Residential Window Cleaning in Tacoma, WA

Window Cleaning Tacoma WA

Spot-Free Windows for Residential Tacoma Homeowners

You probably notice it most in the mornings. A haze across the glass, a sticky film on the sills from the trees overhead, pollen dust that settles before the sun burns off. In the Pacific Northwest (PNW), Tacoma homes sit under heavy tree canopy and persistent overcast for most of the year, and windows collect the evidence. Sap, pollen, organic debris, and the kind of slow grime that mild, wet weather never rinses away on its own.

Our crew at Window and Gutter Cleaning Ninjas cleans that buildup pane by pane, by hand, with a squeegee and clean microfibers, inside and out, backed by a streak-free guarantee. This is detail work, not a spray-and-wipe pass, and the difference is visible the moment we finish.

Whether your windows need a first clean in years or you want to stay on a regular schedule, call us at (253) 820-3573 for a free written estimate.

Types of Windows We Service in Tacoma

Not all windows clean the same way. A double-hung tilts in. A French pane has a dozen small lights that each need individual attention. A skylight means roof access and fall protection.

We adapt the method to the window, and we price accordingly.

Single-Hung Windows

One operable sash, priced as one pane. These are the most common configurations in Tacoma-area homes. Our crew hand-tools each one with a squeegee and microfiber, interior and exterior.

Double-Hung Windows

Two operable sashes, priced as two panes. Both sashes are cleaned inside and out, and tilt-in sashes are handled without damage. Double-hung windows are prevalent across Tacoma's older residential stock, which means more surface, more panes, and more thoroughness required per window.

French Panes

Multiple small divided lights within one frame, each pane priced individually. Our crew cleans these pane by pane with detailed microfibers on the dividers. There are no shortcuts on French panes. They take longer than a standard window, and both the time and the pane count are factored into the quote.

Storm Windows

The outer storm layer is priced individually alongside the interior window. Our crew removes and replaces storm panels where needed, then cleans the interior glass after. Storm windows are common in older Tacoma homes and are a frequent source of missed grime between the layers.

Oversized Panes

Large fixed or picture-style panes, approximately 8 feet tall and similar, priced individually with a size premium. Where height requires it, the crew sets up 32-foot ladders and stabilizer bars. The squeegee technique adapts to the extra surface area.

Leaded Glass and Stained-Glass Panes

Leaded and stained-glass panes can't be squeegeed without risking the lead seal, so we hand-wipe them with a microfiber on a case-by-case basis. On panes that aren't in good shape, we'll honestly tell you it's better to pass. The crew assesses conditions before committing, and that honest assessment is part of what you are paying for.

Skylights

Skylights are accessed via ladder and roof transition and priced with the rest of the pane count. Fall protection is set up before any roof access. The crew flags condition issues like cracked seals or frame damage before cleaning begins.

Construction-Clean Windows

Post-construction glass carries caulk residue, paint overspray, and sticker adhesive that a standard clean cannot touch. This work requires razor blades and carries a premium over standard per-pane pricing. The crew confirms the scope before starting. Construction-clean is a different job than a routine window clean, and it is quoted accordingly.

Screen Cleaning and Deep Track Cleaning

Screen cleaning and deep track cleaning are optional add-ons you can include with any window cleaning job.

Screen cleaning is priced as part of your written estimate. Ask for it when you request your quote and the crew will confirm the price alongside your window total.

Deep track cleaning runs $50 per track. The track is removed from the frame, shop-vacuumed, and scrubbed out by hand before being reinstalled. It is a time-intensive step most customers skip on routine cleans, but it makes a visible difference on tracks that have not been serviced in years. Most homeowners book it once a year or before a significant event.

Why Tacoma Homeowners Choose Us for Window Cleaning

Plenty of window cleaners work in Tacoma. Here is why homeowners stick with us.

Veteran-Owned and Locally Rooted in Tacoma

This company was started by an Air Force veteran who settled in Tacoma after being stationed in the area. We are locally owned, locally rooted, and locally accountable. We live in this community, know these homes, and show up exactly when we say we will.

Hand-Tooled, Pane by Pane

About 90 to 95% of our window work is hand-tooled with a squeegee and clean microfibers. The hand-tool standard is how we control the quality on every pane, and it is what separates a detail job from a volume run.

We Redefine What Home Service Looks Like

We show up on time, communicate clearly, and deliver excellent work every visit. The industry has a low bar. We do not. You will know when we are coming, what we are doing, and what the job costs before we touch a single pane.

Give More in Value Than We Take in Payment

We give more in value than we take in payment, and we mean it. Two percent of every job we complete goes back into Tacoma. Local schools, local churches, and the youth programs our team coaches and volunteers with all benefit from every clean we do.

How Our Tacoma
Window Cleaning Works

Step 1: The Free Written Estimate

Start with a phone call, an email, or the form on our website. We ask for the details that shape your quote: pane count, story height, pane size, interior and exterior scope, and whether you want screen cleaning or deep track cleaning added. From there, we put a written estimate together and send it over. The majority of residential quotes happen entirely by phone.

Step 2: Scheduling and the Pre-Job Confirmation

Accept the estimate and we get your date on the calendar through Housecall Pro. We collect a deposit when the job is booked. You will receive reminders and a day-of confirmation so you know exactly when the crew arrives.

Step 3: Property Walk and Pane Assessment

The crew walks your property on arrival, counts and confirms panes, and checks for anything that needs to be flagged before cleaning begins. Pre-existing damage like scratches, blown seals, or cracked frames is pointed out to you before a single pane is touched. Ladders go up with stabilizer bars and leg levelers placed on uneven ground, and 32-foot ladders are deployed for windows above two stories.

Step 4: Hand-Tool Cleaning

Each pane is cleaned by hand with a squeegee and Glass Gleam-4 solution, then detailed with clean microfibers. Interior and exterior are done on the same visit unless you requested exterior-only. French panes, storm windows, and oversized panes are handled individually. Leaded and stained-glass panes are hand-wiped with microfiber only.

Step 5: Water-Fed Pole Where It Fits

On about 5% of jobs, we switch to a carbon-fiber water-fed pole with purified (deionized) water. No cleaning solution is involved. It is a rinse-only method used on returning clients with recurring plans or windows where screen removal is not practical, and only when it genuinely serves the job better than hand-tooling.

Step 6: Add-Ons

If you booked screen cleaning, the crew handles that to the agreed scope and reinstalls the screens. Deep track cleaning at $50 per track means each track is removed, shop-vacuumed, scrubbed by hand, and reinstalled. Every add-on is scoped and confirmed before starting.

Step 7: Walkthrough and Invoice

Before the invoice is sent, the crew goes over the finished job with you. Any streak or concern you flag is addressed on the spot. We do not invoice until you are satisfied with what you see.

  • Screen Cleaning (add-on): Priced and confirmed in your written estimate at quoting.

Service Plans

We offer window cleaning on three cadences. Pick the one that fits your home and the crew handles the scheduling from there.

  • One-time clean: No plans and no commitments.
  • Biannual service plan: We visit twice a year on a pre-scheduled basis so you never have to worry about it.
  • Quarterly service plan: We visit four times a year to keep your windows clear of pollen, sap, and tree debris.
  • Biannual plan customers get 10% off any other service they book with us. Quarterly plan customers get 15% off.

Our Window Cleaning Guarantee

Streak-Free Window Guarantee

If you spot a streak right after we clean, call us. We’ll come back and touch it up free. If it’s a blown seal or a scratch that was already there, that’s not something we can fix, but we’ll still come out and show you what we’re seeing.

Before cleaning begins, the crew flags any pre-existing damage so you always know what is new versus what was already there.

Our Commitment to Quality

If you are not satisfied with our work, we will make it right. We aim to provide more value than we take in payment, and we stand by that promise.

What Customers Say

We had the Ninjas clean the windows inside and out at our retail store, and the experience was fantastic! Running a business leaves us with little to no time for jobs like this, so we were happy to leave it to the professionals. The quote was more than reasonable, sent directly to my email, and scheduling was quick and easy. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and helpful, and our windows look great! We’ve now signed up for cleanings twice a year. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Kylee, thank you so much! We're really glad we could take that off your plate so you can focus on running your store. It's great to hear the process felt smooth from quote to scheduling, and we're looking forward to keeping those windows looking sharp twice a year!
Amazing fast work!!!
Response from the owner:Thanks, Daniel! We're glad we could get it done quickly for you. Hope to work with you again soon!

Isaiah did a great job! He was on time, and we were alerted via text ahead of time with his arrival time to the minute, which was nice. We booked exterior window cleaning and gutter cleaning, and he did a great job taking care of that and went an extra step to add moss treatment and cleaned our skylights! He also was honest and talked about a good frequency for future gutter/moss treatment cadence, which I really appreciated as that will help us save some money on unnecessary maintenance but also added something on my radar that I hadn’t been aware of. I’ll definitely plan to use them again.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much, Lanes! We're really glad the scheduling and communication made things easy, and that our team went the extra mile on the skylights and moss treatment. Honest advice on maintenance is something we genuinely care about. We look forward to working with you again!

Without a doubt, we could not be happier. This is the second year that we have had outdoor Christmas lights installed by NINJA and we couldn’t be more pleased. The technician who installed the lights was respectful of our property and home and was so personable. Isaiah was such a great technician, he explained how he would install the lights and gave us multiple options for timing the lights. Isaiah was an amazing young man and as an employer, you should be very proud of him. Isaiah represents your company well ! As Isaiah left , he said that if we had any issues, not to hesitate to call. Thank you for your wonderful service. Happy holidays to all of you!!! 😊🎉😊🎉
Response from the owner:Sheila, thank you so much! Two years in a row means a lot to us, and we're so glad the experience has been a good one both times. Our team takes real pride in treating every home with care, and it's wonderful to hear that came through. Happy holidays to you and your family!

Highly recommend the Ninjas! Jason went out of his way (a trip to Home Depot!) to complete my gutter repair. As a senior with little knowledge of home repair, I felt confident in the quality of the work and care given to explain procedures to me. Terrific work!!

I highly recommend Gutter Cleaners & Window Ninjas! Austin did a fantastic job at my house in August 2026. He was professional, thorough, and did an excellent job. He created a mess with all the moss that was stuck in my sagging gutters but he cleaned up the yard, flowerbed & driveway before he left. He also reattached the gutters that had come loose. I was very happy with the quality of his work and would definitely recommend Austin and Gutter Cleaners & Window Ninjas to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality service.
Response from the owner:Carol, thank you so much! It's great to hear our team took care of everything so thoroughly, from clearing out all that moss to cleaning up the yard and flowerbed and even reattaching the loose gutters. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to work with you again!

I saw a billboard advertising Window & Gutter Cleaning Ninjas. Thought I would give them a try. Glad I did. Their prices were competitive. Jason was prompt, professional and pointed out a problem with a couple of our new windows. I would definitely refer Jason and the Ninjas. Love being able to see out my shiny clean windows
Response from the owner:Thanks so much, Bev! We're really glad the billboard caught your eye and that you gave us a shot. Competitive pricing, clean windows, and catching that issue with your new ones, that's exactly what we aim for. We'd love to be your go-to crew going forward!

I typically don’t offer to write reviews….but when a company goes above and beyond… First of all - my windows look amazing… and when I had a concern about a couple streaks the day after- they came right out and helped me identify an issue with the glass. Gabriella - who will help get you scheduled or assist with concerns. These guys are perfectionists- which is a rare find and will assure that you have sparkling windows!
Response from the owner:Jerda, thank you so much for taking the time to share this, especially since you mentioned you don't usually write reviews. That genuinely means a lot to us. We're glad we could come back out and sort through that glass issue with you, and that your windows are looking great!

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "per pane" mean, and how do you count my windows?

Pricing is per pane of glass, not per window unit. A single-hung window with one operable sash counts as one pane. A double-hung with two sashes counts as two. A French pane window with 12 divided lights counts as 12 panes. The crew counts and confirms the total on the property walk before quoting, so there is no surprise count on job day.

Yes. French panes are cleaned pane by pane with detail microfibers on the dividers. Storm windows include the outer storm layer priced individually alongside the interior glass. The crew removes and replaces panels where needed. Both types take longer than a standard window and are factored into the quote.

Leaded and stained-glass panes can’t be squeegeed without risking the lead seal, so we hand-wipe them with a microfiber on a case-by-case basis. On panes that aren’t in good shape, we’ll honestly tell you it’s better to pass. Our crew assesses each pane before committing and will walk you through what we are seeing.

If you spot a streak right after we clean, call us. We’ll come back and touch it up free. If it’s a blown seal or a scratch that was already there, that’s not something we can fix, but we’ll still come out and show you what we’re seeing. The guarantee covers streaks reported promptly, same day to within a few days. Pre-existing damage, blown seals, and other issues outside our control are not covered.

Pollen, sap, and tree debris are not seasonal problems in Tacoma. They build year-round, and your windows show it.
