What does Window Cleaning Include?

How to Compare Professional Window Cleaning Companies

Most people, whether homeowners or business owners, know the importance of calling several providers to get quotes on any type of service. This allows you to compare prices and also to find out exactly what you are getting in return for the price. You should compare at least three companies and ask the pertinent questions to get the best deal for a quality job. Especially when it comes to either residential window cleaning or commercial window cleaning you want to know you’re working with the best.

Ask if the window cleaning company has insurance.

This is important because if a window cleaner is hurt on your property, it can lead to a lengthy and expensive court battle for medical costs, loss of work, and court costs. Your service provider should be fully insured and you should also get this in writing on your quote as well.

Ask if the window cleaners are professionally trained. 

You may pay a bit more for experienced and trained personnel, but you will also get a better quality job. The best case of a window cleaning company is one that not only cleans residential windows but high-rise windows too. This gives you peace of mind that they know what they will be doing and are efficient.

Ask if The Window Cleaners Have All The Correct Tools 

If they are a reputable service provider, they will have all the tools that they need and then even more for extra tough jobs. Your provider should have an assortment of brushes, squeegees, microfiber cloths, and mops along with extension poles to reach up high and ladders or a lift system for very tall windows like in commercial window cleaning. They should also have a water-fed pole system to help them give you quality cleaning at greater heights. A professional window cleaning company also uses heavy-duty industrial detergents that work very well even in tough situations and has scrapers on hand to remove paint and stain from windows.

Ask About the Exact Services The Window Cleaners Will Supply

Make certain that the provider you choose will not only clean the glass surfaces but also clean the window frames and sills, especially when they’re doing residential window cleaning for your home. If the frames and sills are not cleaned, when the first rain comes about, it will likely spew dirt and grime on the glass panes below them. All the water must be removed that collects in these areas, or after the job is complete, you may find dirty streaks on the exterior of your home or building.

If your windows have screens on them, you should ask if they also clean the screens. Some window cleaning companies include this in their price, while others add a fee for cleaning your screens.

Ask if the Window Cleaner Quote Includes Transportation 

Some companies may undercut prices and then tack on expensive transportation costs to drive to your location and sometimes back to their shop as well.

Asking these questions and making sure what is included in your quotes for professional window cleaners can help you to make an informed decision when comparing companies so you get the best quality job for your money.

Most people love the look of their home after it’s freshly power washed. It looks so shiny and new again!

But many homeowners also wonder if we can power wash their houses in the winter. Whether you’ve procrastinated the task, or were gone all summer and didn’t have time to schedule it, you can still power wash a house in the winter. However, there are some restrictions to this. Let’s take a look at some of the things to consider before you schedule your winter power washing.
