Once a fortnight and they are brilliant ! �2.50 to do all the front windows (largish house with big windows, both upstairs and downstairs) plus the glazed front door. They will happily come back later (or a week later) for their money and have been known to help out some of my elderly neighbours with a bit of shopping and diy ! Every so often I get them to do the rear of the house (but as that is away from the sun, the trees and the road traffic, it doesn't need doing very often).

genuine answer here, as its a bone of contention! our window cleaner comes once a month without fail, charges �14 a time - and don't even go up a ladder anymore, just puts a 'squiggish' thing on the end of a stick to reach the top windows, which I think is all about 'health and safety' - window cleaners can't apparently go up ladders anymore! trouble is I don't want to go up the ladder and do it either but I thougt that was what we were paying him for???

Once a month, climbs ladders, picks up bits and bobs that end up in the gutter pipes and charges �7 for the lot. It�s a team of three. The chap that runs the team is lovely. He�s young and it pleases me when he brings his 3 year old daughter around in the evenings to collect his payment. They�re always so happy. I�m also pleased to see young people carve a niche of employment for themselves. He, his wife, and daughter have even come to church every now and then. Really lovely people and an asset to our community.
He even kindly did some complex and intricate cleaning of some stained glass last year for us and wouldn�t take tuppence for it!
Oh, and I�m shocked to hear about someone paying �14. In all honesty, I�ve always felt we should be charged �14-20 due to height and size. But he charges everyone the same. (and hopefully makes it up in volume!)
We�re very fortunate!
