- We quoted a home a few weeks ago, over the phone for a client. You get to see how close I was based off of two photos the client had sent me for the window cleaning quote. Then go inside the home with Reanna as she walks you through some very important techniques and tips.

Now that’s how you shoot videos from now on
Lol
🤗👍👍👍👍👍
Great job
Thanks man! Really appreciate that 😎
Wow 2nd Grand Slam
Love how both walk thru the job and explain all the “ small things” that you don’t see in other videos from quote to finish
Great job
Great video my friends, big house, lots of windows. Challenging ladder work and pole work, my kind of house. I totally agree on documenting and keeping the customer informed, besides I think it builds a great repore between you and your customer. Guys, I can't tell you how much I love your videos. It's always a pleasure.
Absolutely! Man those windows dont look that dirty in some of the video....but wow were they awful. Took a ton of scrubbing.
Thanks man, means a ton to us !
Raport..
You guys should do a video on the different types of glass that you clean and how each one if different from a cleaning perspective.
Awesome job I love this video you both are awesome keep up the great work and I love how REANNA explained everything that she was doing she is amazing
Thank you! Reanna did and always does an amazing job !
I have to say after watching many videos of window cleaning on how easy it can look, this one is a reality check and makes me feel that I am not far off the mark in regards issues that can arise and considerations to make. Thanks Guys
You guys are fantastic and inspiring. I'm reopening my window cleaning business this spring/summer and watching all of your videos seems to me like the best education out there. Thank you very sincerely.
couldn't be more well explained than that. great work
We try our very best to explain as much as we can in these style of videos. Happy it has helped.
That's one excellent training video. I've been window cleaning for 21 years and I love the tips from you guys.
Just began watching your channel, this is a good vid because its simple and to the point and that's how all vids should be. Good Job....
Good job Reanna!!
You guys are the highlight of my Wednesdays!
Wow thanks man! We really appreciate all the support 😎
hello, I had to take a min and stop this vid for a sec and say I just got a window cleaning job myself a few weeks ago and I try my best to find ways to better myself knowing what I need to work on I take my work belt home and clean my windows to practice. seeing as tho I'm the noob and kinda slow everyone knows I'm new and still learning the ropes so far up to 5:43 this vid is what I been looking for in trying to learn more techniques and finding ways to be better and faster. I just want to thank you for the helping video for people who are also new to this line of work.
and a new sub :)
Thanks
Good idea on starting on the bottom. I'll do that with my wife now. Also, we need to give a price for windows only. My wife starting working with this year. Loving it.
That's awesome! We wish you both all the best ! If we can help please let us know 😀
Awesome job guys it can definitely be tricky quoting jobs over the phone but luckily for me I kind of have that down to a science I actually don't do in person quotes unless they're close by or post Construction or big commercial. It comes down to ultimately setting standards and qualifying the customers and setting expectations I believe. I started doing over the phone quotes the beginning of this year and not have ran into any particular problems obviously some are under or over but pretty spot on-James
Thanks man!
How have you been James?
@@LukeTheWindowCleaner I've been really good just rising and grinding LOL
11:45 look at her professionalism she taps the Squeegee on the ledge which is a small ledge so she doesn’t drip water. Awesome job
Thank man!
That was awesome!!! Thanks to the both of you for the great video.
Thank you for watching ! Appreciate all the support 😎
Very informative interior work demonstration and explanation. Thank you.
👍 I really enjoyed this video
08:00 oh and *help the blinds will pulling them up*, so many blinds are only screwed to drywall loosely
Nice work peeps
We do use google maps it works wonders! Congratulations on your new accounts and hey rise and grind! That’s a T-Shirt lol 😂 Great video as always
Something else i do and noticed at the end of the video is mineral deposits and removal/notifying the customer.
I always explain verbally when i walk around the property with them what mineral deposits are and the difference between them and regular dirt. I will put mineral deposit remover in my bucket but if it's still there and you would it removed afterwards it is a seperste price and service altogether because that's glass restoration and not a regular clean.
That's great news about the commercial cleaning account!!! 😊
Awesome teamwork guys
Hey Luke! Big fan! Keep up the great content! I have a suggestion for a video! You guys should make a video about your work belts and what you guys carry and all that good stuff! 😎
Excellent video guy's. Can you tell me what you would use on tinted windows to remove silicone or paint etc. Or for tinted windows on a post construction job.
Honestly imo I think they would be shot. I'd have to see them. But you wouldnt be able to use any Abrasives and any chemicals strong enough may damage the film.
If you could send photos maybe we could help.

Hey guys love the channel how would you recommend cleaning tinted windows I know your wife said don’t use abrasive’s, so just water?
Like a well oiled machine. 🤙🏼
Thank you man !
I just got a Ledge Eze. I have been using Ettore Pro Grip previously. Do you know if the Ledge Eze's clamp is meant to be a LOT tighter than the Pro Grip? I mean I find with the Pro Grip i can just snap the channels in so quick and easy, but with the Ledge Eze i have to sort of pry open the clamp with the edge of the channel first before sliding it in (I have tried loosening the nuts but no different). I just wonder if I have received a faulty Ledge Eze or maybe that's just how it's meant to be.
No, ours is the same. I have both handles and your right.
Not a huge deal I suppose, I think I'm just use to it.
Looks so perfect😊 Nice job!!!
i am interested in how to buy the squeegees with the replacement of the rubber and the terminal you set on the both sides of the end of the squeegees?
Can you show how you count and price your window project. You don’t have to be exact since we all know prices may vary depending on locations. To me that price seemed a bit low. That’s just me. Thanks for what you do sharing great insights.
For this home I did $8 per window. That is not including screens or sills. All they wanted was glass.
Hey Luke, we punctured our first window tint! Can you send us the clause you use for scratches?
How much would you charge for Window seals and tracks?
We charge 2.00 per sill. We have a playlist on quoting too if that helps!
Cleaning windows in the direct sun is a nightmare. Any time I've tried the water dries super quick and there are always streaks, then if you wipe with the cloth it almost sticks to the glass....horrible
Also, I've researched scratches in glass and they can happen when you run a blade across toughened panes which are made in factories with bad quality control. When they cut the glass and minute shards from the cutting are baked onto the glass during the toughening process (e.g. not cleaned properly between cutting and baking) - Then when the blade is passed over the pane, those shards are dragged through the surface scratching it. Where I come from, glass panes over 2 metres squared must be toughened, and ALL door glass. Which is why you might usually notice scratches only on larger panes. There may be other causes, but that's what I found
I've done post-construction cleans where there was concrete on the glass and a blade did no damage, but when I saw the stickers from certain glass companies, I knew to have poor quality, I'd always be cautious to tell the client that this glass will likely scratch if I run a blade across...and let them decide if they want to pay for the more time consuming concrete removal or live with scratches/concrete on their glass
I'm no expert, just some of what I've experienced
Great vid, can you make one on how you clean really dirty tinted windows?
If and when we come across that we will try. Sometimes it's hard. I like to film real world situations if possible but cant always film.
@@LukeTheWindowCleaner Word. I just hate leaving tinted windows so dirty looking because anything abrasive just wrecks it, wanna see if there's any tricks i'm missing!
thanks for the vid, You guys are OK :)
Awesome video love it
Thank you!!!😀
You guys are awesome. Thanks for sharing. I totally get anxiety pricing jobs. However all of my jobs are house cleaning vacation rentals. A client asked me to clean his windows inside and out. The windows do fold in so no ladder needed. However I am super nervous. He has 82 windows and 20 doors. I priced at 600 and he accepted. He said no ladders needed and he did not want us to use any. Any tips would be appreciated. Liked and subscribed. Also I already use dawn dish soap and clean microfiber towels. Once dried I buff them all. However this is an ocean front home. Yikes.
I live in an area where google maps lets me see the approximate amount of windows on the sides and backs of houses, it is not possible to see basement ones thought and I don
Reanna: "i tuck you in at night" 😂😂😂😂😂 love you guys
Do you use steel wool for both inside and outside on windows?
I wish I lived over the pond.
We do regular monthly cleans here in the uk.
Yes we only need 300 regular customers to have a business but most houses here I average £40 ph and can do most in under 30 minutes.
Would love to charge £400 for a house.
We don't have screens and don't clean tracks either.
Just splash n dash with the wfp.
Cuestión here, what happens when you run to a window with hard to remove water spots wheather inside ormout of the window . Do you take extra 5-10 min time with that specific window to remove n use extra compound material n try to getcrid of the water spots or hard saint chips or whatever or do you jus mclean the window n leave it as it us n move on ?
If you have screens that need to be taken out from the inside, on an exterior only clean, would you charge 1.25x or 1.5x for the extra work and having to go inside?
Hey Luke thanks for video. I bought your residential plus kit and am hoping to get a water fed system soon too! Anyway just wondering what that GPS system you mentioned in the video was. Thanks!
Awesome man! Hope that kit helps 😁
Which wfp system are you thinking about buying ?
That was a garmin. For the life of me I have no idea the model ..
@@LukeTheWindowCleaner I haven't done much research yet, but the Xero looks awesome, and seems to be extremely well received in the window community. I'm up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina near Asheville, and the water here is usually pumped from a well and under 100ppm. Not sure yet about city water. I will test it when I go to my next job. I want to purchase something that will allow our business to grow, so I want quality and future proofing. Any suggestions? Thanks. (www.KilgoreClean.com)
Thanks for the vid's, their great. So how do you clean a residential (close out) window's that have sash latches on the bottom. Do you have a vid showing how to do that? I hate those latches when it comes time to clean.
Thank you for all the great tips! Amazing work as always. By the way what size channel or or channels do you use most with residential? Thank you for all you do to make these amazing videos. -P
What solution do you use on your mop
@ a quick glance I would have priced that out at $585 on the high. Minimum $535.
Me and my wife are exactly like you folks. We are based out in Austin TX.
Love the vids. I've always wanted to do the you tube grind☝️👑
Luke I would like to speak with you to learn how to go about getting leasing offices if that will be okay with you let me know when you have time I know you all are crazy busy
How much soap to water ratio do you use?
Inside windows.. leaving this comment mid vid. But is that steel wool you're applying on the inside windows after you apply the mop while the window is still wet? Thanks.
That's a $1,000.00 job Luke 😂💙
Hey luke is that a 14 or 12 inch squegee that your wife is using on the very first window?
That is a 14 inch stainless steel ettore channel.
@@LukeTheWindowCleaner Thanks!
Ledge ez rocks lol.
Hell yeah!
Nice work. About 50 windows? How long did it take total?
I actually dont own a razor yet.. i feel like they have a very bad rep.. id rather just go to town with the steel wool and bronze pad. I know for sticker removal, it would be ideal, but otherwise i wouldn’t use it, i feel.
it was just ok
How long would a house like this take?
what was that ledge squeeze? was that the pulex alumimax?
The link is in the description 😁 the ettore ledge ez.
ledge ez is what i use 90% of the time. At first just for deep sills but then you get used to the angle and might as well just stick with it. works awesome.

Are you done on social media now? Just Patreon?
What kind of rag you were using their on 10:52
Scrim!
@@reannasantillan what do you mean scream is that actually the name of this rag? And if it is is it better than microfiber?
@@34789199 Unger scrim. That's the towel. It's way better than microfiber in my opinion.
@@reannasantillan what do you think of Norwex?
😎👍
Thanks 😎
Lol @21:41 🙊😆
I have "Rise n Grind" on my knuckles. lol. not really...
Does your GPS change your diaper as well????
Y'all are surgical!
You don't use ladders for stuff not main floor. Damn
A real sea sponge will eliminate all that toweling of the ledges...
We tried them! Great to have
Luke The Window Cleaner yea and they come in handy for cleaning screens and wetting cut up Windows....
