Abracadabra Window Wizard

Michael was referred to me by my landlord. I live in a flat above the garage and needless to say I do not have a ladder high enough or the patience to clean my own windows — 13 in all. Michael arrived promptly, did a review and got to work. When I look out my windows it looks as though there is no glass there. I am so happy I called him and you will be too!

Michael and Cristobal did a great job on my windows right before my Superbowl party. They were fast, professional and reasonably priced.

*This is a review of Abracadabra’s business practices only* I can’t comment on the quality of their work, because they never showed up.
Michael of Abracadabra called me 10 minutes before he was supposed to show up at my house and told me he wouldn’t be coming due to rain. Rain? It was 70 degrees out. A beautiful October Indian Summer day in San Francisco.
It did rain, 7 days later.
Whatever the real reason Michael didn’t show up had nothing to do with the weather. I’m guessing it had more to do with watching the Giants.
This was a big job ($ 1,000) and what really irritated me was that I took the day off from work to oversee the the project.
I wish I had read Abracadabra’s spotty Unilocal reviews first!!!

EXPENSIVE AND NOT GREAT WORK–
left dirty finger prints around the window frames
did not clean around the window frames outside
It was very expensive and they took a long time for the work that was produced
will not use again

I found this business on Unilocal,so I think it’s my obligation to other people looking for window cleaners to write this review. If I could give 0 stars, I would. So incredibly DISAPPOINTED and UPSET. We have used this company in the past (Michael came by himself to do the work and we were pleased and hired him back), but this time Michael sent a team over to clean the windows in my newly, down to the studs, remodeled home. Not only did his crew do a mediocre job on the windows (left smudges, streaks, stickers on numerous windows — obviously no one took the time to go around and check the windows before leaving), but more importantly, their CARELESSNESS and DISREGARD for our property DAMAGED OUR HOME (damaged our window treatment plus cracked the plaster on multiple window sills and left the broken paint chip pieces on the sills or on the floor below!!!) We immediately called the owner Michael, he came later that evening to take a look, agreed that his guys were careless and damaged our property, but then had the utter audacity to shift the blame onto us, repeat clients, saying that it was our fault. Who does this!!! My husband said, «All you have to do is apologize and say you’re sorry!» but could Michael step up and do this? Nope! Instead he ARGUED and repeatedly BLAMED US and the work that we had done on our brand new home. So unbelievably rude, UNPROFESSIONAL and APPALLING for a business owner to behave this way towards his repeat clients. Michael has WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE we have experienced. Now we have to spend $$$$ to have our painter return to replaster and paint the damages sills and hire our window shade intstaller to repair and reinstall the damaged shade. And to top it off, we don’t even have clean windows as a consolation prize.

I’m rating this neutral because I did not actually experience the service. I tried to schedule for my studio apartment but was told Michael has a 10-​window minimum. I think it’s important for Unilocalers to know this.

I had Michael do my yearly window cleaning — this time exterior and interior. He did a great job again. I highly recommend Abracadabra’s window cleaning!

Michael did a great job on the windows in my flat in Noe Valley, which were really filthy due to some recent construction work. I would hire him again.

Michael and his team just cleaned our house windows in preparation for an open house. We knew our windows needed cleaning, but didn’t realize how much until they started working…
What a difference! They are super efficient and detailed. I saw Michael going around the house one more time just to check his work before leaving.
Thank you

Michael did a fantastic cleaning job on our windows which were thoroughly messed up by the SF summer time fog. He was sensitive to our schedule and worked very fast and efficiently. I can’t imagine how anyone could do any better. I will be calling Abracadabra on a regular basis. When the fog clears we can see forever. Many thanks to a true professional.

Michael and his crew did an awesome job on our 3^rd floor condo. We have some high and hard to reach windows on the outside, which they handled like pros. We’ll definitely be hiring them again.

I just had my windows cleaned by Abracadabra. As the name implies, the team works magic. I have multiple, very high floor to ceiling windows, sliding glass doors, and skylights. Michael Wolf is the owner. He and his team showed up on time and did a fantastic job. They cleaned my windows inside and out as well as my screens. When they left the premises, other than windows that were so clean they looked like they had no glass in them, my unit looked exactly as it did when they arrived. I highly recommend this window cleaning service.

Working with Michael and his team has been wonderful. He promptly responded to my request for an estimate and was able to meet and give me the estimate for cleaning the windows of four units promptly. He confirmed his arrival the night before — arrived on time with all his equipment and crew and breezed through the place. Barking dogs don’t phase him, either. He and his crew are fast, efficient, neat and know how to leave a window looking fantastic. He also fixed a screen door. I highly recommend Abracadabra and Michael Wolf.

Michael and his crew did a fantastic job cleaning ALL of my windows — even those that a previous window washer had said were impossible to clean! They willingly moved heavy pieces of furniture, including a piano, to get to the windows and were careful and meticulous. They even made sure the floors were protected. Don’t bother with any other window washers. Just call Abracadabra! I highly recommended them.

Michael and his team are the best. Super responsive, very fairly priced, quality work, and sensitive to my interiors. I have been using Abracadabra to clean my multi level home for several years and they are simply fantastic.

Michael Wolf, the window wizard himself, has been cleaning my windows for around 5 years. I have no idea why I haven’t written a review until now. He came today and my family is now at risk of walking into glass doors and windows they are so clean. I can’t stop looking at how gorgeous everything looks. Really. Besides being an excellent window guy, Michael is nice to be around. I enjoy his company and chatting with him about our kids and such. He is prompt, reasonably priced, and flexible. I have him come and clean my windows twice a year and I think you should too.
