Window Cleaning in Dubai Silicon Oasis

A regular exterior round on an average house: 20-40 minutes. A first clean or full inside-and-out with frames, sills and tracks: 2-4 hours depending on window count. Window count drives everything — count your panes before calling and quotes get much more accurate.

Ground-floor glass, absolutely DIY-able with a squeegee and practice. The calculus changes with height: ladder falls are one of the most common serious home-DIY accidents, and upper-floor windows take a pro with a water-fed pole minutes from the ground. Most households that hire do it for the upper floors and the consistency of a schedule, not because the skill is exotic.

Exteriors: every 4-8 weeks on a regular round keeps glass consistently clear; quarterly is the practical minimum in cities or near trees and coasts. Interiors need cleaning 2-4 times a year in most homes. Homes near the sea (salt), busy roads (film) or construction (dust) need shorter cycles.

For exterior-only cleans, no — most regular rounds run with the customer out, with payment by app or transfer. Unlock side gates and confine pets before the visit. Interior cleans obviously need access; many customers book inside-and-out once or twice a year and exterior-only in between.

Apartment interior-and-balcony glass runs about AED 100-300 per session; villa packages including exterior glass run AED 200-600 depending on size. Hourly-based bookings work out around AED 30-80/hour. After major sandstorms expect surge demand and book a few days ahead.

Dust film rebuilds within weeks, so villas typically clean glass monthly or bi-monthly rather than quarterly. The other local issue is mineral spotting from irrigation overspray and hard water — ask for spot treatment before it etches. Post-sandstorm cleans are about protecting glass, not just looks: grit scratches when wiped dry.
