Clearwater window cleaner drawing a squeegee across a bay window from inside, water sheeting away to leave clear glass

Interior window cleaning is the inside of every window in your home, done by hand with a squeegee: the glass, plus a wipe of the frames and sills. It is added to an exterior clean, so both sides of the glass are done in one visit.

Done by hand with a squeegee

Outside, the water-fed pole does most of the work. Inside there is nowhere for water to go, so each window is done by hand.

The frame and sill are wiped with a wet cloth first. Then the glass is wet with a mop, scrubbed all over and squeegeed, with a cloth held at the end of the blade to catch the drips. Every edge gets a dry detailing cloth. Last, we check the glass from low down, moving side to side, because that is the angle where missed spots show up.

Small panes the squeegee will not fit, like French windows, are sprayed and wiped by hand with a microfibre cloth.

The edges matter most inside. You stand close to an inside window and look straight at it, so a line left along the frame is the first thing you see.

Working in your house

Shoes come off at the door, every time, even if you tell us not to worry.

The mop is wet from a squirt bottle instead of a bucket of water, so there is very little to spill. If anything does land on a floor, sill or chair, we stop and clean it up before carrying on.

We move what has to move to reach the glass and put it back where it was. Anything heavy or fragile, we would rather you moved yourself, or we work around it.

Before we start, we ask which door to use and whether any rooms should be left alone. Then you can get on with your day.

High panes inside

Glass over a stairwell, a void or a raked ceiling is harder to reach from inside. We count those panes separately when we quote, so tell us about them when you call.

Sills and tracks

Inside sills and frames are wiped as part of the job. They collect dust and dead insects, and clean glass above a grey sill does not look finished.

If the tracks need proper work, that is the deep track detail and we quote it separately.

Inside and out together

Clean glass on one side shows up every mark on the other. Cleaning only the outside can make the inside look worse than it did before, so most people have both done on the same visit.

Call 0450 246 246, or request a callback and we will ring you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be home?

Someone needs to let us in, but you do not need to follow us around. Before we start, we ask which door to use and whether any rooms should be left alone, like a sleeping baby or a home office. Then most people get on with their day.

Will you move my furniture?

We move what needs moving to reach the glass, and we put it back where it was. Anything heavy, fragile or valuable we would rather you moved yourself, or we work around it.

How do you avoid making a mess inside?

Shoes off at the door, every time, and very little water. The mop is wet from a squirt bottle, and a cloth catches the drips as the squeegee comes off the glass. If anything does spill, we stop and clean it up straight away. Inside, there is no drainage, so the pole and hose stay outside.

Do you do the sills and the tracks inside as well?

Sills and frames, yes, as part of the inside clean. The deep track detail is a separate job we can quote alongside it if the channels need it.

Is the inside clean part of the exterior clean?

No, it is an add-on to an exterior clean, so both sides of the glass are done on the same visit. It covers the inside of every window in the home. Clean glass on one side shows up every mark on the other, which is why most people want both.

James and team did a great job cleaning our external windows recently, including windows up high. James was very pleasant to deal with and was happy to touch up a few more spots after I mentioned. Thanks James.

James, Isaac and Zac just completed cleaning the exterior of all our windows to a very high standard. Our Edwardian home presented a range of height and access challenges which they tackled efficiently and professionally. They were punctual and very respectful as they worked diligently attending to every detail of the windows’ exterior. We would not hesitate to highly recommend them for your professional cleaning requirements. Thanks again James, Zac and Isaac.

You don’t realise how dirty your windows are until someone as skilled as James and his team comes and cleans them! Always very impressed with his work, would really recommend! even if you are someone who has never paid attention to getting your windows cleaned, I promise you will see the value in it after James comes and works his magic!

James did a wonderful job with our end-of-lease window cleaning. His communication was prompt, his pricing clear and reasonable and he worked with great attention to detail. The windows look amazing, way better than they’ve ever done! Besides, James is a very friendly guy, it was a pleasure to meet him. Thanks for an all round great job!

James and Kyle really did a great job. They were both so handsome, tall and professional and cleaned all our windows so well! Never hired a window cleaner before, but when they came they eased all my doubts Good to support a great local business and really affordable.
