Local rules and what to check

Western Cape government guidance says a business licence or Certificate of Acceptability is not required for a cleaning services business, and sources on starting a cleaning business in South Africa say no special licence or permit is needed. Large jobs are different. A public tender for window cleaning, for example, requires the winning bidder to submit a health and safety file before work starts. For a building with several floors, ask the company how it works at height and what safety file it can provide.

Season and timing

Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August, so November is the start of the warm season. Booking now gets the glass clean before the summer months. A monthly contract suits a building that needs its windows done every few weeks, while a one-off job suits a single clean, for example before a sale or a move.

How window cleaning is priced

Prices are quoted per window, per visit, per hour or per building, and the rate changes with the pane size. Residential work is often priced per visit, while commercial buildings are quoted per square metre or as a monthly retainer. Ask whether the quote covers one side or both sides of the glass. Higher windows need more equipment and time, so give the height in metres as well as the number of windows.

What to write in the request

Give the number of windows and roughly how many floors the building has, plus whether you need one side or both cleaned. Say what type of property it is, whether the glass has stains, and the suburb or city. Add the date you want the work done, how often you want it repeated, and your budget in rand, so sellers can quote a realistic price straight away.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the job in your own words in a free chat, and you can add a photo of the windows. The AI reads the request, asks for missing details and searches sellers' websites and price lists in South Africa, then shows you prices and businesses. Window cleaning companies registered on BlaBlaPrice receive the request and reply in the chat with their own quote, terms and availability. Your contact details stay hidden until you decide to exchange them. For a house, see Home & house cleaning, for offices Office & commercial cleaning, or read how it works.
