Professional Skylight Cleaning in Los Angeles

More light. Less buildup.

Skylights are the hardest glass on the property to reach and the easiest to forget — baked under the LA sun and layered with dust, ash, sap and droppings. We clean the exterior of every dome and pane, safely, where access allows.

Overhead glass

The pane nobody ever looks at.

A skylight was installed to bring daylight into a room. Left alone it does the opposite — dust bakes flat, ash settles, minerals dry on the surface, and the glass slowly reads as a dull ceiling panel rather than an opening to the sky.

Because they sit out of sight, skylights are usually years behind the rest of the property. Clearing them is one of the few cleaning jobs where the difference shows in the room below, not just on the glass.

  • Exterior dome or pane cleaned by hand, edge to edge
  • Bird droppings, sap and wildfire ash pre-treated before washing
  • Mineral spotting from rain runoff and sprinklers addressed
  • Frames, flashing and surrounding roof surface left clean
  • Seals visually checked and anything we notice reported to you
  • Purified water finish so drying leaves no new spotting
  • Why skylights go dull

    Everything in the air lands here.

    Horizontal glass has nowhere to shed. Rain does not rinse it clean — it dries and leaves the layer behind.

    The Golden View process

    Access first, then glass.

    Roof work is decided before it is started. We assess the surface, protect it, and only then clean.

    Assess the access

    We look at roof pitch, surface type and skylight placement first, and tell you honestly what can be reached safely.

    Protect the roof

    Anchors and walk-pads go down before any work starts so tile, shingle and flat roofing are not marked.

    Pre-treat and wash

    Droppings, sap and mineral spots get dwell time, then the dome or pane is hand-washed and rinsed pure.

    Frame, seal and check

    Frames and flashing are wiped, seals are inspected, and we confirm each unit is clear before packing up.

    What we will and will not do

    Straight answers about roofs.

    Every property is different, and no cleaning company can promise access to every skylight on every roof. We would rather look at yours, tell you plainly what we can reach, and clean that properly than take on something we should not be standing on.

  • We clean the exterior of skylights only — interior skylight glass is not part of this service
  • Access is assessed before we quote, and we decline anything that is not safe to reach
  • Steep tile, brittle or aging roofing may limit what we can service on your property
  • Deep etching or scratched acrylic domes will not polish out, and we say so up front
  • Failing seals, cracked flashing or ponding water are reported, not covered over
  • Insured for roof work under our $1M/$2M policy
  • Booked with window cleaning

    Finish the glass overhead too.

    Most skylights are cleaned during a regular window cleaning visit — accessible exterior units are typically included, and roof-access units carry a small added fee. It is the simplest way to have every pane on the property reading the same.

They cleaned all of our interior and exterior windows, skylights, glass railings, and even our solar panels, and everything came out spotless, streak-free, and crystal clear.”
