The Dreadful Task Of Window Cleaning

Do you ever get amazed when you see the spectacular and sparking windows on high rise buildings? Well there is a big secret behind it and getting the perfect look isn’t a task for faint-hearted. These high rise buildings are not easy to build or maintain. Many lost their lives cleaning the windows for these commercial buildings so it is very essential to take appropriate care when doing the job.


 House windows on the other hand may not be that difficult to reach or be risky but it also requires a great amount of precaution. The task may look simpler visually but the cleaner has to maintain a balance and still be able to do the job satisfactorily. Window cleaning requires skills, experience, dedication and tools and all these are combined together to get best results. Only reputable cleaning companies make sure that their personal are fit and experienced to do the job safely. Intensive safety training are provided to create awareness and importance of safety because a human life is worth anything.
You may have often heard a lot of cases regarding cleaners getting injured while performing their job. This is because many cleaners do not take necessary care and often end up injuring themselves, in some cases death. Recent news showed a similar situation where a window cleaner was left dangling after he tumbled down the side of an apartment building while he was cleaning the windows.

 An emergency crew was called early in the morning to a report that a window cleaner was hanging upside down about five floors up at a high rise building. Witnesses said the rope snapped at the 76th and the cleaner fell, hitting the glass balustrade on the sixth level. The paramedics however reported that the man righted himself before rescuers arrived and was met at the sixth level by fire-fighters. The cleaner sustained injuries including serious lacerations to the right side of his body and legs and the skin on his arm was sliced back to nearly the bone, according to a witness. However, the police said that the man did not lose consciousness throughout the ordeal and was safely transported to a nearby hospital with no life-threatening injuries.
