Window cleaning in Gordon
Close to half of Gordon's homes are apartments, which means a lot of the window work is inside glass, balcony doors and balustrades for individual owners, while the building's outside faces are handled through strata on a schedule. The walk-ups have external glass that a pole can reach from the garden or car park; the towers rely on rope access or platforms arranged by the owners corporation. In the Federation streets, timber casements, box sashes, fanlights and coloured glass panels need hand cleaning and dry sills. Glass facing the Pacific Highway greys over with brake dust and traffic grime; glass under the gardens collects pollen and sap; and near Stony Creek, flying-fox droppings mark windows, skylights and balustrades overnight.
A vetted window cleaner uses purified water through a water-fed pole for walk-up exteriors and two-storey houses, which reaches three or four storeys from the ground and dries spot-free. Heritage timber windows are cleaned by hand with controlled water so putty and sills are not soaked. Flyscreens come off and are rinsed, tracks are cleared and sills wiped. Should a ladder or the roof be needed, the cleaner works with fall controls as the WHS Regulation requires, and tower exteriors are left to the strata's rope access contractor. Inside apartment jobs are kept within the lot, with drop sheets on floors. Pool fence and balcony glass is cleaned without touching the hardware. Nothing abrasive is used on coated or tinted glass.
Estimate the number of windows, say which it is: tower, walk-up or house, and whether the inside, outside or both need attention. Vetted, independent window cleaners who work in Gordon and the surrounding suburbs are matched to the job and quote you directly. Look for a quote that states the method for high or heritage glass, lists screens, tracks, skylights and balustrades if included, and respects your building's working hours. In the towers, book the lift and a visitor space through the building manager; in the Federation streets, the cleaner parks in the driveway. Matching costs you nothing, and going ahead is optional.

Frequently asked questions
Not independently. The outside of a high-rise is common property, cleaned by rope access or platform crews under the owners corporation's contract. A cleaner we match can do the inside glass, balcony doors and the inner face of the balustrade.
Usually. A water-fed pole worked from the garden or car park will reach, provided there is standing room beneath. Exterior glass is still common property, so the owners corporation approves and usually books it for the whole block.
Whenever they build up, and before hot weather bakes them on. A pole with purified water handles most skylights from the ground; roof access needs fall protection. Some owners book a short clean monthly in the busiest months.
Yes. Tell us the hours set in the by-laws when you post the job, and the cleaner schedules within them. Window cleaning is quiet work, so it is rarely a problem.
