How to hire a window cleaning pro in United Kingdom
- Decide regular round vs one-off — a 4-8 weekly round costs a fraction per visit of one-off cleans
- Expect water-fed pole (pure water) cleaning from the ground — the modern UK standard, in line with Work at Height guidance
- Confirm what's included: exterior glass, frames and sills is the normal round scope; interiors cost extra
- Ask for public liability insurance
- Check the payment setup — established rounds use GoCardless or bank transfer with message-before-visit service
- In Scotland, window cleaners must hold a local-authority licence — ask to see it; in England and Wales no licence exists
- Agree gate access and a rainy-day policy (most rounds clean in light rain and re-clean if spotting occurs)
Window cleaning is unregulated in England and Wales, but in Scotland window cleaners must be licensed by the local authority under the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 — a genuine check you can make. Most UK rounds now use water-fed poles from the ground, consistent with Work at Height Regulations guidance to avoid ladder work where practical.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a full house take?
A regular exterior round on an average house: 20-40 minutes. A first clean or full inside-and-out with frames, sills and tracks: 2-4 hours depending on window count. Window count drives everything — count your panes before calling and quotes get much more accurate.
Do window cleaners do skylights and conservatory roofs?
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.
Should I DIY or hire a professional?
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.
How is window cleaning priced?
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.
What does a window cleaner cost in the UK?
A regular 4-8 weekly round for a typical semi runs £15-£40 per visit (exterior, including frames and sills). One-off exterior cleans cost £40-£90, and full inside-and-out jobs £60-£150. Conservatory roofs are quoted separately and can match the cost of the whole house.
Is my window cleaner supposed to be licensed?
In England and Wales, no — the trade is unregulated, so insurance and reputation are your checks. In Scotland, yes: operating without a local-authority window cleaner's licence is an offence, and you can ask to see the licence card. This is one of the few genuine paperwork checks in UK domestic cleaning.
