Let’s be honest - cleaning your windows probably isn’t your idea of a great Saturday. Most people don’t wake up thinking, “You know what I’m excited to do today? Wash all the windows!” If you’re like most homeowners or business owners, it’s a task that keeps getting pushed to “next weekend,” and then maybe “next month,” and then… well, you get the idea.
So at some point, you start to ask yourself the question:
Is hiring a professional window cleaning company actually worth it?
We get this question a lot. And we’re not just here to say “yes” because we’re a window cleaning company (though - spoiler - we are). We're here to give you an honest look at what you're really getting when you hire a pro, and why for most people, it’s not just worth it - it’s a no-brainer.
If you’ve never hired a window cleaning service before, you might assume it’s just someone showing up with a squeegee and a bottle of Windex. But a good professional window cleaner brings way more to the table than that.
Here at Buffalo Window Washing, our window cleaning service includes:
The end result? Crystal-clear windows that look amazing - without the time, stress, or hassle on your part.
We’re all for rolling up your sleeves and tackling home projects yourself when it makes sense. But window cleaning? It’s one of those chores that sounds simple until you actually do it.
Here are a few reasons our customers tell us they’re done with DIY window cleaning:
It starts as a “quick” job, but somehow you’re still outside three hours later dragging your ladder around the house, dripping water all over your patio, and trying to figure out how to get that one last streak off the living room window. If you have more than a few windows (especially on a two-story home), it can easily turn into a full weekend project.
Wiping your windows with paper towels and blue cleaner might work in a pinch, but it’s hard to get a truly streak-free finish that way - especially if it’s sunny out and the cleaner dries too fast. We use professional-grade squeegees, soft scrubbers, water purification systems, and specialized extension poles that make a huge difference in quality.
Let’s not sugarcoat it: ladders and water aren’t the best combo. We’ve had customers call us after slipping off their own ladders or realizing halfway through that a second-story window just isn’t worth the risk. We’re trained and insured to handle that safely - so you don’t have to.
Even if you manage to clean all your windows yourself, there’s a good chance you’ll still end up with some drips, streaks, or missed spots - especially around the edges, in the tracks, or behind screens.
So now let’s talk about the good stuff. When you hire a professional window cleaning company like ours, here’s what you’re really getting:
We’ve cleaned thousands of windows, and we bring the right tools and experience to every job. That means fewer streaks, no missed spots, and windows that actually shine - inside and out.
Instead of spending your day climbing ladders and wrangling hoses, you can relax, run errands, or spend time with your family while we handle the work. Most residential jobs are done in just a few hours.
Clean windows can completely transform the look of your home or business. They make the entire property feel brighter, fresher, and more well cared-for - especially when paired with pressure washing or gutter cleaning.
You’d be surprised how much more light comes through after a professional cleaning. If your windows are dull or foggy, a good cleaning can make a huge difference in the feel of your space.
Dirt, hard water spots, and environmental build-up can slowly damage your windows over time. Regular cleanings help prevent etching, corrosion, and long-term wear on the glass.
If you own or manage a business, professional window cleaning isn’t just about aesthetics - it’s about professionalism and customer experience.
Here’s why it’s worth every penny:
Dirty windows can make even a beautiful storefront look neglected. Whether you run a restaurant, office, salon, or retail shop, clean windows send the message that you care about quality - right down to the details.
Employees work better in bright, clean spaces. Customers feel more welcome in stores that are well-lit and sparkling. Clean windows are a simple way to improve the entire atmosphere of your business.
Grime, salt, bird droppings, and airborne debris build up fast - especially in Buffalo. Regular window cleaning keeps your building looking fresh and protects your glass from permanent damage.
The answer depends on your location, the season, and how much you value a consistently clean look.
Here’s a general guide:
We also offer seasonal maintenance plans, so you never have to remember to call us -it just gets done, like clockwork.
Hiring someone to work on your property is always a bit of a trust exercise. Here’s what we recommend looking for when choosing a window cleaning company:
Google reviews, Facebook, and even Nextdoor can give you a feel for a company’s reputation. Look for consistent 5-star feedback, especially when it mentions reliability, professionalism, and results.
Accidents are rare, but you want to be covered if something does go wrong. A reputable company won’t hesitate to show proof of insurance.
We’re proud to be a Buffalo-based, family-owned company. Supporting local businesses keeps money in our community and usually means better customer service, too.
Some companies quote “window cleaning” but don’t include interior glass, tracks, or screens. We’re always transparent - no surprises or upcharges.

If you’re tired of streaky windows, don’t want to spend your weekend dragging a ladder around, and value your time, yes - hiring a professional window cleaning company is 100% worth it.
