Feeling guilty for cancelling the window cleaner to save money

Ive had the same window cleaner for the past 20 years also . Hard one to let them go but its 12 rips into your fund not his . Try to half his visits before you let them go . they've got to feed the kids too . My cleaner is a decent family man . Often his son or sister also on the round , they charge £12 for a 3 bed semi front and back . Often use my ladders at the back . Rather than walk around with theirs . I make sure they foot the ladders when on the decking . (even when I'm not there ) I trust him around my property staring through my windows and that's important

Thanks for your replies!
The increase from 10 to 12 isn't really the problem, as I have been thinking on cancelling for a while now.
Thanks for the advice, I think the fairest thing is for him to come every 2 months, so the relationship is still there and potential to increase back to monthly in the future2
