Window cleaning might be your least favorite task around the house or office. For some, hiring an experienced window cleaning service comes second nature. However, some folks may not understand why they would need to hire a quality window cleaner. To better explain the benefits of professional window washing, I’ve put together a few ideas to consider.
Efficiency
Could you, your partner, or one of your staff clean the windows? Of course, but window cleaning can be very time consuming and depending on your house, building, or office space, it might not be real easy to do. Asking one of your co-workers to clean the windows might seem like a great idea, but consider what other tasks they might be able to do with that time that might be more productive for the business.
Having the right tools
There is no tool that a professional window cleaner uses that you couldn’t buy or rent, but it
does require investment. When you hire a company that specializes in cleaning windows you also know that the person you higher is going to know how to appropriately use those tools. Safety is always a concern when it comes to window cleaning. Although you might not consider cleaning windows to be a inherently dangerous task, that very much depends on the windows they are being asked to clean. Does the window require a step ladder, extension ladder, or even a mobile work platform in order to properly clean it? If you hire the right company, you should get a professional technician that knows the best way to clean your windows, and by best I really mean the safest way to clean the windows.
Impressing your Guest or Customers
If you run a professional business, or even if you are just inviting family / friends over to your house, your windows will likely be one of the first things that they see. Dirty windows can make a home or building look like it hasn’t been well taken care of. On the other hand, a residential property or commercial building that has sparkling clean glass can really help you impress the guest that you are inviting in.
Don’t let your glass get “beyond repair.”
Certain environmental buildup like bird droppings, hard water stains, or even building runoff
can cause permanent damage to your glass that can not be removed by basic window cleaning. If you are renting a building or office space, building maintenance could be part of your rental contract, and having the windows regularly cleaned could end up saving your money in the long run. Many residential windows will “fail” over time because the seal between the two pieces of glass deteriorates. Your may just think that the fog that you are seeing is dirt on the window when in actuality it is a bad seal. If you catch this early enough it might still be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. We have occasionally even had customers who received letters from their HOA or building association that requests that they clean their windows because they have let them get too dirty.
Don’t Forget the Happiness Clause
We hear it from clients all the time. “I love having my windows cleaned! It just makes me so happy”. Getting your windows cleaned professionally can make a huge difference in the appearance of your house or business. When the glass is clean and bright, it just seems to make people happy. We love cleaning windows, but what we love even more is happy customers.
How much does it cost?
Compared to many maintenance things that you may do to your house or office space, window cleaning might be one of the more affordable things. Every commercial building, office space, or residential structure is slightly different, so there is not single answer to the question. Most window cleaners will be happy to come out to your property and give you a free estimate so that you know exactly what the cost of cleaning your windows will be.
Does experience matter?
Like in anything the more experienced the window cleaning that you hire is, the better they are going to be able to do the task and the more efficient they will be at doing it.
