Getting the Timing Right
A professional window cleaner can wash windows in most weather conditions. What few clients realize, however, is that professional window cleaning works best on overcast or cooler days. When the weather is extremely hot, the water will evaporate quickly, leaving soapy rings on the glass.
Therefore, you are less likely to see a professional team schedule work during a heat wave. In California, there is little need to worry about snow. However, in colder climates, it’s just as bad to wash windows in icy temperatures as the water can freeze on the windows.
The Danger
Most property owners believe window cleaning is relatively simple; it’s just a matter of applying the cleaning agent and then rinsing it off, right?
It’s a very different matter when the homeowner is up on a ladder trying to balance while reaching every spot. Mix in a pressure washer, and now the simple cleaning job becomes a treacherous undertaking.
More than 500,000 people in the US receive medical treatment for falling off a ladder annually. More shocking is that falls are the leading cause of workplace fatalities among professionals. Even with the proper safety equipment and expertise, it’s easy to fall. For the untrained and inexperienced, the danger is greater.
Covering Every Spot
Furthermore, for property owners to be able to reach the entire pane can prove challenging. Even with a single-story home, the upper edge of the window is high off the ground, making it difficult to reach.
Knowing What Tools and Supplies to Use
There is a vast array of window cleaning equipment and supplies from which to choose. Factor in old home remedies that recommend using vinegar and newspaper for a streak-proof finish, and it is more confusing.
Professionals use the best industrial cleaning supplies and equipment to produce consistent results. Homeowners need to make do with buckets of water, the garden hose, or a pressure cleaner. All of these tools professionally-wielded are effective but can prove challenging for someone without experience.
