Assumptions
  • Glazing area is a self-reported approximation; a site measure or as-built drawing review confirms the exact quantity.
  • Pricing assumes safe, code-compliant ground and roof access is available on the date of service.
  • Water and power on-site are assumed to be available at no cost to the contractor.
  • Recurring frequencies assume a standing service agreement; ad-hoc scheduling may affect availability and pricing.
  • Snow removal and salting are modelled per response event; seasonal contracts are priced separately after a site walkthrough.
  • Roof anchor certification (if suspended access is required) is assumed current; recertification is quoted separately if needed.
Excluded from this range
  • Interior glass cleaning
  • Glass restoration, scratch removal, or mineral-deposit remediation
  • Permits, traffic control, or scaffolding/hoarding rental
  • Repairs to caulking, sealant, cladding, or glazing systems
  • Sales tax (GST/PST as applicable)

How To Use This

For the budget draft, not the contract.

This estimator exists because budget season arrives before quotes do. It gives you a defensible range — with the assumptions and exclusions spelled out — to put in a draft operating budget or a depreciation report line, months before a vendor is selected.

Every multiplier in the model is disclosed on this page, and the same figures appear in the downloadable PDF, so the range can be explained to a council or a procurement desk without a black box.

Want the range narrowed into a real number? Send the building address to commercial@spiffybluelabel.com and we will schedule a site visit.
