Window Cleaning in Sengkang New Town

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.

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.

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.

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.
