Window Cleaning in Fanling

A telescopic pole with a brush head fed by purified water — the cleaner scrubs from the ground and rinses with deionised water that dries without spots, so no detergent and no ladder. It's now the standard for residential exteriors in many countries, reaches 3-4 storeys safely, and cleans frames as part of the process. Traditional squeegee work remains standard for interiors and gives a slightly more polished finish on ground-floor glass.

Three models: per pane/window (most transparent for one-offs), per visit (standard for regular rounds — a fixed price for your whole house), or hourly (rare for homes, common for commercial). Regular-round pricing is far cheaper per clean than one-offs because maintained glass cleans fast. Always confirm whether the price covers exterior only or inside and out — that single detail explains most quote differences.

Unlock side gates, move cars off the driveway if poles or hoses need the space, close windows fully, and confine pets. For interior cleans, clear window sills of plants and ornaments — cleaners charge for time, and moving your things is time. Flag any cracked panes or fragile lead-light windows before work starts to avoid disputes.

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.

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.

As part of an hourly helper session, window cleaning folds into the HK$85-$140/hour rate. Dedicated glass-cleaning sessions for a flat run roughly HK$300-$800 depending on glass area. Exterior tower glass is handled by building management, not individual bookings.

Because exterior facade access (gondolas, rope access) is controlled by the building's management company and its licensed contractors — individual flat owners can't hire it per-unit. What you can book is thorough interior-side cleaning plus any panes that open inward. If exterior glass is filthy, raise it with your incorporated owners or management office.
