The Value of Regular Window Cleaning
As part of our ongoing maintenance management, we offer a regular window cleaning service. Ranging from fortnightly cleans both internally and externally to 6 times per year, the schedule will depend on your location and how occupied the property is. You can view our cleaning schedule here.
A regular window cleaning schedule offers value for money to our owners. Ad hoc window cleaning requests are more expensive and can less often be relied upon because they can come at short notice.
Natural light and appearance
Dirty windows can make a significant difference in the appeal of your holiday home. Clean windows look better and enhance the appearance of your home.
Clean windows can brighten your home during winter's short days.
Window longevity
Dirt, mildew and grime can accumulate on window glass year-round which can weaken the glass and cause permanent damage.
In winter, there's the added detriment of salt spray as well depending on the window's location. Any debris that lands on windows can cause etching and damage to the glass which can lead to expensive repairs.
Protecting low-E coatings
Clean windows help low-E coatings and insulation work properly, which can improve your home's heating efficiency.
A low-e coating, or low-emissivity coating, is a thin, transparent layer of metal or metallic oxide applied to glass to reduce heat transfer and improve energy efficiency.
Low-e coatings work by reflecting solar radiation at certain wavelengths, such as UV and infrared radiation, while allowing visible light to pass through. This helps keep homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Low-e coatings also reduce glare from bright sunlight and help preserve the colour of furniture and floors by filtering up to 78% of UV rays.
Air quality
Dirt can build up and make the air stagnant and contaminated.
Property value
Clean windows can show that you care about your home and generate more interest from paying guests or buyers if you’re looking to out your property on the market.
Energy consumption
Less need for artificial light means less energy consumption.
