Awnings under the unique Old Town arcades arcades that must be cleaned before seasonal opening, shutters in the UNESCO Old Town, Venetian blinds in federal buildings, roller shutters on modern MFH. Four types, one specialist. The Old Town arcades awnings of Bern are found nowhere else in Switzerland.
“No bot. No hold queue.”
Shutter & blind cleaning in Biel starts with what is unique to the city. The Old Town arcades arcades: 6 km of covered walkways that line the Old Town streets. Every shop and restaurant under the Old Town arcades has awnings that accumulate a full winter's worth of grime, moisture and arcade dust. They must be cleaned before the seasonal opening — or the first warm day reveals months of neglect to every passerby.
In the federal administration buildingsand modern MFH districts: motorised Venetian blinds, aluminium slats, roller shutters. Systematic slat-by-slat cleaning with mechanism check. Bern water has hardness grade 1–2 — very soft, but mineral deposits still appear on outdoor slats over time.
We clean all four types and always include a mechanism check. For Old Town shutters: restrained, UNESCO compliant, no solvents on historic fabric.
“The Old Town arcades are unique to Bern. So is the cleaning challenge they create.”— Muharem Berisha

Awnings first, windows after — that way no Old Town arcades arcade dust and awning residue lands on freshly cleaned shopfront glass. In Bern this matters more than anywhere: the 6 km of Old Town arcades create a unique dust and moisture environment.
Combo price cheaper than two separate bookings. A single combined visit makes much more sense than two — particularly for Old Town arcades shopfront operators.
