A local Dorset family who love clean windows

Why we swear by pure water window cleaning

Years back, like most window cleaners in Dorset, we used a bucket, a cloth and a ladder. The trouble is, soapy water leaves a residue, so windows can smear up again before long, and ladders are a faff, and frankly a bit dodgy up high. So we switched the whole lot over to pure water.

We filter all the muck and minerals out of the water until there is genuinely nothing left in it. That water lifts the dirt off the glass and then dries on its own with no marks whatsoever. It is gentler on your windows, it is better for the garden and the environment, and it means we can safely reach those awkward upstairs ones from right down on the ground. No ladders wobbling about, no traipsing through your house.

It is also brilliant for coastal homes around Bournemouth, Poole, Swanage and Weymouth, where all that sea salt that dries on the glass comes right off, and without soap residue left behind it takes longer to go grubby again.
