Coming into your office's parking lot each day, you may have started to realize that the windows seem dull and require some cleansing. Hiring window cleaners isn't something that seems difficult, but these inquiries ensure your windows sparkle, your budget is respected and work continues.

Can You Come Saturday?

Window washers should generally  come at a time that will reduce distraction for employees. For many businesses, that means washing should happen on Saturdays, Sundays and other days when personnel numbers in the building are very low. This will allow the commercial window cleaners to work without interference or interactions with too many people, and some of your workers will never even know washers were there.

Are Full Cleaning Packages Required?

Your consultation with a professional washing company will likely end with a cleaning package estimate. This financial figure could be greater than what you've budgeted, but there's not yet cause for worry. Ask about the likelihood of removing some items from the overall project. For example, if the window cleaning company would like to wash both the outside and inside of your building's windows, you might decline interior window cleaning for a while. If the estimate includes a monthly appointment, you may space that out to two months between visits.

Which Insurance is Carried?

If any window washers are hurt, insurance will become relevant. The washing company is typically going to insure their own employees, but if they're using freelancers or extra help, the insurance may be less encompassing and your own company's insurance could be involved. These insurance issues must be detailed and discussed before washing happens.

Are You Up for Something Unusual?

In 2016, a team of commercial window washers dressed up as superheros when cleaning the children's ward windows of a hospital. While you might think you'll never need this level of creativity from a team washing your own windows, ask about special, unique services which a window cleaning company might perform.

Are There Discounts?

All kinds of bill-lowering discounts exist. You might be able to contract a multi-year deal with commercial window cleaners that will bring with it a substantial discount, for instance. You might have a referral discount. Many company owners forget to ask, but always seeking a deal can mean you're more likely to strike one that keeps cleaning costs down.

A regular, ongoing relationship with commercial window cleaning experts is part of a solid building maintenance plan. Remember to include these professionals when considering ways of beautifying and caring for your building.
