Ways To Pick A Window Cleaner In Glasgow

Read More About Franchise

I have always lived in places where the window cleaning was always pre-arranged and you only paid so much per month and it was all sorted for you. This was fine and I took it for granted until I moved into my own place and had to start looking for a window cleaning contractor that could do a fine job, you know, like in those commercials where the glass is so clean that people walk right through it (or at least, try to)?
I started my search for a window cleaning company in Western Scotland or a window cleaning contractor in Kilmarnock or maybe a window cleaning company in Ayr just to make sure I got my bases covered and hopefully found the best in the area. To make sure I got the big professional ones too I looked at window cleaning companies in Glasgow to see how the big boys do it and how much they charge.
Now here's a really neat trick, if you are looking for any service at all be it plumbing, website design or window cleaning and you know what you want but you dont want to be short-changed, you can ask the simple question, "why should I pick you?" and the people you are talking to will answer you in industry language. In other words, they are the "experts" in this field and they know the criteria used to judge good work, they know the background required to do the work and all kinds of certification and insurances that you and I would probably never think of or maybe at best, just dont want to think about. Their statements will be something like, "we are certified by Ladders Free and we are covered in such and such ways and we use such and such equipment". I did not know anything about this and a quick google around the net showed me that to be certified as Ladders Free a window cleaning companyhad to have the following:
oPublic Liability Insurance
oEmployers Liability Insurance
oCommercial Customer Referees
oKnow all the Health & Safety Procedures of window cleaning
oHave a Current Competency Report
oThey also use water-fed poles which means they will not need to climb up too high making the whole situation safer and clatter-free. Nothing worse than scaffolding around your property for weeks just to clean two windows!
They will also more than likely have the "LaddersFree" somewhere on their stationery

Now the industry guys have gone to great lengths to take a thorough look at a window cleaner's background to make sure they are fit to work in this industry and also to be trusted around your property. This is all so you and I are safe when we contract window cleaning companies in our local areas. So that was one thing I quickly learnt and to cut a long story short, I will now put more points for you to look at below.
oDue to the use of water-fed poles they cut costs by taking scaffolding or cherry pickers out of the picture and can pass these savings on to you
oCladding and gutters can be cleaned from the ground
oThey can access those awkward areas in the back so your windows are cleaned all round. There is nothing worse than a striking clean window next to one that's starting to look tinted due to filth! It just does not work.
oOther places on site can be cleaned as well such as street lamps, signage, solar panels, wind turbines, canopies, conservatories and atriums
oClient privacy is maintained as there is no need to climb to their bedroom or bathroom windows or above. All washing is done from the ground.
oLandscaping and flower beds are not damaged by ladders, scaffolding or bulky cherry pickers.
oBuildings, siding and window sills are not marked by ladders
oWork is quicker and operatives are off the site sooner than cleaners using ladders/ scaffolding/ cherry pickers and so on
oThey use inonized-water in the poles and this makes the wash last longer than ordinary tap-water. My window cleaning contractor in East Kilbride, Scotland has saved me money already since he now only comes once a month (not twice) due to the ionized water cutting my bills in half!
oProven Experience and Quality Service
oPositive Word of Mouth or testimonials, talk to their other customers as you will need to know, trust and like your window washer so you can give them un-supervised access to your property while you do your other life essential activities.
oPick a window cleaner that's within your budget
oWhen you look at testimonials as mentioned above, do not forget to ask how they handled any problem areas in the past. This is important as you will need to have a way to complain or voice any concerns you may have should anything go wrong in the future.
