8 Best Window Washing Services in Ottawa

You could have regular or seasonal window cleaning days with a trusty bottle of Windex and rags. However, windows require deep cleaning to keep the panes and all parts sparkling and clear, too. 

So for huge windows and those that require a tall ladder, you’re better off with the best window washing services in Ottawa.

There are also some handy FAQs at the end of the listicle which can hopefully clear up concerns you may have.

The Best Window Washing Services in Ottawa

Ready to get your windows sparkling clean and looking new? Then it’s time to review the best window washing services in Ottawa.

We selected the ones in this listicle based on the following factors:

1. Performance Window Cleaning

Performance Window Cleaning throws a bit of shade at one of the other companies in this listicle. It states that they’re “not a student-run organization” and that its technicians take their work seriously.

Snide remarks aside, this company’s workers are fully bonded, insured, properly compensated, and have been checked and cleared of criminal records. The window technicians are trained for safety compliance, too.

It primarily does window washing for residential clients but also performs house washing, commercial pressure washing and window cleaning, gutter cleaning, and residential pressure washing for decks and driveways.

Performance Window Cleaning has done work for notable clients like Ford, Mercedes Benz, and Ashbury College.

On the website, there’s a page for what initially looks to be a pricing guide. But scrolling through the long and meandering text about “perceived value” with the bottom line of customers respecting service providers leaves us cold (and still clueless about any sort of pricing information).

Customer Reviews

Respectful and dependable

“Brock is great, respectful and dependable. We recommend Performance Window Cleaning to our clients. They are very professional and have a unique method of cleaning. 5 Stars!” – Marilyn Wilson

The guys were professional and courteous

“Really happy with the work they performed – my windows are so clean!! 🙂 And the guys were professional and courteous. Would definitely recommend.” – Tracey Crane-Laham

2. Quantum Cleaning Services

Quantum Cleaning Services is a locally-owned and operated business that serves clients in the Ottawa and Gatineau areas. It’s primarily known for its carpet cleaning service but also offers comprehensive deep cleaning for residential clients.

The company does basic window washing services for interior and exterior windows, too. However, its team can only accommodate exterior cleaning for up to two stories.

Clients can choose between eco-friendly cleaning solutions and more traditional ones. This is quite a considerate move to give customers choices, as well as helpful information on both the non-toxic and chemical products.

To sweeten the deal, potential customers can request free quotes on both the products and the cleaning service they require.

Each technician is equipped with proper tools and gear in compliance with Health Canada guidelines for the pandemic. We think it’s great that Quantum prioritizes the health and safety of its team members as well as its clients for every job.

Customer Reviews

Offers natural cleaning products

“Very professional, excellent cleaning and also offer natural cleaning products.

Highly recommended!” – Beatrice H.

Fast, punctual, clean, fair price

“D’arcy did an awesome job. Fast, punctual, clean, fair price and accurate. Thanks for the great work. I’ll be referring all my clients needing your services to you!” – Bill V.

3. Clear Ottawa

Clear Ottawa has one of the most unique (and handy) referral programs we’ve seen so far. Clients can simply refer a friend and make money via a tiered system that could save them hundreds of dollars (starts at $30 for one referral).

It’s a Better Business Bureau-accredited locally owned company that’s been around since 2010. Clear Ottawa serves both commercial and residential clients and offers free estimates for potential customers.

One of the things that make it stand out from other window cleaners is its soft washing system. It’s designed to thoroughly clean surfaces without causing damage or leaks while meeting industrial-grade cleaning standards.

It also uses eco-friendly cleaning soap and solutions to ensure no damage on glass and frames occurs. All its technicians are properly equipped with the tools for the job so the clients can rest assured they won’t have to bring out their own supplies.

And unlike other companies that can only clean a couple of stories, Clear Ottawa can even wash higher windows and even skylights.  

We just wish there were some base pricing information offered, though clients can always ask for a free quote instead.

Customer Reviews

Very pleased with the results both inside and outside

“Found Clear Ottawas Windows through Better Business Bureau. They actually came 2 days early for the exterior and interior window cleaning. Full crew (more than 40 windows) and they did a great job. I was very pleased with the results both inside and outside. Windows are sparkling clean. Very professional and courteous. I will hire them again.” – MaryLou O’Rourke

Polite and worked really hard

“We were so pleased with the excellent quality of work that this team performed. Shishamu and Eugene were polite and worked really hard to give us beautifully cleaned windows and gutter. Highly recommended!” – Stephanie Watson

4. Diamond Windows & Eaves

Diamond Windows & Eaves is relatively new to the scene, but that doesn’t mistake them for amateurs. These window cleaning and pressure washing specialists can get the job done. 

Since they entered the business, they’ve been making homeowners’ windows sparkling and squeaky clean, leaving all these customers thoroughly impressed. 

They make use of soap that is biodegradable, streak free and specifically designed for residential windows, and the result of using it is amazing. 

However, they only have these two services listed on their website. So, if you’re looking for a company that can do more, you may look through the list for more options. 

On the whole, we highly recommend Diamond Windows & Eaves the same way their past customers do! 

Customer Reviews

Here are some reviews from their clients:

“The best in the business. Very punctual and made my house look the nicest on the block!!!.very professional and very polite highly recommended“

“Great services and prices, wouldn’t go to anyone else in the city for quality window cleaning“

5. Krystal Klear Window Cleaning

Krystal Klear Window Cleaning offers its window washing services to both residential and commercial clients. It can also accommodate carpet, eavestrough, and siding cleaning.

And while it has “window cleaning” in its name, the company appears to specialize in carpet cleaning instead. It’s the only service with a price guide for residential customers, and even mentions a 20% discount on window cleaning with every carpet cleaning appointment!

But since it offers free estimates to potential clients, that’s arguably the best time to inquire about pricing breakdown. Its website does promise to provide customers with a full competitive cost analysis upon inquiry.

All of Krystal Klear’s work is guaranteed and fully insured, as well. General client feedback mentions the professionalism by which its team handles jobs.

To be honest, though, the website needs upgrading so potential clients can be enticed with helpful information, photo galleries, and better navigation. 

Customer Reviews

Great rates, professional staff

“Great rates and professional staff. I highly recommend Krystal Klear.” – Eric

Fantastic job done

“An amazing job done. We were putting our home on the market and needed the windows done inside and out. Believe me, they were filthy as we had been having work done outside. I couldn’t believe it when Trevor said they could come on the same day. Fantastic job done. Thank you!” – Dot

6. Ottawa Student Windows

Not a lot of window washing companies will hire post-secondary-aged people on their team, but Ottawa Student Windows would beg to differ. It’s made up of post-secondary education students and has a charitable partnership with The Boys and Girls Club.

There are two types of window cleaning services offered here: exterior and interior-plus. Both involve a thorough three-step process that is fully customizable for the client’s needs.

Washing, squeegeeing, polishing, wiping, and cleaning are good steps, but it would’ve been nice to have some high-pressure cleaning options thrown in.

Still, we like how Ottawa Student Windows utilizes eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are non-staining and fully biodegradable. This ensures less harm to the environment and the occupants of the house.

The company confidently guarantees 100% money-back if the client isn’t fully satisfied with the job done or won’t recommend its services to others. 

Potential clients can request a free quote for window cleaning jobs which is practical since there’s no pricing guide for its services.

7. WindowGuru Window Cleaning

Being in the window cleaning industry for more than a decade, WindowGuru Window Cleaning is a well-known window cleaning, gutter and sliding cleaning company in Ottawa. 

As the have been in the industry for quite sometime, they make sure that they provide their utmost service for your window, gutter and siding cleaning needs with their talented and specially trained team.

We are also amazed by this company for they see to it that their services are well costumized to the needs of their clients. They offer one time cleanings, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly depending on the client’s request.

Not only that, they also use products that are environmentally friendly and do not harm their customers’ plants, pets, or other belongings. To ensure a safe and efficient cleaning, they only use the highest quality window cleaning equipment and products.

Good thing that they offer free quote for their cleaning jobs as this convenient because the company doesn’t have a pricing list indicated on their website.

Customer Reviews

“Shout out to the gentleman who cleaned my exterior windows. Professional, friendly and efficient! They went above and beyond what I requested. Highly recommend! Thank-you!” – Maureen Fahey

“The Window Guru did a super job cleaning our windows! They are extremely professional….on time, did an thorough job, and asked for an inspection when they were done. In addition to the windows they did the frames and ledges which were quit dirty due to back yard stone work. The results were immaculate. They will be hearing from us next year.” – Julia Cronin

8. The Student Collective

The Student Collective is a social enterprise that is initiated by students for students not only to deliver comprehensive exterior cleaning services but also to aid students in completing their studies as well. They have since made a name for themselves and are among the leading figures in the area and are locally recognized for their punctual and quality services.

We think that their workers are properly trained and certified to deliver such services in which despite the revenue being divided to support students, they still make sure that each of them is properly insured to ensure a safe service.

Though we find their prices rather high, clients have found them to be a pleasure to work with and leave a spotless clean after they are done with the job which is telling of how much the expense is worth it nonetheless.

Another thing we find notable is their usage of biodegradable products to not only minimalize the detrimental effects to the environment but also to the client’s family as well.

Overall, we would like to recommend their services to clients looking for professional and efficient exterior cleaning services with a hospitable customer interaction that is pleasant to work with before, during, and after the job.

Customer Reviews

Here are some reviews from their clients:

“Fantastic job by Liam cleaning all the construction dust off the inside and outside of my dental office in Stittsville. Professional, polite and efficient. Highly recommended!”

He took great pains not to disturb our garden and left the work site spotless. We are thoroughly satisfied and impressed!”
