Window Cleaning in Nicosia

Ordinary cleaning won't remove etched mineral staining from sprinklers, leaking gutters or years of run-off — it needs dedicated hard-water removal products or fine polishing, priced as a restoration add-on per pane. Test one window first: if staining has etched into the glass, no chemical fixes it fully. Fix the water source (gutter, sprinkler aim) or the stains return.

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.

Water-fed poles handle most windows up to 3-4 storeys from the ground. Beyond that, or over conservatories and extensions where ladders can't stand, you're into specialist access — longer poles, ladders with standoffs, or (for tower blocks) rope access, which is commercial-grade work priced accordingly. Point out awkward windows when getting a quote, not when the cleaner arrives.

Many do, as a priced add-on — conservatory or glass-roof cleaning is slower, needs care about walking loads, and often costs as much as the rest of the house combined. Self-cleaning glass coatings still need occasional professional attention. Ask when booking; not every round cleaner carries the right equipment.

Exterior frames and sills — usually yes with water-fed pole cleaning, since the brush does them anyway. Interior tracks, screens and deep frame scrubbing are typically add-ons. Ask specifically: 'glass only' vs 'glass, frames and sills' is the most common source of disappointment. First cleans should always include frames — dirty frames drip onto clean glass with the first rain.

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.

A standard apartment or house visit runs €20-€60; villas with extensive glass and shutters €50-€150. Many households simply add windows to a general cleaning visit at the cleaner's hourly rate (€10-€20/hour). Prices reflect local wages — well below northern-European levels.

Several times a year, dust carried from the Sahara settles over Cyprus, coating glass, sills and shutters in a fine orange film. Wiping it dry scratches glass — it needs a proper wet clean. After major dust events, cleaners book up fast; a regular schedule through spring keeps ahead of it.
