Etobicoke is a mix of apartment buildings and houses. The three Etobicoke wards had about 149,000 households in the 2021 Census. About 64,500 lived in apartment buildings of 5 storeys or more, and about 51,700 lived in single-detached houses. We clean both, and the method depends on the height of the building.

For us, high-rise work begins at 7 storeys. We do it with rope access and bosun chairs (seats that hang from a rope). Our rope access technicians are SPRAT and IRATA certified.
On buildings of 1 to 6 storeys, we mostly use water-fed poles with four-stage filtered water.
We mostly use a water-fed pole on houses too. We clean the inside of the windows, the screens and the tracks on request.
For stores, offices and restaurants, our work goes beyond the outside glass. We also clean lobby glass and interior partitions.
After construction, we usually clean the glass by hand. See our post-construction cleaning services.
The water first runs through a four-stage filter. It takes out the dissolved solids, down to 0 ppm (parts per million), so nothing is left to dry as spots. We scrub the glass with the brush on the end of the pole and rinse it with the same pure water.
Outwash has over 15 years of experience, so we know which method suits which building. For more, see our main page on window cleaning services in Toronto.

We also serve nearby Mississauga, Bloor West Village and High Park, and other parts of the GTA. Pick a place to open its window cleaning page.
