Residential Window Cleaning in Greater Montréal
Residential window cleaning here starts with the outside of your home. A crew washes exterior glass, frames and sills with pure deionized water on a water-fed pole and rinses the screens in place, all for a flat rate set by your window count.
Describe the job and add your city. Free to request, no obligation.
Deionized water carries no dissolved minerals, and minerals are what leave spots and streaks behind as water dries on glass. That is why pure water on a pole is used for the exterior. Interior glass, screen removal and washing, and track cleaning are optional paid add-ons you can book with the same visit, so the flat rate stays an exterior price.
Exterior work is seasonal in Greater Montréal, about March to November, while interior cleaning can be done year-round. Skylights, solariums, heavy mineral stains and post-construction cleanup sit outside the flat rate and are quoted separately. You choose your window-count tier on the pricing page and book through the site.

What changes the price
- Number of windows
- The flat rate follows the window-count tier you pick online, so a bigger home moves up a tier. A home beyond the largest listed tier gets a custom quote.
- Exterior only or with add-ons
- Interior glass, screen removal and washing, and track cleaning are priced on top of the exterior rate. Decide which of them you want before you book.
- Height and access
- The pole reaches up to three storeys from the ground. A taller home or hard-to-reach windows can need a site visit before a price is set.
- Items quoted separately
- Skylights, solariums, heavy mineral stains and post-construction cleanup are outside the flat rate, and each is quoted on its own.
- How often you book
- Quarterly service is 10% off, bi-monthly 15% and monthly 20%. Annual and bi-annual programs come with reminders but no discount.
What a good quote spells out
