Window Cleaning in the Bronx
Rooted right here in the Bronx, Total Window Service brings borough-tested window cleaning to apartments, pre-war walk-ups, co-ops, and commercial buildings across the area. From Riverdale rowhouses to mid-rise blocks along Fordham Road, we understand how Bronx glass actually gets dirty – and we clean it to a clear, streak-free finish, one window at a time.
Prioritizing Your Safety with Every Wash
Cleaning windows in the Bronx means working around busy corridors, tight courtyards, elevated subway structures, and aging building facades. Our team plans every job around the specific access conditions of your address, follows rigorous safety protocols, and uses appropriate equipment for the height and layout in front of us. The result is steady, careful work that protects your property, our crew, and the residents around the job site.
What Our Customers Say
Enhancing Your View and Value
In a borough where so many windows face heavy traffic or face out onto brick and elevated rail, clean glass makes a real difference. Clear windows pull more daylight into Bronx apartments that can otherwise feel dim, sharpen the look of a storefront on a busy stretch, and help you catch frame or seal problems early before they turn into bigger repairs. Regular cleaning keeps your glass working for you season after season.
Committed to the Community
We are a Bronx neighbor, not an out-of-town crew passing through. We know the difference between a quiet Fieldston street and a building sitting two blocks off the Cross Bronx, and we treat every job with that local context in mind. When you book Total Window Service, you keep your business with a company that lives and works in the same borough you do.
Tailored Solutions for Every Window
Bronx buildings are anything but uniform – pre-war brick walk-ups, post-war apartment blocks, co-ops, two-family homes, and taller commercial structures all sit within a few blocks of each other. We assess each property on its own terms, choosing the cleaning method and access approach that fits the window type, height, and surroundings. Whether your glass is reachable from inside a tilt-in sash or needs exterior access, you get care matched to the building, not a one-size template.

Our Comprehensive Window Cleaning Services
We offer a range of window cleaning solutions built around the kinds of buildings the Bronx actually has:
Residential Window Cleaning
From Riverdale single-family homes to Morris Park two-families and apartment co-ops, our residential service brings Bronx windows back to a streak-free shine. We use eco-friendly products that are safe to work around with kids and pets at home, and we clean interior and exterior surfaces wherever access allows – so the whole pane is clear, not just the side you can reach from indoors.
Commercial Window Cleaning
For Bronx storefronts, offices, and apartment buildings, clean exterior glass is part of the first impression you make on tenants and customers. We service commercial buildings of varying heights, including high-rise facades, matching the access method to each structure so every pane – ground-floor display window to upper-story glass – comes out immaculate.
The Benefits of Professional Window Cleaning
For Bronx property owners, professional window cleaning pays off in concrete ways:
- Sharper street presence: Clean glass lifts the look of a Bronx home or storefront, especially on busy avenues where grime shows fast.
- Longer-lasting glass: Clearing diesel film and mineral staining before it bonds helps prevent the etching and pitting that shorten a window’s life in the Bronx.
- Brighter interiors: Removing built-up traffic grime lets more daylight into apartments that face brick, traffic, or elevated rail.
- Less hassle for you: Our crew handles the ladders, access, and cleanup, so multi-story Bronx jobs do not become your weekend project.

How often should Bronx residential buildings schedule professional window cleaning - and does the neighborhood location affect the frequency?
Bronx buildings near the Major Deegan Expressway, Cross Bronx, or elevated subway lines accumulate diesel particulate and brake dust significantly faster than interior residential streets. Buildings within two blocks of heavy traffic routes need cleaning 3-4 times per year to maintain clarity. Buildings on quieter Bronx residential streets – Riverdale, Fieldston, Morris Park – typically clean twice per year. Total Window Service assesses your building’s specific exposure during the estimate visit.
Does Total Window Service require Bronx co-op or condo board approval before accessing windows from outside the building?
For exterior access from building property – roof anchors, courtyard ladders, or facade – building management sign-off is required, and Total Window Service handles that coordination directly. For standard window cleaning accessible from inside the apartment, no board approval is needed. Total Window Service is fully insured and provides a Certificate of Insurance (COI) to building management on request.
Can window cleaning remove the hard water deposits and calcium buildup common on Bronx pre-war brick buildings?
Standard window cleaning removes surface dirt and grime but does not remove mineral deposits bonded to the glass. Hard water calcium and lime scale require a separate glass restoration treatment using acid-based compounds. Total Window Service identifies mineral deposit buildup during initial inspection and quotes restoration separately from cleaning – so clients know exactly what each service addresses before any work begins.
What access method does Total Window Service use for high-rise Bronx buildings - and is a scaffold required?
Access method depends on building height and configuration. Buildings up to 6 stories typically use extension ladders and internal tilt-in window access. Mid-rise buildings use boom lifts or scaffold where building layout permits. High-rise buildings above 10 stories use rope access – Total Window Service uses IRATA- and SPRAT-trained rope access technicians, trained to the international standards for high-angle work. Scaffold is only specified when rope access is not feasible.
Does Total Window Service clean both interior and exterior windows in the same visit for Bronx residential apartments?
Yes – standard residential cleaning includes both interior and exterior surfaces in a single visit. Interior cleaning requires apartment access coordinated with the resident. For occupied buildings, Total Window Service schedules unit-by-unit access in advance. For vacant units or during turnover, building management can provide access directly. Cleaning both sides in one visit is more efficient and produces better optical results than exterior-only service.
What happens if a window is damaged or cracked during cleaning - who is responsible and how is it handled?
Total Window Service documents the condition of every window before cleaning begins using CompanyCam job photos with timestamps. Pre-existing cracks, chips, or frame damage are recorded and shared with the client before work starts. If damage occurs during the job that was not pre-existing, it is covered under Total Window Service’s general liability insurance. Clients receive the pre-job photo record automatically as part of the project documentation.
