Window cleaning - how are you all managing?
Ground floor and conservatory aren’t a problem but I’ve managed to come up with a novel solution for upstairs windows...
I have attached a sponge/squeegee combination device to an extending pole then attached that to another pole (using black maskers and stiffeners) and then are able to reach upstairs... only two windows are awkward (above conservatory) but can be reached by repositioning . Very pleased with results . My device takes up the length of the garage. How are you all managing ? |

My window cleaner still came round last week! Didn't see any harm in letting him do them although it is a waste at the moment as we are waiting to have new windows fitted, but no idea when that will be!

Window cleaners still doing rounds in our area, we don't use a window cleaner any more, downstairs ones I can do, upstairs ones I wait for rain or tilt the blinds to a more flattering angle 😂

Badly. I shouldn’t have bothered as they are worse then they were before I cleaned them!

Mine need doing along with the guttering. I'm sure it's fine for them to be done as not contact needed

Being serious I have done the ground floor back and side using my Vileda window cleaner and did a good job. DH did the upstairs side of the house whilst he had the ladder out and they are not as good as the ones I did I don't do high ladders.
We haven't done any outside at the front as they are a pig to do.
