At Fresh Rinse of Belle Terre, our mission is to bring a sparkling shine to your windows using the best tools available. But have you ever wondered what those tools are and how they work? Let’s take a look at the standard tools we use every day when providing our professional window cleaning services.
1. Squeegee
The squeegee is one of the most essential tools in our arsenal. It has a long handle and a rubber blade that we use to remove water and cleaning solution from the glass. After applying the cleaning solution, we use the squeegee to wipe it away, leaving a streak-free finish.
2. Scrubber (or Washer)
Before we can use the squeegee, we need to scrub the dirt and grime off your windows. That’s where the scrubber comes in. It’s like a sponge on a handle that we dip into a bucket of soapy water and then use to wash the windows thoroughly.
3. Cleaning Solution
Our cleaning solution is specially formulated to break down dirt and grime while being gentle on your windows. It’s much more effective than regular soap and water, ensuring that your windows get as clean as possible without any damage.
4. Extension Pole
For those hard-to-reach windows, we use an extension pole. This tool allows us to attach our squeegee or scrubber to a long pole, so we can clean high windows without the need for ladders. It’s safer for us and ensures we can reach every part of your window.
5. Fish Scale and Microfiber Cloths
After we’ve squeegeed the windows, we use microfiber cloths to wipe down the edges and corners, ensuring no water is left behind. Microfiber cloths are great because they’re super absorbent and don’t leave any lint behind. Likewise, the fish scale cloths are similar, but they are similar to surgical towels and are used to detail spots that need a little extra attention or the stripper/squeegee couldn’t access on the first pass.
6. Ladder
When windows are really high up and an extension pole won’t do the trick, we rely on sturdy ladders (aluminum or fiberglass). Safety is a top priority, so we use ladders that are stable and secure, allowing us to clean windows on multi-story buildings with confidence.
7. Bucket
Of course, we need a bucket to hold our cleaning solution. Our buckets are specially designed to hold enough solution and are easy to carry around, making the cleaning process efficient.
8. Razor Scraper
For windows with stubborn dirt or paint spots, we use a razor scraper. This tool has a sharp blade that carefully scrapes away tough grime without scratching the glass.
9. Water-Fed Pole System
For large buildings, we use a water-fed pole system. This advanced tool has a brush at the end of a long pole, and purified water is pumped through the pole to the brush. The purified water doesn’t leave any spots or streaks, making it perfect for cleaning many windows quickly.
10. Safety Gear
Safety is always a priority, so we use gear like gloves, harnesses, and helmets when necessary. This ensures our team can clean your windows efficiently and safely.
