True North Shine Co. keeps Ottawa homes and buildings looking sharp and getting in and out safely — professional window cleaning when the sun is out, and reliable snow removal when it isn't.
What we do
No upsells, no rushed jobs. Tell us about your property and we'll quote exactly what it needs — nothing more.
Spring · Summer · Fall
Streak-free windows inside and out for houses, townhomes, storefronts and multi-unit buildings. Clean glass changes how a whole property feels — brighter rooms, better curb appeal, happier tenants and customers.
Winter
Ottawa winters don't wait, and neither do we. Seasonal contracts for homeowners, housing co-ops, condos, churches and multi-residential properties — so driveways, walkways and entrances are clear when people need them.
Who we serve
From a single family home to a whole housing co-op, the standard is the same: show up, do it right, leave it shining — or clear.
Detached homes, semis, townhomes and condos across Ottawa. Brighter windows in summer, a driveway you can actually use in winter.
Seasonal snow contracts and building window cleaning for multi-residential properties, with one point of contact for the whole property.
Welcoming entrances year-round: clean glass for your storefront or place of worship, and clear, safe walkways all winter.
How it works
Use the quote builder below or email us — address, service, and anything we should know.
We confirm the details, arrange a look at the property if needed, and send a clear price. No obligation.
One-time visit, recurring window cleans, or a full-season snow contract — whatever fits.
Reliable, careful work, done by a local veteran-owned crew that treats your property like its own.
About us
True North Shine Co. was started in Ottawa by Archiebold “Archie” Rakhudu, a Canadian Armed Forces veteran, together with his wife Tapiwa. The values are the ones service teaches: show up on time, do the job to standard, and leave things better than you found them.
We started with window cleaning — including a regular client we've looked after for years — and added snow removal because Ottawa asked for it. Same crew, same standard, twelve months a year.
When you book with us, you're supporting a local family business — and getting a crew that answers its own emails and stands behind its work.

Questions
Quotes are free and there's no obligation. Tell us the service, the property address and a few details — for larger or multi-unit properties we may arrange a quick look at the site before pricing, so the number you get is the number you pay for the work described.
As early as you can. Seasonal contracts are arranged before winter and spots fill up — once a route is full, we can only offer per-visit clearing when capacity allows. If you're a co-op, condo or church planning for the season, reach out in the fall.
Yes — interior and exterior window cleaning are both available. Let us know in your request which you'd like, and anything about access (storeys, screens, hard-to-reach glass).
Yes. We quote multi-residential properties, housing co-ops, condos, churches and community buildings, and we're used to working through a single contact for a whole property.
We're based in Sandy Hill and serve neighbourhoods across Ottawa, from downtown and the Glebe to Kanata, Barrhaven and Orléans. If your area isn't listed, ask — reliable travel matters more to us than a hard boundary.
