Window Cleaning | Everything You Need And How I Charge

[@peterwilder752]

Worked for a window cleaning company for 9 months or so. Its refreshing to see the exact same equipment used in this video

[@AustinDavis24]

Thats awesome!

[@SenorJuan2023]

@@AustinDavis24 Do you get paid in cash and/or square/stripe, etc.?

[@AustinDavis24]

@SenorJuan2023 stripe!

[@windowcleanersofbrandon]

Nobody corrected it yet. Ettore is pronounced Et-tore-A .. Great content! Most pressure washers i know avoid window cleaning because they either say it wont pay $150/hr or claim their house wash cleaned the windows. As you said though its can be quick and simple to add after a house wash. Window screen cleaning is the next simple add on.

[@Corryoncleaning]

Love your videos. Window cleaning techniques are so different in the U.K. especially trad cleaning.

[@zeke9123]

Your channel is a Godsend!

[@Grinfas]

First time cleaningis always done traditionally. Water fed pole only for maintenance cleaning

[@GKsWindowCleaning]

Awesome video! I would definitely recommend you get the Ettore side holster. It makes it so much easier to hold towels/steel wool.

[@scottdodson7122]

What about the screens if they come off from the inside do you take them off or the customer

[@alcha93]

I just found out WCR is a couple cities away from me. Got me a little exited knowing i have such a great resorce in my area.

[@windowcleaner]

Hello! :)

[@ktpowerwashing]

Not a great resource....the BEST resource

[@ponderanceofagravedigger2564]

Great video. Thank you. So it's 10 to 12 bucks per window even if you don't do the inside?

[@AustinDavis24]

It’s $10-$12 per window exterior. I charge $20 per window for interior and exterior.

[@ponderanceofagravedigger2564]

@@AustinDavis24 thank you!!

[@ktpowerwashing]

You would have gotten a .00 tds reading if you would have rinsed the meter cup with the filtered water 1 or 2 quick times. You already know this, Im mainly assuring viewers that the tds results could have been better if you really wanted to emphasize that but like you said

[@g.shultz2512]

Great vid Austin. Very helpful. Kind of off topic question, where do you get your shirts made? Is there a good online company you can recommend, or do you order yours from a local business?

[@marwanspilotcarservice]

Austin us badd ass good dude I'm getting into pressure washing and watching his videos is super cool he has alot of knowledge and super professional..he definitely helped me understand alot about the industry which is really nice of him..good luck hopefully your business expand tremendously and you have success

[@windowcleaner]

Great video sir! Lots of great info!!

[@AustinDavis24]

Thanks! Would love to have y’all as a sponsor.

[@rizkisetia6538]

Thank you for information, keep sharing!!! Love it!

[@BrandonJWebb]

Another Life Lesson from yours truly Austin Davis lol Thanks Bro

[@markahdz]

What kind of filters do you use, can you make a video on the setup or share what products on the water filtering you use ? thank you

[@sctoyota8705]

So how would you price interior and exterior windows?

[@BrandonJWebb]

When you come across this again can you make a video about how you remove calcium from brick or concrete by a pool. I had such an issue with it this weekend and couldn't get it done right.

[@TexasWatchman]

That is called Efflorescence and its tough to get rid of. Some use media blasting (fastest), but most use Efflo Remover.

[@ritmolatino1627]

the best for efflorence is spry it with strong vinegar, and problem fixed

[@scottpratson7766]

I wish I just did window cleaning looking back. Where do you keep your equipment on that skid?? Mine takes up all the space on my truck.

[@AustinDavis24]

Yea it gets pretty tight!! Back seat usually for window crap

[@bobcole612]

I’m getting ready to bid 250 windows as an add-on to a post-construction cleanup on a 1 story apartment complex. I hope I land it, because it essentially doubles the billing on a job site I’m already at. I’m going to order the supplies from WCR, but I don’t have a water filtration system yet. Can I use distilled water until I can get a DI or RO filter system?

[@Marty-zd2lm]

So how do you price out a bank of like 8’ 4 panel sliders? Florida has sliders on almost every home 😊. Have a great day

[@AustinDavis24]

Usually big windows I will count as two

[@isaiahdenman6747]

great video. FYI. Your mic volume went way down during the part when you were at the window.

[@AustinDavis24]

Yea my bad.

[@thewindowcleaner812]

Great video, however I would practice fanning more and pull the screens, you are only cleaning half the window.

[@jayvera4415]

How do you remove sealant stains from when the pavers were stripped there was a lot of residue left on windows?

[@MichaelSmith-ob9yg]

Do you charge more for large picture windows? And would it be out of line to ask the customer to remove all screens prior to your arrival so you don’t risk damaging them?

[@kamwilliams5876]

what about the water fed pole system and supplies?, which one do you use or recommend?

[@jacobrinker8238]

how do you go about screens?

I’m trying to start my business up out here in Hawaii! But idk what kind of chemicals and what not to use for anything I just bought a new pressure washer and that’s it pretty much broke now! Any tips to help me out? Such as equipment and what not? Would be sick Thanks

[@AustinDavis24]

Start watching KZbin videos!!! Window cleaning is cheap to get into and easy to get clients. I would start there and small pressure washing jobs. Don’t worry about all the chemicals for now

[@dannyjets]

@@AustinDavis24 yeah I wanna try get into the soft washing cause how easy it looks just spray wait and then wash off but idk how I been trying to watch videos but they don’t really show how to actually put the chemicals together or actually show what kind of equipment to use or all that.

[@cortneybunge359]

When you do outside windows do you remove screen?

[@braydennaughton8689]

your squeegee lines are overlapping a bunch. always try to minimize running squeegee over dry window as much as possible as this will round your rubber edges like 10x faster. resulting in steaks left behind. just s tip but then again I've only been doing windows for 4 months now so if I am wrong , tell me why

[@AustinDavis24]

I never have issues with it. If I see lines. Simple whip with the towel and it’s off. Pretty small window too

[@steeldrumsolace]

Thank you for your videos, they've been really helpful as I just started my business a couple months ago. I just got my first commercial client with 20 some odd locations! I am wondering since there's a lit of driving between sites, is it customary to charge for transportation or just for coming out to a site? I charge by the window pane and not hourly. Thanks!

[@ritmolatino1627]

your answer should be in your own business plan dude.

[@AustinDavis24]

I would not add drive time as a line item in the bid. I would instead just build it into your estimate. If you charge $13 per window, for example, charge $14. Up to you.

[@Newbecollector]

Great video Austin

Glad you enjoyed it

Yes. We throw them in the washing machine.

Your best bet is to wash your rags and towels in a dye free/fragrance free laundry detergent.

Do you get asked to remove screens? If so what's the charge for that?

[@JohnS1212]

I generally direct the customer to remove the screens. It is so easy to damage one or more screens at a house. I have great insurance but I don't want to have to use it.

[@octaviodelgado48]

How much for cleaning the screens

do you just get one size of mop/ scrubber?

you did about 50% of the windows because u disregarded the ones with the screens? i’m confused just wanna know how u go about that because screens are easy to damage and really annoying to work with

@AustinDavis24 Look into the S technique. Much more efficient way to use your squeegee... i use your technique when i use an extension pole, its better than straight pulls. But the S technique is the way on glass you can reach.
