    Default window cleaner ?

    hi there

    wondered if anyone could advise of a window cleaner that covers the castletown area?

    have been told there is not one actually in castletown but hopefully there is one that covers the village ?

    many thanks

    There is one that comes out to Castletown as I have seen him in my street. I don't know who he is but I will ask my neighbour for his number and pass it on to you

    That is the first window cleaner that I have seen with a website, I had no idea the job was so scientific.

    I did have a belly laugh when I clicked on the "Portfolio & Testimonials"tab though.

    I just love optimism.

    I'm still looking for a window cleaner as well. One didn't turn up, I waited all day for him and one came. Another one came when I was out but I had someone in the house doing a job for me who said he was 20 mins and just skoooshed the windows with water and left. If anyone wants to know which ones it was PM me!

    no....he niver did ma windows but he said he will do them soon. ah guess thurs howp efter all!!

    he said he wisna sure which ones wis mine, so ah let him off...it can be confusin
    telt him i wanted a reduction as i did one masel but he didna really take me on.

    he did say it wid cost me 7 kwid, which i thinks alrite for 'e amount o' windows i hev.
