Factors that decide facade cleaning cost:
The architectural wonders of modern society may be seen wherever you look in Gurgaon. The skyline is dotted with high-rise aluminium composite panels (ACPs), glass façades, and large corporate headquarters. However, the city has also been plagued by dust and pollution due to the rapid development of an urban area, creating a seasonal mess.
Therefore, for all facilities (AF) managers and property managers, the challenge is to maintain the first-class appearance of buildings and keep tenants happy. The biggest concern obviously remains:
“HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?”
At AKS Facilities, we are highly transparent regarding our services and pricing. Cleaning a façade is not a one-solution model for every building. Each clean involves high risk, requires specialised equipment, and may involve specialised facade cleaning chemicals.
There are a number of different factors involved in determining the cost of façade cleaning in Gurgaon:
Height is one of the most significant factors that influences the cost of cleaning your building. Your cleaning costs will increase as the height of your building increases. Due to the increased height, costs rise because of the higher risk involved and the need for specialised access equipment.
Different types of facade materials require different cleaning products and practices to ensure a 100% appropriate clean.
Most frequently seen in Cyber City in Gurgaon, glass facades are among the easiest to maintain due to their uniform appearance and regular cleaning regimens.
To prevent scratching and dulling of the finish, cleaning products for ACP panels must be non-abrasive and pH-neutral.
Natural stone surfaces are porous. Special pressure washing and/or chemical treatments are required to remove pollutants embedded into the stone without damaging the surface texture.
Luxury-style facades made from metallic materials often have specialised coatings or surface treatments applied after cleaning, increasing the overall cleaning cost.
It is easy and quick to clean a flat glass wall; however, many buildings in Gurgaon feature unique architectural designs.
Overhanging elements, recessed window areas, and curved structures affect vertical access for cleaning teams.
Nearby trees, signage, permanent lighting fixtures, and other obstructions can interfere with rigging, making cradle or rope access setup more complex.
The availability of secure anchoring points for safety harnesses impacts setup time. If anchor points must be installed or evaluated, initial costs will increase.
When was the last cleaning?
Buildings cleaned every 3–6 months usually have only loose dirt and rain spots, which speeds up the cleaning process.
Buildings neglected for several years may have hard water stains, carbon deposits from heavy traffic, or construction debris. Deep cleaning requires heavy-duty chemicals, additional manpower, and higher costs.
Property managers who opt for Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC) with AKS Facilities benefit from significantly better pricing.
More expensive due to the intensity of labour and chemical treatments involved.
Lower cost per visit as the building remains cleaner and the cleaning team is familiar with site-specific challenges.
In Gurgaon, safety is non-negotiable. High-rise facade cleaning involves considerable risk. Professional service providers such as AKS Facilities include the following in their pricing:
Safety Equipment: High-quality harnesses, ropes, and fall-protection systems
Training & Certification: Technicians trained in working at height and emergency rescue procedures
Insurance: Comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage (ESI/PF)

AKS Facilities is committed to delivering local expertise combined with global environmental standards. We understand Gurgaon’s unique challenges, including pre-monsoon dry winds and winter smog.
We use the safest methods and materials, eco-friendly products, and advanced water-fed pole systems to ensure your building remains clean, protected, and visually appealing.
Due to high dust, pollution, and construction activity in Gurgaon, we recommend professional facade cleaning at least once every six months. Buildings located near high-traffic areas such as NH-48, Golf Course Road, or industrial zones should consider quarterly facade cleaning to maintain appearance and prevent surface damage.
No. Rainwater in urban areas like Gurgaon contains pollutants, dust particles, and dissolved minerals. When rainwater dries on glass surfaces, it leaves behind mud stains, mineral streaks, and water spots instead of cleaning the windows.
Yes. We offer rope access (abseiling) facade cleaning, which is a faster, cost-effective, and less intrusive method. It is especially suitable for high-rise buildings and hard-to-reach facade areas where cradle installation is not practical.
Absolutely. AKS Facilities uses biodegradable, eco-friendly, and pH-neutral cleaning agents that are safe for glass, ACP panels, sealants, stone surfaces, and facade coatings. No harsh acids or corrosive chemicals are used.
Yes. Every building has unique height, access, and safety requirements. We provide free site inspections across Gurgaon to evaluate the facade condition and recommend the most suitable cleaning method with accurate cost estimation.
