gnvqsos Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 We used to pay £6, but now we pay £4-50 as the new company use poles rather than ladders and poles are cheaper. I am not sure if other Eastern Europeans are as cheap however. I used to pay £5 but since we have had double -glazing put in,the rates are £10!

shane39 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 All the houses where i live have windows designed so you can open them,then turn them inward to clean yourself.However,i don't know if its just laziness,but the window cleaner seems to do ok client wise.

hodgepodge Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I do my own. I can't bear paying others to do what I can do myself. They have not been done yet this year, but to be honest when we did have a window cleaner they were always dirty the week after they had visited.

walkertelecoms Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I do my own. I can't bear paying others to do what I can do myself. They have not been done yet this year, but to be honest when we did have a window cleaner they were always dirty the week after they had visited. eww what are they going to look like after 5 months? can you see through them? I pay £5 and Nev comes around once a month, within 2 or 3 days. We used to use someone prior that would turn up whenever the sun was out, hmm. I thought £5 was quite a bit until reading the above. The previous bloke has also turned to polls and I've watched them, doesn't look a very thorough job in my opinion compared to proper hands on, and a brush on a stick isn't going to get into all the nooks and crannies, and window sill properly Can only assume polls are a no-go with terraced houses, he'd have to stand in the middle of the road to do upstairs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
