PVC-U window frames can and in my case did become loose after a period of time because of a window cleaner resting ladders on them. That's all I have to say on this matter bud....

It's not just "the weight of the ladder".

If your at quite a high window and your at the top of the ladder, you've got alot your weight pushing onto the A as well.

Still can't believe your arguing it's ok to put a ladder up against the weakest point of a UPVC frame. It's common sense to put it on the brick work.

I know it's not just the weight of the ladder. The weight of a ladder with someone cleaning windows must obviously include the weight of the person cleaning the winders minus the effects of the angle. Der........

Of course it's common sense etc, etc, etc.

I suggest you write to all the window replacement companies to put warning stickers on the frames to warn of the dangers and at the same time, inform the H & S because they've obviously never looked into the problem and while you're at it, just pray the wind never blows hard other wise you'll be having to replace replace those window bolts.

Or to put it bluntly, and sorry if this sounds rude, I know BS when I smell it.

Must admit that did make me chuckle thinking it was a joke, reminds me when a customer cancelled because she said the spray of water from my brush on her house front was causing damp and all her wallpaper was coming loose...what utter rubbish

If the window frames and even single glazed windows are not sealed properly it wont help using a wfp for sure. Some types of window frames can let water in too so she may not be that bonkers after all. Doors can be the same

Some domestic (manly older folk) dont like there windows being left wet also water running down their walls. Also when working on shop fronts most want them left dry and sparkling so customers can see inside.

He could of put the ladders like that to get the photo for the web site. He may not clean the window with the ladders resting on them!

On a similiar note he may not even be a window cleaner.

I'm off to Tenerife next week and I want to fly in a proper aeroplane with propellors. None of this new-fangled jet stuff and certainly no contrails for Mark the Acorn to get upset about.

It'll take six and a half hours instead of four but that's traditional flying that is.

Six hours in an aeroplane with propellers would still be better than going in a Ryanair jet.
