City grime on the glass, and the risk is getting to it
Philadelphia air leaves a film on glass: road grime, pollen and rain spotting that builds a little more every week. On a storefront you see it at eye level. On a tower you see it from the sidewalk, and no ladder reaches it.
The soap is the easy part. The hard part is putting a person at the glass safely, which is why Premier Window Cleaning, LLC keeps its crew in-house and union trained, never subcontracted, and runs every project to OSHA, ANSI I-14 and IWCA standards whatever the size of the job.
Inspection first, then pole, rope, stage or lift
Every commercial job starts with an on-site inspection and a safety assessment. That visit decides the method. Ground-level glass is done with water-fed pole systems that give us reach and precision without leaving the sidewalk. Taller buildings get certified high-rise equipment: rope descent, swing stage or lift.
We never work from anchors that have not been inspected and certified. Our sister company, Premier Building Anchors, handles the inspection, testing and certification: a visual check every year and a load test every 10 years, or sooner after structural or roof changes.
On the street side we set barricades and signage. When wind picks up, lightning is in the forecast or ice is on the ledge, the work stops and we reschedule. Hospitals and universities have had us working around occupied floors, so the crew knows how to stay quiet and out of the way.
The walk-through, and how often the glass needs us
When the work is done we walk the building and check the glass with you before we call it finished. Screens are cleaned too, with a dedicated screen solution. If anything is not right, we come back and make it right, and the job is backed by a 100% satisfaction, money-back guarantee.
Most commercial buildings book two to four cleanings a year, and high-visibility buildings usually need more. Estimates are free and priced by building height, access method, frequency and scope. Call (267) 534-5198 with the address and we will set a time to inspect.
