Window Cleaning
Your Number One Choice For Professional Window Cleaners
Why Is Window Cleaning Important?
Hey we get it. We're professional window cleaners, so of course, we're supposed to give you the pitch and tell you why you need to get your windows cleaned on a regular basis.
But there's more to it than just that streak-free shine-or paying us to get the job done.
Window cleaning is more than a luxury-it's a necessity.
Let's give the low down on why:
Your windows are made of glass-not rocket science here folks.
But you may not know that over time glass begins to deteriorate.
Because glass is porous, it soaks up all of those pollutants, allergens, microorganisms, and bacteria that you're trying to keep out. And that's just for the exterior windows.
If you're a smoker or enjoy candles and incense, the smoke heads right to the interior of your windows and stays there. The same holds true for cooking-odours cling to those panes like the smell of old cabbage.
As glass deteriorates, it becomes weaker, and you may start to notice spider cracks-the tiniest fractures forming in your glass.
Over time-much like a cracked windshield on a vehicle-these fissures get deeper and more prominent.
Eventually, the glass will need to be replaced. And if you think professional window cleaning is expensive, go out and price the cost of new windows for your home or commercial property.
We're more focused than ever on sustainability and energy-efficient solutions. Window cleaning is just playing smart. Not only are you helping address environmental issues by using less natural resources to heat or cool your home, but you're saving yourself money in the process.
Clean windows allow that natural light to shine and keep the heat and cool where you want it. Dirt particles left on even energy-efficient windows build up and start to reflect UV light away from your home or business. It kind of defeats the purpose doesn't it?
What Are The Different Types of Window Cleaning?
We've covered the why behind window cleaning.
Now let's take a closer look at the different types of window cleaning services.
There are four methods including:
The 4 Types Of Window Cleaning:
-
Traditional Window CleaningList Item 4
Traditional Window Cleaning is the old-school method that many homeowners think of when they hear discussions around window cleaners.
The old soapy water pail and bucket with a squeegee method.
Hop on the ladder and you're off.
This method is the most cost-effective and can be used for both interior and exterior windows.
The risk is, of course, the ladder, and it tends to get messy if you don't know what you're doing.
-

Pole-Fed System is the window cleaning Mac-Klean uses for all of our commercial and residential window cleaning jobs.

The pure water system pulls dirt and debris away from the windows, dissolving it and creating a clean that lasts longer than traditional window cleaning.
-
Mobile Elevated Platform Window Cleaning

Best suited for commercial buildings, skyscrapers and apartment complexes (thing 60m and higher).
Mobile elevated platforms are definitely the most dangerous.
It's an elevated platform and mechanical lifting system operated by professionals in the cradle.

And even then this window cleaning method is not without potential risks like:
- Falling debris
- Overturning from strong winds or rain
- Power lines

It gets the job done.
But it's pricey and should only be performed by trained professionals.

And you better not be afraid of heights.
