Window Cleaning in Warsaw: Standard and Roof Windows, Streak-Free

How much does window cleaning cost

The cost is based on how many windows there are, what kind they are, which floor they’re on, and how dirty they’ve become. A standard double-leaf window is faster and easier. A roof window takes more work: sloped glass, often plus blinds and a mosquito net. Panoramic glazing on an upper floor needs an individual quote. Cleaning products are included. You’ll find current prices in the table below.

How the window cleaning process works

1. You say so in the order how many windows you have, what type they are, and send photos.
2. The technician estimates the time and price.
3. You agree the visit time with the tradesperson you choose; it depends on their schedule.
4. At the property, they take off mosquito nets and blinds (if there are any).
5. Tradespeople clean the glass with a professional squeegee: outside first, then inside.
6. Tradespeople wipe the frames, seals, and sills.
7. The nets and blinds go back in place. Then they do a final streak check.

Common mistakes when cleaning windows yourself

• Cleaning in full sun — the solution dries before you wipe it off, so streaks stay behind.
• Using paper towels: they leave fluff on the glass.
• Skipping frames and seals: dirt from the frame ends up back on the glass.
• Leaving mosquito nets in place — washing through the mesh means half the dirt stays there.
• Using harsh chemicals on laminated frames: the finish goes dull.
• Opening roof window sashes all the way without locking them, a gust of wind can slam them shut.

What to prepare before the technician arrives

• Take plants, vases, and decorations off the windowsills.
• Make sure the windows are easy to reach: move furniture if needed.
• If you have roof windows — say so in the order the model (Velux, Fakro) and how they open.
• Mention in the request whether you want only the glass cleaned or the frames and sills as well.
• If high-floor windows open only inward, mention that in advance.
• Confirm whether there are mosquito nets and blinds.
• Make sure there is access to water.
• Send the intercom code and parking details.

Case study: roof window cleaning in Kabaty

A top-floor flat with four Velux GGU roof windows: not washed for two years. The glass had a layer of city dust and dried rain stains. The mosquito nets were packed with insects. Tradespeople began by taking down the nets and cleaning them separately in the bathtub. Tradespeople turned the sashes into cleaning mode (180-degree rotation) and locked them. The outside was washed with an Unger squeegee on a telescopic pole. The inside — with a squeegee and microfibre cloth. The frames were wiped with a specialist PVC cleaner. The seals were treated with silicone lubricant to help them last longer. All four windows took an hour and a half. The client said the room looked clearly brighter afterward. Conclusion: roof windows need regular cleaning, dust and rain build up on angled glass much faster than on vertical panes.

Frequently asked questions

Do tradespeople clean just the glass or frames too?

Tradespeople clean the glass, frames, sills, and seals. It’s the full service.

What types of windows do tradespeople clean?

Every kind: standard, balcony, roof (Velux, Fakro), panoramic, and shopfront.

Do tradespeople clean the outside on high floors?

Yes, if the windows open inward or have a pivot mechanism. Fixed windows above the 3rd floor require industrial rope access.

How long does window cleaning take?

One standard window: 15-20 minutes. A roof window — 20-30 minutes. A flat with 5-6 windows: around 2 hours.

What cleaning products do tradespeople use?

Professional ammonia-free glass cleaners. Safe for PVC frames, lamination, and seals.

Should I remove plants from the sills?

Yes, removing them in advance saves the technician’s time and saves you money.

Do tradespeople remove and wash mosquito nets?

Yes, they take them off, wash them, and reinstall them. Included in the price.

How often should windows be cleaned?

Tradespeople suggest twice a year: spring and autumn. Roof windows may need cleaning more often.

Do tradespeople work in rainy weather?

Tradespeople try not to: rain ruins the result. Tradespeople move the visit to the nearest dry day.
