Thinking of signing a contract for a window cleaning service, either for your home or your business? Congrats! This way, your windows will never be dirty and you won’t have to think about calling up your window cleaners – instead, they’ll just magically appear when the time is right.

But before you sign the contract and pop open the champagne to celebrate (as you do when you sign a window cleaning contract), there are some questions you should ask your window cleaners. We’ll go through the top 5 questions to pose before signing anything.

1) How long have you been in business for?

Experience goes a heck of a long way if you’re looking for a window cleaner. It’s not just about judging how good they are at cleaning windows: it’s about the way they operate a business. Sure, they may be fantastic at cleaning windows. But do they rock up on time? Do they present themselves professionally? Have they established a solid client base which holds them in high regard? Figure this out before signing anything. 

2) Do you have similar clients to us?

Your window cleaners should be jumping out of their seats to answer this question and show off their happy customers. If your window cleaners seem to have a few clients that are similar to you, whether we’re talking about residential or commercial, then it’s a good sign that they’re the right fit. They should have a couple of testimonials ready to go from existing clients too.

3) What equipment do you use?

Here’s a classic question for any window cleaner – one which will separate the amateurs from the pros. Professional window cleaners should have a dedicated work vehicle, a pure water de-ioniser, poles for windows up high and a range of quality cleaning agents. If your window cleaners insist they can do just as good as job with a bucket and rag, they’re probably not the real deal!

4) Are you insured?

Always make sure that anyone working on your home or building is insured, even if they’re only there to vacuum the carpets. This will save you heaps of stress on the off-chance that something doesn’t quite go to plan.

5) What are your rates?

This post wouldn’t be complete without the golden question: how much do you charge? Grab a few quotes from different window cleaning business to make sure you’re getting a fair price from your window cleaners. There’s no point in paying more for a service that isn’t as good!

We hope this has helped you seal the deal with a top quality window cleaning team. If you’re currently looking for one, give the team at Reliable Window Cleaning a call! They’re happy to answer all of these questions in depth for you, priding themselves on great workmanship, state-of-the-art equipment and competitive rates.

We’ve all been there. You set out to clean your windows, thinking you’ll be able to get it done easily within an hour or so. Then, after what feels like an eternity of scrubbing, you’ve only completed a single window… and it’s taken you half an hour. 

So, how do we avoid spending a whole day trying to clean hour windows? How do we clean them efficiently? Lucky for you, we’ve gathered some expert advice on how to make window cleaning efficient, sparing you from cleaning the same spot, over and over, like some kind of psychotic, window-cleaning zombie.

Pick the right weather

If you’re not a professional and don’t have all the fancy gear that the pros do, then you’ll probably want to choose a day with the right weather for cleaning windows. Aim for a day that is dry but cloudy – the sun can create nasty streaks on your windows, which kind of defeats the purpose of doing it in the first place. 

Get rid of the dust

From afar, you may not be able to see it but, up close, your windows are a prime collector of dust and dirt. Cleaning your windows without removing this gunk first will result in smudging and spreading it all over the window. Take to your window with an old dry towel or a brush in order to get the dirt off. Then you can get started on the cleaning process.

Choose a good quality cleaner

There’s no point trying to clean your windows with a bit of water and no cleaning agent. You’ve got to use a good quality cleaner to cut through the grime and make your windows shine… hey, that rhymes! You don’t need to buy the most expensive stuff on the market, you just need to make sure it’s a decent glass cleaner.

Work methodically

Start from the top and work your way to the bottom. Don’t lose track of where you are when cleaning your windows because you might then waste time cleaning a spot that you’ve already cleaned!

Hire a professional

Possibly the most efficient way to make window cleaning efficient is to hire a professional. Not only do they get the job done quicker and safer, but they also save you from going out and buying the specific equipment for window cleaning. You also won’t have to wait around for the right type of weather! Professional window cleaners can get the job done, even if the sun is beating.

Cleaning routines are super structured for some things, and not so much for others. Most people shower once a day and brush their teeth twice a day, apart from that one guy in the office from whom everybody keeps their distance. It’s a bit of a no-brainer. But what about cleaning your windows? It’s easy to let that slip for longer than you should. We’re going to discuss some different factors that determine how often you should get your windows cleaned, and who to call for the best window cleaning service.

Home or office/business?

The first thing to work out: are they home windows or business windows? Windows for your business should be cleaned more regularly than home windows, especially if we’re talking about a shop front that displays your products. How are your customers going to see your products clearly if your windows are dirty? Riddle us that.

Residential windows require regular cleaning too, but there’s not as much at stake as there is for business windows. We’d say three or more times a year is a good amount to have your home windows professionally cleaned.

Season

Personally, we love having clean windows in winter, but there’s a slight paradox to this. Clean windows in winter means you can look outside and clearly see the rain pouring down… but the rain also makes our windows streaked and dirty – so it’s a Catch 22! Having a long-lasting, effective window cleaning service before and after winter has gone is advisable. Summer is another important time to invest in window cleaning as this is prime time for wasps and other insects to start making a home out of your window sills if you don’t get them cleaned regularly.

What kind of window?

Some windows should be cleaned more regularly than others. If you’ve got balcony windows that provide amazing views, it’d be pretty silly not to get them cleaned on the regular. How else are you and your guests going to enjoy that million-dollar view? These windows have a higher priority than, say, the top windows in your basement.

Who cleans them?

Now, we’re not going to get out the cat claws, but it’s true that some window cleaning businesses simply can’t compete with others. Who you choose to clean your windows makes a massive difference when it comes to a lasting result. The better your window cleaners are, the less frequently you’ll need to book them in!

Sometimes improving our health takes a heap of effort. Going to the gym, cutting out our favourite treats and making more of an effort to eat healthy all come with a range of benefits… but let’s face it: they’re frickin’ hard to keep up with! Getting your windows professionally cleaned, on the other hand, is one super simple thing that comes with a range of health benefits. Let’s discuss why cleaning your windows is a great thing to do for your health, and who to call to clean them for you in the Perth area!

Less dirt and dust

Windows collect dirt and dust over time, and the longer you leave them without cleaning them, the more and more dust will accumulate! Not only does this look gross, but it’s really not great for the ol’ respiratory system. We all know the dust is far from pleasant to be breathing in – especially if you or someone in your home or office is an asthmatic. When you book in with a pro window cleaner, they’ll clean both side of your windows, getting rid of all the nasty dirt and dust. Then, you’ll be able to breathe again!

Cleaner airflow

If you love opening up your windows to let a cool breeze in during spring or summer, we can totally vibe with you. There’s nothing better than feeling that light zephyr of fresh air when it fills your room. But if you haven’t cleaned your windows in a while, chances are your window screen is going to be a little grimy. This means that all the dust will flow into your home when you open the window, completely defeating the purposes of getting ‘fresh air’. Professional window cleaners can take care of this for you, using special equipment and products to clean your window screen.

Brightens your day

Clean windows don’t just have physical health benefits – they can have mental health benefits too! Getting your windows cleaned professionally is one way to, quite literally, brighten your day. Sunlight passes easily through clean windows, giving you more vitamin D. On top of that, you’ll have a better view through your window which can do wonders for your mood. It’s a common fact that most people feel better when their house is clean and it’s no different with windows. The cleaner your windows are, the better you’ll feel about looking through them.

So, maybe the key to getting some extra health in your life doesn’t have to revolve around kale smoothies and going for a morning run… maybe the answer lies with Reliable Window Cleaning! They’re Perth’s experts in window cleaning, offering their services for domestic and commercial buildings alike. A family owned and operated business, Reliable Window Cleaning treat your windows as if they were their own.

Window cleaning seems easy, right? Especially when you watch a professional do it. They seem like artists wielding a paintbrush as they squeegee large windows up and down, side to side. In reality, we know it’s not as easy as it looks. Anyone who’s ever cleaned a window knows that it can be a right pain in the backside, especially if you make a few common mistakes. Let’s put an end to this as we aim to help you avoid the most common mistakes when cleaning windows. 

Using an old newspaper

Your great grandfather did it, your grandfather did it, your dad did it and now you do it too: what could be so wrong about using an old piece of newspaper to clean your windows? While it may work for some, it could turn out disastrously for others. Some newspapers have a higher tendency to smudge, covering your window in ink which then needs to be cleaned off again. So, forget the family tradition of using newspaper – opt for something more consistent like a microfiber cloth.

Not cleaning off the dirt

Another big mistake is to not clean off the dirt and dust before washing your windows. Grab a brush or a dry towel to do this first. That way, your window cleaning product won’t mix with the dirt and won’t create a horrible brown smudging effect.

Not cleaning the frames

Picture this: you’ve spent lots of time wiping down the glass. It looks fantastic. Then, you come out of your tunnel vision and realise you’ve completely forgot to clean the frames which are possible even dustier and dirtier than the glass itself! Make sure you clean the frames before you clean the glass. This way, you won’t have to worry about the dust flying back up and sticking to your nice, clean windows.

Hiring someone who isn’t a professional

If you’re thinking of hiring someone to clean your windows, it can be tempting to go with the first person off of Gumtree. This is a big mistake. How do you know that their work is of good quality, that they’re reliable and that they have the right equipment? Always choose a reputable, official window cleaning business. You can trust a proper business to clean your windows because they have an extensive client base, loads of experience and, most importantly, they’re insured!

The truth is, there are lots of common mistakes to make when attempting to clean your windows. That’s why so many Aussie businesses and households choose a professional window cleaning team like Reliable Window Cleaning. They’re Perth’s finest team for professional window washing, specialising in residential and light commercial buildings. Family-owned and operated, Reliable Window Cleaning offer quality workmanship at affordable prices. Get a quote from the team at Reliable today!

As much as you’d like to deny it, cleaning your windows is always the last (and most forgotten) thing on your to-do list. You make numerous phone calls booking in carpet cleaners and bathroom cleaners but, by the end of the day, you’ve neglected your poor, old windows. Commercial window washing is something that can’t be done by anyone else but a professional, so it’s super important to take care of it on a regular basis. Here are our five top reasons to stop procrastinating and simply book in for a professional window clean.

1) A durable clean

Cleaning your windows can be tough enough, but what about cleaning them so that their cleanliness lasts for ages? Commercial window washers use a range of high quality agents and have years of experience in the field, employing the right techniques for the right kind of window. Your windows stay clean for a lot longer when they’re handled by a professional, and part of this is also thanks to the equipment they use.

2) Specialised equipment

If you think you’ll get the same level of clean by using an old rag and some water, you can guess again! Commercial window washers use the best products and specialised equipment to get the job done. Reliable Window Cleaning, for example, use a 40ft water-fed pole and a pure water de-ioniser which ensures that all windows can be reached and that your windows will be free of streaks. 

3) It’s a lot quicker than doing it yourself

Professional window cleaners move with speed. Where you might take all day to clean your windows, a professional can get them spick and span within a couple of hours.  

4) It’s safer than doing it yourself

More importantly, hiring a commercial window washer is a lot safer than attempting it yourself. Getting on top of ladders to clean your windows is something you should never do: it compromises your balance and increases your risk of fall. Even without ladders, there’s a chance of injury. Outstretching your arm too much, or bending over in a tight position can both lead to injuries like blowing a disc or inflaming your bursa, causing bursitis.

5) It could even be cheaper than doing it yourself

We’re not kidding – hiring a professional could work out cheaper in the long run. Let’s say you go out and buy a range of window cleaning products and get your windows nice and clean. The next day, you wake up to find they’re all streaked and look shabby as all get out. You may as well cut out the first step and go straight to a pro window cleaning service! 

We’d love to keep you here all day but we’re sure that these 5 reasons are enough to convince you to make the switch to a commercial window washing service. Reliable Window Cleaning are the only team you need to keep in mind. They’re specialists in commercial windows in the Perth area and take great pride in their quality service and competitive rates.

Everybody deserves to enjoy a safe, comfortable work space: an environment that has supportive co-workers, clean facilities and is free from those colleagues who complain about their kids at every given opportunity. Like, c’mon Debra, give it a rest, would you?! 

While it may not be possible to get rid of every single Debra in the office to create a better work environment, there are other, simpler ways we can improve our work space. One way is to invest in commercial window cleaning.

Great for morale

Nobody likes living or working in a dirty environment. While you may have cleaners who come in once a week and vacuum the carpets, clean the bathroom and empty the bins, the cleanliness of your work space isn’t complete without clean windows. You’ll find that when extra attention is paid to cleanliness in the office, it boosts the morale and work ethic of your employees. They’ll feel happier, safer and (hopefully) enjoy a more productive mood!

Essential for merchandising

Now, what about the business side of things? If you run a business that has a strong focus on merchandising, like a clothing store, café, restaurant, fruit and veg shop or anything else, your work environment will benefit massively from professional window cleaning. Potential customers will be able to clearly your products or read the atmosphere of your restaurant when your windows are squeaky clean.

Improved hygiene

You can’t expect your employees to feel great about their work environment if your windows are covered in dust and dirt. Windows and window frames are a breeding ground for dust when not cleaned regularly and this can be really detrimental to your work environment. Plus, if you have someone who suffers from asthma in your team, you’d putting them at great risk by exposing them to all that dust. Professional window cleaners eliminate the nasties and improve the hygiene of your work space.

Fresh perspectives

Looking out the window is something we all do from time to time. It can help us think, it can boost our mood and it can give us a quick and much-needed break before we kick our brains back into 5^th gear. Looking through clean windows is so much better than looking through dirty, streaked ones. This is just another small way in which commercial window cleaning can create a better work space!

Whether you want improved hygiene, more effective merchandising, boosted morale or an overall more pleasant atmosphere in your office or business, the answer lies in professional window cleaning. Reliable Window Cleaning are Perth’s experts in commercial windows, helping you get your business as presentable as possible. A family owned and operated business, Reliable Window Cleaning guarantee a quality service at an affordable price. Help them help you by grabbing a quote today.

It’s great that we live in a society in which being energy efficient is a top priority. Not just because it saves us from burning a hole in our own wallets, but also because we’re committed to using less of the world’s resources. So, this brings us round to a question that gets asked a lot: are windows more energy efficient when they’re clean than when they’re dirty? You might be surprised by the answer. In this post, we’ll discuss the energy efficiency of cleaner windows and tell you who to call if you want the cleanest windows in Perth.

Clean windows allow more light into your home

There are definitely a couple ways that clean windows contribute to the energy efficiency of your home. Allowing more light to pass through and warm up your home is one of them. If your windows are super dirty and streaked, light can’t properly pass through them. Plus, you can’t properly see if your neighbour’s dog is doing its business on your lawn… again. This results in less natural heating for your home, meaning you’ll spend more on energy bills when you turn on the heater. If your windows are clean, you’ll have to use the heater slightly less on cold but sunny days. 

Cleaning your windows prevents damage which, in turn, hinders energy efficiency

While cleaning your windows may not give you an immediate return on your energy bills, it’s certainly part of a long-term plan to maximise your energy efficiency. Getting your windows professionally cleaned prevents damage to the glass and the frames. If your glass and frames are damaged, then this can allow for outside air to filter into your home, massively reducing the energy efficiency of your home. So, while we’re not saying that having clean windows is going to have the same effect as installing solar panels, it’s a great step towards your long-term energy efficiency plan. 

Clean windows are extra important if you don’t have double glazing

Double glazed windows are much more effective at insulating your home than single glazed windows. Most people in Australia use single glazed windows, since we don’t have the harsh winters that are experienced in Europe or North America. If you’re in this boat, then you’ll want to do everything you can to keep your windows as energy efficient as possible – which includes having them cleaned regularly by a professional.

The truth about clean windows is that, no, you won’t save hundreds on your energy bills by having them professionally cleaned – but you will be helping the overall energy efficiency of your home as a whole, especially in the long run.

Is there anything more satisfying in life than having squeaky clean windows? Nope, we certainly don’t think so. It’s not just about hygiene or home or office presentation; having clean windows literally gives you a whole new perspective of the outside world. Before we start getting too philosophical, let’s take a look at 8 massive practical benefits of professional window cleaning, and where to go if you want the best window cleaning service in Perth.

1) Unparalleled level of clean

Professional window cleaning gets your windows to a standard of clean which is simply unmatchable. These pros use high-end products, professional equipment and safety techniques to get the job done to the highest standards.

2) Safety

Safety is a huge bonus of professional window cleaning. Cleaning your own windows from a ladder is something to avoid, because often you have to struggle to put the effort in which is dangerous when your balance is compromised. You shouldn’t have to crouch or strain your back to have clean windows either – unless you want to spend money going to the physio for the next few weeks!

3) A super durable clean

Want a window that stays clean for longer? You’ll want a professional window cleaning service. Professional window cleaners use products that make it hard for dust and dirt to stick to your windows, providing a long-lasting clean window. 

4) It’s so much quicker

Professional window cleaners take far less time to clean your windows than if you were going to do it yourself. With state of the art equipment and advanced cleaning techniques, window cleaners are lightning quick at what they do.

5) It’s hygienic

Cleanliness is godliness, as they say. Having clean windows in your home and office is part of maintaining great hygiene. Window cleaners clean both sides of your windows, so you’re not breathing in the dust that accumulates on the inside.

6) Added home value

If you’re going to put your home on the market, you simply must have your windows professionally cleaned. Windows are one of the first things that get noticed by prospective buyers and can really make your home stand out.

7) Personal satisfaction

We can all agree that there’s something super satisfying about cleaning. You feel fresh, safe and rejuvenated when your home or working space is clean!

8) New perspective

Looking at the outside world through dirty windows just isn’t the same as looking through clean ones. Professional window cleaning gives you a real mood-booster, especially if you love looking at the outside world.
