[@WindowCleaningBluePrint]

My Window Cleaning Channel

[@marclaw4511]

I do landscape maintenance in the uk and want to go into window cleaning.I wanted to do insides as well as outsides as not many offer this service.You certainly inspired me to consider this idea.Nice clear video,Thanks.

[@MarcusWindowCleaningWagologist]

Your video keeps popping up on suggestions. Your doing quite well for being a self leaner. Your doing just fine. I still watch from time to time even though you don't have time to watch my videos but you are the reason I started helping others on KZbin since then and liked our conversations over the phone. Keep making money.

[@manictv83]

Great job, so for a gas station with three Windows, and swing glass doors, how much should I quote to get my foot in the door. Just don't want to go too low.

[@marcusperez2582]

Thank you sooooo much for your videos. Ive learned a lot and look forward to more. You may not realize it, but your inspiring a new generation of entrepreneur's. " keep on ,kickin ass " !!

[@cmdavies91]

Where do you get your shirts and hats made?

[@cslicer]

Hi! Just a quick question on prospecting. Can you estimate how many "Small mom & POP" shops times does it take to a get a Yes after others say No ? Thank YOu, Carl in Conn.

[@JohnCPageIII]

Just a thought, use a 1 quart squirt bottle tape the head to the bottle it won't come apart and you save pumping time.

[@isidrolozanojr.3809]

Keith thanks for all the good window cleaning information that you give us.. I'm new to this business but I have learned a lot from seeing your videos.. thanks

[@corbybiddle1922]

How do you balance landscaping and window cleaning? Does one take priority?

[@Mittenmade85]

Good question?

[@hectordiaz6392]

I've been having that question ever since I started watching his videos 2 months ago I watch 3 vids a day real inspiration and really informative

[@brendathurston3873]

I'm a window cleaner I do scaffol work, I worked the four Seasons in San Francisco, Oakland court house chair work, Lakeside scaffol work in Oakland by Lake Merritt. I'm currently laid off right now due to lack of work.

[@marissamoseisley6207]

Do you wash windows in the winter ? Just curious

[@keith-kalfas]

+Marissa Medina yes

[@jeremyrobinson5607]

Very cool my friend!! I appreciate what you have created and fostered and also the personality you have through it all! Happy Easter my man :-) keep posting!! You are inspiring and motivating!

[@keith-kalfas]

Thanks Jeremy, you too bro.

[@ccwindowcleaningllc.4706]

nice, looks exactly like the olive garden I do here in San diego

[@guaranteedclean3178]

Great videos Keith and don't worry about your language bro. Words are words and nothing more. Do some more window cleaning vids, they are very helpful. I'm in MI also and have owned a janitorial company for 8 years and am branching off to more commercial, storefront and resi window jobs. Keep up the great vids and don't worry about the winers.

[@mikew2095]

I do like watching your videos Keith, you’re a lovely man. especially your old videos where the innocence and early eagerness is there with you just starting. Good on ya fella 🤜🤛

[@keith-kalfas]

💪

[@jeffyboi9959]

Great videos! Why do you prefer residential over commercial?

[@alexkassebaumgolf]

more money pound for pound

[@jblock3697]

Are the unger squeegees any good?

[@keith-kalfas]

there good, but in my personal opinion, they don't compare to the Ettore or Sorbo.

[@jblock3697]

What do you use when it's cold out so the water doesn't freeze on windows?

[@ndleinahaystack]

Michigan Mowing put a little alcohol in the water... that usually works and it's cheap. Not too much because then you'll start to smell the alcohol.

[@outshineservices]

The Landscaping Employee Trap Check out the new Moerman squeegee.

[@donabraham7164]

Is that a tool belt or a window cleaning service belt?

[@austinjacob7210]

Keith said in the video window he uses an ErgoTec double holster , a window cleaner's tool belt, and a pulex hip bucket. goo.gl/abeUmE - Tool belt goo.gl/Jr3th2 - ErgoTec Double Holster goo.gl/H0r67u - Pulex Hip Bucket Don, if you're interested in window cleaning, I would finish watching this video. He explains quite a bit and provides interesting tips. The equipment explanation starts at about 9:00.

[@keith-kalfas]

Austin Jacob man thanks alot. I'm going to be Making many more window cleaning videos.... explaining some of the jacked up situations you can get caught up in... Lol. Or should I keep the surprises a secret?

[@austinjacob7210]

The Landscaping Employee Trap KEEP MAKING VIDEOS, I like the window cleaning videos quite a bit, keep em coming and don't stop! Just kidding, appreciate it though man

[@landscaperking]

Awesome video as always Keith! You always have some cool tip to use on each job! Keep the videos coming and surprise us with new stuff!

[@coryh8391]

How would you charge for a 2nd floor home that you can get to once you go up on a ladder. Ladder access up and then walk on a 4ft ledge to access 2nd floor windows. Is that considered 2nd flr pric

[@keith-kalfas]

probably x2

[@TheBigsteely101]

The Landscaping Employee Trap roger that. I just charged the customer 5 min ago. I charged as a 2nd storey pricing (x2) and the customer had no issues and was happy with the service. Thanks for sharing your experience. Only this week, following watching your videos have I started charging by the window pane. Its working well. You giv

[@keitht.2727]

Dig your videos Keith. I like your hustle-game. With regard to standing on booths, etc. I bring drop cloths to cover where my feet go, and to reduce drip wipe-ups. Recently, I've switched to light tan full-size flat sheets, particularly for residential as they're lighter and don't knock stuff over the same way a heavy drop-cloth would. Plus they always looks clean. I wash them with my towels.

[@mantasxxa]

Hi Keith, have a look for wagtail window cleaning tools., might make some difference to your speed at the end of the day. Thats what i use, very versatile tool.

[@keith-kalfas]

Yeah man that wake tail looks badass I'm going to have to get one as soon as possible

[@ericfarris8225]

where do you get your scrubbers and squeegees? I've been looking for the swivel heads but can only find the non-swivel,

[@timwaffel1996]

you have no idea how much I enjoy your videos! thanks allot ! from a window cleaner in the netherlands!

[@keith-kalfas]

+Michel de berg thanks man. I really really appreciate it

[@vladbajenaru8653]

here's several things to think about before you setup a cleaning business are you likely to get support from you spouse? Are you someone who is self-motivated? Will you carry out your plan? Do you have the money to start? (I learned these and why they work from Gabs Cleaner Blueprint website )

[@eperez112178]

Love the vids, what about picture frames?

[@austinjacob7210]

Great video Keith, what I've been waiting for.

[@tonytignignello3912]

You r right dude. But u could of sold or lease to own the small stores. That person might have become your best manager. I did that with a retired guy and now I have the best trainer and manager. I gave option to buy for 25k or50 percent profit lease for two years. Still got my 25k and still have the stores. Now he works for me and I lease for again. Maybe this new lease will become my next manager. Remember. We don't need to manager everything. That's what our managers are paid to do. Did you know ettore window tools costomer service is still run by the family daughter. Do u think she worries about management. Living the dream. Keep it up.

[@cslicer]

PS: The footage @ 7:27. That mirror POPS man !!!!!

[@adamhofstetter9312]

Bushfields Landscape Design, LLC. Just wanted to say thank you so much! You have helped me see just how far we can take this business from all your videos!

[@keith-kalfas]

Awesome keep going dont stop!

[@srcetme]

like your vids Keith. you make me question why i dont do the things im great at for myself.

[@Danster82]

lambs wool make good dusters as well.

[@claudefenner6847]

You guys really need to get hold of SCRIMS they make life so much easier. Glass microfibres are good for polishing but nothing beats the old scrim. Try them you will never regret it.

[@keith-kalfas]

for sure. I seen them, I'm going to order one now. thanks dude.

[@jcwarrior3166]

How often do you go to the places like restaurants, retail store and residential properties. Don't do this yet but I'm looking into it after watching your videos. God bless your family and your business.

[@keith-kalfas]

+Aloha Fruit Cups & More maybe only 5% of my Window Cleaning business is commercial. So not very often

[@DanKakkoii]

Great Video! Btw those are some proper buttons on that shirt! good job on those buttons!

[@keith-kalfas]

[@jamesvillegas877]

Great video. Thanks something simple yet not too easy to start. But its possible because it not expensive to start. Happy st Patrick's day also. :)

[@Lpoint5]

You the man Keith! Thanks for the video

[@spencer4449]

Thank You. We have a start up cleaning business in alabama but can get no where near $45-$100/hr profit. How are you selling these numbers?

[@keith-kalfas]

+Spencer this is an old video ...the prices have gone way up since then ... You have to get your phone ringing so much that you only tale 1 out of 20 requests for jobs

[@spencer4449]

Landscaping Employee Trap & Window Cleaning. Any particular type of establishment you go for/prefer? any advice you would give to drive that kind of business to up an comers outside of quality work, etc

[@Mittenmade85]

I'm sure Michigan's economy is much stronger than Alabama's since all the industries in the Detroit area!

[@vinnycaruso8954]

thanks for all the vids. very helpful. when you say $1 per blind, is that for each panel, or completely individually?

[@SaadKhan-xb8un]

+Vinny Caruso if he was making $1 per blind he would be making like $1000 /hr lol

[@Zacatec831]

Great video and quik tips.good job man

[@andyaguirre9370]

lol the wiggle at the end with your squeegee

[@garybartell7195]

How do you do both Landscaping and windows and how the hell when you first got started did all your Landscaping by yourself how many hours did it take it took me 15 hours to do this cleanup I did today four four hundred bucks and it should have been a thousand anyways learning a lot from your KZbin videos

[@bradbrewster8934]

wow! $4 per window. that's residential pricing. drop down to $2 per window, work faster and you can gain a larger volume of customers.

[@bradbrewster8934]

+Tony Martin you are right tony. after following Keith's and others videos for a while now I'm realizing that I've been selling myself short and not valuing my own work high enough. I am a window cleaner and have recently started raising my prices. I'm tired of working my self to the bone for OK pay and just to keep customers for fear of them going with the cheap bucket Bob.

[@bradbrewster8934]

+brad brewster just today I did a $700 commercial account in 4 1/2 hours. the customer is happy and I am certainly happy and am changing my awareness of doing business.

I always get the frog legs when I'm there. Awesome video & awesome place to eat !!!!!!!!

[@keith-kalfas]

haha... So we're neighbors then. awesome. Had frog legs only once.

[@frankbryant5652]

You make my day

[@isnassets]

Ya I just lost my job and one of my friends told me to start cleaning windows and I just found your channel. Awesome channel. Should I get insured and bonded before I get started?

[@keith-kalfas]

+Shawn Shepherd start...and then immediately reinvest the money into insurance with the profits. Just my opinion. Not giving advice.

[@Mittenmade85]

Good luck getting bonded it's some serious coin!

[@aslawnscapes1253]

You the man Keith

[@keith-kalfas]

Thanks dude

[@davidwozniak4691]

Yeah! Keep KICKING ASS DUDE!!

[@STEVIE1959]

from an old timer be aware you are wearing your back out, just like a pro ball player, get jobs your hired help can do, pay them well so they want to stay, use your abilities to keep them busy

[@keith-kalfas]

Absolutely. .. on my way to doing that now. increasing clientele and constantly raising prices until I can be completely. .hands off

[@davidbrotaneka8466]

im also in this business and that thought lurks after me all day long

[@lawncarelife7214]

been watching you for some time now Keith. You are definitely hungry. you will reach your summit in no time. landscaping, window cleaning time will definitely reward you for determination and focus. you will wake up on the side of cliff in your squirrel suit sooner than you think.

[@keith-kalfas]

Lawn Care Life hahaha Squirrel suit.. yes man thanks

[@sudsupjanitorial5986]

This just doesn't convince me, it sounds like is too cheap $4.00 a window? It doesn't make sense how many windows and mirrors do you have to do just to make 300.00 in a day like the whole strip mall and it has to a big mall.

[@keith-kalfas]

Oh for sure. I agree with you 100. I made this video like 5 years ago.

[@No2Ryder]

Great vid!

[@keith-kalfas]

[@BrantleyK2000]

This guy wants to see people win

[@ahbalone]

Your rubber must not last long, with all that dry glass you squeak your way over. Yikes! But hey, I enjoy your vids and for sure everybody needs to charge like you do!

[@oiyabastard7275]

He doesn't make money window cleaning he makes money on making window cleaning videos and getting clicks

[@BlightBreedOfficial]

oiyabastard You think so? Highly doubtful. He doesn’t get a huge amount of views and his sub count is fairly low. Most people make around $3 per 1000 views. Unless he’s getting over a million views on each video he uploads, he is not going to make any sort of living off of the videos. He does the videos out of pure enjoyment, and wanting to help other people with tips and getting started up. He makes the money with his company.

[@anthonydoe9751]

If you gotta tap go back to a 18" bud

[@hondaman1100]

I am a minister and Don't curse period!!

[@Mittenmade85]

Greg tritle then go somewhere else and tell them how to live their lives don't come on KZbin channels telling people they need to clean up their act that's a full-out Christian doesn't know how to live their life but wants to tell everyone else what to do!

[@736736736736]

My nards? never heard of them.

[@BolieProServices]

u should send me window cleaning stuff. serious

[@IntegrityCleaning]

Window cleaning can be hard lol

[@nantucketjeep]

when do you find the fucking time ,"dude!!!

[@hondaman1100]

U make excellent videos but no need for vulgar speech !!!

[@keith-kalfas]

I totally agree with you.

[@unknown1671]

Vulgar Speech is in reality termed as "Strong Language". Greg.... because you keep tryin to tell or man here how to fit your mold.... let me be my own man and school you on the reality of "Strong Language". One of our rights is "The right to bare arms." Did it ever occur to you that "Strong Language" is a form of arm that we have a right to bare. Now granted, just like firearms... "Strong Language" should not be used around children, and it shouldn't be used to harm someone unless you are attempting to protect yourself...... But if our man who owns the youtube channel and giving out advise that just helped me make a $180 sale today to feed my family..... Honestly, let up with the "Trying to tell the man how he can and cannot express himself on his own videos. "The Landscaping".... ant nothing wrong with you're words and your expression.... don't put on a front just to keep "Greg" happy.

[@JB-qz1tz]

Greg tritle You do realize that all language is a man made product basically right? Literally all the words we use have been made up by men/women. Think about that? Your complaining because he may have used a word that society deemed "foul" or "disrespectful" but yet those words were just made up by somebody. If your upset because of something manmade then don't whine about use of language because it's pointless instead complain or do something about countries dumping toxic waste into the oceans and much more serious ... ( oh and here comes another manmade word ... are you ready? ) shit. Get over yourself this guy is giving phenomenal advice and is clearly a great dude and your gonna pick at how he talks. People like you are what's wrong with society. Point blank. Sorry for the rant this kinda shit just pisses me off.

[@jcastro91235]

Now I bet you charge a lot more it’s been ) years si ce this video

Lots more. Haha.

He said he has an 80 dollar minimum to show up and work at all. This job takes a little over two and a half hours, and at 45 dollars an hour that is just over 100 dollars. It's not an 80 dollar an hour minimum, it's an 80 dollar job minimum.
