As a homeowner, the last thing you want is to hire a company to do a job for you, and then because of their inexperience or lack of respect for your property they cause damage to your home.

At Sunrise Window Cleaning we understand that you just want the job done right and with no hassles.

That is why we endevour to  protect your home from any damage while we are there.

These are not “rocket science” ideas, just a few common sense steps that protect your home while we are there.

For instance all our ladders have ladder bumpers on the end of them.  This is so that when we lean our ladder against your home there is a soft cushion of foam that will not scratch  chip, dent, or cause any damage to the siding of your home.

Additionally  when we need to access a window from a roof, we install ladder standoffs on the ladder.  This is so the ladder is not sitting on the eavestrough.  When a technician climbs the ladder without standoffs it WILL scratch the paint, but worse it will often dent or crush the eavestrough.  That is why it is our company policy to use ladder standoff each and every time we need to get on the roof.

Here is a picture of the ladders setup for cleaning windows. Note the protective measures taken.

Need To Know #1: Is the company you are considering fully insured with Liability Insurance and in good standing with WSIB?

Make sure that the company you decide to hire is fully insured with an adequate amount of liability and property damage insurance and is also registered with WSIB (Workers Safety & Insurance Board). Cleaning windows and related products does carry an element of risk so make sure that you are protected. Making sure that the company you choose for window cleaning services is fully and properly insured, is one step to making sure that you will be involved with a legal and professional company. Both insurances are very costly and MANY companies do not carry insurance. If you hire them, they are YOUR responsibility and potential liability. Sunrise Window Cleaningcarries $2 million liability insurance with the Economical Insurance of Canada and we are fully insured by WSIB. Give us a call at 905-616-4788 or visit our website at www.sunrsewindowcleaning.ca

Need To Know #2: Does the company specialize in window cleaning?

Look for a company that specializes in window cleaning to ensure that you will get the quality work you deserve. Often a company that focuses on just one area of the home improvement industry will be able to provide a more specialized service. It only makes sense that a company who specializes in window cleaning will be able togive a superior job due to specialized equipment and training. Be careful of companies offering a variety of services when choosing your window cleanning company. Hiring a student to clean your windows is akin to asking the plumber to do your electrical work! At Sunrise window cleaning Company, we specialize in cleaning windows! 

Need To Know #3: Does the company sub-contract out their work to other companies?

A major downfall of many companies who intend well but fallshort on delivery is subcontracting. This is when a company hires or “farms out” part or all of your work to a completely different person or company. The vision and quality of the company you choose to hire is usually not reflected by a sub-contractor. This results in the home owner/property owner not getting the quality and service that he/she deserves. Another draw back to subcontracting is that if you need the company to come back and repair something, it is difficult to get the original company back to fix the problem! At Sunrise Window Cleaning you have our promise that we NEVER sub-contract work to another company. We do ALL of our own work. 

Need To Know #4: Does the company that you are considering have a strong workmanship warranty?

Be sure that the company you choose offers a strong workmanship warranty. Many companies advertise that they have a warranty, but be sure that it is a workmanship warranty and not just a manufacturer’s warranty. A
lot of companies also may have a workmanship warranty but it may be a very weak one. Choose a company that is confident in the skills of their professional window cleaners and be sure that the company can back their work with a strong workmanship warranty. Sunrie Window cleaning offers a full 7 day warranty against any work defects! That’s the best in the business!

Need To Know#5: How long has the company been in business?

It is important to make sure that the company you choose to your windows has been in business long enough to prove themselves and actually be able to HONESTLY make their claims. Do your homework and find out how long the window cleaning  company you are considering has been in business to help ensure they have a basis for these claims and that they have experience in the window cleaning  industry. You should look for an window cleaning company with at least a 4-year history as many companies go out of business within their first 2 years of operation! Sunrise Window Cleaning passes this test  with flying colours!  We have been in business in the Oakville, Mississauga, Burlington area for over 20 years

Need To Know #6: Does the Window Cleaning company have a record of successful operations and happy customers?

Your Window Cleaning company should be able to provide you with a list of references upon your request. If they have happy customers, in all likelihood, you will be one of them! They should also be able to point you to some of their previous work so you can go see it for yourself. If they can’t provide you with this it might be best to look for another company!. Much of The sunrise window cleaning  work comes from referral work from happy customers. That’s another reason to consider having us do your work!

Need To Know #7: Do they use and provide you with a professional estimate and invoices?

The company you choose should provide you with these important documents. On each of these documents you should insure that all company information is professionally printed and not hand written. A professional and legal company will have these for you. Sunrise Window Cleaning provides you with a professionally printed estimate that has our HST number printed on the form.

Need To Know #8: Does the company provide you with a detailed estimate that fully indicates the extent of the work that will be done?

Many companies keep their estimates vague and do not provide detailed estimates. Make sure you know how many windows are going to be cleaned on your house. You do not want to be surprised in the end with a much higher than quoted cost! Sunrise Window Cleaning provides very detailed invoices. We believe it is important to be upfront and honest. In the end, our price is our price!

Need To Know #9: Does the company provide you with an HST number (Business number)?

All legitimate companies must be registered with the Government and collect and submit HST. If they cannot provide you with this number, THEY ARE NOT A LEGITIMATE COMPANY!!!!!!

Need To Know #10: Is the company using quality window cleaning methods?

Be sure that the company you hire is using quality window cleaning methods. Some companies who value saving a few dollars over providing high quality work, will resort to using gimicky methods to cleaning your windows.  Windex, and paper towels, or pressure washing the windows.  At sunrise window cleaning we use traditional methods of a squeegee and mop, and the more advanced method of a waterfed pole.

This, of course, is always one of the first questions a homeowner has when starting the research process for a window cleaning Oakville, Mississauga, Burlington company. The problem with answering this question, is that most window cleaning cost company’s pricing structures are vastly different so it can be very tough for one to truly know what the price is to get your windows cleaned. Notwithstanding, I’ll do my best here to give you some realistic price ranges as to what most people will spend. (And remember, these prices are AVERAGE, and can vary drastically depending on the company,  etc, etc)

Small House Window Cleaning (approximately 1800 sqf  or less): Exterior  $125  Interior $125

Medium House Window Cleaning (approximately 2500 sqf  or less): Exterior  $150  Interior $150

Large House Window Cleaning (approximately 3500 sqf  or less): Exterior  $180  Interior $180

Extra Large House Window Cleaning (approximately over 3500 sqf): Exterior  $220  Interior $220

This typically includes: a 7 step window cleaning method

Rip-Off #1: Unbelievably Low Price. To some degree, all of us are attracted to low price because we want to work within a budget. But some contractors use low pressure washing prices as the bait in order to land a job. They are hoping you are basing your buying decision on price alone and if they are the cheapest, they will get the job.

Unfortunately once they get the job they have to take shortcuts in order to make a profit. Professional power washing is not as cheap as some unethical power washers would like you to believe. Make sure you are paying for the level of quality you expect.

Rip-Off #2: Crafty Claims Like: Specializing in Hot Water Washing . You may read this in ads, or hear this from contractors. Whether a contractor uses hot water or cold water and the right chemicals, the end result is the same. Hot water does speed up the cleaning process in commercial and industrial uses but what does it mean to the homeowner?

The truth is hot water has no benefit and shouldn’t be used in residential services. It can warp vinyl siding, damage wood and asphalt shingles, and can be detrimental to plants and shrubbery. Crafty claims like this are nothing more than a desperate attempt of trickery to gain your business.

Rip-Off #3: Outdated Beliefs: “Just Power Wash the Deck and Use an Expensive Sealer.” Many people believe that using an expensive sealer will make all the difference.

The fact is: the number one reason a sealer fails, no matter how much it cost, is because the wood is not prepared properly. Wood goes through many stages while being cleaned. When using the proper cleaner the wood turns very dark, as the ph level goes up. A neutralizing process is necessary to lower the wood to a more acidic level, so the sealer will adhere properly.

With the wood prepared properly, it can then be sealed with a contractor grade sealer. If an old sealer is present, the deck will need stripped so the new sealer can adhere to the wood properly. This stripping process is only done properly using a stripping agent, NOT high water pressure.

Obviously, each contractor will be biased toward his own method. You should look to what wood professionals say. There are wood restoration classes that contractors can take to become certified, check to see if the contractor you are considering is certified.

Rip-Off #4: Rip-Off #4: Offering To Wash Anything and Everything. Contractors wash many different things, from houses to tractors and from decks to parking lots. A company offering to wash almost anything may look impressive but is a sign of not being established.

There are a lot of fly by night companies that come and go, who will offer to wash anything for a dollar, they never really get good at one thing. Make sure you hire a contractor that specializes in just a handful of the services you are interested in.
