Services → Post-Construction Window Cleaning
Post-construction · New builds & renovations · Toronto & the GTA
Fresh construction leaves dust, debris, mortar splatter, silicone, paint overspray and adhesive film baked onto your windows. We remove all of it across Toronto and the GTA — without scratching the glass — so your build passes inspection and shows its best on day one.
Construction dust & debris removal
Removing construction dust and debris from windows isn't the same as a regular wash. Standard washing smears fine residue instead of lifting it — and dragging trapped grit across coated glass leaves permanent scratches. Each type of debris below needs its own method, tool and dwell time.
Drywall, stucco and site dust bonds into a haze that ordinary cleaning just moves around. We flood and rinse it off before any blade touches the pane.
Alkaline and gritty. Softened with the correct dwell solution, then lifted — never dry-scraped across the surface.
Left by glazing and sealant crews. Removed with solvent and razor technique that keeps the coating intact.
Spot-treated by paint type so surrounding frames and gaskets aren't damaged in the process.
Manufacturer film and price labels, plus the glue haze they leave behind once peeled.
Deposits from run-off and curing. Treated before they etch permanently into the glass.
Why "just wash them" backfires: new float and low-E glass is softer and more coating-dependent than people assume. A single pass with trapped grit under a squeegee or blade can micro-scratch an entire elevation — a cost that lands on the builder, not the sub. Our process is built to prevent exactly that.
The method
Post-construction glass is a two-stage job at minimum: rough debris removal, then a detailed final polish. Skipping the first stage is where scratches happen.
We inspect residue types, glass coatings, access constraints and where your build sits in the construction sequence, then give you a clear, itemized quote — no surprises on invoice.
Panes are flooded to suspend and rinse away loose grit and dust before any tool contacts the glass. Bonded residue is treated with the correct solution and given time to release.
Only on wet, lubricated glass, using fresh blades and single-direction technique. Coated and tempered panes are flagged and handled with non-abrasive methods instead.
Frames, tracks, gaskets and sightlines are wiped down; glass is squeegeed streak-free and edges are detailed. This is the finish an occupant or buyer actually sees.
We inspect each elevation with you against the light. Anything missed is corrected before we leave — that's the point of a final clean.
Why builders & property managers use us
Full liability coverage and WSIB clearance — the paperwork your GC and PM need before anyone touches glass on site.
Mid- and high-rise elevations get the same finish as the ground, via certified rope-access and swing-stage work.
Wet scraping, fresh blades and coating checks. We'd rather flag a risky pane than hand you a scratched elevation.
The final clean happens after the messy trades finish, so windows aren't re-dirtied the next day.
A renovated condo, a row of townhomes, a storefront build-out or a full curtain-wall high-rise — same standard.
The job's done when it passes inspection with you present — not when we say so.
When to schedule
The most common — and most expensive — mistake is cleaning too early. Polish the glass before the last dusty or wet trades finish and you pay to clean it twice. Post-construction window cleaning should be one of the final tasks before handover, occupancy or listing.
Where we work
Residential, commercial and multi-residential projects — from single homes to high-rise curtain-wall towers.
