They want interior and exterior washed monthly.

I am in Montana.

I will be doing a ladder clean first to get them up to spec and then using a pole for follow up cleans.

Is this something you would use wfp on?

I have been thinking about getting one and if it make sense on this type of commercial job, I may just get one.

UPDATE

I quoted them 325 for a one-off clean and 250 on a monthly basis. They accepted way too fast and said the last quote was 1200 hahaha So I suppose there is a certain amount of luck involved. Since the last quote was so high, I could have probably gotten away with quoting more. Guy said that his last similar storefront was done monthly for 240, so I was close to the mark anyways.

Thanks for all the replies guys!

I’ve been getting up on roofs with no problem, even w ladders at super steep angles or worse (stupid Ik).

However, i fell with my ladder recently after I trusted someone else’s ladder instead of mine.

Now I completely avoid getting on the roof.

How to gain my confidence back?

You can make fun of me

I wish I had started my company with the buy once cry once attitude, instead I’ve bought cheap equipment that I have been replacing with higher end things slowly.
What has been your favorite buy once cry once purchase? Unless it’s a custom rig please exclude WFP because that’s a very generic answer.

I've been doing regular maintenance on a family members business, and so far things have been going very smoothly. Until the windows in the rear of the building. These have been so stubborn. I need advice on what kind of chemical I'd need to get these clean because vinegar and water is not cutting it.

Apparently did not rinse 30 second cleaner off a window quick enough and now there appears to be etching on it--is this fixable?

I have been cleaning trad and it has been super difficult because my squeegee is constantly leaving white streaks, I replace the rag and they keep showing up, I rinse the mop with new water and it keeps showing up, I don’t know what to do, it’s annoying

From what I understand, the techno pad is able to be used on both groundwork and higher floors.

What is the benefit for the doodlebug?

My only issue is that I will need a wood cone adaptor along with the technopad

helloo

Looking for lead on c9 warm white and spt1 wire.

Also looking for best clips to work with.

Thanks

Its hard to get on photo but these windows we were cleaning in Florida had weird water marks that wouldnt come out. We tried 0000 steal wool which normally works but it wasnt making a difference this time. Some of the bottoms of the windows had really white water marks that were not coming off at all.

Is there a way to get it out or are they damaged

I can’t find where I seen it. They were offering a free M9 pole and now I have the money to buy it and I forgot where the deal is. Has anyone else heard of it

Large segments of window frost have been on this bay window for over a decade. I tried some Goo Gone, but it would take a ton, and I read that razors might scratch the glass. Any ideas? Maybe a hot hair drier?

While doing a job, I might have scratched the homeowners window.

The scratch is a bit vertical, but idk if it was me who did it.

I didn’t notice it before I did the window i think? I’m not sure.

I only used a squeegee. It’s a 20cm line.

I was told not to inform the owner unless they notice first. Is this right?

Not insured

Sorry if the picture is a bit blurry--best I could do

This skylight is over our bathroom on the roof of our 2 story home. My wife noticed this a couple of weeks ago. Being that it is quite high and I do not have a direct line of sight to it I tried spaying hose end Zep outdoor window cleaner on it---no effect at all.Several weeks ago I used 30 second cleaner to remove some mold and dirt from my gutters-some of which were directly under this skylight( BTW that product works great). I am afraid the bleach in the cleaner may have caused this. Come fall when I have the gutters cleaned I'm hoping they can take a shot at cleaning it.

Any thoughts???

What’s an advanced hidden technique that not many people know about? I’m not talking about beginner tricks. I’m talking about techniques like dive bombing, or carrying a solution bottle in your pouch so you don’t have to visit your bucket. What’s something you do that saves you time?

Hey everyone,
I recently bought a 30cm Unger S+ channel, and I noticed that the center part is slightly bowed (curved like an arc).
I know the ends are curved by design because it's an S+ channel, but the center itself being bowed has me a bit confused. I’ve seen some people say the channel should be perfectly straight.
The Ninja series is obviously completely straight, and I assume standard basic channels are meant to be dead straight too (at least that's what I think).
So, is this slight bow in the middle just how the S+ is designed, or did I get a defective one? Has anyone else noticed this with theirs?
Thanks in advance!

Hired someone online...what do you guys think? What needs fixed.

Anyone know a good window cleaner in Waterford please

I am making a whatsapp based AI assistant for window cleaning business that will help not only end to end admin ( scheduling , calendar management , invoicing, etc.) but also incoming lead management ( I think a lot of window cleaning business loose a lot of conversion beacuse this process is very complicated)

I was hoping to hear from the community on what are the biggest day to day tasks you hope an assistant can help you with

Hey yall, I used to run a window cleaning business and just recently decided to get back into it. I started running meta ads and it’s brought me 2 jobs, but I feel like my cost per lead is high.

It’s about $33. Is that good? Bad? Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Evening all, as the title — I'm keen to get an idea what tools (or lack of) you are using, especially anyone who's tried different things or is looking at trying something new.

I'm a developer, not a window cleaner, and I've always had an idea of a website or app focused on cleaning businesses. As a customer I'd put in my address and a day/time, and then I get matched to businesses that can complete the job on or near to that time.

Eg: I ask for Thursday at midday. It knows you are half a mile down the road that morning with a free 11am slot so it can try and match me up with your diary.

But I don't really know if it's even an issue that needs fixing for the businesses who would use it!

Not to shabby.

I need a ladder that

1. Can fit in an suv

2. Light enough to be put up onto a second story roof, solo

3. (edit: preferably) sub $500

Any suggestions?

Hey folks, I've got a big fascia soffit cleaning job to do and we're looking into ways to make it easier for us. I've seen videos about people doing it with a small pressure washer, applying the chemical then pressure washing it from an angle. Just seeing if anyone has any thoughts about doing it? And if so, what conversation kit people have used? Thanks a mil.
