When undertaking window cleaning Bristol homeowners often favour a “DIY” approach: Once or twice a year, when they notice their windows getting intolerably filthy, they haul out a ladder and some glass cleaner and go to work… Often just to find themselves staring at streaky, smudged-looking windows again a week or two later.
Unbeknownst to many of these homeowners, there is a better way: It’s possible to ‘go pro’ and have a window cleaning service take care of this difficult and dangerous job instead—often with much better results.
Professional Window Cleaning Bristol: Why Hire A Cleaning Service?
When debating whether or not to hire out window cleaning Bristol homeowners should consider the following four benefits of professional services:
1. When you hire a pro, there’s no risk of personal injury. Balancing on a ladder while juggling cleaning tools and wiping down a slick surface is hardly a safe occupation, especially if you’re not used to operating a ladder (which, of course, most of us aren’t). Hiring a cleaning service is therefore an inexpensive way to completely prevent the risk of serious injury while also ensuring your windows stay squeaky-clean.
2. Cleaners have access to the best equipment (and therefore produce a superior clean). Professional-grade cleaning tools and solutions are almost always superior to their consumer-grade counterparts. Additionally, professionals are trained in the use of the best cleaning techniques. Put these two advantages together and you get a flawless, residue-free cleaning job. As it’s cleaner residues that are responsible for attracting fresh grime, hiring a pro therefore also ensures that your windows will stay clean for a much longer period of time.
3. Your windows will last longer if they are cleaned professionally. Dirt, debris, and improper cleaning techniques often combine to create dull, scratched windows. Over time, with repeated harsh scrubbing, the dirt actually begins to ‘etch’ the glass, destroying its sheen and transparency. Eventually, this damages windows so severely that they must be replaced—an operation that is far more costly than hiring a professional cleaning service to clean and protect your windows for you.
4. Professionally-cleaned windows will improve the look, feel, and mood of your home. Crystal-clear windows lend your home more curb appeal while also permitting more light to enter its interior. The more light that shines throughout your abode, the bigger your home’s rooms will appear and the brighter your mood will be. You and your family will also feel more alert during the day and sleep better at night owing to the ability of bright light to maintain the body’s circadian rhythm.
When you hire a professional window cleaner, you will net all of the advantages above while also giving yourself more time off on the weekend to simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the view from your sparkling-clean windows. Window cleaning rates are very reasonable and cleaners generally don’t require that a contract be signed, so you will have the freedom to test the waters and decide for yourself if professional window cleaning is right for you.
