Time on Site

 

Typical domestic window and conservatory clean takes 1–3 hours for a small property; larger conservatories, heavy limescale or multi‑storey work can extend to half a day or require additional site setup such as scaffolding which may add a day or more

 

Questions to Ask Your Tradie

 

• Are you fully insured, including public liability and working‑at‑height cover?

• Have you cleaned conservatory roofs like mine and do you seal or treat failed units?

• What equipment will you use and will the job require scaffolding or a cherry picker?

• Will you remove and refit flyscreens and are there extra charges for that?

• How do you handle limescale or mould treatments and will that change the price?

• Do you provide a written quote and what are your payment and cancellation terms?

 

How to Avoid Surprises

 

• Provide clear parking near the property for the van and ladder access

• Move fragile items from window sills and clear a workspace inside the conservatory

• Tell the tradie about pets, gates or access restrictions

• Confirm availability of an outside tap and nearby power if needed

• Check whether scaffolding requires permission from a leaseholder, management company or local council

• Tell the tradie about any allergies or conservation glass to agree suitable cleaning products
