A professional window cleaning company will employ window cleaners that have mastered the use of specialised equipment and cleaning techniques. They will give a higher quality of clean compared to the home methods such as using vinegar and newspaper due to the equipment that they use and the techniques. There may be some of the same content in a commercial window cleaning agent as in a domestic cleaning agent, however you would not find a commercial window cleaner rubbing at windows with a cloth. Firstly this would be far too time consuming and secondly it would give a poor finish as there would be notable streaks.
If the building exterior windows need to accessed by descent, then the majority of the window cleaners time will not actually be taken up by cleaning but by checking the rigging and preparing for each descent. Health and safety guidelines on this are very strict as one would expect and there really is no way a window cleaner would cut any corners because it is a very real reality that it is a matter of life and death.
On the 7th of December 2007, in New York, two window cleaners were cleaning the windows of the 47th floor of a building when their scaffold structure they were using gave way and collapsed. The two workers then plummeted forty seven floors! Amazingly one of the workers actually survived and although he had extensive injuries, he was able to talk again the very next day. Doctors were so worried about his condition they believed that any slight movement may kill him so they performed the first of his operations without moving him to an operating theatre. Nine operations later and they had finally pieced together his broken body. The hospital’s chief of surgery was reported to have said “if you are a believer in miracles, this would be one”.
Professional window cleaning is not only a necessity; it is something we take for granted. At All Clean Services, we very aware of the danger our workers face daily that is why we NEVER compromise on health and safety requirements.
