How I found: Recommended by
a neighbor
Work performed: I have him
clean the windows I can't reach,
inside and outside
Comments: Does a good job,
doesn't leave a mess, reasonable
price.
He cleaned our windows before we
moved in. I didn't ask him to
clean the windows in the garage
doors; they were a mess, and had
been splattered with polyurethane
from the painters. He cleaned
them -- scraped off the PU and made
them shine, no extra charge!
He just couldn't stand walking past
such dirty windows :)
