Professional Window Cleaning Squeegees and Washers
A window cleaning squeegee is a hand tool that removes water, dirt and cleaning solution from glass in a single stroke, leaving a streak-free finish. It has a handle and a channel holding a rubber blade; drawing the blade across wet glass clears the water ahead of it. Below are the professional squeegees and washers we stock in South Africa, followed by a quick guide to choosing the right size.
Please note that the 35cm squeegees and 35cm washer are included in our window cleaning kits, so if you’re looking for a more complete solution then go to our kits page Here.
What Is a Window Cleaning Squeegee?
A window cleaning squeegee is a tool used to remove water, dirt and debris from windows. It consists of a handle with a rubber blade attached; the blade is drawn across the glass, lifting water and grime as it goes. Squeegees come in a range of sizes and blade types to suit different windows — the most common is the T-bar squeegee, whose T-shaped handle makes it easy to grip and control.
Whether you are cleaning home windows or the glass of a high-rise building, the right squeegee makes the job faster and easier. At Window Washing we supply window cleaning squeegees in three main sizes — 45cm, 35cm, and custom sizes under 35cm. The washer (applicator) and squeegee are interchangeable: both fit onto a telescopic pole for high glass, or can be used by hand.
Squeegee Sizes and Rubber Maintenance
Choose a 45cm squeegee for large panes and shopfronts to cover more glass per stroke, and a 35cm squeegee for standard home and office windows or tighter frames. Keep spare squeegee rubbers on hand — the blade is the wear part, and a fresh, nick-free rubber is what gives a streak-free finish.
