    Window Cleaning.

    I live on the 25th Level of an apartment block. How do I get my windows cleaned? Does anyone know of anyone who does this and what the cost would be? Do they have to put up scaffolding? Thanks in advance!!

    Do your windows open? If so, then just do it yourself with a long-handled spongee, or hire a part time helper to do it for you. Just make sure you or her take precautions (ie don't lean out too far, safety belt, etc.). It's no different than if you were on the 3rd floor of same building. Putting up scaffolding will cos you at least $10k.

    Just get one of these http://cleancommodity.en.hisupplier....ing-brush.html

    To be extra safe, try buying one that has a hole in the handle so you can tie it off just in-case you loose your grip and you dont want it falling down 25 floors and killing someone

    the cost less than $100, places like Park N Shop also sell em.

    Not scaffolding, but harnesses. It's not cheap.

    Terrifies me seeing grannie hanging out of the windows to clean them. But that's what people do here.

    Get one of those magnetic cleaners, you clamp on side to the inside of the glass and the other on the outside. The good ones will come with a strap for the outside one incase it falls off.
