How Much Does Window Cleaning Cost in the San Fernando Valley?

Window cleaning in the San Fernando Valley typically runs from about $150 to $500+ per visit for a residential home, depending mostly on square footage, number of stories, and whether you want interior and exterior cleaning or exterior only.

What drives the price

• Home size: Larger homes have more panes and more glass area, so square footage is the biggest single factor.
• Stories: Two- and three-story homes cost more due to ladder work, safety equipment, and time.
• Interior + exterior vs. exterior only: Cleaning both sides of the glass roughly adds 20-25% to the exterior-only price.
• Screens: Removing, washing, and reinstalling screens is usually a small add-on per visit.
• Solar panels: Often priced per panel and quoted separately from window cleaning.
• Hard water staining: Homes with heavy mineral buildup (common in the Valley given water hardness) may need a restoration treatment beyond a standard clean.

Typical price ranges

For a single-story home under 2,000 sq ft, exterior-only cleaning often falls in the $150-$250 range. Interior + exterior for the same home is usually $200-$320. Larger two-story homes in Encino, Tarzana, Calabasas, and Woodland Hills — often 3,000+ sq ft — commonly run $350-$600+ depending on glass area and access.

Getting an accurate number

Because home layout varies so much, the most reliable way to get a real number is a quote based on your actual square footage, story count, and add-ons rather than a flat "per window" rate.
