Window Cleaning in Melbourne: Keep Your Views Crystal Clear with Caddy Bins
Clean windows make a house feel brighter, smarter, and more inviting — especially here in Melbourne where pollen, sea spray and city dust can build up fast. At Caddy Bins we’re not just about bins and pressure-washing — we also know a thing or two about professional window cleaning. Below is a friendly, practical guide for homeowners and renters who want spotless glass without the stress.
Why professional window cleaning matters
Windows are more than glass — they protect your home, frame your view, and affect how much natural light you get. Cleaning high or hard-to-reach windows can be risky and, if done incorrectly, can damage seals and frames. For jobs at height or where safety equipment is needed, hiring trained cleaners keeps everyone safe and avoids costly mistakes. WorkSafe Victoria has clear guidance on safety for cleaning and workplace tasks — always follow safety rules or use a licensed pro for risky jobs. WorkSafe Victoria
When to clean (timing tips)
For most Melbourne homes, a good rule is a thorough exterior clean twice a year and spot-cleaning inside as needed. If you live near the coast, under trees, or on a dusty street, you’ll want to clean more often. Cleaning on overcast, cool days helps prevent streaks because the cleaning solution won’t dry too quickly — this is a pro tip many window cleaners follow. Mr. Window Cleaning+1
Simple DIY tips that actually work
- Dust frames and sills first so dirt doesn’t turn into streaks.
- Use a mild soap solution and a squeegee, working top-to-bottom in one pass.
- Microfiber cloths beat paper towels — they leave less lint.
- Avoid cleaning in direct sun or strong wind.
These are straightforward steps recommended by experienced cleaning sites and lifestyle experts — small changes make a big difference. Better Homes & Gardens Australia+1
