What We Offer
Built For Your Property
If you’re in a Glasgow tenement, the windows in your shared stairwell belong to the building as a whole, not to any one flat — and cleaning them properly means dealing with the factor, not just showing up.
🏢
Factor Liaison
We coordinate timing and access directly, so you never have to chase anyone.
🪟
Sash Frame Care
No forcing stuck sashes or leaning weight on old putty lines.
🧾
Single Invoice
One invoice for the whole close, not chased flat by flat.
The Details
Everything You Need To Know

Factor-arranged jobs live or die on communication. The biggest complaint we hear about previous cleaners isn’t the work itself — it’s nobody telling residents when someone’s coming, or the invoice landing on the wrong desk. We treat that part of the job as seriously as the actual cleaning.
- We contact the factor directly: Not left to a flat owner to coordinate everyone.
- Advance notice to residents: Scheduled well ahead, not a surprise knock.
- One invoice: Sent to the factor or managing owner, not split flat by flat.
- Careful with original features: No forcing old sashes or leaning on brittle putty.
If owners self-manage instead of using a factor, that’s fine — we’ll deal with whoever coordinates the building and invoice however works for your arrangement.

FAQ
Common Questions
Do you need factor permission to clean close windows?
If it’s just your own flat’s exterior windows, no. Shared stairwell/close windows usually need factor sign-off or owner agreement — we’re happy to liaise directly.
How do you invoice factor-arranged jobs?
One invoice for the whole close or contract, sent directly to the factor or managing owner.
How often are close windows usually cleaned?
Twice a year is typical for most Glasgow tenement closes, arranged in advance so residents know when to expect it.
What if our building doesn’t have a factor?
We’re happy to deal directly with whoever self-manages the building — often a resident owner — and invoice however works for that arrangement.
Will you damage our original sash windows?
No — we don’t force stuck sashes or lean weight on old putty lines. If a frame is already in poor condition, we’ll tell you rather than push through it.
Can you reach all floors of a tenement close?
Yes — our water-fed pole system reaches up to 4 storeys, covering the full height of most Glasgow tenement closes without ladders.
