Outdoor window cleaning

atticgirl2003

Hi, I'm not sure this is the right thread but I'm sure it will be moved if not.

I was hoping someone would be able to recommend a brush or whatever on a pole for cleaning windows.
Windows are all at a height where I need to use step ladder.
Decided now a pole would be much safer.

Hope you can help.

57 people have looked at this and no replies. Didn't want to read and run. I think Betterware have a long pole thing if that is what you want but I hose mine when I wash the car or just let a good shower of sleet or snow clean them. The downstairs windows I clean with a microfiber cloth tied round a floor mop and a squeegee to wipe off the water. Washing up liquid and a dash of vinegar in a bucket of warm water is all you need.

I'm lucky to have old sash windows which have hinges to clean the outside while standing inside the flat. An extending pole might be the best option, depending on where you are could getting a window cleaner round to do a intensive clean first help? just to make it easier to maintain?

A basic search came up with lots of options, depends on how high the windows are ofc

Sample option - buy the pole and whatever attachments for the cleaning bithttp://www.windowcleaningstuff.co.uk/103-poles

I can recommend an excellent Pole, he comes round every 4 weeks and cleans my windows for me, much safer than a step ladder

If you want someone to clean your windows try asking at your local newsagents. I saw some working and approached them direct. They come once a month, £8 and they do a good job. Upstairs and down, saves me a load of work!

The outside of my windows haven't been cleaned for years.:o
