Hiring Window Cleaners? What You Should Know

Valley Window Care provides fully insured, highly vetted Window Cleaning in Green Bay, WI, and the Fox Valley. Before hiring an exterior cleaner, you must verify they utilize a spot-free pure water system, carry active commercial liability insurance, and guarantee damage-free techniques.

Vetting a Residential Fox Valley Contractor

Inviting a service contractor onto your highly valuable personal property requires establishing trust far beyond a simple price tag.

The exterior maintenance industry in Northeast Wisconsin is saturated with "splash-and-go" amateurs operating out of their trunks. Allowing uninsured workers to lean heavy aluminum ladders against your delicate vinyl siding invites a massive risk of property damage and financial liability.

Critical Questions to Ask Your Window Cleaner

• "Are you fully commercially insured?" Insist on seeing physical proof of general liability insurance. If a contractor shatters an expensive custom pane or falls, you do not want your personal homeowner's policy targeted.
• "Do you use squeegees or pure water?" Elite firms invest in heavy 100% deionized water-fed pole systems that vastly outperform aggressive, scratching squeegees on exterior glass.
• "Do you scrub or brush the window screens?" A professional team will physically remove, dry brush, and meticulously wipe the window screens before reinstalling, rather than simply hosing them down in place.
