How much does window cleaning cost in Perth?
Perth window cleaners mostly quote by the house or by the hour. Counting both faces of the glass, a house of up to 10 windows comes to $105–$250, one with 10–20 windows $160–$470, and a home with 20 or more $230–$680. Hourly work is billed at $42–$84. Perth homes run large, and every extra bedroom, sliding door and bi-fold adds glass, so ask how each cleaner counts windows before you set two quotes against each other. Each figure includes GST.

Perth’s dry season is long — December averages 9.6 mm of rain and the three summer months 38 mm together.
Inside and out is $10–$32 a window in the Perth table; for 16 windows that is $304 at the typical rate. A medium home with 10–20 windows is $160–$470.
What Affects Window Cleaning Costs in Perth
Bigger houses, more glass
Across Greater Perth, 45.7% of dwellings have at least four bedrooms, where the Australian figure is 34.8% (ABS 2021 Census). That pushes many local jobs into the 20-plus window band at $230–$680. Patio sliders, bi-fold doors and sidelights next to the entry each add panes, so photos of each side of the house get you a firmer price than a bedroom count.
Upstairs and high glass
Upper floors and awkward glass are priced on their own line at $315–$680, because the crew sets up ladders or a water-fed pole for the upper level. Glass that needs rope access is charged by the technician-hour at $84–$210. Safety at work in WA is overseen by WorkSafe WA, and a rope-access team should be able to show its safety procedures and insurance before anyone goes over an edge.
Outside only, or both sides
Per window, outside only is $6–$19 against $10–$32 for both sides. The inside takes longer because blinds, sills and furniture slow the cleaner down. On a single-storey house, where dust and spray marks gather mostly on the outer face, an exterior-only visit between full cleans keeps the glass looking cared for.
Sprinklers and bore water
Perth gardens are watered on a roster: sprinklers and garden bores run on two set days a week, once, before 9am or after 6pm. A sprinkler that reaches the glass leaves drops that dry in place and can mark the window, and those marks may need more than a standard pane clean. Turn heads away from the windows, and point out any spotting in your enquiry.
Summer heat and winter rain
January and February average above 31 °C at Perth Metro, while June to August bring more than half the year's rain, peaking at 147.0 mm in July (BOM averages). Under a hot afternoon sun the solution evaporates on the pane and streaks, so summer cleans often start early. An outside clean finished just before the heavy rain will not stay clear for long.
Tracks, screens and skylights
Sand and dust settle in sliding-door tracks, and clearing them is a separate charge of $3–$16 a window in our table. Fly screens and frames may be extra too, so ask what the base price covers. Skylights need roof access and their own visit, at $210–$420 for one or two.
How to Save Money on Window Cleaning Cost in Perth
- Photograph each wall of glass and attach the pictures to your enquiry, so the price reflects the real window count rather than a guess.
- Hold the outside clean until the rain eases after August; glass cleaned in June meets the wettest weeks of the Perth year.
- Angle sprinkler heads away from the glass before the cleaner comes, or the next rostered watering day can spot freshly cleaned windows.
- Doing just the outside at $6–$19 a window, in the months between full cleans, costs less than both sides and keeps street-facing glass bright.
- Move pot plants, outdoor furniture and anything on the sills before an hourly job starts, since the cleaner's setup time is charged at $42–$84.
- Ask whether a standing booking every three or six months is priced below a one-off visit, and get that rate in writing.
