Howard & Co Exterior Cleaning – What to Expect.
Thank you for choosing Howard & Co Exterior Cleaning. We want your experience to be smooth, safe, and professional. Here’s everything you need to know about our service.
1. Your First Clean
Your first clean is charged at the standard rate, many window cleaners will charge up too x2 the standard price for your initial clean but not us.
Your First clean will usually need some extra time needed to get your windows up to our high standard.
A few things to note:
If you cancel after your first clean, any future one-off cleans will be charged at double the regular price.
2. What We Can Clean
Our pure water system is excellent for general dirt and grime, but it may not remove:
Builders’ residue (plaster, concrete, paint)
Stickers or adhesives
Stains from chemicals or rust
UV bleaching of window frames
Good news: All our staff are fully trained and fully insured in case of any accidental damage or faults.
If you need a quote for stubborn stains, just let us know!
3. How Often We Visit
We offer visits every 4, 8, or 12 weeks. We ask for a little flexibility due to weather, allowing a week either side of your scheduled clean.
4. Weather Considerations
We don’t clean in heavy rain, but light rain or short showers won’t affect results. If heavy rain prevents your clean, it will roll over to the next working day.
5. Turning Us Away / Access Issues
We make time in our schedule just for you, so reliability is key.
Turning us away the day before is fine with no charge.
Turning us away on the day or cancelling the day of your clean will incur 50% of the clean cost to cover our booking and scheduling.
If gates are locked or our team cannot safely access your property on the day, we will charge 50% and clean only the front of the property.
We cannot return unless a full clean is booked.
