Wind how you getting on? Thinking of taking the plunge myself as I've already decided to start up a pressure washing business and an opportunity has arisen round my area for window cleaning too
i always do that too.. my patter is 'just so you know it can be difficult to get them perfect first time, but after the 2nd time they will be perfect' never had any1 complain because i have managed expectations
First cleans north west of Liverpool first cleans depending on the size of the property and what areas your working I would say first clean prices I would say if your charging £15.00 for the house you should be able to charge around the £30.00 mark for first clean depending on the size of the property and of course the most important how well of area your working
Love this guy ..... mate you should have well more subscribed to this channel you seem like cool guy and you take pride in your job mate. ... £45.00 for first clean is very decent here in Liverpool we would be looker to get around £30.00 for first clean then around £15.00 every 4 weeks.
I ve been a traditional window cleaner for 15 years but have been using WFP for the last month now.I've noticed on some windows i get a milky residue drying in the centre of some windows.Any idea what would cause this and how to avoid it happening in the future?? I always clean them again if i notice it while im still there but have been called back to 1 or 2 the following day for this issue!!
DOTSYirl it is usually where the frames have been previously cleaned with a cream cleaner like Cif for example and then not rinsed off properly. Still happens to me on occasion just deal with the call back politely and know that by clean #2 they will be fine.
As the bristles are usually a nylon base they rinse off really quickly and easily, When I have UBIX on my brush I just keep scrubbing till the bubbles stop - then I know I am pretty much there and ready to clean windows.
Are things that much cheaper outside of the US? I'm charging $200-$600 per home depending on how many windows they have and that's just washing the glass, nothing else. I couldn't possibly imagine making $55 per job.
No a house that size was a one-time clean it would be closer to £200 full stop the first clean charge is only £45 because we will be cleaning that property regularly for approximately £15 per month thereafter . in the UK windows cleaned monthly or bi-monthly on average
The difference is, once this is done (right) first time, it's a 5 second operation next time. And no time wasted or risk moving ladders around to do upstairs.
Hi Darren, Quick question, In terms of franchising what are the average percentages involved with the employer/employee per say and also what tax advantages are involved if any?. Regards, David
I want to switch to a WFP. However I'm scared it just can't get the dirtiest windows clean. I'm talking the dirty windows that take scrubbing with wool and razors. Most of the windows I clean haven't been cleaned in 10+ years!. Will the WFP get-r-dun? Do you charge extra for a 1st clean?
Can i ask you about the different types of jets you can get and for what diff types of jobs there needed? Do you use an old brush head for the ubix or first cleans?
If you mean drip marks after it's dried then there's two possible scenarios. A: You aren't scrubbing and more importantly rising thoroughly enough amd there's still a degree of dirt particles that arent completely rinsed off. B: Your water isn't at 000 on the TDS and this is causing spotting. Hope this helps.
@@Davez2023 no problems -you may also find a pair of Polarized sunglasses will help you see odd spots and bits of dirt you missed more easily - And not to cast and dispersions but do be sure to double check the TDS of the water you buy, you never do truly know.
Joel John just do it. They pay for a result (clean windows) not for how you clean the windows. Anyone grumbles just say. 'if they don't dry perfect just call and I'll come right back and 're do them' no one ever calls.
£45-50 for a first clean job? Wow I wish I could get away with charging that kind of money for a first clean. Here up in the North East I'd be lucky to be able to ask for a tenner!
deltafit You dont get it cause you dont ask. When I started in Nottingham a so called pro told me I wouldnt get £5 per house (3 bed semi) I got what I asked for (average £15) I know lads all over the North that charge more than I do. I promise you the only reason you dont get more is cause youre not asking for it.
Well arent you just the legend mate? Here's a suggestion. Take some time, set up your phone and make a vid to show us how it's done. Or just continue being an armchair warrior (probably what your best at anyway) 👍
using that spray would make about 5% difference, not worth it! to be honest just use pure water,it will save you time ive been doing window cleaning all my life and using sprays etc is a total waste of time...unless its really badly stained then i would consider it otherwise not worth it...save your money

No it will not always do a god job if the window is scummed up with thick water stains etc. Its not always as easy as looks on you tube. I do like my water fed system thow.
