We are advanced height access experts with all safe access methods

Scaffolding/BMU

We use two types of scaffolding in our practice: supported scaffolding and suspended platforms (cradles). While supported scaffolding provides a stable, ground-based structure for window cleaning, suspended scaffolding offers greater flexibility by allowing platforms to be suspended from roof-mounted rails or tracks. This system enables operators to move up and down as needed, ensuring efficient and thorough cleaning at any height.

Aerial Lifts

For areas inaccessible by rope descent, we utilize boom lifts to provide safe, easy access to building facades. This service can be scheduled any time of the day or night day, depending on client needs.

Rope access

The rope descent system is a safe and highly efficient technique in which technicians descend buildings using ropes. This method allows access to even the most challenging windows, ensuring thorough, precise cleaning.

Scissor lifts

Similar to boom lifts, scissor lifts provide stable access for window cleaning. However, they have some unique distinctions which should be considered before scheduling the service.

Water Fed Pole

An extendable tool equipped with a brush head and an internal pump system that dispenses purified water on demand. This method efficiently removes dust, dirt, pollen, and other debris from exterior windows.

your project

At Top Team Window Cleaning, our success starts with our team. We bring together highly skilled, certified professionals who are passionate about their craft. With years of experience and deep industry expertise, our technicians are committed to delivering outstanding results while maintaining the highest safety standards.

“We engaged Top Team for post-construction window cleaning across a residential building following completion of major internal and external works. The team managed both exterior and interior glass efficiently, working within strict access requirements and coordinating around ongoing site activities. The job was completed without delays or disruption to remaining finishing works, and the final results met the expected standard for turnover readiness across all areas of the building.”

Property Manager

“Top Team Window Cleaning has been handling scheduled window maintenance across several managed residential properties within our portfolio. Their work is consistently well executed, with clear coordination with building management teams and minimal need for supervision on site. The team follows a structured process that fits smoothly into operational building schedules, ensuring services are delivered without interfering with residents or day-to-day building activity.”

Operations Director

“We have assigned Top Team to both routine maintenance and one-time window cleaning projects across multiple residential assets. In each case the scope has included full treatment of interior and exterior glazing, adapted to different building layouts and access conditions. The work has consistently been completed according to expectations with proper site handling and no operational issues requiring follow-up or correction after completion.”

Senior Property Supervisor

“We initially brought Top Team in for a single residential site as a trial within our maintenance framework. The scope naturally expanded to other properties after a few cycles, as the outcome remained consistent across locations, both in execution quality and in how the service integrated into our existing operational schedules. That level of consistency across different sites has made them a reliable part of our ongoing service structure.”

Project Coordinator

“Window cleaning is typically one of the services that requires oversight or occasional correction within the maintenance cycle. With Top Team that has not been the case across the properties we manage. Once access is arranged, the work is carried out within expected parameters without additional coordination from our side, and results remain consistent across repeated service cycles and different building types.”

What are the different window cleaning access methods you use?

We offer a variety of access methods tailored to the needs of each building, including scaffolding/BMU systems, aerial lifts, rope access, scissor lifts, water fed poles, and more. Each method is chosen based on the building’s structure, height, and specific window cleaning requirements.

How do you determine the best access method for a building?

We assess several factors when determining the best access method, including the building’s height, layout, architectural features, safety requirements, and any restrictions such as nearby traffic or space limitations. Our goal is to select the most efficient and safest access method for the job.

Are all access methods safe for high-rise window cleaning?

Yes, all of our access methods are safe for high-rise window cleaning, as long as they are used in accordance with safety guidelines and regulations. Each method, whether it's rope access, scaffolding, or aerial lifts, is specifically chosen based on the unique requirements of the building and the task at hand. We ensure all our equipment and technicians comply with OSHA and other relevant safety standards.

Do you follow specific regulations or safety standards for different access methods?

Absolutely. We strictly adhere to all safety regulations and standards, including those set by OSHA, ANSI, and other relevant organizations. For each access method, we follow detailed safety protocols to ensure the safety of our workers and your property. This includes regular training, equipment checks, and compliance with city-specific regulations.

What factors affect the cost of window cleaning based on access methods?

The cost of window cleaning can vary based on the access method used. Factors such as the height of the building, the complexity of the job, the type of equipment required, and the time it takes to complete the job all contribute to the final price. For example, methods like rope access may be more cost-effective for smaller jobs, while scaffolding or BMUs may be necessary for larger, more complex buildings, potentially resulting in higher costs.
