Gocardless

GoCardless - Window Cleaner in Dunfermline and Fife

Gocardless.com is a start-up company that allows professional window cleaning services to set up recurring payments with their bank account. It's free for the customer and easy for businesses to manage the process. 

GoCardless offers a number of options: one where you can sign up for an automatic payment plan through your bank account (which takes about three days). There are no fees associated with using GoCardless, but it does charge a small transaction fee per invoice paid by this method which is incurred by the vendor. The service is fully insured and offers the same protection as any other direct debit.

Another option with the service is to sign up for a regular subscription payment where the money is debited on a regular basis. Some professional window cleaners use this method to collect regular payments but due to the weather in the UK, this can mean cleaning due dates can be missed and I prefer to use a process that collects payment after the service is carried out.

A new instant payment service has been launched which gives an instant payment option, the signup process is the same however to collect instant payments a direct link is sent to the customer to authorize the payment prior to collection. This method is effective when collecting payment for things like cleaning gutters, solar panels cleaning, and other external cleaning jobs where instead of a regular payment it is a one-off charge for service.

Due to the simple process to sign up, process payments, and the safeguards in place Gocardless is quickly becoming a favored method with small businesses where they require regular payments. As Window Cleaner's in Dunfermline we initially started to use GoCardless back in 2020 as a response to the Covid-19 pandemic as a way to ensure the safety of our customers by introducing contactless payments.

Reasons to Clean Your Gutters

Dirty gutters can cause damp and structural damage to your home.

Gutter cleaning is an essential part of maintaining your home or business, but it is often overlooked. Simply because it is not something most pay attention to until they see a forest growing from their roof.

You should ideally have your gutters cleaned every 12 months, normally just before winter. In Scotland we are no strangers to rain, in fact, we get it nearly every day so it is essential to have your gutter system working as it should.

There are a few reasons why you need to clean your gutters: 

- A properly working gutter system will prevent dampness and water from finding their way into your property saving you from costly repairs.

- Mold and Mildew forming within your home or place of business can have a few effects, firstly it doesn't look great to anyone who sees it, and secondly or most importantly the particles can cause health issues when you breathe them in especially if you have an underlying condition like asthma.

Gutters are essential for your home. Firstly they keep water flowing away from the building, but gutters also keep homes and buildings safe from a wide range of problems caused by blocked or overflowing guttering. If gutters are blocked or poorly aligned this can lead to water entering your home and cause issues like dampness and if left to continue could cause structural damage to your property.

Keeping up with regular maintenance is crucial in order to prevent costly repairs later on down the line, so it's important that you know when to call a professional gutter cleaning company like us at Caledonia Window Cleaning. We offer a professional window cleaning service in Dunfermline and across Fife.

Traditional Window Cleaning in Fife

Traditional Window Cleaner Dunfermline Fife

Traditional window cleaning is a method by which glass is cleaned simply with soapy water and scrubber. As in the traditional way. Some Window cleaning companies use another method called a water-fed pole or a Purified water window cleaning system. However, traditional window cleaning has its own benefits which makes it still a popular option among many.

Suitable for Fragile Windows

In traditional window cleaning, you have more control over the procedure. You scrub and clean the windows with your hand. On the other hand, the pole-fed system reaches the window, keeping the operator at ground level.

This is not what you want for delicate glass windows. For cleaning old and fragile windows with care, the traditional method is the best.

Heavily Stained Windows

The water-fed system uses a stream of distilled water and scrubbing. It may be good for mildly dusty windows.

But if your window is very dirty and heavily stained, it would take vigorous cleaning that only traditional face to glass cleaning can provide.

Advanced window cleaning methods require various tools that are prone to malfunction. Where traditional window cleaning has no such issues.
