We work early mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. Tell us your schedule and we will work around it.
Do you work with property managers, offices, restaurants, and retail businesses?
Yes. We work directly with business owners, property managers, and commercial cleaning contracts across Boulder County.
Are you insured for commercial window cleaning?
Yes. Thanks to Greg Naber, Patty & Karen at Farmers Insurance.
How often should a business schedule window cleaning?
It depends on traffic and exposure. High-traffic restaurant fronts often need bi-weekly cleaning. Offices and lower-traffic spaces do well with monthly or quarterly service.
Questions
Specialty Cleaning
Do you remove hard water stains?
Yes. We assess the type and severity of buildup first, then use appropriate methods to restore the glass surface. Not all hard water damage is reversible, but we will be straight with you about what to expect.
Can regular cleaning help prevent hard water damage?
Yes. Regular window cleaning removes mineral deposits before they cause lasting etching. The sooner buildup is addressed, the better the long-term outcome for your glass.
Do you offer post-construction window cleaning?
Yes. Construction and remodeling projects leave dust, splatter, and debris on windows. We clean windows after construction so the glass is ready for the final walkthrough.
Do you clean windows after remodeling projects?
Yes. Remodeling creates dust and debris that settles on all glass surfaces — windows, doors, and interior panels. We come back after the work is done and make sure the glass looks finished.
