Title: Brown Wooden frames
Post by: SB Cleaning on June 17, 2010, 04:04:28 pm

Hi all :)

I have a house to clean on saturday with modern brown wooden frames, do these give any problems WFP??

I have only cleaned a few houses with UPVC frames so far and they have come up well, just a bit nervous bout this one!!!

hte worst that can happen is it may take more than one clean to get right. plenty of rinsing should do it. when i do my own windows which are stained wooden georgian style they come up fine.

how do you do your georgian windows? Do you scrub each pane then rinse off as if its one sheet of glass all the way down?

I do some hardwood frames and they are great. No problems with them.

sounds like I have been doing it right then, Was worried that they would not come up good with all the water dripping of the frames around each pane (If you catch ma drift).

Thanks for all the replys guys, you have put my mind at rest a bit now :)

This property also has a lot of ivy growing around the windows on one side, will this prolong the water running down the wall onto the the downstairs windows??
