KEY WEST WINDOW CLEANING AND WASHING
Window Cleaning in Key West, FL
Under The Sun Property Care provides professional window cleaning for homes, vacation rentals, and commercial properties throughout Key West and the Lower Florida Keys. Salt film is a constant problem for any property near the coast — it builds up on glass within weeks of a cleaning, reducing natural light, obscuring views, and making properties look neglected from the street. Our window cleaning service removes that buildup completely, from both interior and exterior surfaces, and restores the clear glass that Key West properties are known for.
Window Cleaning Services We Provide
Exterior Window Cleaning
Salt film, mineral deposits, mold, and oxidation accumulate on exterior glass surfaces quickly in Key West's coastal environment. We clean exterior windows thoroughly, removing all buildup from the glass, frames, and tracks. For second-story and hard-to-reach windows, we have the equipment and training to work safely at height without ladders leaning on your siding.
Interior Window Cleaning
Interior windows in coastal homes collect their own buildup — fingerprints, indoor humidity condensation, and airborne salt that enters through open windows and doors. We clean interior glass surfaces with the same attention as exteriors, leaving streak-free results throughout the home.
Screen Cleaning
Window and door screens in Key West collect salt, dust, and biological debris that restricts airflow and looks dirty even when the glass behind them is clean. We remove, clean, and reinstall screens as part of our window cleaning service.
Commercial Window Cleaning
Storefronts, restaurants, hotels, and commercial properties along Duval Street and throughout Key West need regular window cleaning to maintain professional appearance and comply with tenant standards. We work around business hours and can establish recurring contracts for commercial clients.
Vacation Rental Window Cleaning
Clean windows are one of the first things guests notice — and film-covered or streaked windows are one of the most common photo complaints in vacation rental reviews. We include window cleaning in our maintenance plans for vacation rental properties and can schedule around guest turnovers to ensure the property is at listing photo standards before every check-in.
Why Salt Film Is Such a Problem in Key West
Key West is surrounded by saltwater on all sides. The ocean air carries salt particles that deposit on every exposed surface — including glass. Within 2–4 weeks of a cleaning, a fresh coat of salt film begins to form on exterior windows. Over time, if not cleaned regularly, mineral deposits from salt can etch glass and become significantly harder to remove. In Key West's intense UV environment, this etching can become permanent if left too long.
For vacation rental owners especially, salt-fogged windows are a liability. Guests expect clear ocean views and well-maintained property presentation. A property with dirty windows loses bookings and earns lower review scores. Regular professional window cleaning — typically every 1–3 months for ocean-facing properties in Key West — protects both the glass and your rental income.

Frequently Asked Questions — Window Cleaning in Key West
How often should I have my windows cleaned in Key West?
For properties in Key West, most homeowners benefit from exterior window cleaning every 4–8 weeks. Vacation rental properties and ocean-facing homes may need cleaning more frequently — every 2–4 weeks during peak season — to stay at listing photo standards. Interior windows can typically go 2–3 months between professional cleans. We'll assess your property and recommend the right schedule. Call (786) 933-0510 to get started.
Can you remove hard water and salt stains from Key West windows?
Yes — we treat hard water mineral deposits and salt etching as part of our service. Very old or deeply etched deposits may require additional treatment beyond standard window cleaning; we'll assess this on-site and let you know before proceeding. Regular cleaning prevents deposits from reaching the hard-to-remove stage. Call (786) 933-0510 for an estimate.
Do you clean high windows and second-story glass?
Yes — we have the equipment to reach second-story and higher windows safely. For unusually tall structures, we assess on-site before providing a quote. Most residential properties in Key West fall within our standard service range. Call (786) 933-0510 to confirm for your property.
Do you offer window cleaning as part of a recurring maintenance plan?
Yes — window cleaning can be included in a recurring exterior maintenance plan alongside pressure washing and landscaping. Many of our vacation rental clients combine these services on a quarterly or monthly schedule. Call (786) 933-0510 to discuss a plan for your property.
