Glass balustrade cleaning

What glass balustrade cleaning with us looks like

Glass balustrades are the hardest glass on a house to keep clean. They face the weather at full height, they have two sides and the outer one usually hangs over a drop, and they take salt, rain spots, handprints and the white tide marks that hoses and sprinklers leave along the bottom.

We clean the inside face by hand or with the pole from the balcony, and reach the outer face from the ground or the level below with the water-fed pole where we can. Pure water means no spots on either side. We clean the spigots, standoffs and base channels too, because salt and grit build up there and stain the glass from below.

On high balconies we never lean over or rest ladders on the glass. If the outer face can't be reached safely, we say so at the quote and clean what we can reach well.

Why it matters

What you get

Both faces

Inside from the balcony, outside from below with the pole wherever it can be reached safely.

Spigots and channels

Salt and grit build up in the fittings and stain the glass from the bottom up. We clean them too.

No spots, no streaks

Pure water rinse, so the glass dries clear without wiping marks.

Safe on high balconies

No leaning over, no ladders on glass. We plan the reach before we start.

Our method

How we do it

Google review, Lou
Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy.

Step 01 of 04

Plan the reach

We work out which faces are reached from the balcony and which from below, and what is out of safe reach.

He was professional, responsive, and delivered exactly as promised.

Step 02 of 04

Clean the fittings

Spigots, standoffs and channels are brushed and rinsed first, so grit doesn't run down the clean glass.

Wash both sides

Soft brush and pure water on each face, working from the top rail down.

Excellent service! Nathan is punctual and nothing is a problem.

Step 04 of 04

Rinse and check

A final pure-water rinse, then we check each panel from both sides once it has dried.

White marks along the bottom of the glass

A line of white spots along the bottom of a balustrade is usually sprinkler or hose water that dried on the glass, plus minerals washing out of the tiles or concrete below. Fresh marks come off with a normal clean. Old ones have often bonded and need a mineral remover. If the mark is etched into the glass, it won't come out completely, and we tell you before we start.

Coated glass

Some balustrades have a factory or after-market coating that makes water bead and run off. Harsh cleaners and scrapers damage those coatings. We use pure water and a soft brush, which is safe on coated glass, and avoid blades and abrasive pads on any balustrade.

Nathan just completed a pressure wash of our travertine pavers under our alfresco area, around the pool and the sundeck. What an absolutely fantastic job. Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy. We will certainly be calling him back on a regular basis and can highly recommend him.

Nathan did a great job washing the external sides of our house. The weatherboard was dirty and had cobwebs. Nathan went above and beyond our expectations, the house was perfectly clean and all the cobwebs were gone.

Can you clean the outside face of a high balcony?

Often, from the ground or the level below with the water-fed pole. If it can't be reached safely, we tell you at the quote.

Do you clean the stainless fittings?

Yes. Spigots, standoffs and channels are cleaned with the glass, because salt in them stains the glass.

How often should balustrades be cleaned?

Every two to three months on an ocean-facing balcony, and every three to six months elsewhere.

Can you remove white spots from the glass?

Fresh ones, yes. Old mineral spots may need a remover, and etched spots can't be fully removed.

Is your method safe for coated glass?

Yes. Pure water and a soft brush don't harm coatings. We don't use blades on balustrades.

Can you do the balustrades with the windows?

Yes. Most clients book them together, and the price is lower than two separate visits.
