Post by: Craig - CW Window Cleaning on March 06, 2015, 05:54:34 pm

Been a while since i done large apartment blocks is it expected to use ladders to get to balcony and clean doors and windows On the balcony?
Normaly use wfp, there are four floors.
this would be a regular contract.

Would you want to put a ladder up 3-4 floors and climb over to clean the door?
I know I wouldn't.

All the blocks of flats I clean with balconies I do not climb over and clean and I have not been asked to.This is for health and safety reasons.

Same as CGH for me.
Clean what's accessible.
If you want a bit of extra work, knock the block and say you'll clean the outside of the Juliet doors from inside if they pay for a full internal clean.

^^ Agree.

A company cleans a block of flats near us with 6 floors and glass panels in front of the opening french doors. He only cleans the top of the doors above the glass panels and the owner/tenant has to clean the bottom from inside.
