Window Cleaning
1 business you can compare and book online.
Window cleaners wash interior and exterior glass, screens, tracks and frames for homes, shopfronts and offices. Most jobs use pure water-fed poles or traditional squeegee work, with rope access or elevated platforms for multi-storey buildings. People typically book them before selling or renting a property, after building work, ahead of events, or on a quarterly schedule to keep coastal salt and city grime off the glass.

How to choose a good Window Cleaner
- No licence is required for window cleaning in Australia, so judge providers on reviews, before-and-after photos and how long they have traded.
- Check they hold public liability insurance, ideally $5 million or more, since ladders and glass near your home carry real risk.
- For anything above two storeys, ask about working-at-heights training and equipment such as EWP tickets or rope access certification.
- Get an itemised quote covering panes, screens, tracks and flyscreens; a cheap headline price often excludes half the job.
- Ask whether they use pure water-fed poles, which leave streak-free glass without chemicals, or traditional squeegee methods for heavy grime.
- Look for a streak-free or rain guarantee, and confirm whether hard water stain removal costs extra before booking.
Questions to ask before you book
Frequently asked questions
Do window cleaners in Australia need a licence?
No. There is no licence for window cleaning itself. For high-rise work, operators need relevant working-at-heights competencies, such as a high-risk work licence for boom lifts over 11 metres or rope access certification. For houses and shopfronts, focus on insurance, reviews and experience rather than paperwork.
How often should windows be cleaned?
Most homes do well with a clean every three to six months. Coastal properties collecting salt spray, homes near main roads and shopfronts often need monthly or bi-monthly visits. Many cleaners offer 10 to 20 per cent off for a recurring schedule, which also stops hard water stains from setting in.
What is pure water or water-fed pole cleaning?
It uses deionised water pumped through a brush on a telescopic pole. Because the water contains no dissolved minerals, it dries without spots, so no detergent or squeegee is needed. It is the standard method for exterior glass up to three or four storeys, and safer because the cleaner stays on the ground.
