GAHHHHH!!! Winter window cleaning??? Actually, its not the worst thing you could do...🌧


Leighs Window cleaning melbourne

Hello to our favourite people-our customers!

So, sometimes I hear this from our customers or potential newbies:

‘I’m not getting the windows done because its going to rain this week’ or 'I'll wait until Spring...' OR 'Are you SERIOUS?? (often followed by 'Ok fine, lets do it).

Alright then, fair call. We do live in Melbourne after all. We all know that at any time of the year Melbourne could show us all 4 seasons in one day, but why not enjoy freshening up the house in the (sometimes) colder more risky time of the year. It still looks great and feels really good too.

Pretty much all the time through Winter when we do a window clean, my customers will say 'Wow, that feels better, why didn't I get that done sooner?'. Yep, its often the case.

Actually, its not so much the rain itself that causes dirty windows (rain water is pure and clean) its when there's already dirty glass and the rain smears this or ‘pits’ the dirt, accentuating the dirty appearance of the glass.

Or sometimes the rain washes off half of the dirt, leaving the other half and it becomes more noticeable.

Its not much different with the water we use to wash your windows. As soon as it get to a certain point of being dirty, theres no point continuing to use it. Its easier and a much better final product, to just quickly refresh the bucket of water and continue.

And in fact with our cutting edge filtration technology on our water fed equipment, the water is filtered and altered in such a way that it attracts the dirt away from your glass as we clean (the technical term is 'Ion exchange' which happens when we use a filter and special resin to alter the water particles, making them dirt magnets. Its pretty cool really!).

Also think of when one washes their car, the water just beads off it like water off a ducks back...🦆.

The best solution is to keep the glass clean and free from build up. This way when pure rain water gets on it, it dries clean.

Also take a look at us cleaning other surfaces on your building and the difference this makes. We can pressure wash, manually clean or use this special water for the job to preserve the building facade and make it look great. and dont forget the Gutter clean!

Let us help make your house comfortable and feeling fresh, even in these sometimes gloomier months of the year and we'll all feel a lot happier. Its very, very easy and probably one of the cheapest and quickest ways to uplift your home! I think in my experience you will not regret it👍🏻.

And look, sometimes we get so overly excited at the idea, we start to pull kooky faces while on the job too! Please forgive us 😁.

Make sense? Hope this helps. We love our jobs and love to help! Let me know if you have ANY questions at all. Contact Leigh directly or Helen in the office for a free quote or any and all advice on house care through these Melbourne weather-weird months.

Oh yeah (last thing I promise!) dont forget to ask for your 10% discount when you book 2 services or more from windows cleaning, gutter cleaning and pressure washing in the months of June & July!

Cheers Leigh.
