Title: could not see them, let alone througth them

Hi,

They were black as the ace of spades, the frames as well. While cleaning them I was thinking must be 25 years since last cleaned. On getting paid she tells me she has been their 5 years & its the first time she has had them cleaned.

Great satisfaction for both of us upon seeing the difference.

Kevin,

I bet she sacks you within a few months!  If she could live with that much filth on her windows for five years, she won't be wanting a regular window cleaner.

I bet you a bent squeegy channel that I'm right.

Hi,

Tosh,

I don't do regular service.  Appointment service only with me, ie they call me when they want beit once a month or year.

Its very satisfying! I love getting really dirty black windows and watch them come up sparkling!

Kevin,

Can you make a living out of working that way?  I hope you charge REALLY good money for that service.  And it must be difficult to build up a decent rapport with a customer if you only see them twice a year (for example).
