It's the most common complaint in this trade, and it's also the easiest thing in the world to fix. Ring me and you'll get me. Send a photo and you'll get a price, usually the same day.

What we clean
Not sure what you need? Send a photo. You'll get a straight answer, and if it's not something I do, I'll say so.
Pure water and a water-fed pole
Purified water and a pole from the ground. No ladders leaning on your house, no boots in the borders, and no need for you to be in.
The frames, the sills and the doors get done as part of the job. Not as an extra, not if you ask nicely. As part of the job. Half the reason windows look grubby a fortnight later is that nobody touched the frames.
Cleared and checked
Moss, needles and the sludge that builds up out of sight. Cleared out, flushed through, and checked that it's actually running.
Whole roofline
The white boards under the roofline that go green and streaky. Brought back to white without anyone climbing on your roof.
Pure water, no residue
A dirty panel makes less power, because anything sitting on the glass shades the cells underneath. Cleaned with purified water so there's nothing left behind to shade them.
Regular rounds
Shops, offices and holiday lets. Set rounds, invoiced monthly, and done early enough that I'm gone before you open.
How it works
01 / Get in touch
Ring, fill in the form, or send a photo. You'll hear back the same day, most days. If I can't help, I'll tell you that too rather than leave you hanging.
02 / Agree the price
You get a price before anything happens. If you don't fancy it, that's genuinely fine and nobody will ring you back to talk you into it.
03 / Have a look
Come and have a proper look when it's done. If something's not right, it gets put right. That's what the guarantee means.

About Phil
I spent years as a time-served electrician. Same standards, different kit.
I'm Phil Graham. I moved up to Aboyne after a working lifetime on the tools, and I've swapped the test meter for a pole and a tank of purified water. What hasn't changed is how I work: turn up when I say I will, do the job properly, and answer the phone when it rings.
It's me and the van. The bloke who quotes it is the bloke who does it, and he's the one you ring if it's not right.
Licensed with Aberdeenshire Council, police-checked as part of getting it, and covered by £2 million of public liability insurance, twice what the licence actually asks for.

What people say
They're on Google, they're from real customers round Deeside, and I'd rather you read them there than take my word for it here.
Where I work
Not on the list? Ask anyway. If it's on Deeside, it's probably a yes.
Before you call
In Scotland they have to be. Under the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 every window cleaner needs a licence from their local council, employed or self-employed, no exceptions. Getting one means a police check, because the job puts you round the back of people's houses looking in. I'm licensed with Aberdeenshire Council and I carry it. Ask to see it. Ask whoever else quotes you to see theirs, as well.
Because they're meant to be. The water in the tank has had everything taken out of it, so when it dries there's nothing left behind to make a spot or a streak. Ordinary tap water would leave marks, and that's what dries on and makes them look worse than when you started. Leave them be and they'll dry clear on their own. Whatever you do, don't wipe them with a cloth.
Frames, sills and doors, every time, as part of the price. It's not an add-on. There's not much point having clean glass sat in a green frame.
No. It's all done from outside, so as long as there's access round the house you can be at work, out, or anywhere else. Gates unlocked and dogs in is all I ask.
Most houses round here settle into every four to eight weeks. Spring is the worst of it with the pine pollen, and autumn brings the leaf muck. Those are the two times people notice the difference most.
Yes, and more than people expect. Panels work on light hitting the cells, so anything sitting on the glass is shading them: dust, pollen, bird muck, moss creeping in from the frame edge. The panels are also at an angle and never get walked past, so nobody notices how bad they've got.
Say so and it gets put right, no argument and no charge for going back. That's what the satisfaction guarantee is for.
