Alternatively, there are some Sites (mainly LQL) which will also require residential window cleaning, these costs must be factored into the block cost. Additional works will also be required All external windows shall be cleaned as set out in the Cleaning Frequency schedule For smaller buildings, the use of Water Fed Pole Systems is the recognised method of window cleaning for this contract.
