Sometimes we all need a little help in life. While cleaning windows is a pretty simple task; many buildings offer challenges when it comes to cleaning windows. Without the proper experience, cleaning your company’s windows could be a very dangerous task. Instead of trying to take on the job yourself, consider turning to a professional to get the job done. This may cost a bit more but imagine how much more it would cost you if you were injured. Most of us can’t afford to stay away from our jobs for very long.

So, how do you go about choosing the right professional? Here are some of our best tips.

Referrals and Reviews Are Your Best Bet

The best thing you can do when checking out various cleaning professionals is to check out various local businesses. Pay close attention to the comments customers are making and ratings. Look for their reasoning behind their praises and concerns as well because some people like to rate just because they were upset or having a bad day.

While talking to someone you know personally is the best way to go, you may not know anyone else who has had to hire a professional to clean their windows; especially if you are a new business owner. Maybe you haven’t yet met the local business people who would be able to help you along the way. Give it time because you’ll start meeting people naturally as they come to say hello.

Check with the BBB

Now that you have checked out customer reviews and talked to referrals (if you can find them), it’s time to check with the BBB. This is probably the best recommendation you can ever get. Any major concerns that have been filed are going to be noted here but do not worry if the person or company is not listed on the site because that happens when a business is new or has zero complaints.

Make Sure They Have Insurance and Work Safely

Now that you have all that covered, it’s time to get down to the nitty gritty. Before you allow the company to begin the job, make sure that they not only have insurance but that they have the proper safety gear to get the job done. Sure, they may know what they are doing but any professional is going to know that safety is a number one priority so that is a major red flag.

Know the Types of Chemicals Being Used

This goes along with safety, but you want to make sure you know the types of chemicals that are being used on your windows. If you own a company that is very environmentally friendly then you want to make sure the chemicals being used aren’t too harsh. There are many green alternatives and sometimes even if companies do not have those alternatives available; they will oftentimes not have any problem at all using the chemicals that you provide them.
