Ask an AI about window cleaning costs
Most Orlando homeowners pay between $195 and $400 for professional window cleaning, with the average job landing around $200 to $260 for interior and exterior glass. Your final price comes down to how many windows you have, their size and type, and how easy they are to reach. Cleaning both sides in one visit costs close to twice an exterior-only clean, because it is nearly double the work.
We have cleaned windows for some of Central Florida’s most particular homeowners since 1991, and the pricing question comes up on almost every estimate. Between afternoon storms, oak and pine pollen, hard water from sprinkler overspray, and lakefront humidity, glass here gets dirty faster than in most parts of the country. That is why so many Orlando homeowners are trying to figure out what a fair number actually looks like before they book.
We would rather give you real ranges than make you fill out a form to find out. Below is what window cleaning actually costs in the Orlando area, and exactly what moves the number up or down.
What Orlando Homeowners Actually Pay for Window Cleaning
For most Orlando homes, professional window cleaning runs from about $195 for a small single-story home up to $650 or more for a large two-story property with lots of glass. Aggregated pricing data from hundreds of completed Orlando projects puts the typical job in the $194 to $258 range, with smaller and larger jobs falling on either side of that.
Companies usually price one of two ways. Some quote per window, which in Orlando tends to run around $8 to $10 for a standard window cleaned inside and out. Others quote per pane, which lands closer to $6 to $8 per pane for residential work. Either way, the total depends far more on your specific home than on any flat rate.
Our minimum for a window cleaning visit is about $225. That covers the labor, equipment, and travel it takes to send a crew out, so very small jobs still make sense to schedule. Here is how pricing generally shakes out by home size.
These are planning ranges for the Orlando area, not fixed rates. Every home is quoted individually, which is why we come out and look before committing to a number. If you want a sense of what a complete job includes, our residential window cleaning in Orlando page walks through it.
What Affects the Price of Window Cleaning in Orlando?
Four things drive almost every window cleaning quote we write. When your neighbor pays less than you for what looks like the same house, it usually comes down to one of these.
Number of windows
More windows mean more time on site, so the count is the biggest single factor. Most companies, including us, price per window and scale from there, which is why a 10-window bungalow and a 28-window two-story are in completely different tiers.
Size of the windows
A large picture window or a bay window takes more solution, more time, and more care than a standard double-hung. Two homes with the same window count can price differently if one is full of oversized glass and the other is not.
Type of window
French-pane and divided-light windows cost more because grime hides in the mullions and the little sections of glass, not just the open pane. These are common in Winter Park and the upper-market Orlando homes we work in, and each small section needs individual attention. Flat glass is quicker to clean and prices lower.
Reach and accessibility
Ground-floor windows are the cheapest to clean. Second and third-story glass costs more because it means ladders and extra time, and industry pricing typically adds a few dollars per window for each story above the ground. Access matters too. A common Orlando situation is a pool cage that blocks ladder access to second-floor windows, and we will not put an aluminum ladder or a carbon-fiber pole near a power line, so a window like that may change the approach or come off the quote entirely.
Here is a quick way to see where a home lands.
For homes with a lot of framework or for customers on a recurring schedule, we often use a purified water-fed pole. It cleans the frames, sills, and mullions along with the glass, so less residue washes back down onto the window after the next rain and the results last longer.

Interior vs. Exterior, Screens, and Tracks: What’s Included?
The biggest source of quote confusion is what the price actually covers. Cleaning the inside and the outside runs close to twice an exterior-only visit, simply because doing both sides is nearly double the work. Booking them together in one appointment is still more cost-effective than paying for two separate trips.
We keep the rest transparent with honest line items. Every job includes a complimentary screen knock-off to clear loose debris. A full screen cleaning is a separate add-on, and as a rough example, if windows are priced around $10 each, a full screen clean might run about $4 per window. Track cleaning is also an add-on, quoted on site. You see exactly what you are paying for instead of a mystery lump sum.
On the inside, a proper clean is more than a wipe with glass spray. We use a soapy-water solution applied with a T-bar mop, squeegee it off, then detail the frame and the sill. Technicians wear shoe booties indoors and ask where you would like them to start.
How Often Should You Clean Windows in Orlando (and When It Costs Less)
Twice a year is the practical minimum for most Orlando homes, and quarterly makes sense for properties surrounded by trees or hit by sprinkler overspray. Our climate is hard on glass. Orlando averages close to 50 inches of rain a year, pollen season stretches across much of the calendar, and the humidity feeds mildew on frames and sills before it creeps onto the glass.
The afternoon storms from June through September are sneaky. The rain itself is not the problem. It is the pollen, dust, and organic film the rain picks up and dries into streaks as the storm passes, leaving a layered residue that a quick wipe will not remove. Most homeowners we serve land on two visits: one in spring after pollen season winds down, and one in fall after the worst of the storms.
Timing also affects what you spend over a year. We offer discounts on quarterly and biannual recurring service, and new customers get a 15% discount on their first service. Staying on a schedule keeps buildup from ever getting bad enough to need heavier work, which is the cheapest way to keep glass looking right. Fall is our busiest stretch, roughly September through December, so booking early for the holidays helps.
Why a Window Cleaning Quote in Orlando Requires a Quick Look
An accurate number comes from a short in-person visit, not a random figure typed into a website. When we come out, we can see the window types, check the reach, spot delicate or antique glass, and understand what actually matters to you before we quote. Meeting at the home is also how we protect the property, from stained front doors to pool-cage reaches, rather than guessing on the phone.
There is a reason homeowners have stayed with us for decades. We have been at this since 1991; we are Better Business Bureau accredited, and our Google rating sits at 4.9 stars across nearly 200 reviews. The company is veteran-owned, and we back our work with a satisfaction guarantee.
One thing worth asking any company you compare us to is how their insurance works. Most carry liability that covers the property around your windows, but their coverage stops there. We also carry custody and care insurance, which covers the item we are actually cleaning. If something happens to the glass itself during service, our policy responds. That is a level of protection worth confirming before you hand anyone a ladder and a squeegee.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do window cleaners charge per window or per pane?
In Orlando, expect roughly $8 to $10 per standard window, or about $6 to $8 per pane for inside-and-out cleaning. French-pane and oversized windows sit at the higher end of those ranges.
Is it cheaper to clean windows inside and out at the same time?
Booking both sides in one visit costs less than two separate trips, though it still runs close to twice an exterior-only clean because it is nearly double the work. You also get it all done in a single appointment.
How much extra do second- and third-story windows cost?
Upper-story windows typically add a few dollars per window because they require ladders and more time. Obstacles like pool cages or nearby power lines can change the approach or make a window unsafe to reach.
How often should I have my windows cleaned in Central Florida?
Twice a year is the practical minimum for most Orlando homes, and quarterly suits tree-heavy or sprinkler-exposed properties. Spring after pollen season and fall after storm season are the natural times to schedule.
Do you offer discounts for recurring window cleaning?
Yes. We offer reduced pricing on quarterly and biannual plans, plus a 15% discount for new customers on their first service. Staying on a schedule also keeps buildup from reaching the point where it needs heavier cleaning.
