Title: cleaning own windows
Post by: brynley on January 04, 2013, 05:00:05 pm
how often do you clean your own windows.

my partner asked me yesterday if she could book an appointment for me to clean our windows, i think she was trying to tell me something?

I cleaned them once, about six years ago; we just moved in and they were bogging.  Wor Lass has cleaned them ever since.

Up until recently I had a window cleaner ! He cleaned my windows, I cleaned his, they were always done every month without fail and everyone was happy. Sadly, he's switched to office cleaning now.

I usually do mine every six weeks or so.

Recently though, I've been telling myself  'not today', so I may dump and get two more.

Had some chap come round canvassing the other day. When the Mrs heard me asking him to give me a quote, she shouted out "Don't you dare you lazy @@@@@@" !

Fair play to the bloke tho.

I do mine, 2 next door and 1 opposite together 8 weekly.
Would be less frequent for mine but they pay and my kit's out so might as well while I'm there.

I'm as bad as some of my customers.

I live 14 floors up and on a hill less than a mile from the sea. Every time it blows a gale, which now seems to be frequently, the windows get covered in salt. Consequently I keep thinking that there's no point in cleaning them.

I've been in this flat 3 years and have cleaned them twice.
