High-Rise, San Francisco and Oakland Only: Rope access by a vetted partner crew, quoted separately per building.

What Changes the Price

Number of Panes: More glass means more labor time.
Height and Access: Ground-level glass is faster than glass that needs a lift or rope access.
Inside, Outside or Both: Interior glass adds time and tenant coordination.
Frequency: Recurring service keeps buildup lower, so each visit can take less time.
Condition: Hard water stains, paint and construction residue take extra work.

One-Time vs Recurring Pricing

One-time, monthly and quarterly visits are all priced by estimate. Recurring service usually costs less per visit because the glass stays in better condition between cleans.
