Two jobs, one visit: windows and solar panels in Chippenham

A water-fed pole that reaches 45ft is useful for more than just windows. On a recent quarterly clean in Chippenham, the same visit covered the windows and a maintenance clean on the solar panels ,both reachable from the ground, without needing to book a separate call-out for the roof.
Why doing both together makes sense
Solar panels benefit from the same kind of regular attention as windows: a light clean every so often stops dust and grime building up into something that actually affects how well the panels perform. If the pole's already up there for the windows, it's a natural point to give the panels the same treatment, rather than treating them as a separate job that never quite gets booked in.
Reading the situation on site
Not every part of a property gets the same finish. On this visit, a rear door frame had unfinished wood, which meant the usual pure-water pole method wasn't right for it, windows with unfinished wooden frames, sometimes suffer with water marks on the glass. So Instead, that section was dried by hand with a squeegee, the traditional way. It's not something most windows need, but knowing when a property calls for it, rather than defaulting to the same method everywhere, is part of doing the job properly.
Keeping it on a schedule
This property is on a quarterly clean, which works out cheaper over a year than monthly or bimonthly visits while still keeping windows and panels looked after properly rather than left to build up. I offer monthly, bimonthly, quarterly and triannual regularities, so it's straightforward to fit a schedule to how a property's actually used.
Covering Chippenham and the surrounding area
I clean windows, solar panels, conservatory roofs, gutters and fascias across Chippenham, Calne, Malmesbury, Tetbury, Batheaston, Bathford and the villages between. If your solar panels haven't had any attention in a while, or you'd like windows and panels done together in one visit, send me a photo and I'll get back to you with a straightforward quote.
