Edinburgh's tall sash windows are part of the city's character – and they're hard to clean yourself. Window cleaners cover Georgian New Town flats, tenements in Marchmont and Leith and houses in Morningside, Corstorphine and the suburbs.
Water-fed poles let cleaners reach upper floors safely from the ground. For flats, some owners arrange cleaning through the building factor; houses are usually on rounds every four to eight weeks.

Sash windows and common stairs
Georgian and Victorian sash windows are large, with many panes and wooden frames. Exterior cleaning from the street with a water-fed pole works well; inside cleaning is done traditionally and often booked a few times a year.
Many tenements and New Town buildings have window cleaning arranged by the factor, and some flats have windows that can only be cleaned from inside. Check what your building has before booking.
Edinburgh's wind and rain push grime onto exposed windows, and homes near main roads collect traffic film.
Inside sash windows
Inside sashes need care: the frames are often old and delicate. Professional window cleaners use squeegees and scrims rather than harsh scrubbing. See how to clean windows without streaks for the method.
Before selling
Clean windows make a big difference in listing photos. Many sellers book a window clean, inside and out, just before photos are taken – see cleaning before selling your house.

Scotland's cities have a lot of tenement and flatted housing, so cleaning often involves stairs, shared closes and properties without lifts, which can affect how long equipment-heavy jobs take. Water in most of Scotland is soft. Wetter weather in the west makes condensation and mould a regular issue, and Edinburgh and other tourist centres have strong demand for short-let changeover cleaning.
