Window Cleaning in Marine Parade

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.

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.

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.

HDB interior window cleaning starts around S$80-$180 depending on flat size; full reachable inside-and-out service runs S$180-$290; condos and landed homes with more glass run S$280-$480. Many households get windows done as part of a deep-cleaning package instead of standalone.

Only the faces reachable safely from inside (by opening panes) or from common corridors. No legitimate cleaner will climb or lean out — it's dangerous and treated seriously by authorities. For full exterior glass on high floors, the only route is building-managed facade cleaning via rope-access contractors.
