I have written a book to help those involved with selecting and managing commercial window cleaning contractors.
I have been in the business of window cleaning for more than 30 years and have run my own successful business for more than 25 of those years. We have cleaned windows in almost every type of commercial premises including high rise office blocks, factories, warehouses, supermarkets, hotels, universities, historic buildings, schools, hospitals and residential units.
During that time I have learnt a huge amount about the business. I have come across some extremely professional people and, in truth, some rogues.
I have worked closely with a wide range of people who have been responsible for managing window cleaning on their sites. Some have been more experienced and knowledgeable than others, but they have all shared many of the same objectives, keeping windows clean, preserving the safety of their people and protecting their property, keeping personal input to a minimum, keeping costs reasonably low.
If, like me, you expect a good job for a fair price, then this booklet will help you to achieve all of these objectives.
So what should you expect from your window cleaning contractor? Much will depend of course on the nature of your building and the constraints you are under financially. The usage of the building can also play a large part in the extent to which you need your contractor to perform.
Communication. Are all aspects of their business geared to providing you with any information you may need, when you need it? Is that communication at the standard you would hope for?
A really thorough proposal is a sign of a well organised business that will be more likely to deliver on its promises. The cheapest price does not always mean the lowest cost. - 30244
