seriously, now is the time to get the pollen off of your glass and your frames. The nice yellow tint that everything in Memphis has in the spring might be pretty (if your crazy) but to me it means nasty glass that will not stay clean. Some people advocate waiting to get their windows cleaned. If you are a home owner, that is a good idea. If you are a commercial store front that is the worst idea.
Your windows are a reflection of your store. If the windows look horrible......well, you get the picture. We all remember walking into a waffle house and looking at the maple syrup little kid hand prints on the glass....nasty glass just doesn't encourage me to want to eat at a place. Of course, being in the window cleaning profession I am a bit biased, but I have noticed, from being in the kitchens of many, many restaurants, that the amount of care and attention the place gives to their windows is a very good indicator of how clean things are in the back of the house.
I remember early on in my window cleaning business doing a national chain restaurant (which I will not name here) that would only pay to get their windows cleaned once a month. Granted, they were filthy within three days but cleaning "wasn't in their budget." I remember going back into the kitchen to get some water for my bucket and looking at them prepare food and I realized just how "nasty" it was back there. I never ate there again nor at that particular chain. On the other hand, look at Houston's Restaurant...They windows are touched up daily. The floor is clean enough to eat off of and guess what, they kitchen....spotless. If the windows are clean, you can bet the kitchen is too.
Commercial accounts need their windows cleaned frequently. We do work in other sections of the the state and you would be amazed at how clean the windows are there. Everyone wants them done weekly because they love to be able to see out of their glass.
Home owners just wait until the pollen settles and give us a call. We will try to remove the allergies from your windows. Maybe we can all breath a little bit better after that.
