Window cleaning costs $8–$16 per window for interior and exterior in Rochester Hills, which puts a typical home at $200–$400 per visit. In Michigan the per-pane rate runs about $5.60–$8.10. Windows above the second floor cost more, screen cleaning is usually an add-on, and most companies have a job minimum of $100–$250. Frequency and hard-water buildup move the number most.

Per window vs. per pane
The confusing part of any window-cleaning quote:
- Pane vs. window
A window is the whole unit in the wall. A pane is one sheet of glass inside it. A standard double-hung window has two panes; a grid or colonial-style window can have six or more. Companies that price "per pane" look cheaper per unit but count more units — always confirm which one a quote uses.
Ask any company whether the quote is per window or per pane before you compare two numbers. It's the single biggest source of apples-to-oranges confusion.
What drives the price
Four factors move a Rochester Hills window quote:
- Number of stories. Glass above the second floor needs extra equipment and safety setup, pushing those windows to $10–$40 each.
- Screens and tracks. Pulling, cleaning, and re-seating screens and wiping out the tracks is labor most quotes itemize separately.
- Hard-water buildup. Michigan's hard water leaves mineral spotting and sprinkler overspray stains that need a dedicated treatment, not a normal wash.
- Frequency. A home cleaned twice a year is faster each visit than one cleaned once every three years with a season of grime built up.

Why we bundle windows with gutters
Most Rochester Hills homeowners need windows and gutters done on a similar cadence, and both are ladder-and-height work. Booking them together saves a second trip charge and a second day of someone on a ladder around your home. Few companies offer both well — we run gutter cleaning and window cleaning as one crew, which is part of how we keep the per-visit cost reasonable.
Common add-ons
Itemized extras to expect on a detailed quote:
- Screen cleaning — almost always separate from the glass.
- Track and sill detailing — the dirt that collects in the frame.
- Hard-water / mineral removal — a treatment, not a standard wash.
- Skylights and specialty glass — priced individually.
