Window Cleaning in Brixham

The Moore & Franks approach in Brixham

Brixham is a working fishing town, its painted cottages stacked steeply above the harbour and the newer housing perched on the hills behind. There's nowhere more exposed to sea air in Tor Bay, and the salt comes in thick off a blow, dulling glass and crusting frames on the harbourside properties especially. We clear it with pure water that rinses salt clean away and leaves windows spot-free, frames and sills included. Those tricky terraced upper windows on the slopes get reached safely from the ground. As a Devon family firm with twenty-five years' experience and £5m cover, we keep Brixham's glass bright against the worst of the weather.

Around the harbour, gull mess is as much of a problem as the salt. The quayside roofs, conservatory glass and upper windows below the wheeling birds get streaked and spotted in a way ordinary weather never manages, and it bakes on hard in the sun. Pure water off the pole softens and rinses it clear without anyone climbing onto a slick, steep roof. On the working quay it is a near-constant job, and one worth keeping on top of.

Out on its headland facing the open Channel, Brixham takes the weather with nothing in its way, and glass films over again quickly here. A lot of homes move off quarterly onto a six to eight weekly round to keep pace with it, tighter through the winter gales. We book the whole cycle ahead so it simply happens, and agree a fixed price for each visit rather than pricing every clean from scratch.

Higher up the hill, the newer homes around Wall Park and Sharkham carry conservatories and solar, and both wear the same salt film as the windows do. We take them on in the same visit, a conservatory roof priced by size between £50 + VAT and £90 + VAT and panels at £7 + VAT each. One stop covers the glass, the roof and the array together, which suits owners who would rather deal with one firm than three.
