Ladders against a semi's front wall, a bucket of soapy water, a chamois and a lot of streaks: that used to be how windows were cleaned. A water-fed pole changes the whole job. Purified water, with its dissolved minerals removed, is pumped up a long pole to a soft brush. Dirt is scrubbed loose and rinsed off in one pass, and the glass is left to dry naturally, without the spots tap water leaves.
We clean house windows in Gedling at ground, first and second floor level, all from the ground. Frames and sills are rinsed too. Conservatories and skylights can be included, with roof glass priced by quote, and we clean shop and office windows on request. If your car glass is smeary and dazzling in low sun, it can be cleaned inside and out at the same visit. Houses and businesses are quoted on size and access, and car glass starts at £20.
Semis, upstairs bays and wet weather: windows in Gedling
In the 2 Census 2021 neighbourhoods (MSOAs) closest to the centre of Gedling, semi-detached homes make up 45.3% of housing and detached homes 33.2%. Both usually mean windows on more than one storey, often a bay at the front, French doors or a conservatory at the back and side windows reached down a narrow path. Terraces, at 12.7% of those neighbourhoods, and flats, at 8.9%, are less common. For two-storey glass, reaching from the ground is far safer and quicker than setting a ladder on a sloping drive or flower bed.
Rain arrives on 143 days a year here, and while it wets the glass it does not clean it. Raindrops collect dust and pollen and dry as faint circles. Pure water leaves nothing behind, so the result holds up better between cleans. Green space such as Gedling Country Park is close to many homes, too, and windows facing trees catch more pollen and sap through spring.

Window rounds in Gedling and the NG4 neighbourhoods around it
We clean windows in Gedling and in Carlton, Arnold, Netherfield, Mapperley, Colwick, Burton Joyce and Stoke Bardolph, all within or close to the NG4 postcode district. Semi-detached houses usually have one side path, so leaving that gate unlocked lets us reach the back. For terraces, rear access may be through a shared passage. The van carries its own purified water and power, so nothing is needed from your house. We park close by on the drive or road, near recognisable spots such as All Hallows Church if that helps you give directions.

Keeping glass clear in a Gedling home
Book every four to eight weeks, a little more often if your house faces trees or a busy road. Before the first clean, trim back any plants touching the frames and clear the ground beneath windows of pots, bins and garden furniture. Let us know if any windows have failed seals or loose beading, so we can take care around them.
Do not cancel for drizzle; pure water cleaning works in light rain. Gusty days are another matter, as wind makes the pole harder to control, and we may suggest a different date. In spring, when pollen is heavy, consider shortening the gap between cleans.

Window Cleaning in Gedling: Questions
Yes. The water-fed pole reaches first and second storey windows from the ground, including those above a bay roof. We need to stand reasonably close to the wall below, so tell us about anything in the way, such as a greenhouse or tall hedge. Very high or unusually set windows may need a quick look before we confirm.
No, as long as we can get round the property. Leave side gates unlocked, keep pets indoors and let us know of anything unusual, such as a broken latch or a window that is propped open. We will let you know when the visit is done. If we cannot get access, we will contact you rather than skip part of the house.
Frames and sills are rinsed during each clean, which removes the dust and grime that would otherwise wash back onto the glass. Heavily stained frames, such as those with green algae or black mould along the edges, may need extra work. Mention it when you book so we can allow the time.
