Put in an offer to the shop for window cleaning or even better for their general cleaning as well.  Hope you get it sorted and he doesn't turn nasty.  Would be good to name the company though so no others are stung.

Pretty sure it's the same company that still owes me over £120 for cleaning a local bookies. Very tempted to post the company name on here but worried it might cause some legal issues.

Where would I stand in outing this company given that they actually owe me money and it's not just me slagging off their reputation but an honest account of an outstanding debt

Get in touch with your local trading standards office, as well as the police, you might be able to get them nicked for obtaining services by deception.

If they are a registered company take them to the small claims court as well, I would also send a bill and letter explaining what has happpened to all the shops that you have cleaned as well.

They might not pay you but they will be ticked off with the company who was surposed to do the job.
