Depending on your building’s structure and height, there are various methods of high rise window cleaning solutions available, including abseil window cleaning, cradle cleaning, cherry pickers and water-fed poles.
When it comes to the cost of your high rise window clean, there are a number of factors that determine the quote as there’s not a one-size-fits-all policy for pricing. Instead, quotations are tailored to suit the unique needs of the building, the window cleaning method and your business.
During this article we will discuss the main factors to consider when it comes to the cost of high rise window cleaning.
The Size And Structure Of Your High Rise Building
The height and structure of your high rise building is a major factor which will affect how much the clean will cost. If your building has a higher number of floors then there inevitably will be more windows to clean and the price will reflect this.
Water-fed poles would typically be used on a high rise building that has seven or less floors, however if your high rise exceeds this, then other methods would have to be considered. A site survey by a professional team would need to be carried out to determine which method is best for your building.
If your high rise building has more than seven floors, then an abseil window clean, cradle cleaning or cherry picker would have to be used. These methods include more machinery and the use of safety equipment which would also affect the price.
The Location Of Your High Rise Building
Where your high rise building is located will make a difference to how often it will need to be cleaned. If you’re situated in a large City such as London, they will need to be done more frequently due to the levels of pollution, dust and dirt in the atmosphere.
This also applies if your high rise is located close to busy roads or high levels of traffic. However, if your high rise building is situated in a small town or village, grime won’t build up as quickly and they won’t need cleaning as often.
What Is The Most Cost-Effective Method Of High Rise Window Cleaning?
The most straightforward and cost-effective method of high rise window cleaning is using water-fed poles. Essentially doing what it says on the tin, a water-fed pole cleans buildings exteriors, windows and structures with a careful balance of filtered water which is fed through a high-reaching pole.
With a reach of over 82 feet, water-fed pole high rise window cleaning can provide effective cleaning to several buildings up to 7 floors, whilst the window cleaning operatives work from the ground level at all times.
How To Manage The Costs Of Your High Rise Window Cleaning
In conclusion, unlike other services, there’s no fixed pricing for high rise window cleaning. Factors such as the height and structure of your building, how many windows it has, where it is located, how frequently it will need cleaning and the type of high rise window cleaning method is used will determine how much it costs.
In the beginning, a reputable commercial high rise window cleaning team should carry out a site inspection to check for general access, anchor points, condition, equipment etc.
