Clean windows make a huge difference to how your home or business looks, but there’s a noticeable gap between what you can do with a spray bottle at home and what a professional window cleaner can deliver. DIY window cleaning is fine for quick touch-ups, but it rarely gives you streak-free windows or long-lasting results. That’s where Excel Window Cleaning comes in.
With over 20 years in the industry and thousands of happy customers across Geelong, the Bellarine and the Surf Coast, the Excel team knows exactly how to get your windows looking their absolute best.
Here’s why choosing a professional service, especially Excel Window Cleaning, beats DIY every single time.
1. Safety First, Especially for High or Hard-to-Reach Windows
Climbing ladders or balancing awkwardly on steps to clean higher windows is risky. One small slip can lead to serious injuries. The team at Excel Window Cleaning are fully trained, insured and equipped to handle high or difficult windows safely, whether it’s a double-storey home, an apartment balcony or a skylight.
When you hire Excel, you get spotless windows and peace of mind.
2. Professional Equipment Makes a Noticeable Difference
DIY window cleaning usually involves paper towels and supermarket squeegees, which only get you so far. Excel Window Cleaning uses commercial-grade equipment like:
- purified water systems
- telescopic water-fed poles
- professional squeegees
- scratch-safe detergents
- microfibre detailing cloths
This means cleaner, clearer, streak-free windows that stay cleaner for longer, something regular DIY tools just can’t achieve.
3. Streak-Free Windows Require Skill and Technique
There’s a real art to getting windows perfectly streak-free. Excel’s team knows how to angle the squeegee, remove water properly, detail the edges and work efficiently even in full sun. These small professional techniques are what give you that flawless finish.
DIY window cleaning often leaves smudges, streaks or lint behind, no matter how careful you are.
4. Excel Cleans More Than Just the Glass
Most people doing DIY window cleaning focus only on the glass, but a proper clean involves much more. A full service from Excel Window Cleaning includes:
- cleaning tracks
- wiping frames
- washing flyscreens
- removing cobwebs
- treating water marks where possible
- detailing corners and edges
These extras make a huge difference to how long your windows stay clean, and how fresh your whole home looks.
5. It Saves Your Time (And your Weekend)
Cleaning windows properly takes time, especially if you’re doing inside and out. What could take you hours, or even a full weekend, is handled quickly and efficiently by Excel.
Most residential homes can be cleaned in a single visit, leaving you with spotless windows and your entire weekend free.
6. Long-Term Care for Your Windows
Coastal areas like Geelong, Torquay and the Surf Coast can be tough on windows. Salt, dust, pollen and grime build up fast and can cause long-term damage if not cleaned correctly.
Excel Window Cleaning helps protect your glass by removing corrosive build-up before it causes issues. This extends the life of your windows, frames and seals while keeping your home looking bright year-round.
The Bottom Line
DIY window cleaning is great for a quick wipe-over, but when you want spotless, streak-free windows without the hassle, Excel Window Cleaning is the better choice every time. With professional equipment, years of experience and a commitment to high-quality results, the Excel team delivers a finish that genuinely transforms your home or business.
