Facade Cleaning Berlin - Gentle Methods, No Substrate Damage
Professional facade cleaning (Fassadenreinigung) to professional standards. Immo-Clean GmbH applies DIN EN 13549-aligned methods for natural stone, clinker, render, and glass facades. Tariff-bound permanent staff with pressure-adjusted cleaning technology - calculation based on facade area & contamination class.
Facade Cleaning: Substrate-safe methods at height
Fixed teams clean plaster, clinker, stone, metal, and glass facades in all 12 Berlin districts. Pressure-adjusted methods protect every substrate, with documented checks at every stage.

Because a fifth-floor render face and a ground-level metal cladding are different operations, facade work is quoted per face and access route - minimum order values and area tiers are on the Pricing page, the binding quote follows the free survey with sample-area test.
Facade Cleaning: Substrate-safe methods for every material
The Facade Cleaning Berlin service from Immo-Clean GmbH covers every exterior surface of a property - from natural stone and clinker to render, metal cladding, and glass. Fixed cleaning teams, pressure-adjusted cleaning technology, and an on-site site manager give property managers and building owners consistently verifiable results.
Substrate-safe for every material
We clean rendered, painted, stone, and many panel systems after suitability checks. Each material requires a matched approach - high pressure is not always the right choice, and test areas confirm the expected result before full treatment.
Recurring maintenance and portfolio care
We build annual or seasonal maintenance plans for long-term upkeep - many clients prefer a fixed schedule over ad-hoc calls, and maintenance cleaning in Berlin forms part of long-term framework agreements. Our building cleaning in Berlin, glass cleaning in Berlin, and stairwell cleaning in Berlin complement the facade cleaning portfolio.
Work on occupied buildings and coordination
We coordinate timing, access, and safety measures to minimise disruption - for commercial facades we often work outside business hours or in zones. Facade projects currently run from courtyard clinker in Berlin-Mitte and Altbau render in Charlottenburg to post-war slabs in Pankow, industrial cladding in Spandau, and villa stone in Köpenick - the full footprint is on the Berlin service areas page.
Insured and transparent if damage occurs
We are fully liability insured. If damage occurs despite our care, we handle it directly and transparently - no subcontractor blame games, but a named contact who resolves the case with the owner or property manager.
Facade Cleaning in All Berlin Districts & Brandenburg
Every facade assignment starts with the substrate, not the machine: render, clinker, natural stone, metal, and glass each define their own pressure ceiling, chemistry, and access route - tested on a sample area before the full face is touched, and checked again after cleaning. We work this way across Berlin-Mitte, Charlottenburg, Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg, Spandau, Köpenick, Pankow, Neukölln, Wilmersdorf, Schöneberg, Tempelhof, and Steglitz - all districts on the Berlin service areas page.
Berlin-Mitte & Eastern Districts
In Berlin-Mitte we serve listed and high-visibility facades, in Friedrichshain the curtain-wall glazing of towers, in Lichtenberg the warehouse facades at height, and in Hellersdorf and Marzahn the slab-building and estate facades.
Kreuzberg, Neukölln & Northern Districts
Facade cleaning in Kreuzberg is planned around period clinker and courtyard buildings, while facade cleaning in Neukölln is coordinated around dense quarters with varied facade types. Pankow and Reinickendorf add slab-building estates, where large faces are cleaned section by section from suspended platforms.
Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf & City West
In City West we serve Charlottenburg around Kurfürstendamm, Wilmersdorf around Olivaer Platz, and Schöneberg in the Bavarian Quarter with its stucco facades.
South, West & Brandenburg
In southern Berlin we cover Tempelhof, Steglitz, Zehlendorf, Lichterfelde, and Treptow. Spandau contributes warehouse and metal facades with traffic film, Köpenick and Adlershof campus glass and stone faces. Facade frameworks also run in Potsdam and across Brandenburg.

Cleaners and Methods for Facade Substrates
Choosing the right method protects plaster, clinker, stone, metal, and glass. Before use, we check the surface, the soil, and material compatibility.
Natural Stone
Limestone, sandstone, and granite each receive their own care plan. Slip resistance and preservation of value come first. Test areas prevent etching and discolouration.
Clinker & Brick
Clinker and brick facades are cleaned with low-pressure methods to preserve the brick patina and mortar joints. Specialist cleaners are matched to the soil type.
Render & Plaster
Rendered and painted surfaces are cleaned with gentle, material-aware methods. Pressure is adjusted to avoid surface damage.
Glass & Metal
Curtain-wall glazing is cleaned with osmosis water for streak-free results. Aluminium and metal cladding are treated substrate-safely to avoid scratching or dulling.
Facade Cleaning in Eight Clear Steps
From the substrate test to the after-check from the ground, every facade project follows the same eight documented stages.
- Initial survey: we record facade area, substrates, soiling level, access conditions, and special requirements.
- Every zone and substrate is recorded with its method, pressure, product, and defined result in a clear written specification.
- The site manager divides the facade into substrate-based zones and plans routes, equipment stations, and access setup.
- A fixed team is briefed on substrates, safety requirements, access methods, and house rules before deployment.
- Machines, access equipment, cloths, and cleaning products are matched to the substrates and made ready for use with safety data sheets.
- Cleaning follows the agreed schedule, with each zone documented including substrate, product used, and any unusual findings.
- Where agreed, a protective coating is applied to extend the time between cleans and slow re-soiling.
- The after-check one to two weeks later shows whether the substrate still reads clean - streaks, residues, or shadowing are documented and corrected before the file closes.
Case Study: Office Building near Alexanderplatz
A representative example of how we clean and protect a large commercial facade in Berlin. The concrete figures vary depending on the property.
Starting situation: An office building near Alexanderplatz with a glass-and-panel facade. Traffic film had built up over three years. The ground-floor entrance showed visible streaking and algae growth in shaded corners. Tenants complained about the neglected appearance affecting client visits.
Assessment and plan: We re-mapped the facade by substrate: glass sections, aluminium panels, aluminium frames, and stone surrounds at ground level. We selected a two-phase approach - gentle low-pressure pre-clean, followed by substrate-specific final treatment per zone. Graffiti at the entrance was added to the scope using specialist removal techniques.
Implementation with a fixed team: A coordinated team took over the facade with rope access and a mobile platform. Quality checks were documented after each zone, and a site manager was the direct contact for the building owner. A protective coating was applied to the ground-floor stone surrounds.
What changed for the property
- 1,800 m² facade cleaned without damage reports
- Glass, panels, and frames each treated substrate-safely
- Graffiti removed without damaging aluminium coating
- Tenant satisfaction score improved from 2.8 to 4.5/5
- Recurring annual maintenance contract signed

What Determines the Price? A Worked Example
What facade cleaning costs is driven by the height, the access route (lift, scaffold, or rope), and the substrate's tolerance - set as a binding fixed price after the free survey including the sample-area test.
What factors into the quote
- Area and substrate - a connected glass facade takes less effort than mixed-material facades with separate stone, render, and panel zones
- Contamination class - traffic film, biological growth, graffiti, or atmospheric soiling each require different methods, pressure, and contact time
- Access equipment - rope access, mobile platforms, and scaffolding each have different implications, matched to height, substrate, and occupancy
- Billing model - one-off facade cleans are quoted per face and access route; annual maintenance frameworks fix the price per cycle with priority windows
Fixed price after the survey
Facade cleaning is quoted per face and result - for example "north face low-pressure cleaned, joints rinsed, sample area photographed before and after" - because three variables carry the cost: the building height (each metre above platform reach moves the job from lift to rope access), the access situation (scaffold, suspended platform, or pavement permits and safety zones), and the substrate (sensitive render and natural stone take gentler, slower methods than metal or glass). Materials, quality control, and site management sit inside the fixed price, which is binding after the free site survey. Pricing overview.
