Window Cleaning in West Vancouver

Demand peaks in spring and before year-end holidays, and those slots book out first. The work itself runs year-round in most climates — pure water works in cold weather down to around freezing, and professionals add glycol or adjust hours in frost. If you want a new regular slot, off-peak (mid-winter, mid-summer) is when good rounds have openings.

Ask three things: are you insured, what's included (glass only, or frames and sills), and what's the re-clean policy if results disappoint. For regular rounds, reliability beats price — the cheapest cleaner who skips visits costs more per actual clean. Local social groups are genuinely useful for finding established rounds with track records.

First cleans remove accumulated grime, spider webs, and frame dirt that a maintained round never faces — often double the time of a maintenance visit. Expect a first-clean price of 1.5-2x the recurring rate, then the cheaper round price from visit two. This is standard and honest; a cleaner who quotes one flat price forever is either overcharging your round or under-delivering your first clean.

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.

Roughly $5-$16 per pane, with an average home landing at $180-$400 for inside-and-out service. Screens add $1-$5 each. Prices in Toronto and Vancouver sit at the top of the range; the compressed season means spring demand pricing is real.

Mostly no for residential exteriors — freezing temperatures rule out water methods, so the residential season runs roughly April to October. Interiors can be done year-round. Book a fall clean if you want clear glass through the closed-window months, and expect the first spring slots to go quickly.
