About Window Genie

For more than 25 years, Window Genie has been the sole leader in the national, residentially focused window cleaning market. Built on a powerful culture and a proven, professional system, Window Genie does more than clean windows – we build winning businesses.

Window cleaning is an often-overlooked niche in the $51-billion-a-year cleaning industry. Cleaning is one of the highest-rated segments in the franchise industry, and cleaning-related franchises are highly sought after because they are low-investment, have high customer demand, do well in all types of economic conditions and have a solid track record of success.

Window cleaning, window tinting, gutter cleaning, and pressure washing offer a significant advantage over other types of cleaning businesses, since they require fewer employees. Window cleaning doesn’t require special skills or experience — anyone with great people skills, a strong work ethic and a desire to succeed has the opportunity to build a successful and profitable business with a Window Genie franchise.

THE MAGIC IS IN THE PEOPLE

Still led by founder Rik Nonelle, Window Genie’s success lies in a deliberate decision to put culture first – a culture of inclusiveness and, most of all, a culture of integrity. Window Genie franchise owners are a tight-knit group of friends and teammates who work hard, play harder, and support each other at every turn.
