Quick answer

A semi-detached house runs **€50 to €90 outside only**, and **€80 to €160 inside and out**. Regular visits every 4 to 8 weeks cost less, at **€25 to €45**, because the glass never builds up heavy grime.

Window cleaning Dublin prices are set by the size of the house, how easily the cleaner can reach the glass, and whether the inside is included. Most Dublin window cleaners price per house for regular rounds and per window for one-off jobs. The figures below draw on Bark’s 2026 window survey, Dublin price lists and our own rates.

## How much does window cleaning cost in Dublin?

A window clean in Dublin costs about €55 to €80 a visit in 2026, and Bark puts the Dublin average at €75, VAT included. Bark’s figures come from more than 6,000 requests to over 1,000 window cleaners. Galway averages slightly less, at €70.

House size moves the price most. Bark’s exterior-only ranges run from €40 to €70 for a small terrace or bungalow up to €100 to €160 or more for a three-storey home.

Dublin Cleaners charges from €60 for the outside of a 2 to 3-bed house and €95 for interior and exterior. Our [window cleaning service in Dublin](/window-cleaning/) confirms the price from the number of windows and how the back of the house is reached.

## What do Dublin window cleaners publish?

Published Dublin window prices start at about €50 to €60 for a standard house. Best in Ireland’s July 2026 roundup reproduces a few company price lists. One Dublin exterior cleaning company charges €55 to €60 for a 1 to 3-bed semi or terrace, and €60 to €70 for a four-bed semi, VAT included.

Another company on the same list prices by window count, with VAT included. Its minimum call-out of up to 10 windows is €79.45, rising to €96.47 for 10 to 15 windows and €119.17 for 20 to 25. A third offers up to five windows, inside and out with frames, from €50.

Marketplaces show hourly rates. ConnectCleaner lists window cleaners in Dún Laoghaire at €21 to €33 an hour, with a full house at €94 to €224 and visits of 1.5 to 3 hours. Bark’s house-cleaning survey puts window cleaning as an add-on at €100 on average, excluding VAT.

## How much more is inside and outside window cleaning?

Interior and exterior cleaning costs about €80 to €160, according to Bark, roughly double an outside-only visit. Inside work takes longer because the cleaner moves furniture, protects floors and works around blinds and sills. Most Dublin homes book the outside regularly and the inside less often.

The first clean is the dearest. Bark puts a one-off or first exterior clean at €50 to €100, against €25 to €45 once a home is on a round. If your windows have not been cleaned in a year or more, expect the first visit to be priced at the higher figure.

## What makes window cleaning more expensive?

Height, access and extras add most to a Dublin window cleaning quote. Bark says most residential cleaners use telescopic water-fed poles to reach up to three storeys from the ground, and a three-storey home costs €100 to €160. Tight side passages, dormer windows and glass over a conservatory roof can mean ladders, which take longer.

These are the common extras on a Dublin quote:

-   **Frames, sills and doors:** Bark says these add €10 to €25 to a glass-only price.
-   **Conservatory:** €30 to €100 or more, mainly for the roof panels.
-   **Hard water marks and paint spots:** need scraper blades and specialist treatment, according to Bark.
-   **Large glass:** patio doors and picture windows take longer than small casements.
-   **No rear access:** a cleaner who has to come through the house needs someone home.

Period houses sit at the top of the range. On Airtasker, an exterior clean of a Georgian home in Dublin, which needed a tall stepladder, was agreed at €300 in September 2026.

Paint spots and silicone on new glass are common after an extension. They are usually removed as part of an [after builders clean](/after-builders-cleaning/) rather than a routine window round.

## Are window cleaning prices different across Dublin?

Area matters less than the house itself. Bark found Dublin, Cork, Wicklow, Kildare and Kerry all average €75 a visit. Within Dublin, the bigger differences come from storeys, access, parking and how quickly the glass gets dirty between visits.

Water quality is one local factor. Water from the Leixlip treatment plant carries 150 to 300 mg/l of calcium carbonate, according to a South Dublin County Council reply, while Ballymore Eustace water is near 50 mg/l. Hard water dries to a chalky film, so limescale marks on glass doors and shower screens are more common in Leixlip-fed areas such as Fingal and Lucan.

Coastal homes, such as those around [Dún Laoghaire and the seafront](/service-areas/dun-laoghaire/), can need more frequent exterior cleans because sea spray leaves a film on the glass. Busy roads and nearby building sites have the same effect.

## Do window cleaning prices include VAT?

Window cleaners differ on this. Revenue lists cleaning and maintenance services at the 13.5% reduced rate, so a net quote can rise by that much. Bark’s window figures include VAT, and so do the company lists in Best in Ireland’s roundup, but its house-cleaning add-on average of €100 excludes it.

A €70 quote “plus VAT” from a registered company becomes about €79. A window cleaner who is not VAT registered adds nothing. Ask for the final total before you choose between two cleaners.

Our €60 and €95 window prices are the totals you pay.

## How to get an accurate window cleaning quote

Tell the company the house type, the number of storeys, whether there is a conservatory, and how the back garden is reached. Say whether you want outside only or inside and out. With those details, most Dublin window cleaners can confirm a fixed price without a visit.

Ask three questions before booking: are frames and sills included, does the price include VAT, and is there a lower rate for a regular round. If you are moving out of a rental, inside windows are often part of an [end of tenancy clean](/end-of-tenancy-cleaning/), so check before booking them twice.

## Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to clean the windows of a 3-bed semi in Dublin?

Expect about €50 to €90 for the outside only, according to Bark's 2026 figures, with a typical price near €70. One Dublin exterior company charges €55 to €60, VAT included. Dublin Cleaners charges from €60 for a 2 to 3-bed house exterior and €95 for interior and exterior.

How often should windows be cleaned in Dublin?

Bark's figures assume a regular exterior clean every 4 to 8 weeks, which costs €25 to €45 a visit. Homes on busy roads, near the coast or close to building sites get dirty faster. Many households have the inside glass done less often than the outside.

Do window cleaners clean frames and sills?

Not always. Some prices cover glass only, while others include frames, sills and the front door. Bark says frames and sills add about €10 to €25 to a glass-only quote. Ask what is included, because a €20 gap between two quotes often comes down to this.

Can windows be cleaned in the rain?

Light rain does not usually stop an exterior clean, because the glass is rinsed as part of the job anyway. Strong wind and storms are the usual reason to reschedule, for safety on ladders and poles. Interior cleans go ahead in any weather, so it can make sense to book both together.

Do I need to be home for a window clean?

Not for an outside-only clean, as long as the cleaner can reach the back garden through a side gate or lane. For interior cleans, someone needs to let the team in and move fragile items off the sills. Tell the company about locked gates, dogs and parking before the visit.

## How we checked these figures

We used Bark's 2026 window cleaning guide (VAT included), Bark's house cleaning add-on table (VAT excluded), company price lists reproduced in two 2026 Best in Ireland roundups of Dublin window cleaners, a marketplace that shows local rate bands (ConnectCleaner), and one recent Dublin job on Airtasker. Each window price was confirmed on the page it came from. Company prices came to us through a directory, so we name the directory and its date. Where a source mixes VAT-inclusive and VAT-exclusive prices, we say which is which. Our own window prices are quoted as totals.
