Guides & advice
Straight answers to the questions homeowners and facilities managers ask us most about window cleaning, compliance and exterior care.
Why we write these
Useful answers, no sales pitch.
We get asked the same questions every week — how often windows really need cleaning, whether water-fed poles are as good as a squeegee, and what paperwork a school or facilities team should ask for before a contractor sets foot on site.
These guides answer them properly, based on our day-to-day work cleaning homes, schools, offices and industrial sites across Leicestershire. If your question isn’t covered, ask us and we’ll add it.

Do dirty solar panels lose power? When cleaning is worth it
Yes, but usually only a little in the UK. Rain keeps most roof panels clean; it's worth cleaning for bird mess, moss, flat panels or a drop in output.
