Kerava's train connection to Helsinki is popular, but railway proximity brings its own challenges for windows: brake dust and metal particles collect on glass surfaces. Cleava uses specialist products to bring windows clear without surface damage. 2-3 times a year recommended near the railway.
Cleava's window cleaning in Kerava is designed for the specific needs of railway-adjacent apartments. We wash windows inside and out, clean frames and trims, and use specialist products for brake dust and metal particle removal. Those living in immediate railway proximity especially benefit from 2-3 washes a year.
WINDOW CLEANING — FROM
A typical Kerava two-room apartment (5-10 windows): 1-2 hours. After the household tax deduction the effective hourly rate is about €25.35. VAT included.
💡 Household tax deduction: You can deduct 40% of the labour cost on your taxes — up to €2,100 per person per year.
Kerava is a city of about 37,000 whose appeal rests on the excellent train connection to Helsinki: a 20-minute trip to the main station makes it a popular commuting destination. The railway runs through the city and housing is dense on both sides of the track. Many apartments in Kerava centre and Ahjo have a direct view of the railway.
This is useful as a living environment but also brings challenges for window maintenance. Train braking causes fine-grained brake dust and metal particles that collect on windows, sills and balcony surfaces. Regular window cleaner doesn't remove these effectively. Cleava uses specialist products and methods that bring windows clear without surface damage — for those living near the railway we recommend 2-3 thorough washes per year.
We use professional window cleaning equipment and products — streak-free windows.
Specialist products for removing brake dust and metal particles — safely without damaging surfaces.

It's worth combining window cleaning with home cleaning — you get both on the same visit.
In immediate railway proximity (under 100 metres from the track) windows get dirty significantly faster than usual. We recommend Kerava residents wash windows 3 times a year: spring thorough wash (April-May), mid-summer compact wash (June-July) and autumn wash (September-October). If the apartment is further from the track or in a different area (e.g. Ylikerava), 2 times a year suffices.
Second tip: during washing you'll notice that metal particles also collect on sills and balcony railings. This is visually minor but can damage surfaces if left long-term. Cleava's standard service also includes thorough cleaning of frames and sills. Regular washing is often the deciding factor for window longevity.
