Most Bonita Springs homeowners pay between $150 and $400 or more for professional window cleaning, depending on how many windows they have, the height, and whether they want the inside done too.
Our window cleaning starts at $150 for up to 10 windows on the exterior, then runs $8 per window after that, or $12 per window for inside and out. Estimates are free, and you get a real number the same day.
We’re Clean Streaks, and we clean windows for homeowners all over Bonita Springs and the surrounding area. This guide walks you through what window cleaning actually costs here, what moves the price up or down, and why glass in Southwest Florida gets dirty faster than almost anywhere else in the country.
How Much Does Window Cleaning Cost in Bonita Springs?
There’s no single flat price for window cleaning, but there is a real starting point. Around Bonita Springs, most homeowners land somewhere between $160 and $312 for a standard job, and the national average sits around $221 per visit. Our pricing is simple and we tell you upfront.
We price per window, meaning the whole window unit, not per individual pane. A lot of companies quote per pane, which makes it hard to compare one estimate to the next. We keep it straightforward.
| Service | What It Covers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Window cleaning minimum | Up to 10 windows, exterior | Starts at $150 |
| Additional windows (exterior) | Each window past the first 10 | $8 per window |
| Inside and outside | Each window, both sides | $12 per window |
| Average residential job | Typical Bonita Springs home | $400–$500 |
| National average (for context) | Per visit, US | ~$221 |
That $150 minimum covers screen cleaning and the exposed tracks, not just the glass. Some companies tack those on as extras. We don’t.

What Affects the Price of Window Cleaning?
A few things decide where your quote lands. Understanding them helps you know whether an estimate is fair before you ever pick up the phone.
Number of windows. This is the biggest driver. More windows means more time on site, so a small ranch costs far less than a large two-story home with 30-plus windows.
Inside versus outside. Cleaning both sides costs more than exterior-only, because it’s twice the glass plus interior detailing. We break down exactly how that works in its own section below.
Height and access. Second-story and hard-to-reach windows take more setup with ladders and standoffs, so they cost a bit more. We take on any window we can reach safely by ladder, which covers the vast majority of homes in the area.
Glass condition. Hard-water spots, mineral buildup, and windows that haven’t been cleaned in years all add time. The first professional clean on a neglected home usually costs more than the maintenance visits that follow.
Screens, tracks, and sills. These are part of our standard pricing, not line-item extras. Plenty of companies charge separately for them, so it’s worth asking whoever you call.
How Different Window Types Affect Your Cost
Not every window takes the same amount of work. A big single-pane slider wipes down fast. A French window with a dozen small panes and grid bars takes longer, because every section and every edge gets detailed by hand.
Here’s the part that keeps your quote simple: we count each window as one unit, whatever style it is. A multi-pane French window costs the same as a single-pane slider. The style mainly affects how long a job takes, not a separate line item on your estimate.
| Window Type | What Makes It Different | How We Price It |
|---|---|---|
| Single and double-hung | Standard two-panel windows, most common here | One unit each |
| Sliders and glass doors | Large panels, quick to clean | One unit each |
| French and grid windows | Multiple small panes, more edge detailing | Still one unit, just more time |
| Bay and picture windows | Large glass area, sometimes higher reach | One unit each |
| Skylights | Overhead, need ladder or pole access | One unit, access dependent |
| Storm windows | Extra exterior layer over the main window | Priced with the window unit |
| Antique, stained, or leaded glass | Fragile, cleaned by hand with care | Handled with extra care |
Specialty glass gets a gentler approach, and it’s the kind of detail that’s easy to get wrong. If you’ve got antique, stained, or leaded windows, tell us up front so we plan the job around them and use the right hand-cleaning method from the start.
Interior vs. Exterior: What’s the Difference in Price?
Exterior-only is the routine choice for most homeowners, and it’s the more economical option because it’s one side of the glass and no setup inside your home. Inside-and-out costs more because it’s twice the surface, plus we’re detailing interior edges, wiping frames, and protecting whatever’s around the window.
| Option | What It Includes | Our Price |
|---|---|---|
| Exterior only | Outside glass, frames, exposed tracks, screens | $8 per window (after the $150 minimum) |
| Inside and outside | Both sides of the glass, interior edges and sills | $12 per window |
A practical rhythm a lot of our homeowners use: exterior cleaning on the regular schedule to keep the outside looking sharp, then add the interior once or twice a year, usually before the season or before guests come down. You get clean glass year-round without paying the inside rate every visit. Run a business instead of a household? Our commercial window cleaning is quoted separately and scheduled before you open or after you close.
What’s Included in a Standard Window Cleaning
A window cleaning should be more than a quick pass over the glass. Our standard service covers:
- The glass, cleaned on the exterior with a system that dries spot-free (more on how that works below)
- Screen cleaning, so you’re not looking at clean glass through dirty screens
- Exposed track cleaning, where dirt, dead bugs, and grime collect
- Frame and sill wiping on interior windows
- A thorough rinse that clears off the buildup our Florida climate leaves behind
If something needs more than a standard clean, like heavy mineral staining or paint overspray from a remodel, we’ll point it out and talk it through before we start. No surprises on the invoice.
Why Window Cleaning Costs More (and Matters More) in Southwest Florida
Glass in Bonita Springs takes a beating that most of the country never sees. A few local conditions are working against your windows year-round.
Hard water is the big one. Sprinklers that hit the glass leave mineral spots, and if those sit too long they start to etch into the surface. By the time you can see the buildup from inside, it’s already been working on the glass for weeks.
Salt air adds to it. Homes closer to the coast pick up salt residue that dulls glass and comes back faster. Add pollen, humidity, shotgun fungus, and lovebug season, and Florida glass simply soils faster than it does in cooler, drier places.
For the exterior, we use a water-fed pole with a purified-water system. The water is essentially distilled, so it dries clean with no mineral residue and no streaks. That’s what lets us get a spot-free finish without wiping every pane by hand.
Clean windows are also part of keeping the whole exterior looking right. If the glass is due, the siding usually is too. Our house washing covers the rest of the exterior when you want the full curb-appeal refresh.
How Often Should You Clean Your Windows in Bonita Springs?
Twice a year is the practical minimum here. For homes near the coast, on lots with sprinklers hitting the glass, or under heavy tree cover, every three months keeps the buildup from ever getting bad. If you wait until the windows look dirty, you’ve usually waited too long.
The best stretch for exterior cleaning runs roughly October through April or May, before the rainy season sets in. That also lines up with when a lot of our seasonal homeowners are back in town.
If you’re a snowbird, we can clean before you arrive so the house is ready, and keep the windows maintained while you’re away, whether your place is in Bonita Springs or one of the other areas we serve across Southwest Florida. Booking regular service also saves you money, since windows cleaned on a schedule have less buildup and take less time.
We back our window cleaning with a five-day rain guarantee. If a hard, sideways rain hits within five days and dirties the side we cleaned, we come touch it up. No callback charge.
Is Professional Window Cleaning Worth It vs. DIY?
Hiring out pays off most on the second-story glass, the hard-to-reach spots, and anywhere working off a ladder puts you at risk. That risk climbs the higher up the window sits, and it’s the part homeowners most often underestimate.
The bigger reason is the finish. Hard-water and mineral buildup shrug off store-bought cleaners, and scrubbing too hard can scratch the glass. We remove that buildup with the right approach and leave the glass clear, not smeared.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does window cleaning cost per window in Bonita Springs?
Exterior-only runs about $8 per window after our $150 minimum, or $12 per window for inside and out. Where your total lands depends mostly on window count, so a compact home hits the minimum while a large two-story climbs from there.
Do windows with more panes cost more to clean?
No. We price per window unit, so a multi-pane French window counts the same as a single-pane slider. Grid and French windows take a little longer to detail, but that doesn’t change what you pay.
Is there a minimum charge for window cleaning?
Yes. Our minimum is $150, which covers up to 10 windows. Most companies carry a minimum somewhere between $100 and $250 to cover travel and labor.
Do you charge per window or per pane?
We charge per window, meaning the whole window unit, so your quote is simple and predictable. Many national guides quote per pane, which can make comparing prices confusing.
How much can I save by cleaning windows on a schedule?
Windows cleaned regularly carry less buildup, so each visit takes less time than a once-in-a-while deep clean. Homeowners on a routine schedule also get first call for our busy dry-season window from October through spring.
Can you clean antique or stained glass windows?
Yes, and we clean them by hand with products safe for delicate glass. Let us know about any specialty glass when you book so we plan the job around it.
How often should I have my windows cleaned in Florida?
Twice a year is the practical minimum in Bonita Springs, and quarterly is better for coastal homes or ones with sprinklers hitting the glass. Salt air, hard water, and pollen dirty the glass faster here than in drier regions.
What if it rains right after you clean my windows?
Our window cleaning comes with a five-day rain guarantee. If a hard, sideways rain hits the side we cleaned, we come back and touch it up at no charge.
