Skylight Cleaning for Homes in Greater Montréal
Skylight cleaning is quoted separately from the flat rate for exterior windows. Interior skylights can be cleaned from inside when you can access them, and whether the outside of a skylight can be reached depends on the roof pitch and on safety.
Describe the job and add your city. Free to request, no obligation.
Skylights collect more grime than wall windows because rain, pollen and debris settle flat on the glass and dry there. The inside gathers dust and the film that rises with household air. Many skylights sit too high or too steep to reach safely from a ladder, which is where a water-fed pole from the ground can help when the reach allows.
If you have skylights, mention them when you book your window cleaning so they can be quoted along with the rest of the visit. Exterior work is seasonal in Greater Montréal, about March to November.

How the work goes, step by step
Tell us about the skylights
Mention how many you have, where they are and whether you can reach them from inside.
Get a separate quote
Skylights sit outside the flat rate, so they are quoted separately from your windows.
Access is judged
Roof pitch and safety decide whether the exterior of each skylight can be cleaned.
Clean
Interior glass is cleaned from inside where accessible, and exterior glass is cleaned with pure water on the pole where it can be reached.
Report any streak
If a streak shows within 24 hours, tell us and the crew returns free.
What changes the price
- Number of skylights
- Each skylight adds to the separate quote, so a home with several is priced on that count.
- Roof pitch and safety
- A steeper roof limits how an exterior skylight can be reached, and that affects how the job is done and quoted.
- Inside access
- Interior skylights are cleaned from inside, so a skylight over a stairwell or an atrium can be harder to reach than one over a bedroom.
- Height of the home
- The pole reaches up to three storeys from the ground. Taller homes or awkward rooflines can need a site visit before pricing.
- Booking with your regular cleaning
- Skylights are quoted on their own, while the rest of your windows follow the flat rate by window count.
What a good quote spells out
- The number of skylights covered by the quote
- Whether the inside, the outside or both are being cleaned for each one
- Any skylight that cannot be reached safely, named in the quote rather than skipped silently
- The skylight price shown separately from the window flat rate
- The streak guarantee terms: report within 24 hours and the crew returns free
Skylight Cleaning: questions people ask
Are skylights included in the window cleaning price?
No. Skylights are quoted separately from the exterior flat rate, which covers glass, frames and sills on your windows.
Can you clean the outside of a skylight?
It depends on the roof pitch and on safety, and each one is assessed case by case. The pole reaches up to three storeys from the ground, which can help with some skylights.
Do you clean skylights from the inside?
Yes, interior skylights can be cleaned from inside when they are accessible.
How is a skylight quote requested?
Mention your skylights when you book or send a message, including how many there are and where they sit.
