Window Cleaning in Graz
Window Cleaning in Graz
A written schedule of services, the same registered team, and the price in writing after a free site visit.
02. What Window Cleaning at Bling Bling covers
The scope of work in Graz at a glance — what the contract says and what actually happens on site.
Taking insect screens out and refitting them
The frame comes off, the mesh is cleaned on both sides, the frame and the magnetic strip are done as well, and it goes back on. Left in place, the mesh can only be dusted.
Aftercare for seals and fittings
Seal profiles are treated with a care product after cleaning, fittings are oiled and checked for movement. A dry, compressed seal splits in winter.
Glass inside and out
Both sides in one visit, so that nothing is left half done. With glazing bars this is largely hand work and is recorded as such.
Frame, rebate and drainage
The rebate is where the dirt settles, and the drainage holes are the ones that get blocked. Both are part of every visit.
Window sill and reveal
The outer sill in metal or stone, the inner sill and the junction. On aluminium sills we work without a strongly alkaline agent, because it dulls the coating.
Box-type windows with four surfaces
The outer and the inner window, each on both sides, plus the space between them and its sill. That is four times the time of a single casement and is costed separately.
The winter inversion in the Graz basin lays a fine, grease-bound grey haze on glass that shows up at once against the light: in the inversion months the street side needs a shorter cycle than in summer. In the old-town conservation area there are many timber windows with glazing bars, so hand work without a blade and with regard for the putty bevel and the paintwork. On the western slopes the question is access and somewhere to set up equipment, not the area.
03. Window Cleaning: Bling Bling vs. the competition
Window cleaning is quoted by the window, but the work is in the type: a box-type window has four surfaces to clean, a window with glazing bars means a great deal of hand work, and a sliding element on the third floor needs access that has to be planned. Quoting a flat rate per window means saving on the frame and the rebate — and that is where the dirt sits that runs over the freshly cleaned pane in the next rain. We record the windows by type at the site visit, work with demineralised water and put the rebate, frame and sill into the scope. The work is done by fixed staff who know the building and how to get in. In Graz, Bling Bling works with the same core team that knows the building.

06. 10 reasons for Window Cleaning from Bling Bling
What a cleaning company has to be measured against — and which of it can be verified.
1In business since 2014
A family firm, not a franchise and not a broker — whoever quotes also carries out the work.
2Registered core team
Permanently employed and properly registered. No chain of subcontractors where nobody is liable at the end.
3The same people every time
The team knows the building, the access and the routines. Cover is arranged and named in advance.
4€3m public liability
Personal injury, property and financial loss covered; the certificate is attached to the quotation.
5RKI/VAH-listed agents, HACCP
Listed agents, trained staff, a cleaning and disinfection plan for each building.
6Multilingual
German, English and five further languages — the briefing gets through.
7No price without a site visit
A flat price over the phone rarely holds. After the visit the framework is set out in writing. A monthly flat rate applies to weekly recurring cleaning; one-off and deep cleans by effort - hourly, per square metre or flat - travel included.
8Dated proof
Record of each visit and photo documentation, reported monthly.
9Windows and sun shading in one appointment
External blinds, venetian blinds, roller shutters and insect screens are done in the same visit with us, instead of a second firm coming for them.
10Taken out rather than dusted through
Insect screen frames and gratings are taken off, cleaned on both sides and refitted. Left in place, half the deposit stays in the mesh.
07. Window Cleaning in 4 more cities
Bling Bling works in Vienna, Graz, Linz, Salzburg and Klosterneuburg — with its own staff on site, not with subcontractors hired in.
08. Window Cleaning for 5 typical situations
The same service looks different depending on the occasion — these five situations come up most often.
After a storm or heavy rain
Blown dust dries as a haze, and silt stands in the drainage. On timber windows that is where damage begins.
The holidays in schools and nurseries
The only window of time in which whole buildings, including corridors, the gym and the group rooms, can be worked on without anyone there.
After decorating or facade work
Paint mist, filler splashes and masking tape residue on glass, frames and sills. It only comes off while it is fresh.
The autumn appointment before the heating season
Sun shading is put away for the winter, insect screens taken off, rebates and drainage cleared, seals treated.
A change of tenants throughout the building
The property manager bundles the empty units into one appointment, and the work is done in one go without regard to occupancy.
★ Worth knowing
What is often misjudged about Window Cleaning
Said up front, on the facts — not after the invoice.
Misted glass on the inside is a moisture question, not a dirt question
Condensation on the inside of the pane and mildew marks in the reveal show that the humidity of the room is condensing at the coldest point — it happens more often after windows have been replaced, because the new joint is airtight and the old leak used to ventilate. We clean the surfaces and treat growth at the surface, and we say where it will come back unless ventilation changes or the junction is improved. With box-type windows the cavity has to be ventilated as well, or the outer pane sweats.
Coatings and films on glass do not forgive a blade
Solar, privacy and safety films sit on the room side of the glass and are softer than it: a blade, scouring powder and hard pads leave marks that stay, and a lifted film edge tears further. Self-cleaning glass has a fired-in functional layer that abrasives and silicone-based care products put out of action. We record before the first visit which pane has what, and work there chemically, with dwell time and a soft cloth.
Streaks rarely come from the product, usually from residue
Surfactant residue and lime from the tap water dry as a film and bind dust; the pane goes grey again against the light although it was cleaned. Demineralised water with a conductivity close to zero dries without residue and does not have to be squeegeed. We do not work in the sun, because the solution dries before it can be taken off — the work follows the shaded side.

●. Frequently asked questions about Window Cleaning in Graz
What does Window Cleaning cost?
There is no price before the site visit, and a figure given over the phone rarely holds. We look at surfaces, access and time windows, and then the cost framework is set out in writing with a schedule of services. What changes the price: the area, the frequency, the condition at handover and the time of day the work is done. Two rules apply everywhere: a monthly flat rate is only offered for recurring cleaning at least once a week, including stairwells. One-off jobs, first cleans and deep cleans are billed by effort - depending on the service by the hour at a higher rate, by square metre or as a flat price - and travel time there and back counts.
Is the site visit really free?
Yes, free of charge and without obligation. It is the only way to quote seriously, so we treat it as part of the offer, not as a service to be paid for.
Does the same person come every time?
Yes. The team is permanently employed and knows the building, the access arrangements and the routines. Cover is arranged in advance and named, and it works from the building log, not from a verbal handover.
Is your staff properly registered?
All of them, with social insurance. No chain of subcontractors in which nobody is liable at the end. Proof is provided on request.
What insurance is in place?
Public liability of €3m, covering personal injury, property damage and financial loss. The certificate is attached to the quotation.
What happens if something is not right?
It is put right within 48 hours, in writing, at no extra cost. Measured against the schedule of services and a joint inspection, not against an impression.
Can you work outside business hours?
Yes — early, late, at weekends or on public holidays. In occupied buildings, daytime cleaning in sections is often the better option, because the client sees the work and can raise anything immediately.
Do I have to provide materials or a room?
Materials and equipment we bring. What helps is a lockable store with a slop sink, space for the trolley and somewhere for pads to dry — damp pads in a closed bag are the most common source of smell in an otherwise clean building.
What notice period applies?
The contract is terminable monthly. There is no minimum term and no automatic extension by the year.
Do you also work in English?
Yes — German, English and five further languages. The briefing gets through, which matters more on site than it sounds.
Which documents do I get?
A schedule of services with frequencies, a dated record of each visit, photo documentation before and after, and a monthly report.
How quickly can you start?
Usually within a few working days of the quotation being accepted. Short-notice jobs are most readily possible in Vienna, because travel times within a district are short.
