Window cleaning in Mallorca

Salt and limescale cloud the glass within weeks. Hestia keeps a house's windows on the interval its part of the island actually needs.

Window cleaning in Mallorca

Window cleaning in Mallorca: summary

Hestia cleans the glass of private villas across Mallorca: sliding doors, windows, glass balustrades and screens, insect screens and the tracks where sand collects. On the coast the useful interval is every four to six weeks, because of the salt; inland it is quarterly, because of lime in the irrigation water and dust off the fields. Rates are published in the 2026 rate card and confirmed after a survey of the property.

Why it matters

Why does glass cloud over faster here?

On the front line — Port d'Andratx, Portals Nous, Santa Ponsa, Canyamel — the breeze leaves salt on the glass every day. The sun dries it in place and sets it into a haze that no cloth will take off: it has to be treated, and sometimes the pane is marked for good.

Inland, in Son Vida, Santa Maria del Camí or Binissalem, the problem is a different one. The irrigation water is hard, and when the sprinklers reach the window the lime dries in droplets that eventually etch the glass. Summer dust off the fields does the rest.

That is why the schedule is not the same across the island, and why the slider tracks are part of the job: the sand that collects there is what scratches the pane every time the door is opened, and that scratching cannot be undone.

Questions

Window cleaning in Mallorca: FAQ

How often should the windows of a villa in Mallorca be cleaned?

On the coast, every four to six weeks: salt is set by the sun and is far harder to remove once it has been there for months. Inland a quarterly clean is usually enough. In houses on the annual programme the interval is fixed in the approved calendar.

Do you clean high windows and rooflights as well?

Those are quoted at the property visit, because the price depends on height and access. Interior glass, glass balustrades and terrace sliders are part of the ordinary work.

How much does window cleaning for a villa cost?

It is charged at the housekeeping rate, €34 per hour excluding VAT, with a three-hour minimum. In houses on the annual programme it is included in the monthly fee. A firm price follows the property survey.

Can limescale already etched into the glass be removed?

Sometimes. Recent deposits can be treated and the glass recovers; after years of it the pane stays hazed and the only answers are polishing or replacement. That is why the schedule matters more than the product.

Do you clean the outside of the glass on houses with several floors?

Levels reachable from the ground or from terraces, yes. Glazed elevations and heights that need special equipment are quoted separately once we have seen the access.

Is it part of the annual maintenance programme?

Yes. On the annual programmes the glass is cleaned inside the calendar, on the interval the area calls for, and it is documented in the photo report after each visit.
