Detail Work

Frames, Sills And Tracks

The Part Most Window Cleaners Skip

Aluminium frames go chalky, sills collect mould and dead insects, and tracks fill with grit until the door will not slide. We clean all three properly, by hand, as part of a detail clean.

Ask for it as an add on or as a standalone job.

Why It Matters

Clean Glass Above A Filthy Sill Still Looks Dirty

Frames and tracks are where the dirt actually lives. Getting them right is slow work, so it is priced separately from a standard glass clean.

Aluminium window frames being cleaned

Frames And Sills

Aluminium and powder coated joinery washed down to remove chalking, salt residue and mould. Timber joinery cleaned gently so the paint or stain is not stripped back.

  • Chalking and salt residue removed
  • Mould treated on sills and reveals
  • Timber joinery cleaned without stripping
  • Rubber seals wiped, not scrubbed
Sliding door track cleaning

Sliding Door And Window Tracks

Tracks are vacuumed out, scrubbed, flushed and dried. Rollers are checked while we are in there, so if a door is dragging you will know whether it is grit or a worn wheel.

  • Vacuumed, scrubbed and flushed
  • Drain holes cleared
  • Roller condition checked
  • Dried out before we leave

The Detail

What A Detail Clean Includes

A detail clean covers glass, frames, sills, reveals and tracks in one visit. It takes roughly twice as long as a glass only clean, which is why it is usually done once or twice a year with standard cleans in between.

Salt air on the North Shore, around the eastern bays and along the Whangaparāoa coast is hard on aluminium. Left long enough, chalking becomes permanent oxidisation that no amount of washing will lift, so it is worth catching early.

If joinery is already oxidised we will tell you honestly what can and cannot be improved before we quote.

Common Questions

Straight Answers

Is frame and track cleaning included in a window clean?
A standard clean is the glass. Frames, sills and tracks are detailed, slower work and are priced separately, either as an add on or as a full detail clean once or twice a year.
My sliding door is hard to open. Will cleaning the track fix it?
Often, yes. Tracks fill with grit and the rollers grind through it. We vacuum, scrub, flush and dry the track and check the rollers while we are there, so you will know if it is dirt or a worn wheel.
Can chalky aluminium frames be restored?
Light chalking washes off. Heavy oxidisation is permanent and can only be improved, not reversed. We will tell you honestly which one you have before quoting.
