Mobile Window cleaning

For reasons I don't really want to go into I am going to have to sack my window cleaner the next time he visits to try and clean my windows.
Anyhow, we do not have another window cleaner locally, it seems the current cleaner had the monopoly around here.
I can clean the downstairs easily but am looking to get some kind of pole system do that I (read, hubby&#128540 can reach the upstairs. Can anyone recommend anything? Thanks in advance.

We bought one from maplins a couple of years ago... wouldn't trust window cleaner round here as far as I could throw him but that's another story... we don't use it very often but when OH does clean them he does a good job 👏... think it was about £15

There very handy, we too saw them outside Maplins and bought one for cleaning the caravan. I managed to persuade DH they would clean the windows as well and they do!

Get the ladders out and send him up there with a bucket and the Karcher window vac. I have just done mine.

Where we live you see a window cleaner, he comes once and you never ever see them again. Weird as it's good money albeit darn cold in the Winter.

We have a window vac but I won't use ours outside windows too scratchy on the outside 😜
My friends partner is a window cleaner and he makes a good living from his round of fact not long since he sold part of his round off so he could ease up a bit.

I bet he looks as enthusiastic as my OH will when I present him with the telescopic pole.😂
