Meet the owner behind the shine
Silas Birnie runs Clear Panes in Seattle with a ladder, a squeegee, and standards. No subcontractors, just work he checks himself.
Who actually shows up to clean your windows?
One owner, one standard, and no crew you didn't hire. That's the whole Clear Panes setup, built around care for your home.
Silas Birnie
OWNER & OPERATORSilas cleans every pane himself, both sides, with tracks, sills, and screens handled the same way. No subcontractors, no shortcuts.
Aidan Scott
DETAIL & FINISH SUPPORTAidan handles prep and final checks so every visit ends with spotless glass and a clean workspace. Part of the same careful standard.
Quality you can hold accountable
Every window gets both sides cleaned, tracks wiped, sills wiped, and screens handled. That's the standard, and it's checked before I leave.
01
Both sides, always
No skipping the outside because it's hard. Every pane gets cleaned on both sides, every visit.
02
Tracks and sills included
The places dust builds up get wiped down, not just the glass. That's where the detail shows.
03
Screens handled with care
Screens are cleaned and handled so they don't bend or tear. They go back the way they came.
04
No subcontractors
One owner on site, doing the work and checking it. No strangers, no hand-offs, no excuses.
05
Meticulous by nature
It's not a rush job. Every streak gets caught and fixed before the ladder comes down.
06
Accountable to you
One person to call with feedback, and that same person fixes it. Simple, direct, and honest.
The Clear Panes standard
Every job is done by Silas, not a subcontractor. That means one set of eyes on every pane, track, sill, and screen from Capitol Hill to West Seattle.

Silas cleaned every window inside and out, plus the tracks and screens. The glass looks brand new and he left the sills spotless.

First time I've seen a window cleaner do both sides of every pane without being asked. You can tell he actually cares about the details.
