Streak-free windows, with the price stated before we start
You are looking for a window cleaner in Paris or the Hauts-de-Seine and nobody will tell you what it costs. That is the first problem we set out to fix: our rates are published below, per square metre and as fixed packages, without you having to pick up the phone. For a typical three-room Paris flat, expect €89 to €149 including VAT — €44.50 to €74.50 once the 50% tax credit is applied.
Ménage Parfait Services works out of Paris 8th with 35 salaried agents — no subcontracting, no passing freelancers. We clean the windows of Haussmann-era flats, houses across the 92 and 78, retail shopfronts and office floors, on a one-off basis or under a regular contract.
- Published rates: public price grid, written quote within 24h, no call-out fee across Paris and the inner suburbs.
- Purified water: demineralised water on exterior glazing — no mineral residue, so no streaks once it dries.
- Salaried agents: 35 agents on permanent contracts, trained in window cleaning, covered by professional liability insurance.
- 50% tax credit: Services à la Personne licence n°2023-433. With the URSSAF immediate advance, you only pay half.
Window cleaning prices in Paris: our rate card
The Paris market runs from €4 to €12 per square metre of glazing depending on the job, with Île-de-France sitting roughly 15% above the national average. Here are our rates. They are indicative: the final quote is issued free of charge once your glazing has been described precisely.

|---|---|---|---|
| Studio / 1-bedroom flat | up to 10 m² | €79 incl. VAT (fixed) | €39.50 |

Useful benchmark: a standard window is about 1.5 m², a patio door 4 to 6 m². A Paris three-room flat is typically 15 to 20 m².
Why windows get dirty faster in Paris than elsewhere
It is not your imagination. Four factors specific to Paris buildings and Paris air accelerate soiling on glazed surfaces, and they determine the cleaning frequency you actually need.
- Fine particles and traffic soot. On a façade facing a boulevard or a busy street, the greasy film reforms within a few weeks. That carbon deposit is not water-soluble: it needs a suitable surfactant, otherwise the squeegee simply spreads it around.
- Hard water across Île-de-France. Paris tap water is hard. Washed with it, a pane dries leaving mineral deposits — the familiar white streaks. That is precisely why we work with purified water outdoors.
- Haussmann windows with glazing bars. Older glazing multiplies corners, putty lines and connecting flashings. A rushed clean leaves a grey border that becomes obvious the moment low sunlight rakes the façade. These areas need hand-drying with microfibre, corner by corner.
- Courtyards and loaded rainfall. Facing a courtyard, stagnant humidity encourages micro-organisms in the seals. Facing the street, roof run-off redeposits dirt with the very first shower if the sills were not cleaned at the same time as the glass.
Our window cleaning method, step by step
Professional window cleaning is not domestic window cleaning done faster. It is a precise sequence in which each step determines the next. Here is exactly what our agent does at your property.
1. Dry dusting and protection
The agent starts by dry-removing dust from sills, frames and corners. Wetting before dusting turns dust into mud, which redeposits on the glass as it dries. Floors and furniture beneath the window are protected.
2. Stripping frames and connecting flashings
Connecting flashings, sliding-door tracks and rebates concentrate residue. If they are not cleaned first, the next rainfall washes that dirt back down over freshly cleaned glass. This is the step low-cost jobs systematically skip.
3. Washing: applicator, surfactant, squeegee
A low-dosage ecolabelled surfactant solution is applied with a T-bar, then removed with the squeegee in overlapping passes, blade wiped between each. The squeegee is not a drying tool: it is an evacuation tool. The stroke and the angle decide the result, not the product.
4. Purified water outdoors: the zero-streak method
On exterior glazing we use purified — demineralised — water. Because it no longer carries mineral salts, it dries without leaving any deposit: the pane can be rinsed and left to air-dry, including on surfaces that cannot be hand-wiped. This is the technique that lets us clean high-level glazing properly without touching it.
5. Limescale and hard-spot treatment
Embedded limescale, paint spatter, cement or adhesive residue after building works: none of this comes off in a routine wash. It needs a descaler suited to glass, a blade at a shallow angle and immediate rinsing. We always flag pre-existing scratches and chips before starting.
6. Hand finishing and raking-light inspection
Borders, corners and seals are hand-dried with microfibre. The final check is done in raking light, from the side — the only angle that reveals residual haze. A pane that looks perfect head-on can be a failure viewed at three-quarters.

How your enquiry works
Five steps, with no sales appointment forced on you.
- You estimate. Using the rate card or the estimator above, you know your range before any contact.
- You describe your glazing. By phone or through the form: property type, number of windows or approximate area, floor, access. Two photos are often enough.
- We quote within 24h. A written, itemised quote showing the after-tax-credit figure for households. Free technical survey if access is complex or high-level.
- You pick the slot. Usually within 48h to 72h. Before opening or after closing for retail, out-of-hours for offices.
- Inspection and sign-off. The agent carries out the raking-light check with you. Signed work docket for business clients, touch-up within 48h if needed.
⚠️ Be wary of 'from' prices with no defined area.
A window cleaning rate means nothing until the glazed area has been counted on both faces, frames included. A contractor who quotes a price without asking that question will revise it upward on the day. Always insist on a written quote stating the area used, the working height and what is included (sills, frames, shutters).

Frequently asked questions about window cleaning in Paris
- Quel est le prix d'un nettoyage de vitres à Paris ?
Comptez 79 € TTC en forfait pour un studio ou un 2 pièces, 89 € à 149 € TTC pour un 3 pièces (15 à 20 m² de surface vitrée) et à partir de 5 € TTC/m² pour une maison. Après le crédit d'impôt de 50 %, ces montants sont divisés par deux : un 3 pièces revient donc à 44,50 € à 74,50 €. Pour les vitrines et les bureaux, le tarif démarre à 5 € HT/m², dégressif à partir de 50 m². - Comment se calcule la surface vitrée à nettoyer ?
La surface se compte recto plus verso, encadrements et appuis inclus. Une fenêtre standard représente environ 1,5 m², une baie vitrée 4 à 6 m². Un appartement parisien de 3 pièces tourne généralement autour de 15 à 20 m². Méfiez-vous d'un prestataire qui annonce un tarif sans avoir posé la question de la surface : le montant sera ajusté à la hausse le jour de l'intervention. - Le nettoyage de vitres donne-t-il droit au crédit d'impôt de 50 % ?
Oui, pour les particuliers. Le lavage de vitres à domicile relève des Services à la Personne. Avec l'Avance Immédiate de l'URSSAF, vous ne réglez que la moitié de la facture et l'URSSAF nous verse le reste directement. Ménage Parfait Services est titulaire de l'agrément n°2023-433. Les vitrines commerciales et les locaux professionnels ne sont pas éligibles. - Pourquoi mes vitres gardent-elles des traces après lavage ?
Trois causes dans la quasi-totalité des cas. L'eau : celle du robinet en Île-de-France est calcaire et laisse des dépôts minéraux au séchage, d'où notre usage d'eau osmosée en extérieur. La poussière : mouiller une vitre sans l'avoir dépoussiérée à sec transforme la poussière en boue qui se redépose. Le geste : la raclette évacue l'eau, elle ne sèche pas ; il faut essuyer le caoutchouc entre chaque passe et finir les bordures à la microfibre. - À quelle fréquence faut-il faire nettoyer ses vitres à Paris ?
Sur une rue passante, l'encrassement par les particules fines et les suies impose un passage toutes les 6 à 8 semaines. Sur cour ou dans une rue calme, tous les 3 à 4 mois suffisent. Une vitrine de commerce demande 1 à 2 passages par mois selon le flux, un plateau de bureaux du mensuel au trimestriel. Un seul passage par an revient plus cher au m² car le décrassage de départ doit être refait à chaque fois. - Intervenez-vous sur les vitres en hauteur et les vérandas ?
Oui. Jusqu'au R+2, nous travaillons à la perche télescopique alimentée en eau osmosée, sans toucher la vitre. Au-delà, l'intervention se fait en nacelle ou en travail sur cordes, après visite technique gratuite et plan de prévention. Vérandas, verrières et Velux relèvent d'un tarif spécifique à partir de 8 € TTC/m² car ils cumulent toiture vitrée, profilés, chéneaux et mousses en rive. - Dans quels délais pouvez-vous intervenir et sur quelles zones ?
Le devis écrit part sous 24h ouvrées et l'intervention a lieu sous 48h à 72h dans la plupart des cas. Nous couvrons Paris, les Hauts-de-Seine (Neuilly, Levallois, Courbevoie, Puteaux, La Défense, Boulogne-Billancourt, Clichy, Suresnes, La Garenne-Colombes) et l'ouest des Yvelines (Poissy, Saint-Germain-en-Laye, Le Vésinet, Chambourcy). Aucun frais de déplacement sur ces secteurs.
