Window Cleaning

Window Cleaning in Zurich — Streak-Free & Professional

Dirty windows affect how your home looks and how it feels to live in. They block natural light, make rooms appear smaller, and leave a general sense of neglect — even when everything else is clean.

Professional window cleaning in Zurich is Offered by Apartment Cleaning Zurich for residential apartments. We clean inside and outside, using proper tools and techniques that remove limescale, grime, and smear marks completely. No streaks. No residue. No need to be home.

We cover all Zurich districts. Bookings are straightforward, and we confirm the appointment details before arrival.

What We Clean

What We Clean

Most apartment windows in Zurich have multiple surfaces that need attention. A cloth and a spray bottle do not reach all of them properly. We clean each surface with the right tool for the job.

Surfaces we cover:

•       Window glass — interior surfaces, all rooms

•       Window glass — exterior surfaces, all accessible façade positions

•       Window frames — uPVC, aluminium, and painted wood

•       Window handles and locking mechanisms

•       Interior and exterior window sills

•       Balcony sliding glass doors and fixed glass panels

•       Skylights and roof windows at ground or low-level access

If any window cannot be safely reached — due to height or restricted access — we tell you before we start. We do not leave the issue undisclosed.

Why Windows Get Dirty Faster in Zurich

Zurich tap water is very hard, with high calcium and magnesium levels. When water dries on glass — from rain, condensation, or cleaning — it leaves a white film. Over time, this mineral buildup makes windows look dull, even with regular cleaning.

Weather adds to the problem. Frequent rain deposits dust, pollen, and particles on exterior glass. Spring brings high pollen; autumn and winter bring wind-driven debris.

Household sprays often fail to remove minerals, sometimes spreading residue instead. Untreated deposits can eventually etch the glass. Professional cleaning removes buildup before it causes lasting damage.

Tools and Methods We Use

We use a purified water system for exterior glass. Purified water has had all minerals removed through a filtration process. When it dries, it leaves no residue. This is how streak-free results are achieved on exterior surfaces without chemical sprays.

For interior glass, we use professional-grade microfibre tools and squeegees designed for window work. These remove grime in a single pass and do not leave lint or smear marks behind.

Window frames are cleaned with pH-neutral solutions appropriate for uPVC, aluminium, and painted wood. We do not use harsh chemicals that strip surface coatings or discolour frames over time.

Every job is finished by checking the glass from multiple angles in natural light. This catches any remaining streaks before we consider the work complete.

How Often Should You Clean Windows in Zurich?

How Often Should You Clean Windows in Zurich?

For most Zurich apartments, twice a year is a practical minimum. Spring and autumn are the most common times. Spring removes pollen and winter residue before the warm months. Autumn clears summer dust and prepares glass for the wet season.

Apartments near main roads or construction sites may benefit from three cleanings per year. Ground-floor and street-facing windows tend to collect more grime than upper floors.

If you have balcony sliding doors or large glass panels, they are worth cleaning more frequently. These surfaces attract dust and water marks quickly, and the size makes streaks more visible.

Many Apartment Cleaning Zurich clients set up a recurring appointment twice a year and do not think about it further. We send a reminder before each scheduled clean.
