For most Dublin homes, every 6 to 12 weeks keeps glass genuinely clean year-round. Coastal homes need the shorter end; sheltered inland homes can stretch longer.

TL;DR

Every 6–12 weeks for most homes. Coastal areas (Clontarf, Sandymount, Howth, Dun Laoghaire) film up faster from salt; busy-road homes collect traffic grime sooner. Our 6/12-week plans run from €30 per visit with 15% off gutters and fascias. See window cleaning costs.

What Dirties Dublin Glass

Salt haze off the bay is the big one on the coast — it re-films glass within weeks. Inland it’s traffic film on main-road frontages, pollen and dust in summer, and algae creeping over shaded frames through winter. Rain doesn’t clean windows; it just redistributes what’s there.

Why Pure Water Lasts Longer

We clean with purified water and soft brushes — no detergent residue left on the glass for the next layer of grime to bond onto. That’s why pure-water cleans stay clearer longer than traditional squeegee-and-soap rounds, especially on the coast.

Our Actual Schedule Advice, Road by Road

Here is the rule we use when customers ask us directly. If you live on a busy road or near the seafront, go every 6 weeks — traffic film and salt spray put dirt back on the glass faster than most people expect. On quieter residential roads, every 12 weeks holds the standard comfortably. Our whole service plan is built around those two intervals, because that is what actually keeps Dublin glass clean rather than a number picked out of the air.

Season matters less than people think, but in opposite ways. In summer there is more sunlight coming through the glass, so every speck shows. In winter there is far less daylight to begin with, so clean glass earns its keep by letting all of it in. That is why we clean all year round rather than treating it as a summer job.
