Blue Grid Media runs Google Ads and Local Services Ads for window cleaning companies across the US: exclusive leads from an account in your name, from $445 a month, month to month.
As Featured In · Our Research Cited By
Window cleaning companies that call us are usually one truck or two, and the owner is still on the ladder. These are the four things they say.
I drove 40 minutes for a $180 clean and the ad cost me $35 to get it.
That job lost money on the drive, not on the ad. The targeting was drawn around the yard instead of around the route, and the ad carried no minimum. A radius around the neighbourhoods you already work, a stated minimum and a stated range in the ad, fix both.
My storefront customers keep me alive and I have never got one from the internet.
You will not. Storefront routes are sold by walking in with a card and a price, and renewed the same way. The search ad reaches the homeowner. A plan that promises commercial routes from Google Ads is selling something it cannot deliver.
Half the spring calls were people who really wanted pressure washing.
Then sell it, or exclude it. Pressure washing, gutter cleaning and window cleaning share a customer and a season, and Google files all three under one Local Services Ads category. The account either runs the lines you offer or lists the rest as negatives.
I clean a house in April and never hear from them again.
The second clean is where the account pays, and it is not sold by an ad. It is booked before you leave the driveway, or by a reminder from your own system in October. The account is judged on customers who came back, not on first cleans.
Our pressure washing and window cleaning guide publishes the figures this page runs on: window cleaning leads at $20 to $50 on Local Services Ads, residential jobs at $250 to $450, and the example of a $300 window job plus $120 in screen repairs reaching $420 with no extra marketing spend. LocaliQ's 2025 home services benchmarks, cited on our carpet cleaning page, put cleaning services at the lowest cost per lead of sixteen categories at $46.99.
So the lead is not the problem. The drive is. Three cleans in one neighbourhood on one morning make a day. Three cleans in three towns make a loss, and no cost per lead report will show you the difference. The account is drawn around the route and judged on jobs completed per day and on customers who rebook.
The neighbourhoods you already work get the budget. The ones you would drive to get nothing.
Per window or per house, stated. The caller who dials has accepted the shape of the price.
Screens, tracks, gutters, pressure washing. Sold once you are there, and the reason a $300 clean becomes $420.
The first clean is the acquisition. The October rebooking is what you bought.
Most window cleaners have never seen what their customers type. Keyword Planner for the United States, read on 5 October 2026, puts window cleaning near me at 60,500 searches a month. Window cleaning service and window washing service share another 22,200, at low competition, which makes it the best value keyword in the trade.
The neighbours are bigger than the trade. Gutter cleaning near me is 40,500 a month and pressure washing near me is 110,000. A company that sells all three is advertising into roughly three times the demand of a windows-only company. Commercial window cleaning carries the highest bids on the list, up to $34 a click, on only 5,400 searches. The few property managers who search are worth a lot to whoever reaches them.
| Search (one row per synonym group) | Monthly searches, US | Competition | Top-of-page bid |
|---|---|---|---|
| window cleaning near me | 60,500 | Medium | $3.50 to $18.79 |

Google Keyword Planner, United States, English, read 5 October 2026. Keyword Planner groups synonyms, so window cleaning near me and window washers near me are one 60,500, and the rows are not added together. Storefront window cleaning at 170 a month is why routes are sold in person.
Ask a window cleaner when the phone rings and the answer is spring. The search data says something more useful. Across the last twelve months, window cleaning near me peaked at 90,500 in September and bottomed at 33,100 in December. February through June held a steady 60,500 to 74,000. The spring is a long plateau. The fall is a spike.
The same month leads every line a window cleaner sells. Window screen repair near me peaked at 27,100 in September against 5,400 in December. Gutter cleaning near me hit 60,500 in September and October. Pressure washing near me reached 165,000 in September, its highest month, and fell to 49,500 in November. An account that spends the same every month is underspending in September and overspending in December.
Monthly US searches for window cleaning near me and window washers near me, which Keyword Planner reports as one group, September 2025 to August 2026. Read 5 October 2026. Keyword Planner rounds to buckets, which is why several months show the same figure.
Google lists Window cleaning services among its US Local Services Ads categories. We read the list on 5 October 2026. Our pressure washing guide documents how gutter cleaning and pressure washing sit inside the same category, so a company with all three lines runs them through one profile, paying per lead, with the licence and insurance checks done once.
The residential searcher who typed window cleaning near me is where the category earns its keep. The specific searches, solar panel cleaning, post-construction cleanup, screen repair, run on Google Ads beside it, each with its own page.
Window cleaning near me, paid per lead. The cheapest line in the trade and the one most companies have not set up.
Solar panels, post-construction, commercial managers who search. Each with its own ad and its own price.
Storefront and commercial contracts are sold in person and renewed in person. A plan that says otherwise has not run one.
The lead and job figures are our own, published on the pressure washing guide. The benchmark is LocaliQ's, and it covers cleaning services generally rather than window cleaning alone.
| Channel | Who it reaches | What it costs you | Where it falls down |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local Services Ads, Window cleaning services | The homeowner searching window cleaning near me | Per lead; our guide puts it at $20 to $50 | Bought one house at a time it buys drives, not days |
| Google Ads, specific lines | Solar panel, post-construction, screen and track searches | Per click; LocaliQ puts cleaning services at $46.99 a lead | Without pressure washing as a line or a negative, spring fills with the wrong calls |
| Storefront and commercial routes | Shops, offices, restaurants on a monthly cycle | Shoe leather and a rate card | Not searched, not for sale by the click, and the most stable revenue in the trade |
| Lead sellers | Whoever searched window cleaning leads | Per lead, shared; the leads term is HIGH competition at $7 to $32 a click | Three cleaners quote the same house and the lowest per-window price wins |
| Your own customer list | Everyone you cleaned for last year | A reminder in spring and one in autumn | Most companies never send it, and buy the same customer again from Google |
Category status read from Google's list on 5 October 2026. Lead and job figures are Blue Grid Media's own, from the pressure washing and window cleaning guide. The $46.99 figure is LocaliQ 2025, cleaning services, as cited on our carpet cleaning page. Competition and click prices are from Keyword Planner on 5 October 2026.
Take our own figures: a $35 lead, the middle of the $20 to $50 range, and a $300 clean, the middle of $250 to $450. The lead costs about twelve percent of the job. Whether that is a good morning depends on where the three houses are, and on what is sold once the ladder is up. The lead cost is identical in every row below.
Then there is the second clean. The calculator puts a value on the customer, not the job, because the customer who books again in September cost nothing to acquire the second time. We publish no rebooking rate, because none is published for the trade. Your booking system has yours.
| The morning | Leads bought | Revenue | Drive between jobs | What happened |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Three towns | 3 at $35 | $900 | Long | An hour or more on the road. The crew did three jobs where the route had room for five. |
| One neighbourhood | 3 at $35 | $900 | Minutes | Same lead cost, same revenue, and the rest of the day left for more work. |
| One neighbourhood, add-ons sold | 3 at $35 | $1,260 | Minutes | Our guide's example: a $300 clean plus $120 in screen repairs, with no extra ad spend. |

Change any figure. Nothing is sent anywhere.
The $35 lead, $300 clean and $120 add-on are midpoints and the worked example from our own pressure washing and window cleaning guide. The booking rate, rebooking rate and number of extra cleans are placeholders, not benchmarks. Replace them with the numbers in your booking system.
The budget follows the search curve above, and the customer list does the work Google cannot. This is the calendar we run, built only on the Keyword Planner series.
| Months | What the searches do | What the account does |
|---|---|---|
| November to January | The floor. Window cleaning near me at 33,100 to 60,500, screen repair down to 5,400. | A small Local Services Ads budget stays on, because a paused profile loses its place. Storefront routes get walked. The spring reminder goes to last year's customers in late January. |
| February to June | The plateau. 60,500 to 74,000 a month for five months. Screen repair climbs to 22,200. | Full residential budget. Screen repair on its own campaign from March. Every clean ends with the fall clean booked. |
| July and August | A dip to 60,500. | Budget held. The slower weeks go to collecting reviews from spring customers, which lifts the listing before the peak. |
| September and October | The peak. Windows 90,500, gutters 60,500, pressure washing 165,000, screens 27,100. | The heaviest spend of the year across every line offered. The fall reminder goes to the whole list in the first week of September, before Google is paid for customers who were already yours. |
Search figures from Google Keyword Planner, United States, September 2025 to August 2026, read 5 October 2026.
Google's US Local Services Ads list, read 5 October 2026, carries Window cleaning services as a national category. The seven categories restricted to California and Florida are architect, drain expert, home insulation, insurance agency, interior designer, piercing studio and tattoo studio. The lead, job and add-on figures are from our own pressure washing and window cleaning guide, and the gutter cleaning category note is from our gutter page. The pressure washing page covers the company where washing is the business and windows are the add-on; this page is the reverse.
No window cleaning close rate, route density figure, rebooking rate or commercial contract value, because none is published and our dataset does not track them. No account count for window cleaning. The figures we do use are ours, and they are labelled.
A homeowner booking the twice-a-year clean, a storefront on a monthly route and a gutter clean in October are three different sales at three different prices. Each line below gets its own campaign, and the ones that cannot be bought with a click say so.
The core search, twice a year. Priced by the window or the house, and the line Local Services Ads carries.
Sold in person, renewed monthly, and rarely searched. A small campaign for the owner who does search, and the rest is the route.
Searched in autumn, booked with the windows. Our pressure washing guide documents it inside the same Local Services Ads category.
The spring add-on, searched by name, and the reason a window cleaning truck is busy in April.
Not searched on its own. Sold at the door, and our guide's example of a $300 clean becoming $420.
Searched specifically where panels are common. A high-ticket line with almost no local bidders.
Searched by builders and remodelers after a job. Priced by the project, and worth its own page.
Commercial, bid, and insured differently. No campaign on this page reaches it, and the page says so.
Storefront contracts are sold in person. An agency that has not said so has not worked with a window cleaner.
The drive costs more than the click. Ask whether the targeting follows the route or the map.
A window cleaning company lives on the customer who rebooks. If the report cannot say how many did, it is measuring the wrong thing.
Google lists Window cleaning services among its US Local Services Ads categories, and it is not one of the seven restricted to California and Florida, which are architect, drain expert, home insulation, insurance agency, interior designer, piercing studio and tattoo studio. Local Services Ads charge per lead rather than per click, sit above the map pack, and passing the checks carries the Google Verified badge. Read from Google's own category list on 5 October 2026.
These are the terms window cleaning owners use when they look for marketing help, from Google Keyword Planner for the United States. Most of it is one group of advertising searches, and the leads term is the only one at high competition, which is lead sellers bidding for you.

Yes. Google lists Window cleaning services among its US Local Services Ads categories, and it is not one of the seven restricted to California and Florida, which are architect, drain expert, home insulation, insurance agency, interior designer, piercing studio and tattoo studio.

LocaliQ's 2025 benchmark puts cleaning services generally at $46.99 a lead, the lowest of sixteen home service categories. The lead is rarely the problem. The drive to the job is.
No. Routes are sold in person and renewed in person, and almost nobody searches for a commercial window cleaner. A small campaign can reach the property manager who does search. The rest is shoe leather, and a plan should say so.
If you offer them, yes, as their own lines. They share a customer and a season with windows and sit in the same Local Services Ads category. If you do not offer them, they go on the negative list, or spring fills with the wrong calls.
Yes, with no contract. The route-first structure is built for one truck, because every job the account buys has to sit on a route one crew can run in a morning.
September. Keyword Planner for the United States, read on 5 October 2026, shows window cleaning near me at 90,500 searches in September 2025, its highest month, against a low of 33,100 in December. February through June ran at 60,500 to 74,000. Gutter cleaning, pressure washing and screen repair searches all peaked in September too, so the fall is the month to spend most.

We do not sell window cleaning leads and we do not resell them. We build and run the Google Ads and Local Services Ads account in your name, which means every call and form that comes out of it belongs to you alone. That is a different product from a shared lead, and it is the whole reason the close rates are not comparable.
We provide exclusive window cleaning leads in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta and Phoenix, and in roughly 50 United States metros in total. Campaigns are managed remotely, so the market is set by where your crews work rather than where we sit.
Not on the list does not mean not covered. We run window cleaning accounts nationwide across the United States, including smaller and rural markets where the auction is usually cheaper than any metro above.
A homeowner wants to know what a house costs, whether you do the inside, and when you can come. A page with a per-house range, the add-ons, your service area and online booking turns that search into a route stop.
Most contractor searches happen on a phone, so the page is built to load fast there. Faster pages convert more of the clicks you have already paid for.
Every call and form is connected to tracking from day one, so you can see which ads and which pages actually produce booked work rather than just traffic.
On-page SEO and local schema markup so the site earns map and organic visibility over time instead of only working while the ads are switched on.
Bring your service area, your average residential ticket and how many of last year's customers booked again. Twenty minutes gives you whether Local Services Ads should carry the residential line, which searches to exclude, and what a booked clean should cost on your numbers. No charge.
