Window cleaning questions & answers
Practical answers about prices, appointments and services in Lucerne, Kanton Luzern and nearby towns.
Prices & quotes
Transparent pricing for window cleaning in Lucerne and nearby towns.
What does professional window cleaning cost in Lucerne?
Cost depends on glass area, access and soiling. For homes in Lucerne and nearby towns, use the guide prices on our home page or request a binding quote. Offices, shopfronts and special buildings are quoted after details or a site visit.
What is included in the window cleaning price?
Standard service covers interior and exterior glass plus frames, rebates and sills. Blinds, conservatories and nano coating are quoted separately. Your quote lists exactly what is included.
Is the quote binding? Are there hidden costs?
After your details or a visit you receive a fixed price for the agreed scope. Extra work only happens by prior agreement, so planning stays predictable.
How do I request a quote?
Use the online quote form: window count, floor and address are enough for many apartments. For offices, shopfronts or conservatories, describe the property briefly and we reply with a fixed price.
Can I deduct window cleaning on my tax return?
In Switzerland, maintenance costs on property may be relevant depending on your situation. We issue a proper invoice. For tax treatment, please ask your tax advisor — we do not provide tax advice.
Window cleaning in Lucerne and nearby towns
Service area focused on Canton Lucerne and the main local communities.
Which area do you cover for window cleaning?
We focus on Canton Lucerne: Lucerne city, Kriens, Emmen, Horw, Ebikon, Malters and nearby communities. Our base is Werkstrasse 11, 6102 Malters, with short routes into the agglomeration.
Do you clean windows in Kriens?
Yes. Kriens is part of our core area — homes, offices and local businesses. Include your address and window count in the quote request.
Do you serve Emmen, Horw, Ebikon and Malters?
Yes, all four towns are served regularly — from single-family homes to larger commercial sites in Emmen. Each town has a dedicated local page with service links.
Is there a travel charge in Lucerne and nearby?
Within our core Canton Lucerne towns, travel is often included or minimal. The quote shows the final amount clearly.
Services for private homes
Apartments, houses and household special cases.
Do you clean windows in apartments and houses?
Yes. Private homes are a main focus — one-off cleans or spring and autumn maintenance in Lucerne and the surrounding towns.
Do you clean inside and outside?
Yes — as agreed in your quote. State whether you need exterior only, interior only or both. Frames and rebates are part of our complete service.
Are frames, rebates and sills included?
Yes. Professional window cleaning at GlasRein.ch includes glass, frames, rebates and the sill — not just the pane.
Do you offer window cleaning for move-out handover?
Yes. Before handover we clean windows and, if agreed, blinds and boxes to the required standard. Book early before holidays or tight handover dates.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
Not always, if all rooms are accessible. Many clients provide keys or meet us briefly at the start. Discuss access for interior work when you are not on site.
Offices, businesses and shopfronts
Commercial glass and window cleaning in the Lucerne agglomeration.
Do you clean offices in Lucerne and Kriens?
Yes. Office window cleaning is planned discreetly and efficiently — outside core hours on request. Fixed prices and intervals are agreed individually.
Do you offer regular shopfront cleaning?
Yes. Flexible intervals (e.g. weekly or monthly) for retail in Lucerne and nearby. Clean shopfronts support your brand — we keep schedules reliable.
Do you handle larger commercial sites in Emmen?
Yes. Emmen is part of our regular schedule. For large glass areas or difficult access we clarify method and safety before quoting.
Appointments, preparation and process
How to plan and prepare for a visit.
How soon can I get an appointment?
In Lucerne and nearby we often schedule within 2–5 business days. For urgent move-outs or events, call us — free dates are also shown on the appointments page.
How should I prepare for window cleaning?
Clear window sills (plants, décor) if possible. We bring floor protection. For conservatories or blinds, describe the scope in your quote request.
Can I choose a date online?
Yes. On the appointments page you see open calendar days and can send a request. Confirmation is by us — the form is prepared without automatic booking.
How do I pay and receive an invoice?
After the job you receive an invoice by email or post with a standard payment term. TWINT or cash on site may be possible by agreement. Business clients receive invoices with VAT shown.
Do you clean after pollen season or renovation?
Yes. After pollen or construction work, windows are often heavily soiled — we adjust method and time accordingly. Photos or a short description help us quote accurately.
Do you bring your own equipment?
Yes — ladders, water-fed poles, cleaning products and protection materials. You do not need to supply tools.
How can I contact you with questions?
Use the contact form, quote form or phone. For dates, also use the appointments page. We usually reply quickly during business hours.
Special services: blinds, conservatories and nano coating
Add-on services beyond standard window cleaning.
What does conservatory cleaning include?
We clean conservatory glazing inside and out, frames and, on request, roof areas and hard-to-reach corners. Scope and price are defined in your quote, often with photos.
Do you clean blinds, shutters and louvres?
Yes — a popular add-on, especially in spring. Dust and deposits are removed carefully without damaging mechanisms.
Do you offer nano coating for glass?
Yes. Nano coating makes maintenance easier: water and dirt bead off more readily. Useful for roof windows or hard-to-reach glass in Lucerne and nearby.
Do you clean solar or PV panels?
On request we clean accessible PV surfaces gently with demineralised water. Soiling can affect output — we do not quote fixed percentage gains. Scope and safety are agreed in advance.
Quality, safety and cleaning products
How we work, materials and insurance.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry business liability insurance with coverage up to CHF 5 million. Safety on your property is a priority.
What cleaning products do you use?
We use professional biodegradable concentrates and pure-water (osmosis) systems where suitable — for streak-free results with a careful impact on glass and the environment.
How do you clean high or hard-to-reach windows?
We use water-fed poles and osmosis where appropriate for many façades without scaffolding. Extreme heights are assessed before quoting.
